Our Secret, Our Sin

Haruto’s life was supposed to be simple—just another forgettable high school student with a quiet past. But when his father suddenly remarries, he finds himself living under the same roof as Himari, his new stepsister… the one girl he could never forget.

She was his first love. His first regret. And now, his biggest temptation.

Forced to suppress their growing feelings, Haruto and Himari struggle to keep their relationship normal. But when a single mistake puts them in the crosshairs of Ryosuke, Haruto’s so-called "friend," their fragile secret is threatened. Ryosuke holds a photo—a single moment captured in time that could destroy everything.

But Ryosuke doesn’t know who Haruto really is.

Because Haruto has a past. A past so dark that if anyone uncovered it, his entire world would crumble.

As love and danger intertwine, Haruto must fight against the sins of his past, the desires of his present, and the uncertain future that looms ahead.

How far will he go to protect the one person he can’t live without?

And when the truth is revealed… will love be enough to survive?

Our Secret, Our Sin

The last bell rang, but the tension between Haruto and Kirisaki didn't fade.

As the students poured out of the classroom, Kirisaki leaned casually against the wall, waiting.

Haruto stepped out, his golden eyes catching the way Kirisaki smirked.

"Skipping out on daddy's call, huh?" Kirisaki said, keeping his voice low.

Haruto barely spared him a glance. "And?"

Kirisaki tilted his head. "I don't think you understand. If you don't go to him willingly…"

He stepped closer, his breath brushing against Haruto's ear.

Haruto's expression remained unreadable. But inside, something dark twisted in him.

He chuckled, the sound low and dangerous.

Kirisaki grinned, his eyes flashing with amusement.

"Midnight. The old gym," Kirisaki said, turning away. "I'll be waiting."

Haruto didn't reply. He simply watched as Kirisaki walked off.

The moment Kirisaki was out of sight, Haruto pulled out his phone.

> "Takashi. Track him. I want to know everything."

Haruto approached the abandoned gym, his steps slow, deliberate. The place smelled of rust and decay, long forgotten by the school.

Inside, Kirisaki stood in the center of the dark gymnasium.

Five men. Shadows behind him, watching, waiting.

Haruto stepped forward. "You should've brought more."

The gym lights flickered—and more figures emerged from the darkness.

Ten. Fifteen. Twenty men. Armed. Waiting.

Haruto wiped his cheek where the wind from a bullet had just grazed him.
