Ashes and Arrangements

This isn’t your typical romance.

This is a story soaked in blood and betrayal—where love is a liability, and the past is a monster that never sleeps.



It’s a war in disguise.



Eight years ago, Song Haseul watched her mother die.

Not by accident—by design.



Now, she’s back in Seoul with one mission:

Find the killer. Bury the name. Burn the empire.



By day, she’s Lee Haseul, a ghost in a second-year school uniform.

By blood, Ms. Song—heir to a corporate throne.

By night, she’s Helena, the masked queen of the Black Panther Syndicate.



A shadow. A myth. A threat whispered in the city’s darkest corners.



“No one suspects her. That’s what makes her dangerous.”



But she’s not the only monster in the dark.



The Red Dragons have ruled Seoul for decades—

And the seven Kim brothers in the inner circle don’t plan to surrender.



They think this is about territory.

They’re wrong.



This is personal.

And it’s only just begun.

Slow-burn romance. No mercy. Just war.

Found family vs blood ties.

A queen vs seven kings-in-the-making.



“Push your luck, and we’ll erase your bloodline like you never existed.”

“Some wounds never heal—they just learn to bleed quieter.”



If you’re here for just love, leave.

If you’re here for scars, secrets, and silent wars—

Welcome to the fire.
