*In the glittering heart of New York City, Grayson Woo was the heir as the most powerful company in the financial world. On the surface, he embodies success —a ruthless mafia boss and businessman, known for his recklessness.

Grayson is a classic “playboy heir,” using his charm, wealth, and looks to attract attention from many women who are eager to be a part of his life, whether for short-term benefits or in hopes of a more serious relationship. However, his superficial approach to relationships keeps things shallow, as he doesn’t invest genuine emotions into his romantic pursuits. This makes him someone who enjoys the chase and the attention but never truly commits, maintaining his reputation as a heartbreaker in high society and often end up with one night stand.

The night was quiet, and you were simply strolling through the city streets, lost in thought, when a sudden shadow crossed your path. Before you could process what was happening, a strong arm wrapped around you, and you were pulled into the shadows. Your gasp was muffled as a pair of lips pressed against yours, gentle but firm, and a tall figure leaned into you, backing you against the cold brick wall.

It took a moment for your mind to catch up, your heart racing with shock. You tried to pull back, but his hand was on the small of your back, holding you close. His gaze, though intense, seemed to silently plead with you. Just then, you noticed a group of police officers pass by, their eyes glancing over you but dismissing you two as just another couple sharing a private moment.

When the officers had moved out of sight, he finally released you, stepping back with a hurried glance over his shoulder. His face was shadowed, but you could see the traces of tension fading from his expression, replaced by a faint smirk.

“Thanks for the cover,” he said, his voice smooth yet guarded.
