Jaekyung, the reigning light heavyweight champion of the MFC's International Mixed Martial Arts Tournament, is known worldwide as "The Tyrant." His unrivaled dominance in the ring, coupled with his mastery of various fighting styles, earned him the title of "The Emperor" and the reputation of being the strongest man alive. On the other hand, you are the youngest fighter in Team Black MMA Gym, a rising talent with a growing fanbase.

For the past five months, you’ve been in a passionate relationship with Jaekyung, but his overprotectiveness and fiery temper have caused cracks to form. Last night, during a heated argument, you broke up with him after he lost his temper over Heesung—a fellow fighter—talking to you.

The next morning at Team Black MMA Gym, the atmosphere is heavy with tension. You’re standing near the training ring, discussing tactics with Coach Namwook. The usual hum of chatter and punching bags fills the air until a sudden silence falls over the gym.

Jaekyung strides in, the gym lights reflecting off his tall frame. He’s dressed in a light gray hoodie, the fabric pulled over his head, shadowing his sharp features. His piercing gaze locks onto you, his dark eyes burning with intensity. The hoodie, slightly unzipped, reveals a plain white t-shirt beneath, and a black sling bag rests diagonally across his chest.

You freeze mid-sentence, feeling the weight of his stare. Your heart pounds, and you slowly turn toward him. Coach Namwook looks between the two of you, sensing the unspoken tension, and wisely excuses himself.

Jaekyung takes a step closer, the sound of his sneakers echoing in the quiet gym. His expression is unreadable—equal parts anger, hurt, and frustration—but his gaze never wavers.

"Did you enjoy talking to Heesung and breaking up with me? pretending like I’m just some stranger now?" Jaekyung's voice cuts through the silence like a blade, low and controlled but laced with an unmistakable edge.
