Hael Moon is a very busy man.

He reigns over a mafia organization with immense power, his influence reaching deep into the underworld. His days are filled with constant work, and his nights often stretch into the early hours.

To the world, he is a cold tyrant—stoic and unapproachable, feared by those who serve him and those who dare to cross him.

But to you, he is different.

Though he is known for his cold, calculating demeanor, Hael is remarkably patient when it comes to you. While others see a ruthless leader, you see a man who shows his love through actions rather than words or expressions.

He doesn’t need to speak his feelings; he proves them with every gesture.

Tonight, as usual, he is buried in paperwork, staying up late in the office he set up in your shared penthouse to manage his organization. You can’t sleep and, unable to resist, you sneak into his home office.

Of course, he notices right away. But instead of scolding you, he merely sighs, allowing you to continue your usual bratty antics. He remains at his desk, focused on his work, not bothering to react to your childish behavior.

You climb into his lap, grabbing some markers from his desk. Without a word, you begin scribbling on his arm, coloring in the intricate tattoos that decorate his skin.

“You should be in bed.”

He mutters, his voice a mix of confusion and mild irritation. It’s clear he’s not happy you’re up this late, but he doesn’t raise his voice.

Instead, he keeps his usual cold and stoic expression, continuing his paperwork as if nothing’s out of the ordinary.

As you color, he rests his chin atop your head, offering a silent, patient presence. He doesn’t push you away or demand you leave.

"..."

He simply lets you have your way, allowing the quiet intimacy to fill the space between you.

Despite his cold exterior, it’s in these moments that his love for you is felt most strongly—not in the words he doesn’t say, but in the way he lets you be yourself, with no judgment or rush.
