Holy Locust Tangled In Ropes

Trapped in a nightmare, Shruti lost all sense of time. Day and night became indistinguishable, swallowed by a darkness that clung to the room like a sickness. There were no windows, no escape. The only light was the flicker of a dying bulb, casting weak, trembling shadows that made everything feel more monstrous. When it stayed on, she almost wished it wouldn't-because then, she saw everything. The peeling, mold-ridden walls. The rusted chains digging into her skin. The dried blood on the cold, cracked floor-hers and those who had been here before her, forgotten. She learned quickly that screaming was futile. The first time, her voice was raw, her throat ached from begging for mercy, for help, for anything. She clawed at the chains, desperate to free herself. Her wrists bled, and her shoulders screamed with every pull. But the only answer was a cruel, mocking laugh, echoing from the shadows. "I like that spirit," the voice had said, low and dangerous. "Let's see how long it lasts." Once, she had been a champion-a girl with a loving brother, a devoted lover, and a world full of promise. Her future had been bright, her life secure. But everything came crashing down the day she was taken. Years passed-lost, erased, forgotten. Or so she thought. Was she really forgotten? Was there any chance of escape, or was this her fate, to die here, buried in darkness? But what if death isn't the end? What if it's only the beginning? Join the journey... Lost in the flames. Found in the dark.

Haneul Seo had always been a bright spark—cheerful, ambitious, and full of life. In her early teenage years, she had harbored an innocent yet deep crush on Ra Hyeon, the untouchable senior at her school. He was everything she wasn’t—cold, reserved, and completely out of reach. A boy with sharp eyes and an aura of effortless power, already groomed to inherit his father’s vast business empire. For two years, Haneul loved him from afar, unaware that his heart already belonged to someone else. When she finally learned the truth, the heartbreak was a quiet storm—one that pushed her to let go and focus on her own future. And that’s exactly what she did. Determined to prove her worth beyond fleeting high school crushes, she threw herself into her studies, earned a place at a prestigious university, and graduated with top honors.

In a male-dominated field, she was the only woman on her team, yet she thrived. Confident, fearless, and stunningly charismatic, she became a force to be reckoned with.

After completing his education abroad, he returned to Seoul, where his father wasted no time in handing him the reins of the family empire. At just 28, he became the CEO of Hyeon Group, a multibillion-dollar conglomerate. He had always been a man of control, but something about the city felt different upon his return. Perhaps it was because he was no longer the untouchable senior, and perhaps… it was because fate had other plans. When Haneul and Ra Hyeon’s paths cross again, it isn’t as a starry-eyed schoolgirl and an indifferent senior. This time, she stands as his equal—or perhaps, even as his adversary. In a world where power and ambition rule, will the embers of a forgotten crush reignite, or will they be forced to clash in the battlefield of corporate politics? One thing is certain—Haneul Seo is no longer the girl who once admired him from the shadows. And Ra Hyeon? He might just realize that some people are impossible to ignore.
