There is no guaranteed knife defense. In knife fights, outcome always favors the blade. Knowledge and skill will increase the person's odds of surviving but it won't overwhelm the defender. So what could be the ending of Minghao and Hoshi's fight?
Win and lose are meaningless terms. It's always end with death. If one person is more skilled, then the other one dies. But if both parties are equally skilled, then both could perish.
As HongYoonChoi's asssasin, Minghao did kill several people in the past. He was known for his speed that even matched Jeonghan's skill in handling blades. He knows the vital points in human body for his target's quick demise. On the other side, Hoshi's fighting technique was never revealed before.
Some might think, ‘Why settle for knives when all you need is gun?'
It could be true depending on the tueller drills of twenty-one-foot rule. But gun is not the get-out-of-knife-fight-free cards t
Jeonghan's POV Joshua replied that he'll come together with the detective and gave no further instruction regarding to this guy beside me. "Why are you so slow? We should run back! Quickly!" The minion complained. "Wait a minute. Let me clean this first," I answered while wiping the blood stain on my hands. Even a crazy guy like me knows the protocol of do's and don’ts after ruthless fight. From my palm to the tip of my fingertips, I chafed every single trace of my sins. "You don't understand!" The police guy, who saw my murders, shouted at the top of his lungs. I did collect his gun and his phone, just in case he'll have a change of mind. But only fool will think he's a foe while looking into his eyes. He saw me killed multiple men yet no guilt was written on his face. Rather, he was too obsess in saving the woman I left in my car. "What made you so pumped up?" I asked him. "I heard that the people who attack
Sparks glistened at Minnie's eyes when she saw her father came back. She flew towards him, clasping her hands together. "What happened, dad? Did you put a good word about me? Will they end their relationship?" Minnie was Celine's high school classmate, and digging up about their past will never be a good idea; for they only have bad memories from each other. One of those wicked fates is Minnie's hobby of stealing good things revolve around Celine. She just couldn't stand that someone with lowly origin has power to attract luck and even her first love with less effort. So, this time, when she met Celine's boyfriend during the barbeque party, she set another goal - it is to steal Jeonghan. 'Whynot? He's handsome, rich and hot. I am worthy enough than that lowly b*tch.'Minnie believes. But her greedy dream crumbled when she saw his father's hardened expression. The old man sat on the sofa with a groan before he frowned and shook his head.
Wonwoo'sPOV "Sis, faster!" "Haaaaa~" "Faster! Argh!" "H-Hey W-Wonwoo. Ahhhh~" "Oh my gosh. Sis you're getting slower." Celine placed her hands on her knees. Sweat ran down on her face as she glared at me. "Of course! I've been running for ten times! Can I..." She gulped for a moment. "...rest for a minute?" she requested. But I quickly declined while holding the timer. "No way. You only have few hours before you'll go to your coffee shop. We cannot waste time, my dearest sister." "Argh," she groaned. Joshua asked me to train her so she could defend herself in the future. So today is the first day of her heinous sessions. It reminds me of the past, when I was teaching Almond. Celine and Almond both love to complain but the only difference is that I was always get beaten in the end by the hand of the second heir's sister.ThatAmazona. "I... though
The bakeshop that became famous because of their delicious cheese bread, just started their shop today. Tons of apartment were built at the Paju street, but today, there's only few small houses scattered perpendicularly along the road. It was as if the time reversed years ago when Kole was walking down their neighborhood from school. Tanned skin, rigid small eyes, straight nose and tall; she's the most beautiful volleyball player at her sports club. Busy at sports activities, she always goes to practice every Saturday. But today, practice was cancelled so she's on her way home. [Old sis Celine, I found your necklace at the...] Kole was typing a text to her brother's best friend. However, she stopped in the middle of typing and erased the words in her message box. "My brother and Celine are probably together," she thought. Ever since, Kole knew her brother's feelings for Celine. And she wasn't against of it! Instead, Kole wanted them to end up toge
Third Person's POV An unfamiliar feeling grew when Joshua entered the Hong residence. He was sure before that there won't be a time when he can come to this place without his fear. His childhood trauma was the reason why he left this place as well as his father. However, each step he took filtered his dread. If only he knew his father's intention at the beginning, then he doesn't have to waste fruitless years of loathing and trembling in front of the organization's leader. Great atonement hit him like a bullet. Now he's here to erase bad memories of the past. He is the new leader, and that's what living in this house means. For him to survive, he needs to be a strong... no... stronger than Harvhey. And moving on is the first step. "We tidied your room, master," a maid reported in front of his old room. Joshua looked at the door with lukewarm gape. He has the emotion of someone who wanted to eat ice cream but after buying one,
White cottons drifted slowly across the sky. As Mingyu watched the clouds above, he remembered the old Motown verse:"I've got sunshine on a cloudy day." 'Peeep!'loud horn whooped. Realizing it wasn't the time to enjoy the morning sky in the middle of the road, Mingyu gradually lifted his foot from the brake; moving forward in a slow gait to fill the limited space in the urban way. Driving in the city involves variety of complex situations: you have to deal with lots of cars, bicyclists, buses, pedestrians and one-way street. So, if you don't pay attention, accidents might occur.Mingyu knew it very well. He knows he shouldn't think of anything else while driving. But... [It's not me! This necklace isn't mine! And I don't know whoever owned this! I don't know!] When he visited his sister this early morning at Joshua's penthouse, she shouted those words while clutching her hand around the silver jewel
Celine's POV "Brother." Other sounds muted. The wordbrotherechoed in my ear, penetrating my inner soul. I wrapped my hand around my throat where an eruption of boiling lava took place. It's throbbing, as well as my head. Dizziness conquered me, hurt me, that tears swelled in the corner of my eyes. 'Why? Why did I say that word when I met this person in front of me?' "Oh yeah. I'm probably older than you, miss. So, you can call me brother," he spoke then smiled. As if my feet were shackled together on the ground, I almost trip myself. Fortunately, someone held me closer. I looked up while breathing heavily then saw Minghao's grimace. "Are you okay?" I shook my head then shut my eyes. "I'm sorry, sir," Minghao spoke to the man. "Other staff will assist you. And..." His voice is fading. I couldn't clearly hear what he said next. Soon, I found myself sitting inside my
Steam scattered like thin clouds. Jeonghan exited the bathroom after soaking into the tub, filled with water and rose petals. With only a white robe and boxers underneath, he collapsed on his bed with a grunt. "Ahhhhh." He must avoid sleeping with wet hair if he doesn't want to ruin his morning with severe headaches, so he thought of standing up again. Aside from that, he shouldn't neglect his skincare routine. He tilted his head towards the bottles of skincare products on the table. They aren't allowed to speak, but in his ears, they're saying hello. Even so, Jeonghan didn't budge from his bed. "I'm already pretty." His lips protrude acutely. He rolled sideward, and now his bare chest was resting against the firm mattress. Then he raised his feet, putting all the weight underneath his bended knees. Next, the back of his hands supported his chin while his elbows rested above the bed. "What's the point?" he whispered. "Pretty or not, she won't look at me the way I wan

Did she receive the flower that I sent to her?” Seungkwan asked. “Does she has plan this weekend?” Hoshi inquired. “Did you tell her that uncle Dokyeom misses her so much?” Dokyeom interrogated. The young boy crossed his arms while looking at the three grown up who are acting like kids.

Inside the small, windowless room with a brick-walled, the old woman, Kelly, is sitting on the ground with handcuffs around her wrinkled wrist. Her apathetic eyes went to the steel door in front which is equip with locks and bolts. The place is cold. Each breath slipped from her dried lips feels like there’s a frosting of white that blankets her; air thicken with the stench of her own breath. Cold and clammy, her hands and feet numb with the damp, like she’s been wrapped went sheets for long days. Her lifeless eyes roamed around the jail cell where soon could be her grave.

She was mad to hear him saying thank you as if she was only forced to be by his side. “I’ll wait for the day when you can finally let me enter your heart,” he continued, grabbing both sides of her face with his hands and continued moving his hips. Celine’s hand on his shoulder clenched. “But now, I am contended with this. I am happy already,” he breathed fiercely, his deep eyes gazing at her. Celine is moaning, feeling his hardness rubbed on her and she still had to bite her lower lip with all her might to keep from telling him that he does not need to thank her. Seeing how she couldn’t respond, Jeonghan smiled bitterly at her silence. Her heart ached as she saw his eyes darken. She wanted to console him somehow. And so, she kissed him again while wrapping he

It look somehow… fierce. Although she had felt that rubbed between her thighs before, it had never occurred to her that she will put that inside her mouth.‘Will it fit?’ Her eyes widened.She realized that she did not think if it is okay to suck it but she’s more worried if that will fit in her mouth! Celine was so shocked to herself.Jeonghan let out a mischievous smile as he watched Celine, who was faltering while laying down on the bed.“Can you do it?
