release date: TBD

summary:

you are a 22 year old college student residing in a small apartment in the bustling city of seoul. the world around you was filled with so called "devils" and murders. you didn't believe that these creatures existed until you meet one yourself. you meet park sunghoon, a devil in disguise as a detective of seoul metropolitan police department. he is the lead detective on the serial killings of young women. when you crossed paths with sunghoon, you become the prey for his resolve to never taste human blood. will you survive?

preview:

The city of Seoul pulsed with life even at its darkest hours. You stared through the window of the terminal you were in. The streets were bursting with restless energy, neon lights reflected across the large puddles of rain from earlier. There was a faint hum of voices outside, slowly fading away by the ringing of the train tracks and the music playing inside your ears from your earbuds. You sighed softly, your eyes feeling heavy after another long day of studying.

Your eyes meet your phone as you come across a news broadcast. The news anchor's even tone filled your ears as she announced the news of the night.

Good evening, this is Jung Yurim reporting for SBC News. We begin tonight with a groundbreaking case that has impacted the city of Seoul. For the past several months, we have discovered that there have been a series of murders of innocent young women. As of last night, authorities have confirmed another murder of a young women in the quiet district of Seocho. This is the ninth murder of this year.

Authorities are speculating that the murders may be connected to "devils". For those unfamiliar, devils are indistinguishable and appear to be humans. But under any circumstances, exposed to blood or intense emotions, devils are said to lose control, transforming into violent bloodthirsty creatures.

The Seoul Metropolitan Police Department has still yet to give a statement on these serial killings and whether these murders have been caused by devils. Officials urge to remain at home and avoid traveling outside alone.

This is Jung Yurim, SBC News —

The news anchor's voice was abruptly ripped off your ears. You gasp, snapping your head towards your best friend, Lee Heeseung. Your face burned as you notice the sly smile curling on his lips and your earbud inside his palm. "This is our stop, Y/N."

Your face burned even hotter now, you were glad that you had wrapped a scarf around your neck so that it concealed your red cheeks. A cold chill ran down your spine as you hear the train doors sliding open wide, cool air hitting your body. The air hissed at you as you took one step down to the platform of the terminal. As you step down, you feel a strong force push you to the side, causing you to stumble on the platform.

You hear Heeseung's low voice griping at someone. "What the fuck? Can't you watch where you're going?"

A firm hand pressed against your arm, pulling you up. The touch was ice-cold, a chill that seeped through the fabric of your coat and sent an involuntary shiver down your back. It was a cold that lingered, numbing the skin that had been touched. You were completely still, unable to move from the stranger's grip. Blood coursed through your ears, drowning out all the noise outside. You looked up to meet the gaze of the stranger who had caught you.

His eyes were dark-an endless void. A faint glint of light reflected across, giving his stare almost a predatory glint. Something was unusual about his gaze; it was as if his eyes could see past your skin and see how fast your blood was thrumming inside your body. Apart from his eyes, dark circles settled underneath his eyes, possibly from the lack of sleep. These eyebags were a dark red, brimming his eyes.

Before you could speak, the stranger let go of your arm and walked away in one swift move. An uneasy feeling settled over your chest as you began to wonder who this person was.

HELLO AND WELCOME TO MY BLOG!!

Since there's been a huge influx of new people I thought I'd do an official welcome page! Hi, I'm SO (or you can call me Pam). :)

I'm terrible at 'about me's -- I'm old enough to remember all of the 90s, live in a place that looks like your hand, and run a bookstore for a living (which is not as glamorous as it sounds, but yes I get a really good deal on books).

I'm super into media and literary analysis and if you're looking for a place to find all my writing : YOU CAN FIND MY MASTER LIST OF WRITING HERE (I'll try to get this updated soon, it's somewhat out of date.)

I also write fic! : My Ao3 Page Yes, I have a lot of WiPs, yes they are all being worked on. ;)

IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE BRIDGERTON!

Pretty solidly a Pen and Colin girly, but I like most of the characters on the show, and am pretty respectful of all other ships

IF YOU'RE HERE FOR THE X-MEN

Rogue has been my girl since I was a child and I am 100% here for all the Rogue and Gambit. I'm a really huge fan of X-Men in general, as well as the greater Marvel universe. I also really enjoy the MCU (even if it is in a questionable state at the moment).

IF YOU’RE HERE BECAUSE I DRAGGED YOU ONTO A PODCAST ALMOST A DECADE AGO…

That’s your own damn fault for befriending me and now you’re stuck with your life choices, get used to it.

I’m pretty multi fandom these days and in addition to the above, will discuss non stop The Office, Parks and Rec, Lost, Legend of Zelda, and all things Tolkien, as well as whatever else suits my fancy. I do try to tag things in a general fashion so it’s easy to black list anything you don’t want to see.

I also have a tag for writing advice I’ve collected over the years : S.O. Writes

As well as a book blog where you can check out what I’m reading : SBC Bookclub

My Ask Box is always open, but don’t be an asshat on the internet, you’ll either be deleted or ignored. I do try to respond to everything I get as long as you’re polite!

For those looking to explore the beauty of Dudhsagar Falls, travelling by train is a popular option. To do so, you need to learn how to reach Dudhsagar falls by train. Castle Rock is the nearest railway station to the falls, but for travellers coming from Bangalore, Bengaluru City Railway Station (SBC) & Yeswantpur Junction (YPR) are ideal starting points. These stations serve as convenient hubs for those embarking on this journey. You can easily reach these railway stations by bus or taxi from different parts of Bangalore.

How Will You Conquer the Challenges?

1. Physical Preparation: The trek involves walking long distances, crossing streams, and navigating rocky terrain. It is important to build up your stamina through regular exercise and practice walking or jogging before your trip.

2. Pack Smartly: Packing lightweight and weather-appropriate gear can make a big difference. Make sure to carry essentials like a raincoat, waterproof shoes, insect repellent, and a flashlight. Remember, less is more when you have to carry everything on your back.

3. Waterproof Your Belongings: The waterfall trekking experience at Dudhsagar means that you may encounter wet conditions. Keep your electronic items like phones and cameras in waterproof pouches, and make sure to pack a dry change of clothes.

4. Follow the Guide’s Instructions: The trek is best done under the guidance of an experienced trek lead. They are familiar with the terrain and safety protocols, ensuring that your trek is as smooth as possible.
