Capítulo 1: Prologue FATE
In the dimly lit study, Kwan's voice trembled as he spoke to his father, his heart torn between love and duty. "Father, I love her. Why can't I just take her away, escape from all of this, and start a new life somewhere?"
His father, a stern and imposing figure seated behind the ornate desk, looked at Kwan with a mix of concern and stern resolve. "You are the next successor of this yakuza family, my son. You can't simply run away from your responsibilities. Moreover, she is the daughter of the most influential chaebol in Japan. Do you understand what that entails? Your statuses are incompatible."
Kwan's eyes glinted with defiance, his determination unwavering. "I don't care about status, Father. I'll fight fate itself if that's what it takes to be with her. I can't let her live in the shadow of danger while I continue with this life of ours. Love is worth any sacrifice."
His father's gaze softened, realizing the depth of his son's feelings. "It's not just about you, Kwan. What if he follows you? What if danger finds its way to her despite your intentions? Can you guarantee her safety in our world?"
Kwan's resolve deepened, his voice unwavering. "I'll protect Anna, Father. I'll shield her from any threat, no matter the cost."
As the weight of their conversation hung in the air, a pivotal choice lay before Kwan – a choice between the love he yearned for and the destiny that was set before him. The tale of love, loyalty, and sacrifice was about to unfold, challenging both heart and honor in the shadows of two powerful worlds.
