Notes
I have a lot of other fics that I need to finish, but I’ve been thinking about this plot for so long now that I thought it would be a good time to FINALLY write it.
After all, who doesn’t like HOT, PROBLEMATIC, and MORALLY AMBIGUOUS characters????
Some notes:
- Another scandal-filled story because I can never get enough
- Hopefully a realistic depiction of what seeking revenge can lead to
- Inspired by The Count of Monte Cristo
- Baekhyun as a villain of his own kind
