After midnight, the city belongs to the people who refuse to follow its rules. Hidden beneath abandoned warehouses, industrial districts, and deserted stretches of highway, an illegal underground racing circuit thrives. High-stakes races attract wealthy gamblers, ruthless drivers, skilled mechanics, and people willing to risk everything for the thrill of speed. At the center of it all is Min Yoongi. Yoongi is the most famous street racer in the underground circuit. Cold, composed, and notoriously difficult to beat, he has built a reputation that makes other drivers think twice before challenging him. Tonight is supposed to be another routine race. Until he notices her. Away from the crowds and roaring engines, a devastatingly beautiful woman is bent over the engine of a heavily modified race car. She isn’t watching the races. She isn’t talking to anyone. She’s completely absorbed in the machine in front of her. She’s a mechanic. And apparently, an exceptional one. Yoongi watches as she diagnoses a problem almost immediately, making precise adjustments while the car’s owner waits nearby. She doesn’t need instructions, doesn’t seek approval, and doesn’t seem interested in impressing anyone. Most importantly, she doesn’t seem impressed by him. When Yoongi eventually approaches, expecting at least a glance, she barely looks up. She simply tells him he’s blocking her light. It’s the first time in a long time someone has treated Min Yoongi like he’s just another person standing in the way. And strangely enough, he can’t stop thinking about her.
