    Summary

    Hongjoong was never meant to sit on the throne, yet the empire now rests in his hands. Beside him stands Prince Consort Park Seonghwa—graceful as silk, steadfast in ways the court fails to see.

    One was made to rule through steel. The other was made to survive through softness.

    But when the palace begins to crack beneath politics, loyalty, and the weight of the crown, will silk and steel be enough to protect an empire destined to fall apart?

    Summary

    Growing up, Hongjoong had heard whispered tales about the Manyeo, a cult of dark magic users that were stolen as children and moulded to become monsters. Some say that they trade their souls for power, some say that they kill anyone who sees them, some say that they're just a myth to make children behave. Once he became an adult, a pirate captain, Hongjoong had passed the Manyeo off as being figures of fiction.

    But the man locked in an enemy ship's brig had all the signs: the tattoos down his back, the dye that stained his fingertips, the clothes and weapons and jewellery. Maybe he really was a Manyeo, and maybe that was why his lips had been sewn shut. You can't cast spells if you can't speak.

    If he had been a wise man, Hongjoong would have killed the stranger while he was weak. If he had been a wise man, he wouldn't have looked into the other's eyes and noticed how they seemed to hold all the stars from the night sky. But Hongjoong had never claimed to be a wise man, and he wasn't about to start now.

    Summary

    “Do you think there’ll be anything left?” Seonghwa rolled onto his side, studying the rise and fall of Hongjoong’s chest. “After the war, I mean.”

    “I doubt it,” Hongjoong said. He was close enough that Seonghwa could see the pores in his cheek, the faint stubble along his jaw.

    “Maybe the rain will destroy what the war doesn’t,” Seonghwa whispered, “and it’ll just be us left.”

    Hongjoong’s gaze dropped to his mouth.

    “Maybe, pretty boy.”

    Seonghwa’s dream of becoming an architect is about to come true. But shortly after he and Yunho move to London, Great Britain declares war, forcing them into an uncertain future.

    Summary

    Seonghwa tugged Hongjoong’s sleeve before signing:

    “If I were you, I’d be begging my pack to take me back, Hongjoong-ssi.”

    Hongjoong lit his cigarette with a lazy smirk.

    “I don’t beg, Moonflower.”

    Seonghwa’s hands paused, confused.

    “Never?”

    “Never.”

    ✧˖°࿐ ☾ ⋆

    Enigmas are the rarest of alphas — living myths with unmatched power and a destined Luna. No one sees them. No one survives them.

    And Seonghwa, a mute, scentless omega, has no business crossing paths with one.

    Until he does.

    And that’s when chaos ensues.

    Summary

    A sheltered, delicate ballerina raised to be perfect, graceful, ethereal, adored.
    But Seonghwa wants none of it. He destroys himself in quiet ways, pushing his body to the brink, starving the beauty out of himself, trying to be too ugly, too hollow, too unapproachable, anything to be seen for his talent rather than his face.

    And then there's Hongjoong. An underground fighter who was never given a chance at perfection, a man hardened by violence and survival. When their worlds collide, he swears to ruin Seonghwa, to break him the way the world once broke him. But the more he tries, the more he finds himself unable to let go.

    Because Seonghwa, in all his self-destruction, is the most beautiful thing he's ever seen.
