    Summary

    “And besides, we lovers fear everything”
    ― Ovid, Metamorphoses

     

    Seonghwa is a former prince whose kingdom was annexed by the empire five years ago. During the fall of his kingdom, Seonghwa is taken prisoner and brought to the capital as a gladiator, forced to compete in the brutal games put on by the emperor. He becomes the most popular fighter. The people call him the hand of Mars, but his strength in battle is only fuelled by one thing: the wish to take revenge for his people, his country. When the young emperor makes him his private guard, Seonghwa sees an opportunity.

    Behind the facade of the cruel emperor, however, lies a human being with a fear of intrigue and treason. Emperor Hongjoong hopes that Seonghwa’s protection will bring him something more than just safety.

    What will Fortuna have in store for them?

    A Matz AU set in a fictional version of the Roman Empire, ca. during the Julio-Claudian dynasty.

    Summary

    Hongjoong doesn’t know whether it’s the urge to somehow prove Wooyoung wrong, or the alcohol making his lips far looser than they should be, but he refuses to back down today. “I’m gonna fuck our poetry professor,” he says simply.

    Ever since Hongjoong first bumped into the poetry professor, he’s been obsessed. Beautiful, gentle and with a scent that’s barely there, Seonghwa is everything the alpha has been looking for. Now, if only he stopped redirecting Hongjoong’s advances…

    Summary

    Seonghwa’s world is measured in stems and ribbon lengths, in the quiet hum of Mars in Bloom and the familiar weight of scissors in his hand.

    Hongjoong’s is sharper — clean lines of ink, the low buzz of a tattoo machine, flashes of red hair bent over a sketchbook in the moody light of No. 1 Ink.

    They’re neighbors by chance.
    A marigold in the middle of a rainstorm changes everything.

    What starts with swapped deliveries and questions about the language of flowers turns into afternoons spent in each other’s spaces. Somewhere between the petals and the ink lines, something begins to take root.

    Or: A florist and a tattoo artist keep finding excuses not to leave.

    Summary

    Namhae-do. South Gyeongsang's hidden gem is officially on the map, and it's Jung Wooyoung's job to show it off.

    Starting with this island, Departure Magazine is kicking off its new series to highlight Korea's littlest known vacation destinations, and Wooyoung is the photographer on the job, tasked with leading the story and shooting the feature. He has just over a week to capture all of Namhae's charms, but this is his first big gig, and he's got a lot to prove. This has to be the story that makes the people fall in love with his work – and him fall in love with his job.

    Uncertain about his future and not entirely convinced of the countryside appeal, Wooyoung shows up to Namhae with a little bit of doubt and a lot of grit.

    His accommodations? The guest bedroom of the head of the village. His job might not be the only thing he falls for.

    Summary

    Hongjoong whistled low. “A tall order, sire.” He cocked his head to the side with a snarky smile on his lips. “And it comes at a steep price.”

    Seonghwa’s father gripped the armrests of his throne. “Name it.”

    Hongjoong paused to rake his eyes over Seonghwa. “You will give me your son in marriage.”

    ...

    Pirate Captain Hongjoong is more powerful than the King. He knows it. The King knows it. Everyone knows it. So when the King begs him for an alliance, Hongjoong can name his price. No one expects him to demand the crown Prince’s hand in marriage, least of all Prince Seonghwa. But can Seonghwa survive on the savage seas? And will this loveless marriage harden his heart like the pirate he’s been tied to?

    Seonghwa was never supposed to fall for the enemy.
    Especially not the man who became safer than his own family.
    Especially not one old enough to be his father.

    Summary

    Rozanov posts on Instagram a lot. Not on his feed, but his stories.

    Every time he lands in a city, he posts a story. Usually it's just back of his seat, or sometimes the view out the window—on the tarmac, never anything exciting, one of just many cities their lives are broken up into—and a location tag. Low effort.

    It’s pretty obvious what it is. Guys laugh about it, call it Rozanov’s Fuck Signal. The easiest way to get the hot girls who follow him to slide into his DMs.

    Easy pussy.

    Summary

    Seonghwa had been obsessed with werewolves his whole life.

    He knew the intense pull he felt towards lycans was confusing for other vampires, and he honestly couldn’t even blame them – not even he himself could begin to understand why he felt the way he did about their so-called ‘mortal enemies’.

    Seonghwa had enough self-awareness to accept that there was probably something very wrong with him. A loose wire in his brain that made him spend stupidly high amounts of money on drugs laced with werewolf semen.

    Something that made him pay no attention to other vampires, or even humans, because he was too busy fantasizing about yellow eyes and bicolor fur while high on W.

    Summary

    The truth is, Hongjoong doesn’t know how to possess things in moderation. He wants—more, more, always more, greedy and hungry and insatiable in his appetites. If he had Seonghwa—really, truly, for more than a sliver of the night—there’s no telling what Hongjoong would do if something were to happen to him. There’s no telling what he would do if something were to happen to Seonghwa because of him.

    Kim Hongjoong and the art of wanting.

    Summary

    Hongjoong is an alpha prince who has recently come of age and is preparing to be wed in an arranged marriage. Per tradition, the royal family will have several noble omegas from around the kingdom come to 'compete' for Hongjoong's heart, the one who charms him the most and is seen as most beneficial for the kingdom's wellbeing being granted his hand in marriage.

    When the time comes, there is one particular omega, Seonghwa of the Park family, that stands out to Hongjoong, because of more than just his good looks. His scent is like nothing Hongjoong has ever smelled on an omega, something spicy breaking through the sweetness. Hongjoong, not a typical alpha himself, can't help being infinitely intrigued by this quiet and mysterious omega, wanting to know more about him, not knowing he would end up being the answer to his deepest, most secret desires.

    Summary

    Squirrel hybrid Kim Hongjoong knows what to expect from humans - exploitation, abuse, inhumanity. At the laboratory where he and other hybrids were unethically experimented on, violence and pain was the order of the day. He will never trust humans again, not even the kind workers at the shelter where he is taken after his rescue from the lab.
    Then Hongjoong is adopted by a librarian called Park Seonghwa. Seonghwa is kind, gentle and seemingly perfect. He treats Hongjoong like he is precious, like he matters.
    The temptation to trust Seonghwa is strong, but Hongjoong knows that his kind act is only skin deep. Sooner or later, Hongjoong will find a way to make him angry, to make him show his true colours.
    If only Hongjoong can find the right boundary to push.

    Summary

    Hongjoong gets displaced after a fire in his apartment building, resulting in him being homeless over night. He turns to the only friends he can trust, Seonghwa and Yeosang, to help him out in his time of need, but his one concern is that the Omega, Seonghwa, is pregnant with another Alpha's child.

    Without many other options at such short notice, he reaches out to them, asking for their help until he can straighten things out with his insurance company, and they are happy to lend a hand for as long as Hongjoong needs, leaving the Alpha forever indebted to them.

    During his stay, he figures out a way to repay them.

    Summary

    The boy on the banner looked down at him with eyes full of hatred and a golden laurel wreath on his head that had been gained with more blood than any other.

    Whenever Seonghwa saw the image of the victor, there was nothing but the memory of that cruel smile as he had slit yet another child's throat. Deeply etched into Seonghwa's memory to forever haunt him.

    And the knowledge that he could never bring himself to do what Kim Hongjoong had done.

     

    Or: When Seonghwa gets reaped to compete in the Hunger Games, he is not only sent to an almost promised grave - he is also assigned to be mentored by the infamous Kim Hongjoong. The victor with the highest kill count in the history of the Hunger Games.

    Summary

    The truth is, it’s been a little difficult to be around Hongjoong these past few months. In a way, it’s Seonghwa’s own fault, for wanting things he can’t have and getting his hopes up over and over again, just to have them crushed like a dry, brittle leaf in the palm of his hand, looking as the dust flies away with the wind. He should’ve known, watching the play of light on the waters of Lake Como, that some things weren’t meant to be.

    Before the last concert of their North American tour, Seonghwa and Hongjoong spend five days at an upscale villa in Los Angeles. Those five days change everything. It's been a long time coming.
