    Summary

    "He just had to go and mess it all up. And mess up Bilbo did, if the looks the dwarves were giving him were anything to go by. Their expressions were those of complete and utter shock as they all stared at Bilbo. Thorin, especially, had turned concerningly red in the face as he stared down at the hobbit, who was cradling a pebble in his open palms as his anxiety grew.

    “Um, so… you do not want this, I take it?” Bilbo asked in a small voice, barely able to keep it from cracking.

    Thorin made a sound eerily similar to that of Lobelia Sackville-Baggins choking on a piece of asparagus. Then he promptly turned around and stomped off without a word.

    The hobbit watched him go and tried his best to school his expression to not show any of the mortification he felt at that moment.

    Well done, Bilbo, now you’ve really done it."
    -

    Bilbo gifts Thorin a rock as a token of friendship, but gets more out of that than he could have expected.

    Summary

    When Seong Gihun gets a wedding invite from his ex-fiancé—now marrying his cousin—he does what anyone would do after too much wine and humiliation: he hires a professional boyfriend. Enter Hwang Inho, a high-end escort with surgical charm and a gift for becoming exactly what you need.

    What’s supposed to be a weekend performance turns slippery fast. Inho slides into Gihun’s life like he belongs there—disarming relatives, charming rivals, and blurring every line between real and pretend. Because Inho doesn’t just play the part. He is the part.

    This isn’t a love story.
    It’s a transaction.
    Until it’s not.

    Summary

    When Gihun arrives at a secluded estate to begin a quiet job as a live-in Butler, he expects routine and silence, not the slow unraveling of the man who owns it. Hwang Inho, precise and distant, lives in a house curated to erase grief, where time itself has been banished. But as the days bleed into each other and small acts of care begin to accumulate, a fragile, unspoken connection forms between two men quietly weathering loss. In the stillness of polished floors and shared silences, they begin to remember how to be seen—and how to choose the living over the ghost of time stopped. This is a slow-burn story of grief, intimacy, and the quiet re-learning of presence.

    Summary

    Gihun’s life revolves around making everything perfect for Sangwoo - his home, his meals, even his silence. But perfection comes at a price, and Gihun’s quiet longing for something more feels like a betrayal he can't admit. When an unexpected opportunity at Young Il Electronics draws him into the orbit of CEO Hwang Inho, Gihun begins to glimpse a different kind of attention - soft-spoken, calculated, and dangerously enticing.

    Caught between the chains of devotion and the pull of manipulation, Gihun must confront what he’s willing to endure, and what it means to finally choose himself.

    Summary

    Bilbo's mother had told Bilbo of a stone she had found in the Misty Mountains, a blood red stone of unknown origins. She'd brought it back to the Shire as Gandalf promised to research more into the stone. 14 years on, Bilbo's parents have died and he finds the stone in a chest and he quickly learns this stone is not a stone at all, but an egg! He raises Smaug from a dragonling, keeping him a secret from the Shire. But one day, Smaug flies away and he doesn't come back. Disheartened, Bilbo continues with his life. But when, after 30 years, a company of dwarves invades his home and declares they need help retaking their home from a fearsome dragon who had taken it 10 years previous, Bilbo joins the quest to challenge his old friend. He must help the dwarves retake their home but complications arise as he falls for their leader. Can Bilbo save Erebor from Smaug without the need for killing? Can a small hobbit prevent a war and save Thorin from madness? He must risk everything to right the mess, he believes, he started with the hatching of that egg.
