Summary
Wooyoung knows his duties. Marry some old alpha for political influence and have children to carry on his sire’s line. Neither sounds like something he wants. When he is captured and given as a hostage to a young warlord, he doesn’t immediately realise that San might be able to give him everything he has ever wanted in life.
Seonghwa has been married to an influencal alpha for a long time. And yet, he is nothing but a disappointment to his husband who doesn’t love him, doesn’t treat him kindly, but protects him from a world that is nothing but harsh to omegas from disgraced families. He can’t be like Wooyoung, throwing his life away for something as childish as love and longing.
Two countries at war, two omegas who just want find happiness and two alphas who might just be able to give it to them.

Summary
“Will is the thing-in-itself, the inner content, the essence of the world.”
—Arthur SchopenhauerAfter spearheading a Presidential campaign intending to set into motion a decades-long plan for progressive reform, career-diplomat-turned-politician Kim Hongjoong finds the meticulous development of the party's goals utterly sabotaged by their candidate's betrayal in nominating Hongjoong as his Cabinet Minister of Foreign Affairs—a position which no politician has served with their public reputation intact.
Two years into a five-year term, Hongjoong and his most trusted associates are still struggling to decide a plan to recover from this subliminally devastating blow to their political viability.

Summary
“If you stay,” Hongjoong says, leaning forward and pressing a palm flat to the table, “you can learn how to hunt those – pests. The ones that killed your parents are still alive. Wouldn’t it be nice to be the one to take back what they stole?”
Or, all the ways Yunho watches his life be torn apart and rebuilt again and again by creatures he once believed to be nothing more than fiction.

“What the fuck is this place?” the pirate yells, and panic is starting to bleed into the edges of his voice.
“My prison,” Seonghwa says quietly. “And yours, now, too.”
(Seonghwa is exiled by the gods to the phantom island of Ogygia, cursed to live alone for the rest of time. That is, until a strange pirate captain washes up on his shores.)

Summary
Wooyoung’s been keyed up for weeks now, more insufferable than San thinks he’s been the last six years altogether, and San gets why, he does, but it doesn’t make it any less miserable to have to sit there and smell the entire fucking club on him. Worse when he has to see the red, blue, and violet lights bounce off that chain sitting around his neck, just a sliver of it visible under his vest.
His engagement ring’s easier to hide like that. He wears it the same way when he leaves to see his fiancé, and he doesn’t make any effort to hide it or the marks on his neck when he goes to see him, so San figures they’ve talked about it. Figures his fiancé's fine with it. Doesn’t understand why or how he can be, but his job’s to keep knives and bullet holes out of Wooyoung, not stick his business into who the papers are going to be calling his alpha in a month, a week.
A day.
