Summary
Pirates spend their lives hunting down treasure, but the most valuable treasure of all isn’t gold or jewels - it’s mermaid scales. After the majority of Captain Kim Hongjoong’s crew is decimated by disease, he has no choice but to turn to the hunting of mermaids to keep himself and his remaining men afloat. When a new pirate joins them, however, he struggles to maintain his control over his crew, his ship, and his emotions.
It’s only a matter of time until Hongjoong’s notorious reputation falls apart, but little does he know that darker plans are at play beneath the surface.
Mermaids can walk on land if they choose, but doing so is practically unheard of due to the risks. Seonghwa is the only living mermaid of his kind left, and after a life of hiding from ruthless hunters, he hatches a plan for revenge. He poses as a pirate and steps ashore for the first time in his life, all with the intent to destroy a certain captain, his crew, and his ship from the inside.
It’s only a matter of time until Seonghwa’s true identity is revealed, but he plans to destroy them all before it comes to that.

Summary
Born as a human into a world where angels rule, Seonghwa has never been in control of his own fate. Stolen away from his village at fifteen, he found himself forced into a despicable man-made movement dedicated to manufacturing metal wings and fusing them to the backs of stolen humans, all in the attempt to fight back against the angel regime. Brainwashed and exploited, they are known as silverwings.
Hope has never been in the cards for Seonghwa.
Born as a true angel, Hongjoong has dedicated his life to a resistance of his own creation, focused on the rehabilitation of any and all silverwings he can manage to save from their cruel fate. When a mission ambush ends in Seonghwa’s rescue, however, he proves to be a far more difficult case than anyone had bargained for - especially Hongjoong.
Thankfully, Hongjoong has never been one to surrender.

Summary
When Seonghwa’s tour boat capsizes, sending all of its occupants into the churning waves, he and seven others manage to make it to a small island on the horizon, overgrown with vegetation and clearly bearing no other signs of human life. With high tensions, they are forced to work together to survive, and he easily gets along with all but one of his fellow castaways.
Hongjoong is closed off and hot-headed, and eventually Seonghwa gives up on the possibility of civility between the two of them. Still, as the nights come and go and time seems to stretch into one continual loop, he realizes there is more to Hongjoong than he’d initially thought.
The island becomes their new normal, and Seonghwa becomes so accustomed to life there that he can hardly remember what it was like before the world had forgotten about them. Never did they anticipate a rescue, nor the world’s obsession with the eight boys who came back from the dead.
