    Summary

    Seungmin keeps a check in an envelope at the bottom of a drawer – severance pay for the day he finally fires Lee Minho. Even though, deep down, he knows that day will never come.

    Possibly because Minho found the check forever ago and has already spent the funds.

     

    (5 times seungmin should have fired minho + 1 time he graciously offers him a new job instead)

    Summary

    "How have you been, hyung? Dating anyone?”

    Minho shook his head.

    “Changed that leaky faucet in the guest bedroom?”

    Minho shook his head.

    “Used your vacation days at work?”

    Minho shook his head.

    “What the fuck, Lee Minho, what have you been doing these past five years?”

    “Enjoying this city without you in it, mostly.”

    Minho stared.

    Changbin stared.

    The waitress silently sat down their main dishes, warily looking between them.

    Minho’s first piece of meat went into Changbin’s bowl, and the small, ensuing grin said ‘thank you’ when neither of them wanted to break their silly stand-off first.

    So much had changed that Minho didn’t say—a joke always more tempting than the truth—but what remained constant only became clear to him now. Minho had spent the last five years undeniably bored.

    --

    Or, Minho's best friend's little brother returns home to Korea after 5 years abroad, and everything he thought he knew--about Changbin, about himself--changes.

    Summary

    Growing up in a family of storytellers, Jun didn’t believe in the Heartless Lord’s tale. Until he comes face to face with him. He was supposed to be a myth, a character in the stories, not the man who offers to save Jun's father’s life. But how can the man with the reputation of ripping out the heart of anyone who has the misfortune of crossing his path be trusted? Charming as though he is, Jun vows never to lose his heart to him.

    Lord Wonwoo was a cursed man. Even as powerful as he is, he couldn’t break free of the centuries old enchantment imprisoning him. When he encounters Jun, he discovers the strength and purity of his heart to be key to his freedom and revenge. In order to execute his plan, he slowly lures Jun into his embrace. Seducing him comes naturally. Resisting his allure proves more difficult than expected.

    As their love timidly starts to blossom, a dark shadow looms in the distance, aiming to destroy their newfound happiness. Will Jun save Wonwoo from his curse, or will he become just another victim of Lord Wonwoo the Heartless?

    In a race to determine who would lose their heart first, neither foresaw the inevitable outcome in the game of love: no heart is truly safe from getting stolen.

    Summary

    Vernon is a half-demon, and a lifetime of prejudice and watching people avoid him for his frightening appearance has made him alone and friendless for most of his life. Seungkwan is a breath of fresh air, willing to approach him when no one else will—maybe because he's just that nice of a person, probably because he is completely, totally blind.
