Summary
The North and the South were never allies. After a surprise attack nearly destroyed the Southern kingdom, peace is sealed not by trust, but by necessity — through a political marriage between the North’s alpha king and the South’s omega king.
Taken to the North as part of the treaty, Joshua is seen as a foreign body, a tolerated consort, never accepted. Silent, distant, and more tied to war than to court halls, he neither competes for affection nor claims space, even as the king keeps an omega lover under his protection within the palace.
The whispers grow. Too Southern.
The wrong omega. A king in name only.
War changes everything.And the kingdom learns, far too late, that not every flower is born to be plucked.

Summary
Joshua had long known what he had left in Korea was no home for him from the moment he was kicked out the door at the age of seven. That's why he planned to fly back home the day after the funeral.
But his reunion with his childhood friend in need of help delayed his departure. With no ties and nothing to lose, he chose to stay.
What he never expected was how deeply he would grow attached to a family that wasn't his own.
And now, leaving would break more than just his own heart.

Summary
Hong Jisoo knows what it takes to survive living in gang territory. He grew up here, made his best friends here, and even now, as a highly sought after surgical resident, he can’t bring himself to completely pull away from the neighborhood that raised him. It’s a balancing act – one he’s been very careful to maintain – until he’s completely thrown off balance when someone gets stabbed, two people from his past re-enter his life with a shocking force, and Lee Seokmin, a charismatic member of the gang that goes by Seventeen, takes an interest in him.

Summary
"Some say that Choi Seungcheol was born unlucky. Some say he was born cursed. Others say that he must have done a great evil in a past life to be reborn with the slash across his face and the spiderwebbing scars up and down his arms.
Some say that Joshua Hong was born lucky. Some say that he is blessed. Others say he must have done some great good in a past life to be born as lovely as he is."
When Joshua begins dreaming about a life centuries past, memories begin to bleed into real life as he starts to encounter people he knew centuries ago. But the two most important figures in his life remain lost to him: his little brother and the mysterious prince he thinks he was in love with. As Fate starts to interfere, Joshua's personal life begins to spin out of control, bringing him closer and closer to confronting a truth he thinks he might not want to remember.
