Summary
They’d made it plain enough at the council table, hadn’t they? “Optimal genetic pairing,” the elders chorused, ink-stained fingers circling her clan’s kekkei genkai records. Uchiha ocular prowess spliced with Uzumaki chakra reserves. A breeding contract swaddled in silk.
Once upon a time Naruto had held her fingers through her clan’s compound gates—until the guards had pried him loose and he had screamed her name into the night. Now, Sasuke stared at the man across their wedding chamber—her husband—his gaze fixed on the tatami’s weave as if meeting her eyes would turn him to stone.

Summary
“I’m full of surprises.” Naruto said solemnly.
“Mmm. I can see you are.” Sasuke’s lashes lowered, and when they rose, his eyes were on Naruto’s hands. “Like the way you’re keeping your scent to yourself. That’s… unusual.”
Naruto tamped his pheromones a notch lower, reflex more than thought, a warm cinnamon hum contained to his own skin. “You get crowded enough,” he said. “I figured I could be the person who doesn’t crowd you.”
Sasuke didn’t answer immediately. The air shifted, he let the barest thread of his own pheromones slip. Naruto felt the recognition hum along his nerves and, more than anything, was pleased he knew the difference between notice and push.
“What happens,” Sasuke asked, quieter, “if I want you to?
Naruto blinked. “To… crowd you?”
“To stop pretending you’re not an alpha.”
“Then I stop pretending.” Naruto said, just as simply.

Summary
Wonwoo is the very picture of a sailor. The laces of his white vest are undone so the loose sleeves slip across his broad shoulders. His hair is darker than the ocean at night, sharp features catching the afternoon sunlight perfectly as it streams in.
Seungcheol thinks he might be immune to sirens now; he's already too used to having someone this ethereal near him every hour of every day.
-
Seungcheol has captained his crew through sea storms and siren infested waters. And each voyage, he has fallen for his navigator, Wonwoo, all over again. This particular mission doesn’t seem too different.
Then, everything starts to go wrong.

Summary
When the war ends, Viktor leaves Jayce behind and disappears.
Jayce searches for him through all timelines and possibilities, and tries to put the broken pieces of Viktor (and himself) back together.
He just didn't expect to wind up in the past and meet a younger Viktor before his apartment exploded, nor the events he would unwittingly set in motion.
"Goodnight, Jayce," Viktor breathes.
The last thing he knows is a gentle caress against his forehead. Cold. But tender, featherlight. Afraid.
And he bolts awake in the dark, only a mere few hours later, sweating in the cold of the night.
Alone.

Summary
“Just a note. If someone is in love with you and you don’t want them, the kind fucking thing to do is to let them go.”
--
Or:
Viktor takes a chance that Jayce doesn’t know what to do with. Things are different after that, and slowly but surely Jayce begins to second-guess his response.
