    Summary

    Every year, Jungwon’s village sacrifices a young man to the feared Black Dragon. This year, Jungwon offers himself willingly.
    Instead of death, he is taken to a golden cave palace by Jay — an ancient, lonely dragon shifter. There, Jungwon is pampered like a prince, showered with riches and unexpected gentleness.
    As he discovers the “monster” is actually deeply protective and kind, Jungwon must choose: return to his village… or stay forever as the dragon’s greatest treasure.

    Summary

    “He’s sleeping,” Jungwon says.

    “Yeah. In your lap. Jay-hyung. Is sleeping. In your. Lap.” Sunoo enunciates every word carefully, as if saying them any slower will help Jungwon understand why all of them are looking at him like he’s grown two heads.

    (or: the five times everyone thinks jay and jungwon are dating, and the one time jungwon starts to wonder if they really are)

    beautiful art by the lovely spinatch!

    Summary

    "Hyung, what will it be like when we no longer have a reason to share rooms like this?"

    "What do you mean?"

    “I mean when you have a family… children… a wife..."

     

    It's in a hotel room where Jungwon realizes he won't be spending a lifetime with Jay by his side.

    Summary

    Jungwon moves to pull out the axe and Jay's eyes rake over him. The serenity isn't an affectation. There's a slight tremor in his legs but it must be adrenaline more than anything else. His face is cool, relaxed. There's nothing in his face to indicate he's scared or apprehensive. He looks perfectly in his element.

    Not for the first time, Jay gets the sense that he and Jungwon are two worlds apart. What is new is the sense of danger.

    Or: Somewhere between Seoul and Busan, Jay and Jungwon find each other.

    Summary

    "It's not your fault," he manages, squeezing Jungwon's shoulder in an attempt at comforting him. "Not at all. Please don't apologise to me for something that's out of your control. I mean, come on, it's a fucking curse because apparently those exist now. There's nothing you could do."

    "I guess." He's still not making eye contact with Jay. "I'm just sorry that you've been dragged into this mess." He snorts humourlessly. "And now you're gonna have to be attached to me for literal months."

    "It won't be so bad," Jay says, shocked to find that he means it. "Considering," he puts on a brave face, "considering it's us, right?"

    Jungwon looks up at that, face set in wariness. "Yeah," he says slowly, eyes scanning Jay's face. "Yeah, considering it's us."


    Or: Jay quickly learns that there are worse things than being curse-bonded to your bandmate.
