TAEKOOK Seventeen-year-old Taehyung lives in a society that feels haunted but he knows it's not ghosts, it's people. The walls whisper of robbery, fear, and faces that never smile, yet he moves through it all with quiet innocence. Jungkook, a cold and precise forensic officer, notices him and something about Taehyung stirs a curiosity he can't ignore. In a city full of hidden dangers, their paths cross, and innocence meets obsession, secrets meet truth... and desire begins to shadow every step.

The sun fell like molten gold across the jagged towers of JEONHALLA , the seat of power, where iron banners whispered of conquest and bloodlines older than memory. JEON JUNGKOOK, alpha of unmatched ferocity, stood upon the marble balcony, eyes like storm clouds, the weight of his empire pressing upon broad shoulders. Mateless. Untamed. King of kings. Far to the north, across jagged plains and shadowed forests, KIM TAEHYUNG, sovereign of DRAKIM , had once ruled with a sword as sharp as his wit. A rival unmatched in cunning, in charm, in fire. And yet... death had claimed him, as it claims all who dare challenge fate. But fate, cruel and divine, had woven a second thread. He returned reborn as an omega, yet clutching the memory of blood, battles, and pride. Now, bound by the ancient rites of mateship, the threads of destiny tugged him inexorably toward Jeon Jungkook, his fiercest rival, his eternal mate. The hall trembled with whispers as the decree was read aloud. "By the will of the gods, and the law of the old bloodlines, the heirs of Drakim and Jeonhalla shall be joined in bond eternal." Taehyung's eyes met Jungkook's across the grand chamber, and the air itself seemed to shiver. Enmity, fire, and the unspoken weight of destiny clashed in silence. Could a rival truly bend to mate? Could blood-bound hatred melt into devotion? For in the age-old empires of Jeonhalla and Drakim, power demanded obedience, tradition demanded reverence, and love... love demanded nothing less than the surrender of two stubborn, immortal hearts. • Vintage • Sexual content • Enemies to lovers • No cheating • Happy ending
