Not Quite Dead Yet Synopsis Little Keld is the kind of town where cats nap in bakery windows and nothing bad ever happens- until Seungcheol Choi, the beloved high school teacher, vanishes without a trace. Everyone grieved. Everyone moved on. Everyone, except his husband. Jeonghan Yoon didn't lose his mind when Seungcheol disappeared. He lost it long before that-probably somewhere between the first fight and the last kiss. So when the police called it an accident, he nodded. When the neighbors sent casseroles, he smiled. And when he buried Seungcheol under the peonies behind their house, he made sure they bloomed beautifully that year. But then- a year later, on a perfectly unremarkable evening, Seungcheol came home. Same face. Same voice. Same wedding ring catching the porch light. Except Jeonghan remembers breaking that hand when he buried him. Little Keld calls it a miracle. Jeonghan calls it what it is-a haunting in the shape of a man he couldn't stop loving, and couldn't quite keep dead. And when that familiar hand slides over his again, warm, alive, impossible-he doesn't pull away. He just listens to the garden shifting outside, soil breathing, roots whispering, welcome back. After all, who wants to be the only one in town insisting that their resurrected husband is an impostor?

Beautiful, rich, untouchable-and an absolute nightmare to protect. Jeonghan has never heard the word no-until the new bodyguard Seungcheol shows up. He's everything Jeonghan hates: serious, stone-faced, and completely immune to charm. But he's also hot. Really hot. And worse? He refuses to treat Jeonghan like the center of the universe. Which means Jeonghan has no choice but to test his patience-and maybe his professionalism-every chance he gets.

When Harry Potter was six, he learned two things: magic is real, and love won't save you, not when you're bleeding on a kitchen floor while your relatives call it discipline. Left to fend for himself, Harry disappears off the grid by the age of eleven, resurfacing years later at Hogwarts with a cold smile, a wand that obeys like a blade, and blood on his hands from work no child should know. He doesn't wear the Boy Who Lived like a badge. It's a target and he's the one aiming. Draco Malfoy has spent years preparing to hate Harry Potter. But the boy who returns to Hogwarts in their sixth year isn't the golden savior of the wizarding world. He's sharp, strategic, dangerous, and devastatingly disinterested in the war everyone assumes he's destined to win. As tensions mount and alliances shift, Draco finds himself drawn to the boy who kills with quiet precision and smiles like he knows something you don't. But the closer he gets, the more he realizes: Potter doesn't need saving. He needs someone who won't flinch when the world calls him a monster.

Brought unconscious to the dark alleys of Knockturn, he should've died- cold, angry, and forgotten. Instead, he carved out a place for himself with bloodied hands and stolen wands. He built an empire from an abandoned factory, guarded by outcasts and orphans, where creatures fight for food and every day is a struggle. He's not a boy anymore. Not a hero. Not a victim. He's a thunderstorm. Then, his name comes out of the Goblet of Fire- a name no one should know- he's dragged back into the world that left him to starve. The world of robes and rules, where boys live in castles and forget the rest exist. He's not welcome there. He doesn't want to be. And yet, in the middle of all this, stands Lord Voldemort- beautiful, terrifyingly human, and wearing a smile like a knife. He offers Harry an alliance. Harry knows better. But monsters recognize each other, don't they? And this time, Harry Potter isn't here to play by the rules. He's here to burn the house down.

Mafia boss Joshua doesn't do favors, until a stubborn, cash-obsessed vampire named Seokmin stumbles into his world and refuses to leave. Seokmin doesn't work, but he loves money (and blood).

Lee Chan was never meant to be anything more than a treaty - the youngest prince of Silla, married off to the cold Crown Prince of Xu for the sake of peace. He arrived expecting nothing and received exactly that: silence, loneliness, a husband who would not look at him. So he built a life. A garden. Music. Friends who saw him. He became someone worth being, all without the man who was supposed to love him. And Minghao watched. From windows, from shadows, from behind walls built from grief and fear. He watched Chan transform, and something inside him cracked. This is a story about loneliness and survival. About walls and windows. About two people who learned to try - every day, even when it was hard - and discovered that sometimes, the smallest moments are the ones that save you. [Cross-posted on AO3 under the same username]
