In the golden kingdom of Avalore, duty is worth more than love. Prince Seonghwa has spent his entire life trapped beneath jeweled crowns, suffocating expectations, and the promise of an arranged marriage that will secure peace between kingdoms. On the night of his eighteenth birthday, the palace glitters with celebration as nobles from across the seas gather to honor Avalore's future king. But beneath the music and silk lies a cage Seonghwa has never been able to escape. Then he arrives. Captain Kim Hongjoong - the infamous leader of the Black Pirates. A ruthless outlaw whispered about in taverns and royal courts alike. A pirate captain feared across every kingdom bordering the sea. Men claim he sinks naval fleets for sport, steals from emperors without remorse, and leaves nothing behind but smoke and blood in the water. No one notices him enter the ballroom. Until Seonghwa does. What begins as a fleeting encounter hidden between marble corridors and candlelit shadows quickly turns into something dangerous. Hongjoong becomes fascinated by the beautiful prince dressed in silk and diamonds - the prince who looks far too lonely for someone born into luxury. And Hongjoong has never handled obsession well. As political tensions rise, alliances crack, and the sea itself begins whispering the Black Pirates' name, Seonghwa finds himself caught between two futures: A kingdom demanding obedience. Or the terrifying pirate captain willing to burn kingdoms just to keep him. Rankings: #1 in ateez #1 in choijongho #1 in woosan #2 in matz

Hongjoong just sat on his bed looking at the man in front of him with an unreadable expression. Yeah, he spent the entire afternoon at his studio, but he didn't work. Not at all. In fact, he was feeling a little guilty because now his groupmate was standing in front of him with a worried expression when in reality he had spent the afternoon reading fanfiction of the both of them together. And he was starting to realize... things. He was starting to realize that if filled his heart when the older talked to him like that, or that he found him extremely beutiful, or that he was looking at his lips right now

Seonghwa's life has never been easy. Growing up in a poor family his childhood is not much but bad memories. Getting into adulthood, as much he hoped, didn't change anything. Still struggling financially, being anxious and depressed and well mostly alone is not the best thing. And that's when he meets his freshly moved in next door neighbour Kim Hongjoong. The total opposite of him. The man leaves him stunned the first time when they meet and never fails to make him surprised. Getting closer to each other wasn't his plan but he regrets nothing. Falling in love wasn't his plan either. Yeah now that he doesn't really like.

It was supposed to be a simple one-night stand. A measly night of passion. A one-time thing at most. They both had agreed to that before everything. One thing they did not account for was falling for each other from that night spent together. Seonghwa wasn't supposed to have fallen for his friend's brother after that night, but he did. And he didn't regret it... What he didn't know was when he agreed to spend that night with the alpha, it became the most important mistake of his life... An unlikely love story unfolds when Seonghwa meets a charming, handsome stranger at his best friend's wedding and turns his life upside down.
