Everyone knows dragons went extinct centuries ago, but Hongjoong's father believed they were only hiding and now, with his uncle on a throne that was never his and the kingdom starving because of it, the prince has nothing left but to chase a children's story. What he doesn't expect is an arrow at his throat and that the stranger holding it knew they were never gone at all because they raised him.

Hongjoong never took vacations or days off; for him, it was a waste of time and money. But for Mingi, his best friend, it was the beginning of a long and perilous descent into hell.

They headed to Italy, more precisely... Venice, where the famous carnival was taking place. But what they didn't know was that it would be the best decision of their life. - English is not my first language, so sorry for the mistake ;w; - 30k words

He placed some food on my bedside table and I quietly munched on it. He smiled a little. Then he looked around. "... I've never been in here... Your apartment is nice." He said. "... Thank you..." I mumbled and looked down at my lap as I chewed. "... No one expects you to show up at school. No stress, Hongjoong, okay?" He said. And then I broke down. I hid my face in my hands and sobbed. He was clearly a bit shocked and didn't really know what to do. I could feel the mattress shifting under his weight as he sat down next to me, carefully wrapping an arm around me. Me and Seonghwa had never really... Talked. But he was clearly feeling bad for me. Which he shouldn't. It was all my fault. I sniffled softly and crossed my arms, not daring to look at him. I felt ashamed of crying like this. But Seonghwa clearly didn't care. He just sat quietly next to me, arm around my shoulders as a quiet support. "... Don't tell people I let you in..." I mumbled. "I promise I won't." He said with a soft smile. I didn't smile back when I looked at him. I just turned my face back to my lap and my fiddling fingers. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hongjoong's best friend has passed away tragically in a car crash.

Some loves are written in stars. Others are written in the space between them. Jongho and Yeosang have known each other for as long as they can remember. Best friends since birth. Side by side beneath the same sky. Falling in love felt inevitable - like gravity. But they didn't fall into love empty-handed. Jongho grew up watching Seonghwa and Hongjoong a love that almost broke, yet chose to stay. Where devotion meant endurance. Where love was quiet, patient, unwavering. Yeosang grew up watching Wooyoung and San a love that burned bright and loud. Where affection was fearless, intense, impossible to miss. Where love was something you showed, loudly and often. So when Jongho and Yeosang start dating, they try to love the way they were taught. Jongho stays. Protects. Endures. Yeosang gives. Feels. Reaches outward. And slowly, love begins to feel heavy. Because inheriting love is not the same as understanding it. Because not every heart fits the constellation it was born under. Caught between legacies that aren't theirs, they begin to wonder - Is love something you survive? Something you perform? Or something that exists even when nothing is said? Guided by the people who loved before them, Jongho and Yeosang learn something no one ever taught them..... They live under the same stars as their parents but their love shines differently.
