Completed | Pirate | Omegaverse | nsfw "They said I lied," Hongjoong said, remembering the looks on the guards faces, the way one of them had punched him in the gut and threatened to make him regret lying. "Did you?" omega asked. There was no curiosity in the voice, like he was asking the question just to entertain Hongjoong or be polite, not because he actually cared for the answer. He grinned. "Well, yeah. Had I told them that I'm a pirate and I actually had robbed the facility moments ago, I'd be heading straight to the gallows." Getting hanged really wasn't in his plans that day. "Are you going to tell me what landed you here?" "They say," the voice replied, mimicking his tone, "I stabbed someone." "Did you?" "If I did," the omega said, "he was a nasty alpha and deserved it." OR: Hongjoong meets Seonghwa in a prison cell. They're supposed to part the moment they've escaped, but life, as it happens, has other plans. Having a deadly omega on his ship might be the worst and best thing that ever happened to him.

And even if his heart stopped beating, his body going numb and his hands turning cold, he'd still seek Hongjoong's sad but longing eyes because they kept him alive. "Hongjoong-ah, what we did was wrong. Forbidden. But don't resist us our right to be. ... even if it's selfish."

Seonghwa hasn't seen nor heard from Hongjoong, his childhood best friend and teen crush, for five years now. Well, that is until he appears at his doorstep on one sleepless night. Seonghwa should be happy, but all he can feel is worry. Hongjoong looked weak and dirty and... different? Yes. But did he see it right? The red eyes? Seonghwa now has to adapt to the other's changes and brand new odd behavior besides the frequent panic attacks and trauma responses. Hongjoong, on the other hand, has to come to terms with what he has become and what he's been through so he can hopefully feel comfortable on his own skin at last. DISCLAIMER: this book is mainly seongjoong, but they're involved in a lot of complex dynamics with other ships. Also, there are two characters that use fake names in the beginning. Oh, and every character switches at some point. CWs and TWs: lots of weird shit with blood, open relationships, polyamory, polyamory negotiations, panic attacks, ptsd, dissociation, major self-destructive behavior, mention of eating disorders.

Friends to lovers but it's a bit messier than you think it is.
