Aphrodite's Pearl 🕊️ Taekook 🕊️ ENG

[completed - translated by @Ayashee11]
Jeongguk is a Spartan who, after the end of the Corinthian War, settled in Corinth to keep an eye on the fulfillment of the king's peace.
One night, while on patrol, he spots a young man of unearthly beauty who hurriedly leaves the port, disappearing into a dark alley.

He is fascinated by him, so he inquires about him to a friendly couple, from whom he learns that he was probably lucky enough to meet the son of Aphrodite residing in the Goddess' temple on Acrocorinth. However, no one has ever seen him to confirm the suspicion, and the legend of Aphrodite's Pearl says that, born of sea foam, a boy raised and guarded by priestesses can only sneak out of the temple during high tides when his mother is able to protect him.

Jeongguk wants to know the truth, so he heads to the beach, where he finds the boy clad in a blue toga adorned with pearls.

The young man is intimidated by the warrior's presence, but sees in him his only hope, so before he disappears once again, he asks him to meet him at the Acrocorinth.

What will happen when Jeongguk shows up at Aphrodite's temple under the cover of darkness? How will he react, finding out what the beautiful young man's destiny is? And will he dare to change the course of events for Pearl, risking the wrath of the Gods?
