Destined by Needle and Thread || SeongJoong

Kim Hongjoong doesn't want to be the crown prince. In fact, he couldn't think of a worse fate. While his parents force him to attend boring meetings and boring lessons with the hope of making him a better leader, Hongjoong is thinking of the sketchbook hidden beneath his bed. The one full of dozens of designs, spectacular pieces he dreams of bringing to life and sharing with the world. But a prince can't be a fashion designer. At least, not publicly.

Park Seonghwa needs a job. Desperately. After being let go from his fourth job in a year, Seonghwa will take just about anything. Following a public breach of security involving the crown prince's personal assistant, Seonghwa takes a shot in the dark and applies for the job.

Thrust into the world of royals, Seonghwa is determined to make this job last. A task that proves to be difficult with someone as standoffish and impatient as Prince Hongjoong.

But behind that stoic demeanor is a gentleness and playfulness that Hongjoong has not felt the need to show anyone else in years. Not until Seonghwa's bright eyed optimism started to crack away at his walls.

As Hongjoong secretly brings his dreams into fruition, he begins to wonder if a different kind of dream is within his reach.
