Starlight Serenade ∥ Na Jaemin

NCT Dream Series Book Ⅲ

When love is left unspoken, it doesn't fade-- it lingers. Quietly. Painfully. Waiting for the moment it's finally heard.

Na Jaemin, the ever-composed idol with a careful smile, a friend, a brother to most, but a regret deep inside him. A silence too long kept. A name he hasn't stopped whispering in his heart.

Kim Jiu, the once lively girl, conquered the runaway and the hearts of many, a friend and sister. A flame that used to shine too bright to ignore. But the girl returning to Seoul isn't the same. Her light is softer now. Her eyes carry secrets. And the feelings she once buried are deeper than ever-guarded, fragile, and unspeakable.

They were never just friends. Not really.
Not when glances lingered too long.
Not when goodbyes felt like heartbreak.
Not when everything between them remained unresolved.

Now, with tension simmering beneath the surface, and emotions rising with every stolen moment, they must face the truth they've both run from for far too long.

Because sometimes, the love you never confessed...
Is the one that never truly left.
