Peaches in the Dragon's Garden | mattparkz

One peach. One smile.
King Park Gunwook looked at fruit-seller Seok Matthew and forgot he was supposed to rule a kingdom.
Matthew never asked to be loved by a king.
He only wanted enough coin for rice and a dry place to sleep.
Yet every night, the king came to him in secret, tall and gentle, kneeling like he belonged only there.
In hidden gardens and moonlit libraries they built a fragile world of blossoms and quiet promises.
But Joseon kills what it cannot name.
This is the story of a king learning to kneel, a commoner learning to survive love's impossible weight, and how even the softest love can break both their hearts.
