⚠️ : a dark bts fairy tale au 🔞
In a world where books are dangerous portals to fictional realms, Aeri, a fairy in training, finds herself accidentally pulled into an unsealed book that hasn't been read in years.
To find her way home, Aeri has to navigate her way through the book, story by story. But getting out of the book is not as easy as getting in. Especially when stories in unsealed books are often unpredictable.
To make matters worse, the book in question is filled with darkness she cannot begin to comprehend and Aeri will soon learn that the fairy tales she's been led to believe as a child were all lies.
Happily ever after was never real.
Not for her, at least.
And definitely not with them.

“The tower by mine is empty, still. It will do until you decide otherwise.”
He extends a hand. When she rises and goes to take it, the dragon’s palm is warm as a candleflame against her own.

Summary
A Supernatural retelling of the fairytale East of the Sun, West of the Moon.
Castiel is cursed by his angelic brothers for being too close to humanity. They put him in a form that will force him to watch humans but never be able to interact with them. To break the curse, Castiel must live with a righteous human for a year. They must sleep in the same bed together at night with Castiel in his true form. The catch? He can't explain what's happening and the human can’t ever look upon him at night during that year.
The minute Castiel sees Dean, he knows this is the human that can help him. And with Sam sick with a terminal illness, maybe Castiel can help Dean too.
