    Summary

    “The lost prince is all but nonexistent at this point, but he’s left his indent in time that no one can ever truly forget. And I remember you two taking those first steps together. You weren’t well acquainted, but if time had taken its natural course, I’m positive you would’ve been.”

    Felix's mind flashes back to when he couldn’t resist the urge to peek beneath those curtains, small and alone, aching for something deep in his heart, someone to be a balm for that loneliness. And he’d been drawn to that portrait. He tries reaching further into his head, picking apart his memories until his vision goes hazy, a kaleidoscope of warm colors building a vignette around the world. Like a firework bursting right before him, it all comes to a halt in a bright flash, his back falling back to the seat, warmth trickling from his nose. "

    or

    A strange servant bothers one of Felix's hated family dinners. He prompts Felix to be bolder, and he begins to question the past of his stolen kingdom. Who was the past family? The lost prince? And why does Felix so desperately want to know who he is? Why can Felix see him, when he no longer exists?

    Summary

    What does it mean to be a man? And what determines a man's worth? These are questions Chan has struggled with for as long as he can remember. He's terrified of letting anyone too close, having spent most of his adult life alone because the code he lives by is a necessary sacrifice to keep his secret safe.

    After a fateful encounter with Hyunjin, Chan is forced to reevaluate everything he knows. Unfortunately, the more he tries to fight the changes in heart, the more his loneliness and insecurities begin to eat him alive, and eventually, he's forced to make a choice:

    Face his fears and take control of his life, or lose the only person he's ever truly loved.

    Summary

    The moment his fangs broke through the human’s skin, Minho knew he’d made a mistake. He could taste it, like petrol filling his mouth. The blood was noxious, strong and bitter as poison, the common metallic undertones all drowned out by the overwhelmingly rancid taste of illness.
    He released the human instantly, shoving backwards.
    Oh, he thought, finally realising why this pitiful creature was always alone when his kind were so inclined to the company of their kindred.
    You’re dying.

    Or: Lee Minho despises humans. They’re foul and cruel and he has no use for them past what they offer him as a living food source. Bang Chan isn’t different. He’s just as human as the rest of them, just as despicable. He saved Minho once and was repaid by not being devoured. They’re even. Minho owes him nothing.
    He doesn’t know why his mind lingers on thin wrists, or pained eyes, why his voice was so gentle when he knew Minho planned to kill him, why his touch was softer again.
    Bang Chan is a fool.
    Lee Minho might just be a bigger one.

    Summary

    The longer it went on, the more time Chan had to think as they spent more and more time in each other's arms and less time next to him. Most of that thinking was about them and their new situation; he lived with them, after all. His entire world revolved around them—it had since the moment since he'd settled on the final lineup and taken all of the boys in under his proverbial wing. From the moment he woke up in the morning to the moment he finally went to sleep at night, he was thinking about them and how he could do best by them. They'd saved him, and they knew it. He knew they did, because he'd told them. They knew how much he adored them. But… no, they didn't seem to understand just how deeply his feelings for them actually ran.
    That, or they didn't care.
    And the more time he had to think, the more he was beginning to feel like the latter was the case.

    -

    OR: The one where Chan feels excluded from the skz polycule, and the moment they find out what his true feelings are, Chan's in for a hell of a time.
