Summary
“Sometimes, I’m not sure this is what I want."
“This?” Jimin lets the words settle in him. “You mean…”
“Yeah,” Yoongi finishes for him. “The wedding, the marriage, the…” it’s Yoongi’s turn to trail off this time. “Sometimes it just doesn’t feel right, doesn’t feel like…”
“All I want,” Jimin whispers, “is for you to be happy.”
It’s not a lie. Jimin just wishes Yoongi could be happy with him.
“Thank you, Jimin-ah,” Yoongi whispers. “I’m sorry for being so…”
“It’s okay,” Jimin replies, when Yoongi doesn’t finish. “I’m here for you.”
What are best friends for?
Yoongi snuggles closer, face tucked into Jimin’s neck. “I love you, Jimin-ah.”
Jimin doesn’t let himself cry, no matter how much he wants to. He holds Yoongi close, listens to his hyung’s breathing even out as he drifts to sleep. Yoongi’s words replay in his head, I love you.
-OR-
Jimin has been hiding his unrequited love for his best friend for years. But when Yoongi is getting married, a trip away for his bachelor party crumbles all of Jimin’s carefully held control.

Summary
“Oh,” Jimin interrupts. “Oh, oh!” He leans around Namjoon to whack Yoongi’s arm. “Some guy! He was hot, wasn’t he?”
Yoongi frowns, trying to duck his head when he can feel his cheeks heating. “Well, I wouldn’t say he was ugly…”
“Oh my god,” Jimin laughs. “I can’t believe you’ve been single for so long that the first guy to literally sweep you off your feet has you all blushy!”
“He actually helped me back onto my feet,” Yoongi mumbles.
“Wow,” Namjoon laughs. “So he saved you from suffocating under a mountain of dog toys and now you’re in love with him?”
-OR-
There were a lot of things Yoongi didn’t expect when he walked into the pet store to do his holiday shopping. Two women fighting over a dog sweater? Nope. Being buried under a pile of toys? Not on his bucket list. And Taehyung - Taehyung and a sudden winter romance? Definitely not, but Yoongi isn’t complaining.

Summary
“I can’t let him fix my car,” Jungkook says. “Yoongi will probably fucking sabotage it or something.”
“You have no evidence to suggest that Min Yoongi is anything but professional,” Jimin snaps.
“That doesn’t matter,” Jungkook argues. “I don’t want him touching my car.”
Jimin and Taehyung exchange a look before they turn back to him. “Why not?” Taehyung asks.
Jungkook frowns and rolls his eyes. “Because he’s an asshole.”
-OR-
Jungkook lives for adrenaline, speed, the thrill of the race. There’s nothing like the freedom he feels behind the wheel, the only escape he needs when everything is too much. But when his hunger to prove himself as the best leads to losing his only outlet, he finds himself having to turn to the last person he expects for help.

Summary
“I saw this really pretty butterfly,” Taehyung says, his eyes nearly crossed as he tries to look at Yoongi’s hand on his nose. “I was following it and I didn’t even realize I wandered into the road.”
Yoongi steps back, bloodied gauze in hand. “You were following a butterfly?”
“Yes.” Taehyung sighs dreamily. “It was blue.”
If he’s being honest, this is not at all what Yoongi expected vampires to be like. He didn’t expect scary bloodsucking monsters either, nothing like that. But… well, he didn’t expect a guy who follows butterflies and seems to, maybe, be not entirely all there.
-OR-
Paramedic Yoongi meets vampire Taehyung when he gets hit by a car while following a butterfly. After being stuck in his coffin for [mumbles] years, Taehyung is a little eccentric and behind the times. Yoongi isn’t entirely sure why he offered Taehyung, who can only name three songs off the top of his head, music appreciation lessons. But inviting a vampire into his home and his life is probably no big deal. Right?

Summary
“Please,” Seokjin says after a small pause. “Just pretend to be my date for a few hours. I promise I’m not some kind of weirdo -”
“Debatable,” Yoongi cuts in.
“Come on, what do you have to lose? What do I have to do to convince you?” Seokjin gives Yoongi a smile that he’s sure is meant to make him melt. It probably sends people to their knees, smoldering and sexy.
“Stop making that face, for one,” Yoongi says. “You’re going to give me indigestion.”
-OR-
Waiter Yoongi isn’t entirely sure why he agreed to pretend to be actor Kim Seokjin’s date at a fancy gala, maybe he thought it would liven things up. He definitely didn’t intend to actually have fun, or to make out with Seokjin in a stairwell. And it’s all fine, maybe a funny story to tell later, until Yoongi wakes up with his face all over the tabloids as Seokjin’s mystery boyfriend.

Summary
“I’m working on this beautiful painting,” Taehyung explains. “But someone tried to fix up some chipped spots and they clearly didn’t have any experience. It’s a very intricate piece, all these tiny flowers, lots of tiny spots of color. None of what they used matches.”
“Did they ruin the painting?”
“I don’t think so,” Taehyung says. He shakes his head, looking thoughtful. “I don’t think anything is ever really ruined. It might not be the same as it was originally, but it can be fixed and restored. And it will still be well loved by the people who care.”
Ruined. A harsh word, like broken, useless, crushed. Yoongi often feels that way, all of these ways. And yet… Maybe he could be restored, in some way. Even if it’s not the same as before, maybe there could still be something worthwhile…
-OR-
After an accident takes everything he loved, Yoongi finds that, maybe, with the promise of spring and new beginnings, there is more to be gained than lost. Kim Taehyung’s smile blooms sweeter than the cherry blossoms in the park, and starting over might not be so daunting.

Summary
“We’re mates,” Yoongi says simply. “We’re married now, you put my coat around me. Now you’re my husband.”
“I -” Seokjin cuts himself off. He feels insane, all of this is insane. It doesn’t make sense, there’s no way Seokjin is suddenly married to a - a - seal? “That’s not how human marriage works,” Seokjin says finally, voice cracking a little. “You can’t just say we’re married.”
“Why not?” Yoongi does not seem deterred at all. “That doesn’t matter. Humans are stupid anyway. But you’re hot and you smell nice. You’ll be a good mate. With your broad shoulders, your swimming abilities must be admirable. And you can fish, a provider.” He nods, as if this is all settled. “So you’re my husband.”
-OR-
Burned out from work, famous YouTube chef Seokjin heads to winter-quiet Jeju to escape for a while. His only goals are to relax, and try to find his spark again. When he rescues a naked man on the beach, Seokjin couldn’t have predicted what he was in for. But an accidentally acquired husband in the form of soft, impish selkie Yoongi might be just what Seokjin needs.

Summary
“Are you -”
“No.” Yoongi shakes his head. “I -” He cuts off, eyes trained on where blood trails from his finger. The same finger that Taehyung just cut open.
Taehyung knows what this means, even if Yoongi says no. He knows how it works. Everyone knows how it works.“You’re my soulmate.”
Yoongi’s gaze slowly moves to where Taehyung is still kneeling on the floor. He stares down at him, expression completely blank. There is no happiness, no smile of recognition and relief. None of the things that Taehyung expected to see when he found his soulmate. Just a cold stare.
-Or-
Taehyung has waited anxiously for the day he would finally meet his soulmate. Each bump and bruise that appeared on his skin over the years was just a reminder that his other half was out there. So everything should be great when Taehyung meets his soulmate at his new job. But Yoongi makes it clear he’s not interested in Taehyung, or having a soulmate at all.

Summary
“Lovely, isn’t it?”
Looking up, Yoongi finds Namjoon watching him. He’s smiling, something soft that has his dimples appearing again.
“I love the resilience of lotus flowers,” Namjoon continues, setting a pot of tea and two cups on the table. “They bloom in the murkiest, muddiest swamps. The roots start under the water until they reach the surface and become beautiful flowers. They’re so delicate but so strong and determined.”
Yoongi stares at the flower as Namjoon speaks, turning the words over in his mind. The little white lotus spins slowly in the water, its petals open wide. “It’s really beautiful,” Yoongi says finally.
-OR-
After having his heart cruelly broken, Yoongi feels like he’s tried everything to get over it and move on. Everything, except magic. Which leads him to a magic shop with a forest green door, and Namjoon.

Summary
“Sometimes when I’m working,” Namjoon begins, and his voice is closer now. Yoongi doesn’t open his eyes, still listening. “Sometimes,” he goes on, “I feel stuck. And I can’t figure out how to move forward. It feels like I’ll never be able to push past something and continue, like I’ll be trapped forever.”
Trapped. Yoongi understands that feeling, that reality.
For so long, Yoongi was just focused on surviving. The future didn’t matter, he just had to get through each day. Had to live and get through it. Even when he got away, he didn’t think much of the future. It was still just about staying alive. But now…
-OR-
After escaping from his previous life, cat hybrid Yoongi finds himself alone and injured. Wary of anyone, especially humans, he is reluctant to accept any help. But Namjoon offers something that Yoongi has only ever secretly dreamed of. Safety, home, pack. The promise of a future. All Yoongi has to do is trust.

Summary
“Why do you let him get to you like that?” Taehyung questions.
“I don’t know. He’s just…” Namjoon trails off, shaking his head.
“I’ve never seen anyone get under your skin like this,” Taehyung points out. “What is it about Min Yoongi?”
If Namjoon knew that, maybe he could get the fuck over it. Maybe it’s Yoongi’s talent, how he looks so effortless owning the stage. Or maybe it’s something else. All Namjoon knows is - “He’s an asshole.”
-OR-
Namjoon has had enough of Min Yoongi. The smug and cocky rapper always seems to know what to say to get under Namjoon’s skin to rile him up. All Namjoon wants is to defeat him, show Yoongi he belongs there so he’ll finally shut up. But then Namjoon finds Yoongi in an alley, beaten and bloody. Helping Yoongi isn’t easy, especially when it forces Namjoon to confront his own demons to find where he really belongs.

Summary
“What the hell?” He hears the unfamiliar voice and then there’s a harsh grip on his arm, turning him around with such strength, his phone is flying out of his hand to the floor. He can hear Jimin’s screams while he’s being faced with a female omega, the fury visible in her eyes.
“Wonyoung, what are you doing? I’m so sorry, mister…” The alpha next to her seems as shocked as Taehyung but the woman doesn’t care.
She takes a deep breath and repeats angrily, “What the hell?”
“Miss, what-”
“Why do you smell like my boyfriend, bitch?”
________________
Or the one where Taehyung is a single omega but really wants a baby so he decides on donor insemination. When one day he meets a couple, the omega girl is furious and Jeongguk is just confused because he’s a good boy and never cheated, so why does this stranger smell like him?

Summary
Jungkook could not brag about having an easy life.
He was human in a world of magic where most creatures were far stronger than him, and nothing had ever come easy to him in his relatively short life.
What he could brag about was being independent, hard working, and having his mind set on a brighter future with a simple job and a steady income.
A new friend, spilled coffee, an accidental summoning, and fate, might have different plans.____

Summary
In the middle of a stormy night, a man walks into the twenty-four hour laundromat where Taehyung works. Then he comes in again. And again and again and again, until Taehyung very reluctantly starts to let his guard down around him. He lets himself trust someone for the first time, and it shows him that there are so many good things in the world, and maybe he deserves some of them. Or, as Jungkook would insist, he deserves all of them.
Or: Taehyung has never experienced kindness or a break in his entire life. And then he meets Jungkook, who becomes his sugar daddy. The lines eventually start to blur in their arrangement, and when they disappear altogether, Taehyung discovers that what he’s truly needed wasn’t as simple as money or a break or a moment to rest. He’s needed Jungkook, and Jungkook has needed him too.

Summary
Namgyu's life working at his parents' jumak is devastatingly boring. Every night is just the same as the one that came before it—serving wine to customers who barely spare him a glance, playing music no one wants to listen to, yearning for just a hint of excitement to keep him from losing his mind. That excitement appears to him one night in the form of a charming scholar with a loud voice and an unusual personality.
And it keeps appearing, season after season, year after year, until Namgyu finds himself fully tangled in the dream that is Choi Subong.
It was always just meant to be a dream, though. And dreams, inevitably, must be woken up from.
