    Summary

    From closer, it’s clear that Minho is about his age. He’s handsome— very much so— in an untouchable sort of way. Straight nose, sharp eyes, a defined cupid’s bow. He looks sculpted rather than born. Jisung might shrink under the weight of his presence if the situation were different.

    Knowing that Minho is dying ruins the illusion of perfection.

    Jisung answers an ad online reading: "I'm going to die, but there's a lot of things I haven't done yet that I don't want to do alone."

    Summary

    The boy on the banner looked down at him with eyes full of hatred and a golden laurel wreath on his head that had been gained with more blood than any other.
    Whenever Seonghwa saw the image of the victor, there was nothing but the memory of that cruel smile as he had slit yet another child's throat. Deeply etched into Seonghwa's memory to forever haunt him. And the knowledge that he could never bring himself to do what Kim Hongjoong had done.

    Or: When Seonghwa gets reaped to compete in the Hunger Games, he is not only sent to an almost promised grave - he is also assigned to be mentored by the infamous Kim Hongjoong. The victor with the highest kill count in the history of the Hunger Games.

    Summary

    Park Seonghwa had been a prisoner at sea for the past two years ever since he was snatched off the streets. When a battle with a rival pirate crew leads to his capture, he is merely moved from one prison to another. He doesn't realize it at first, but this new prison is different. Against everything he knows, he slowly finds himself warming up to the crew members he had sworn to hate.

    Park Seonghwa promised himself he would never feel again. Emotions only got people killed.

    Captain Kim Hongjoong had never felt an ounce of remorse for anyone outside of his crew. If they weren't with him, they were against him. But when they bring a prisoner on board for information, Hongjoong watches as his crew members warm up to him despite their orders not to engage. As their attachment grows, Hongjoong's hate for the prisoner swells.

    Kim Hongjoong promised himself he would protect his crew. Emotions only got people killed.

    And if I say Seongjoong and this fic made me fall in love with the enemies to lovers trope, then what? So so good! One of my favorites Seongjoong out there.

    Summary

    Pirates spend their lives hunting down treasure, but the most valuable treasure of all isn’t gold or jewels - it’s mermaid scales. After the majority of Captain Kim Hongjoong’s crew is decimated by disease, he has no choice but to turn to the hunting of mermaids to keep himself and his remaining men afloat. When a new pirate joins them, however, he struggles to maintain his control over his crew, his ship, and his emotions.

    It’s only a matter of time until Hongjoong’s notorious reputation falls apart, but little does he know that darker plans are at play beneath the surface.

    Mermaids can walk on land if they choose, but doing so is practically unheard of due to the risks. Seonghwa is the only living mermaid of his kind left, and after a life of hiding from ruthless hunters, he hatches a plan for revenge. He poses as a pirate and steps ashore for the first time in his life, all with the intent to destroy a certain captain, his crew, and his ship from the inside.

    It’s only a matter of time until Seonghwa’s true identity is revealed, but he plans to destroy them all before it comes to that.
