Summary
After living for nearly two centuries, Taehyung is tired. Every day is the same as the one before, and he went numb long, long ago. Then one day he stumbles upon something that lights a spark in him – dim and small, but nearly blinding after a century of darkness.
Or: On one cold autumn night when Taehyung is out on a walk, he sees a boy curled up asleep on a park bench. Taehyung is not fond of humans, or even other vampires for that matter, so he is confused when he returns to him the next night, and the one after that. His confusion worsens when he finds that he begins to care about the boy, and that his affection – and eventually obsession – for the human only grows. It is not long before those things turn into love when Jungkook becomes his fledgling. And when he has such a sweet, silly fledgling to care for, he no longer feels empty or numb; it is impossible to feel anything but whole again when he is loved so deeply in return.

Summary
“I still fail to see why you had to enter the Tournament at all,” Taehyung frowns. “A simple negotiation over tea with my father would have sufficed.”
Jeongguk’s amused face drops, his eyes flaring a fiery orange before settling back into their natural deep brown. “Humans are the strongest allies of this age. To stand beside you is to secure my people’s future. The crown you so generously placed upon my head tonight is that tool for me.”
“So, you’re using me?”
“Don’t take it personally, Your Highness,” Jeongguk steps near, a breath away from him, his eyes are inquisitive as they roam all over Taehyung. “It’s only politics. If I must save my kind by marrying a human, then so be it.”
or: in a masked royal tournament for the crown, a prince bound by duty falls for a dragon from a dying realm – one powerful enough to burn everything taehyung’s sworn to protect to ash, including his welting heart.

****** Excerpt ******
“Why did you submit yourself to the trials of Wotan?” Taehyung exhaled, once more pushing for the truth of Yoongi’s heart. He wanted to know what had motivated the alpha to make such a choice. Was his desire to advance so strong that it outweighed his desire to live? “A handsome alpha like you could have any omega he wants.”
Taehyung lifted the horn to gesture to the crowd around them as his gaze flitted momentarily across them. He swallowed roughly as an unfamiliar emotion bit his insides. That the alpha before him could look at another the way he was gazing at him at that moment made him uneasy.
“And if I want you.”

Summary
The bot shadows him all the way, a silent sentinel keeping watch till the door closes behind him and he’s locked in the confines of his room once more.
He walks over to the window, pulling the metal chair after him and pushes it against the wall. Clambering up, he stands on the chair to lean his elbows on the window sill, staring out the glass through the bars.
Dawn had approached while he had been in the examination room, the orange orb of sun peeking up from the horizon. Waves break against the white sand of the shore, the glare of the sunlight making it look like the beach was lit up from within. For the umpteenth time, he wonders what was out there beyond the deep blue water; longing to know, longing to see, longing to feel.
Longing for freedom.
