    Summary

    "I need to tell you something," you spoke, the words leaving your mouth before the thought fully formed, "I don't date." You handed his phone back, pulling your bag higher on your shoulder.
    "You don't date," Chris repeated, returning his phone to his pocket.
    "I don't. My life is... too complicated for that."
    "Heard," he nodded without protest, "we won't date then."

    It's hard to meet people after losing your husband. Between solo parenting, awkward questions, and the crushing weight of grief, dating was the last thing on your mind. You accepted your fate: staying single was the only option.
    Then, you met Chris Bahng at a party.

    Summary

    "I guarantee you nothing will happen to you. I give you my word."

    "How much does your word weigh, though?" Aristia scoffs. "You vowed during our wedding to love, cherish and protect me no matter what. So far, none of your vows were respected. You said it yourself. You were never a husband to me."

    (...)

    "How could I have trusted you? You are the daughter of my enemy." Chris frowns.

    "I don't know. How can I trust you now, then? You are a man who hates me for simply being born as a princess of the enemy kingdom."

    "... I assume you can't."

    ---
    The Kingdom of the South and the Empire of the Sun forge an alliance at the expense of Princess Aristia - the daughter of a King who didn't want her, sent over like a sacrificial lamb to his enemy, a man who doesn't want her either, who won't even cast a look at her. She decides she won't look at him either. Two can play this game.

    Summary

    Rumi was just trying to unwind after rehearsals for the new single by hate-scrolling through fan edits of her and Jinu, but the second he crawled onto her back half-naked, dripping wet from the shower, and started reading them out loud, she knew she had fucked up.

    Or: Jinu discovers the “mating press + breeding kink” fan ship headcanon on Rumi’s phone, decides he needs a proper demonstration to learn what it truly is.
