Summary
Jungkook is the “spare to the heir” - largely disregarded and now, bartered off in a political marriage to the most infamously monstrous man: Kim Taehyung, Lord of House Kim, whom they call the shadowed beast.
Taehyung, reviled and feared and worshipped from a young age for his terrifying powers, has no interest in the war for the throne. But when he meets and falls in love with his new intended, he thinks: he would climb the bloodied stairs to claim the accursed throne, if only to crown Jungkook as the rightful queen.
Lord Taehyung sees something worthy in Jungkook, who has only ever been treated as the spare to be discarded. And when Jungkook’s ability manifests and comes to light, the rest of the world, too, will come to see.

Bookmarker's Notes
All those nights spent driving. The memories wash over him like waves: a shop door swinging open — speed is less important than accuracy — a wedding ring spinning across the floor. The first time Harry saw the Renault Mégane— what's the point in that? Sitting in a box, only going where someone else takes you — the fields rushing past in a weave of summer-spun gold. The long nights spent reading old Hogwarts textbooks, the handwritten notes like lonely postcards — Spell didn't work when attempted to cast on self. The Cornish coastline rises like a ghost to greet Harry, and he can hear the winds blowing southerly through craggy cliffs, rushing along endless highways, whistling through the chains of empty swings in empty playgrounds.
And somewhere between here and the southernmost point of Great Britain — somewhere between now and the past — somewhere between I am in need of an owl and Do you remember when we were eleven? — somewhere between standing still and running on air — Harry started to feel something for Draco. Affection, maybe even attraction.
And it's a dizzying, devastating realisation, but he can't avoid it. Even now, Draco's voice whispers through his mind like snow.
Going away is easy. Coming home is hard.
Maybe home isn't a place.
Maybe it's a person.

Summary
Letters from his deceased cousin caused Draco to realize that he had choices, starting with the choice to be someone else, to be who he wanted to be.
The road to self-discovery was difficult and navigating that path in the shadow of Harry Potter was its own challenge but maybe, just maybe, his friends would help him along the way.
And he would owe it all to Regulus Black.
