I totally forgot this woah cuteness overload❤️Nobody could have guessed that Rachel would be such a mother. Hopefully you will continue to do such sweet surprises in the future

I held onto it for a long time ^^;;;

And Rachel likes doing unexpected things, like being an awesome mom >.>

Becoming Royals:

I am very happy for them. Even if i like all their strategies and plans i like romance best❤️

\o/

Rachel proved once again that she was the perfect queen for him when she did not blame him. I admire that woman she is so strong❤️

She really did understand! Kim Won and his rebellion are a huge threat to them and the country. She can’t blame him because she would’ve done the same thing in his position. She’s just happy his death is a ploy and not real <3

Wow what is his plan? is he stealing her? I love this chapter more. He want to marry her? it is possible for the crown prince to marry someone who was previously married? And rachel doesnot want to be part of his harem. will he accept to be monogamous?

His plan is to coax her away from Hyo-Shin and convince her to marry him and become queen once he becomes king. Since he’ll be king, he can marry whomever he wants, and as long as Rachel legally divorces Hyo-Shin, there shouldn’t be a problem.

But Rachel doesn’t want to divorce Hyo-Shin so he might not be successful >.>

What is the same and what is different from BR re what’s happening in the kingdom, relationship between Young-Do and the king, etc? Young-Do must have been acquiring (seems like for political reasons?) concubines for some time now? Hm, what Young-Do needs from Hyo-Shin… Rachel? A Young-Do who has not found someone who he loves, who loves him back, and does not seem to be looking for love. So motive will be what? This is going to be very convoluted…

A lot of things are the same, but the relationship between Dong-Wook and Young-Do isn’t as horrible as it is in BR. He is still abusive and a bad king but Young-Do has mostly avoided him these last few years. Dong-Wook won’t be the antagonist in this story that he is in BR.

His relationships and reasons for all the concubines will be part of the next few chapters so I don’t want to spoil too much. But Young-Do believes he needs Rachel for political reasons to strengthen and reform their country. She is too smart to be left alone in some province when she could be doing things on a more epic scale. That’s his motive right now.

>.>

In this world, Eun-Sang didn’t know Rachel and was in the Kim household? War ended less than a year ago, but Young-Do was with Eun-Sang for two years, so was she captured like Da-Kyung (in BR)? Young-Do was exclusively with Eun-Sang for two years, but what did he feel for her? Ji-Sun is a concubine? Does she have an arrangement with Young-Do or are things different than in BR?

Eun-Sang was a servant and spy in the Kim household. She was favored by Tan (and she’ll talk about that a bit more later) but also caught Young-Do’s attention at some point. He rescued her about the same time he captured Da-Kyung. He made it very public that he’d stolen these women from the Kim’s and they used everything they could to help Young-Do end the war. Not many are willing to speak out against what Young-Do did--except to say Da-Kyung and Eun-Sang cannot be queen.

Young-Do is sleeping with both of them and has children by both of them.

As for the other three concubines, I will let them be revealed as they appear.

Ah, Hyo-Shin ‘took’ Rachel away from Young-Do, who wanted her for political reasons? Young-Do ended the war but lost the chance to get Rachel? Why did Hyo-Shin want to hurt Young-Do? True, not fair women don’t have equivalent and social ok for something like the pavilion. Good Young-Do wants to change things. Still needs to consider Rachel’s personal feeling, and not just a woman to be used politically or sexually. And does seem like Rachel is pregnant now....

Hyo-Shin will talk about this a little in the upcoming chapters. As for the rest, you’re just asking for shifty eyes >.>

Still need to go on living even though feel like you want to die. Depth of Rachel’s feelings for Young-Do! Glad baby gives her something to live for right now. (and her rage (king) and revenge (won)) Aw, Hyo-Shin too! Wow, still, even now has such strong lingering feelings? Even though he loves and is with Eun-Sang now? What does she think about his feelings? Love Eun-Sang, so practical, so honest, so capable and loving!

He doesn’t really see those two feelings as being at odds with each other and neither does Eun-Sang. Love is not finite and while he was surprised to discover his feelings weren’t as settled as he thought, he still has a great deal of love for his prince. Even if they were, Hyo-Shin would still be devastated by Young-Do’s death.

Woah, a trap for Won? So devious! Cruel in a way, but needs to be to be most effective. Such a risk, though, for the baby? If true this is a planned trap, did Young-Do agree to it? (maybe he was found unconscious but alive so others made this plan) Bo-Na would have to be part of it… ooo, if this is true it is a trap for Won, Rachel is going to have some very hard words for the people who are part of it once she find out!

>.>

Have to remember this is not the time of instant information and communication. They received word of what happened, but all the details are still not filled in. Hyo-Shin’s mind as judge collects all the facts that don’t seem to add up. True, it doesn’t hurt to try and help if the trap does exist? The two of them, who love Young-Do most fiercely, have a plan now, and can channel their feelings into action. Let the performance begin!

\o/

Is it strange I find the title of the chapter to be hopeful? Only death will stop Young-Do from being there for the birth… hm… Almost to the future drabble already posted!!!

Omg i’m more than interested and excited for this. Such a great chapter. This is sexiest young do i’ve ever read. All of your AU’s are GREAT❤️

=^_^= Thank you! This is great to hear because I was a little insecure about sharing this. It’s different than my usual stuff (although there will be familiar themes ^^;;) and I was in a weird place when I wrote it. But I had fun so I hope anyone else reading it will like it too.

He is such a playboy here. 5 concubines and gisaengs? He is not married but he has childrens? Is he in love with any of them? If he will be with rachel will he get rid of other women? What about hyoshin? What will happen to him and it seems like she is pregnant with hyoshin child. Omg it will be very messy

We will meet his concubines in the next few chapters so I won’t say too much to spoil them. He does care about all of them in different ways and he does have children. He technically is married to all of them and he’ll use wife and concubine interchangeably. But he doesn’t have an official crown princess because things are incredibly complicated inside the court.

Everything is going to be incredibly messy! But it will still have (I think) a happy ending!

Stolen Throne

Thank you! Even if this breaks my heart i loved this❤️

So this is not a love story��

So, I don’t want to say it isn’t a love story, because to me, it is a love story. It’s just going about it differently than I usually do, and I’m trying to take into consideration the time period I’m writing in.

^^;; <3 <3 <3

Aww jealous Yd is so cute. In QR he stole Rachel from Hyoshin but they were engaged and hs-yd are not friends or ex-lover. He is really capable? Gah i'm now obsessed of idea evil prince steal his love. Can i request it<3

*whispers* I keep thinking about this because it sounds really fun. I’ll have to think about it a little more ^^;;

wei50-blog replied to your post “Becoming Royals a walk Eun-Sang was not doing well with her pregnancy...”

It’s a good thing Rachel brought Hee-Nam to take care of Eun-Sang! Hope baby Eun-Chae will be ok! Also very happy mother and daughter finally get a chance to know each other and spend time together. Hee-Nam is wise not to trust noblemen. Eun-Sang’s father wanted Hee-Nam… Even if Hyo-Shin loves Eun-Sang and is committed to her, too many things can go wrong, and he could be prevented from being with her as he desires. (it’s all up to a certain writer) :D

>.> :D :D :D

Aw, Rachel misses her own mother! She was so close to her and is going to face even harder times ahead. Hope Myung-Soo can come through and get the letter delivered quickly. Another possible face to face at Grandfather Lee’s estate? Imagine it would be harder now because Rachel is pregnant and closely watched. And siege tactics again… hmmm…. (King must really not be doing well to have Kyung-Ran run the court, bc would not want to show weakness if he can help it)

The King’s health is in serious decline >.>

Good, Rachel knows there is someone who wanted (still does?) Da-Kyung! And he is not with the traitors. Yes, so many things in the way… (Gwynne, I mean, Rachel is going to make her world come true!) Ah, so the baby Da-Kyung is carrying now is not Won’s. Glad to know she had healed enough to get pregnant again… She does seem to be a loving mother to her twins. Can see how hard this is for Rachel.

Da-Kyung doesn’t know who the father of her baby is because she had sex with at least two different men around the same time. Girl is living it up and not sacrificing her happiness just because her husband is a traitor >.>

What is Rachel trying to do with Da-Kyung? Establish a cordial relationship? Assess what type and how big a threat Da-Kyung presents, if any? Gain her confidence? Damage control in palace politics, or in other ways? If Young-Do has to pretend Da-Kyung’s baby is his, does it affect Min-Jae? Because Rachel is the crown princess and Da-Kyung is a concubine there is a precedence?

Rachel is unsure what she’s trying to do at the moment. She knows she needs a relationship with Da-Kyung so she can potentially use it in the future. She just doesn’t know what for or why.

If Young-Do has to pretend this baby is his, it won’t affect Min-Jae. Rachel is close to six months into her pregnancy and Da-Kyung is only three. Min-Jae will be older. Also, Young-Do has the power to pick his heir once he’s king. Rachel believes he would pick his own son over a fake concubine.

Yay! I love how their dynamics did not change after years. I don't think rachel ready to be grandma yet. I miss them. QR is always my fav❤️

(I have a few more QR requests to post!) I do enjoy writing this version of Rachel and Young-Do :D

Rachel is definitely not ready to be a grandma. She is still in her mid-to-late 40s. She thought she’d be in her fifties before this happened >.>

wei50-blog replied to your post “Quiet reconnection, youngra, 119”

Yay, Rachel (finally) is president! How far she has come and how much she has overcome!!! Love her relationship with Young-Do! They know each other so well, and have maintained their marriage in such a positive way. It is hard to be the parents of the boy to gets his girlfriend pregnant. They truly have the least control and say in any decision. And of course, past history with Eun-Sang and Hyo-Shin makes this situation more complicated than would be usual.

And they were trying so hard to avoid teenage pregnancy >.>

Wow, trying to imagine the implications when news breaks, possibly soon after Rachel becomes president. Not a positive thing for the company, and Rachel will get a lot of negative press for it. And Esther! What will she think of the whole situation once she finds out? So happy Young-Do and Rachel accept Eun-Chae! Love the childhood love story of MinChae! He is much like his father in how he loves, so his parents can’t really say much against that!

This is going to be very difficult for Rachel as a new president, especially since Young-Do has announced So-Young is his heir, so the expectation is that Min-Jae is Rachel’s heir. Even if they get married before announcing the baby, it is going to be a scandal.

Ohh really?❤️ love all of AUs because all of your ideas are brilliant and this one is more exciting... i’m hoping a surprise chapter

<3 Thank you <3 (We will see where my feelings take me with this idea. No promises! I may not like how it turns out ^^;;)

eugenecea replied to your post “Becoming Royals the song and lee wedding “I would like to borrow...”

Yes, I’m ready for next arc although they will be separate from each other!

I hope you and the other readers will find it exciting :D

wei50-blog replied to your post “Becoming Royals the song and lee wedding “I would like to borrow...”

Glad at least Ji-Sun somehow was warned about what her family was doing. At this point, what would be the point from their perspective? What would they hope to gain? Would they keep monitor her past the wedding night? And they feel like the goal is to embarrass their family at some point? Hope the plan to bring Eun-Sang in will work. Have to go about this carefully, because could be very easy to be found out.

It, sadly, is about controlling Ji-Sun. She is their only child and they had to use her wisely for political connections. They don’t approve of her sexuality so they don’t care how she feels about it. But I promise it will work out happily for Ji-Sun. She is excited to have Eun-Sang move into their home. She likes her and she even respects Hyo-Shin. So it will be fine.

>.>

Yay Eun-Sang encourages her friend Rachel in her trying situation re Da-Kyung. Perhaps having Young-Do gone will help Rachel come up with a plan to fix the situation. Is there some way Da-Kyung can prove herself, and redeem her traitor label, also because it was her father and her husband who were the active ones...?

>.>

More pieces fall into place for this separation of R and YD as their respective tasks will start. Not only will it be so hard to be apart from each other, but they will not have their biggest support with them when they have to individually face what will likely be the hardest thing in their lives so far, not to mention the anxiety for both knowing that the other will be at risk and they can’t be there to help. So much can go wrong… not looking forward to all the sads...

:D :D :D

I really am excited to share this final arc with you <3

[gwynne-fics]

So gwynne i reread TTAF and i fell in love with that storyline again. And i really want to what happened between youngra. What did young do tell her and why she decided to leave him. Soo my prompts will be about them. Youngra, TTAF, 13

(Thank you so much for your kind note about TTAF <3 I had to reread it too in order to answer your prompts. I will do my best to give you more until I can sit down and write it again <3 <3 <3

I’m not going to write that scene yet. It needs to be in the right place in the story, with the right build up, for it to have the impact I want it to have. But until I can get there...please enjoy this <3)

“I’ve missed this.”

Rachel wanted to dismiss the sad way Young-Do whispered the truth hurting both of them but after so much pain between them, she couldn’t do it. They didn’t talk as easily as they used to. She was ready to blame herself, all the way up until he broke them.

Here, they laid, in her bed, an ocean away from their country, and she realized she knew exactly how many days it had been since they made love. A year and a half was no joke.

“I’ve missed it, too,” she said. She decided not to punish him anymore or...at least...not in this moment. She rolled onto her side and laid her head against his shoulder. “Thank you for coming. I feel lost without her. I thought you might actually be the only person who understands what it is like to love and lose Cha Eun-Sang.”

He gave a hollow laugh. “I never, in a thousand years, thought you would be upset at that. I am shocked, Rachel. Do you know what Kim Tan has over her? It has to be big if she went back to him.”

Rachel closed her eyes and hated that she knew what it was. “No. No, I don’t know,” she lied. “Women do stupid things for love. That’s what it has to be.”

[gwynne-fics]

Gwynne! Do you have any plans to go back to us? I really miss you and your updates?

<3! So a few weeks ago, I switched to the full-time cohort at my web development school. The pandemic has been rough on me and making the change is definitely much better for me.

I graduate in January, but they are saying it is taking most graduates upwards of three months to find a job. I really won’t know until March or April what my life will look like or if I’ll have the kind of time I used to, to write.

My plans are a big maybe right now. I just don’t know. I’m so touched to receive this message. Thank you so much for enjoying my fics that much. I hope you and everyone is doing well and that the pandemic hasn’t destroyed your hearts too badly.

<3 <3 <3

13, Fake au, young doRachel

Rachel doesn’t know what she wants. It has been over six months since she broke up with Young-Do and she started dating both him and her sunbae. She likes them both and it is getting in the way of her work. Mother comments on it. She also doesn’t like the scandal of Rachel having two photogenic boyfriends. Mother is against Young-Do and Rachel isn’t immature enough to pick him out of spite. She’s also not mature enough to pick sunbae just because he is the better choice. He’s also better at sex and she wishes he wasn’t because that matters to her now. There is no one to advise her on this and it sucks. She shows up at the hotel and walks right into Young-Do’s room without warning. He’s in a towel and shocked to see her. She glares at him and stalks over to the fridge. “Get dressed. Let’s go karaoke.” She didn’t expect him to grin. Normally, he complained whenever she showed up unannounced to drag him out later at night.

“I missed this”

[gwynne-fics]

Youngra, Fake Dating, 26

If Young-Do is being honest with himself, he has absolutely no idea what he’s doing when it comes to sex. He didn’t get a great education and for all his bluster, he did know that porn was not indicative of what real sex was like. He at least knew, it wasn’t what he wanted to have with Rachel.

His kissing is desperate and sloppy but Rachel doesn’t seem to mind when she agrees to come back into his bedroom with him. His mind shuts up as they touch each other and figure out what works for their bodies. Young-Do has no pride anymore. He clings to her when they finish and wishes he did that the first time, instead of pushing her away.

You keep me warm. He can’t say it. He’s not sure it will mean anything to her anymore.

“I miss you,” Rachel says eventually. “There is this hole in my life where you’re supposed to be. I’m learning more about myself with sunbae but I wish I could’ve learned it with you.”

“I’m sorry I was so selfish. You seemed to know who you were when we were together. I never thought to check in with you about that. I know the thing with Tan in high school hurt you, but it didn’t occur to me to listen. I was immature to think that because we were fake, you were using me.”

“Yes, you were.” She shifts and lays her head on his shoulder. “I think we both need to grow up a bit more.”

He hates agreeing but he does. “We need to grow up a bit more.”

[gwynne-fics]

Fake Dating, youngra, 8

Rachel didn’t expect Young-Do to kiss her after her ridiculous opening at his door. She felt so foolish for evening showing up tonight but she wanted to be near him.

She didn’t feel like she knew Hyo-Shin well enough to sleep with him yet. He wasn’t pushing, which meant he probably felt the same way. She likes that about her sunbae. He is treating her with kindness and like who she is matters.

But she misses her best friend so much.

Young-Do lifts her up off the ground and kisses her much more passionately than he ever has. It feels real but she doesn’t trust her judgement anymore. She wants to say the embrace naturally winds down as she slides down his body and back to her feet. She starts to take a step back but he tightens his grip on her.

“Can you stay?”

Her mouth is dry and she’s suddenly scared what it might mean if they make love a second time.

“I can’t promise anything.”

“I’m not asking for anything past...staying.”

She bites her lip and kisses him again. It doesn’t feel like a mistake to take his hand and let him lead her into his bedroom. But it didn’t feel like a mistake last time either. 

[gwynne-fics]

Fake dating, youngra, 5

Young-Do hates Rachel’s plan to figure herself out. He hates that she picked sunbae to be the one to help her. He just hates everything about this situation. He mostly hates that most of this is his fault. He makes a lot of effort to be the one who invites her to all public social events first.

Twice, he doesn’t make it. Somehow, sunbae is ahead of him–and sunbae gets to be her escort to an event he isn’t invited to without her. He gets very worked up when his hotel manager tells him that Rachel has booked a room for the night of her employee appreciation dinner. She’s getting a promotion. 

He scrolls through his memory and his phone for evidence of what kind of gift he should send her. Young-Do absolutely has every intention of interrupting whatever might happen in that room without him. If she’s going to fuck Lee Hyo-Shin then she better remember he exists.

He finds the perfection skincare giftset she’s been raving about wanting for the last six months and gets his hands on it first. He sends it to the room about five minutes after his hotel manager tells him she checked in–Alone.

Ten minutes and a worn groove in his carpet later, there is a knock on his suite door. He answers it and she’s standing there in her fancy dress with her awkward smile.

“I might just kiss you.”

Youngra, Fake Dating, 19

love

Young-Do tries not to hope too much when Rachel asks him to coffee early one morning. He does his best to dress the way she likes. He notices how soft she is when he sits down.

When he meets her eyes, he knows not to hope. She’s breaking up with him.

“I feel like I gave you so much of myself.” There are tears in her eyes. “I can’t go back and not be appreciated.”

“I’m sorry. I was blind.” She stands and he tries to think of the right thing to say. “I love you. That’s not fake.”
