Prologue: Where We Fell

Hey everyone! 

If you're here because of Entropy: As promised, this is the prologue for the EXO spin-off to Entropy, set a couple of years before it, though the prologue is set about a year or so after the Entropy Epilogue. Hope you enjoy! 

If you have no idea what Entropy is: Entropy is a BTS Werewolf!AU by yours truly. This is the prologue to an EXO spin-off to Entropy, that by the way, has nothing to do with Entropy and can read seperately even though there's the occasional reference to an Entropy character. If you're not interested in reading Entropy but would like to get an update when Where We Fell is posted, let me know in the comments and I'll give you a heads up when it's time. Either way, I hope you enjoy! 


PROLOGUE

 

Dedicated to the hunted of this world, to whom we owe our apologies.

 

When he’d insisted, days before the book was to be sent to printing, that the dedication page be in his own hand writing, his publisher had only raised a brow. It took some insistence before he grunted out an agreement to see what he could do, and complained about the eccentricities of writers. Later on that day, Jongdae received an email asking for the sample to be put in.

 

He’d stared at the paper for nearly an hour before writing down the single sentence.

 

It didn’t feel like it was enough. It wasn’t as though he could get specific in apologizing to everyone who’d been wronged- even with the thinly veiled description of the events, there would always be those who knew what the book was about. Some of them still had a long way to go to accept that they were in the wrong.

 

There were eleven of them at first, including him. Now, he wasn’t sure how many were left.

 

A hand on his shoulder pulled him away from his thoughts. Jongdae took the hand and pressed a kiss against the palm.

 

“Nervous?” Soojung asked, carding fingers through his hair.

 

His smile was tensed as he leaned back against her, eyes still trained on the paper.

 

“Terrified, more like.”

 

When his phone screen lit up with a new message, Soojung leaned over to get it.

 

Just finished reading the draft. Thanks for writing this.” Soojung read out and a smile flickered across Jongdae’s lips, having seen who had sent the message. “Still as expressive as ever.”

 

Snorting at the sarcasm, Jongdae flipped the page of the notebook. “Could you reply asking him to meet up sometime soon?”

 

Soojung hummed and shifted to lean against the desk. “Are you going to invite him to the publishing event?”

 

“Yeah. Some of the others too. I think they miss him, but don’t know how to approach him.”

 

Soojung nodded in understanding and picked up the draft copy of the ‘newest book from award-winning novelist, Kim Jongdae,’ a story she too was a part of.

 

Memoirs of a Witch Hunter

 

He’d asked for twenty copies to be printed before they were mass printed. This particular one had the word ‘Witch’ stricken through, and a note beneath it, all in pen.
