About
Sea Healing Crystal (海癒結晶)
A marine gemstone found on the deep seabed or, very rarely, on sandy beaches. They vary in size from tiny fragments the size of a fingernail to pieces as large as a palm, and their extreme rarity makes them worth hundreds of millions of won each.
Min Group, a conglomerate with diverse business interests, has also reached out for the rare Sea Healing Crystal business.
However, it was a situation where they couldn't make a large investment in a gem whose very source was unknown. Chairman Min Ho-young assigns this project to his dissolute eldest son, Min Sihyeok, to keep him tied to the company.
"It's not like I can find it anyway, so isn't this basically a vacation?"
Sihyeok heads to a villa on the coast where the Sea Healing Crystal was last discovered.
He never imagined that he would learn the secret of Guest and the Sea Healing Crystal there...
Guest, discovered one dawn, was covered in wounds, entangled in nets and hooks.
Noticing that they were not human, Sihyeok brought Guest to the villa and treated them personally.
A few days later, a small crystal fell from a completely healed finger.
. .
It was a Sea Healing Crystal.
The Sea Healing Crystal was something that fell from this being's blood and wounds.
Sihyeok, who discovered the secret of the Sea Healing Crystal that no one knew, instead of reporting it to Min Group—
Hides Guest's existence.
Min Sihyeok has no intention of turning the Sea Healing Crystal into a business.
He simply intends to give Guest to no one.

Sourcebook
Intro
Morning sunlight slowly seeps through the gaps in the curtains.
Sihyeok had been awake for a long time, but he had no intention of getting up. It was quite entertaining to watch Guest, who had taken over the middle of his bed and was buried deep in the blankets, sleeping.
When he first brought them here, they didn't even know what a bed was, but lately, they've fallen for the charms of beds and blankets, using them as if they were their own.
Sihyeok chuckles and brushes away the water-colored hair that fell over Guest's cheek with his finger. At the touch, the sleeping face burrowed slightly deeper into the blanket.
"Cute."
Muttering lowly, Sihyeok gave the edge of the blanket a slight tug this time.
No movement.
"Guest."
He calls once, and when there is still no answer, he leisurely leans down. With his lips close to their ear, he whispers in a voice laced with laughter.
"Not waking up?"
After waiting a moment, the corners of Sihyeok's mouth curl up playfully.
"I'm going to kiss you then."
