LorChina was never quite right for Akay. Born in Shanghai, his parents were modern day nomads that took him all over the world with them and the traveling carnival they worked for. From a young age he trained as a showman and an acrobat, not realizing that the feats he was able to perform were partly in thanks to the fact that he and his family and the rest of the carnival they traveled with were a pack of wolves, quite literally. When he was 14, his parents decided quite suddenly to send him away to live with his maternal grandparents in rural Korea. The change of culture was a shock, and learning he was different from humans even more so. He never assimilated well into society, and eventually found his home in the underground of Seoul, where he became a tattoo artist, and eventually met Youngwoo. When his friend called him up to let him know about a place where they were safe, he hopped on a plane the very next day. Shortly after, he met the love of his life. A beautiful and terribly lonely elf who had just severed a bond with their ex. It was unexpected, but Akay fell fast, and hard for Luhan, and in no time at all the werewolf could think of no one else.
