   amazon.com via OCLC): Tatsuki and Ohta are two beings from
   a supernatural, mystical realm masquerading as "cousins" in
   the human world. Tatsuki is in fact the successor to
   Ryu-Oh, the dragon king, and possesses the power of the
   Nyoi-Houshu, a magical dagger. Ohta is a Zashiki Warashi, a
   protective house-spirit without a home and is also
   Tatsuki's subservient lover. When their human classmate
   Koushi Misaki accidentally witness the two having sex, he
   mistakenly believes that Tatsuki is forcing the quiet Ohta
   into it, and he resolves to break the two apart. Tatsuki
   and Ohta have escaped to the human realm to avoid Tatsuki's
   marriage, which would have to take place if he is to become
   the new ruler. Even when he learns that Ryu-Oh is dying,
   Tatsuki refuses to return to his own realm. But when Ohta
   is gravely injured in a car accident, the only way to save
   him is to return to the home world. There, Ohta recovers,
   and it is discovered that his power of purification is able
   to restore the purity of Ryu-Oh's Houshu (treasure-sphere,
   the source of his magical power), thus bringing Ryu-oh back
   to health. -- Fantasy and gay romance genres. -- Call no.:

   away from Captain Marvel Jr. using his "great jumping

   attacking a human village. Freddy Freeman and the queen end

   Marvel" they escape and uncrown Zatan. Zatan goes to jail.
