Summary
"More coffee?"
Mydei looks up and for a moment feels like the breath has been knocked out of him, words lost in the face of the man who is hovering by his table. Handsome. Beautiful. Winsome is how Mydei would describe him in one of his books. He has clear bright eyes and an expression so sweet and boyish that it puts him in mind of a puppy.
Unfortunately, because of his surprise and inappropriate staring, it takes him a beat too long to answer and the man's smile turns from friendly to something more knowing. Like he can see inside of Mydei’s head and all the indecent thoughts he’s trying to desperately put a lid on.The Romance Novelist Mydei & Cafe Owner Phainon AU

Summary
“Thank you, Professor,” Phainon manages to say, all in one breath. He looks from Mydei, to Castorice, and then back to him. “And you, Professor. I’m an admirer of your work.”
He says this with the softest hint of bitterness. A little clipped, but polite.
“Likewise. It’s a pity I beat you to it,” Mydei says. His voice is deep. Holds the upturned tilt of something playful and pleased. That has Phainon seething, just a little. And Mydei smirks, mirth bright in those eyes, as if reveling in Phainon’s failures.
It’s a pity Mydei is so fetchingly handsome when cocky. All the lectures Phainon had attended in the past had been spent admiring Mydei. Back then, he’d been utterly enamoured.
Things are different now, for a multitude of reasons.
- Uncovering the mysteries of the Ancient Okheman ruins, Phainon, a recent graduate, pursuing his PhD, and Mydei, his Mentor, have strange dreams, and soon realize, that their souls have known each other long before this life. But what can one do when a love that was meant to be doomed is finally found in a life that is kinder? Will they willingly fall over that edge, or let grief for a life they could not have drowned them entirely?

Summary
Every child of Sumeru, from Gandharva Ville to Port Ormos, knows that the Dragon nests in the high branches of the Great Tree. The children chant among their skipping games of Rukkadevata, who tamed the great beast before it brought its grief and calamity to wither all the great jungle, of Little Lord Kusanali, daughter of the great goddess, to whom the beast only listens. Their parents gossip about the vast trove of knowledge, hidden in the boughs of the tree, far beyond the reach of any mortal scholar, where only the bravest and wisest may tread and come out alive.
Some old stories tell of scholars sent up in sacrifice to appease the Dragon’s anger, for when he is moved to fury, only the Dendro Archon can calm him, and when he is moved to sorrow, all the rivers flood and the jungle dies for his loneliness.
---
A fairy-tale-esque story about a beauty, a beast, and of course, about love. No roses necessary.

Summary
Lyney thinks he is shaking. “Shut up, Wriothesley. Just shut the fuck up.”
“We’re getting married, thanks to you,” Wriothesley says coldly. His hand comes up, lifting Lyney’s face, and his fingers are icy against the flush of the night on his skin. “You now have your entire life to try to make me shut up.”
Lyney finds himself entrapped in marriage with the duke whose estate he infiltrated and barely managed to escape from two years ago.

Summary
People enter Al-Haitham’s life, and then they leave. That is just the way it is: first it was his parents, and then it was his grandmother, and soon enough, it will be Kaveh. He's already set to have a future that other people could only dream of brushing with their fingers.
There are much greater things than Al-Haitham in Kaveh's destiny.
Sometimes all it takes is ten years.
