The Kingdom That Forgot The Sun

-

Summary Long ago, in a land where the sky was said to bleed gold at the break of dawn, the Kingdom of Ithralis made a deal with a dying god. In return for immortality, they gave the Sun away. Now the world is forever trapped under a twilight sky. No one grows old. No one dies. No one ever truly comes alive. Centuries turn into millennia. Love decays into memory. Children never start. The stars grow weary of the sight. At the heart of the silent kingdom is King Vaelor the Undying. He was the first to be offered immortality. He was the first to realize the true cost. But the Sun was not taken from the world. It was imprisoned. And the gods do not forget. This is the tale of a kingdom that was given immortality. It was given something worse. Chapter I : When the Sun Went Silent - The Last Dawn Image -  King Vaelor overlooks Ithralis under a dying red sun as a robed woman kneels beside an hourglass and skulls in ritual.

Summary Spreadsheets and schedules are Elias Vance's speciality. He is thirty-two years old, and his life is controlled by a carefully constructed "Five-Year Plan," a forty-page document that views human existence as an optimisation problem.

Crushology

Summary Seventeen-year-old  Aria Torres  doesn’t believe in love—she believes in data. For her psychology final, she designs a project called  Crushology , determined to prove that crushes are nothing more than chemical impulses. But when  Ezra Flynn , a charming new transfer student, lands in her chemistry class—and in her carefully ordered life—her hypothesis begins to crumble. What starts as an experiment spirals into late-night spreadsheets, scientific chaos, and one heart she can’t seem to control. From high school science fairs to long-distance heartbreak and the sweet, awkward bloom of real love, Aria learns that some variables can’t be measured—and that sometimes, the greatest discovery isn’t in the lab, but in the heart. Chapter 1 : The Hypothesis - Aria Launches Her Experiment Image - Aria types on her laptop as Ezra looks on; her notebook reads "Crushology" in a classroom setting. Love couldn’t be measured, but Aria Torres was determined to try. Room 204 o...
