Believing he was promised Princess Lysira Valestra of Nightfire Glen, Theron instead finds himself married to a seemingly powerless maid—Elysia.

Written in Art Some people fall in love loudly. Others disappear quietly and call it fate. Serio Svana is a young writer with a reputation for brilliance and a talent for emotional distance. He moves through college, friendships, and relationships as if observing them from behind glass—detached, ironic, always in control. He believes feelings are something to analyze, not surrender to. Leona has been beside him for years. Best friends. Almost everything. Never enough. Between coffee shops, lecture halls, late-night parties, and silent car rides, their connection stretches and fractures—caught between care and refusal, intimacy and denial. Around them orbit jealousy, ambition, art, and people who mistake confidence for cruelty and distance for strength. As new figures enter Serio’s life and force him to confront the parts of himself he keeps untouched, the line between choice and fate begins to blur. Written in Art is not a love story. It is a study of connection, ego, avoidance, and the quiet damage people cause without ever meaning to. Because sometimes the most dangerous thing isn’t loving too much— it’s never letting yourself feel at all. "I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com"

They call it Strategic Reserve. A classification that means everything and nothing. Permission to refuse. Authority to choose. The burden of autonomy when the world demands obedience. Kurogane never asked for lightning. Never wanted the internal dialogue with elemental force that sets him apart. Never sought the designation that makes him simultaneously invaluable and expendable. But when precedent conflicts with survival, when doctrine opposes necessity, when a 12,000-year-old mistake begins unraveling— Someone must choose. Between what the Council demands and what conscience requires. Between preserving systems and saving lives. Between the safety of suppression and the risk of integration. Lightning doesn't command. It questions. And questions, once asked, demand answers. Even if those answers might destroy everything.

Warning: Read at your own risk. I was just a kid when they started locking me in the house. Because I was mischievous, they said. Dark rooms. Hours that felt like years. The key turning. No reasons given. Years later I discovered my mother kissing Uncle Jun. My chest caved in. I turned and went straight to find my father. I needed him. Needed one person who wasn’t lying. I discovered him cheating too, with my aunt. The floor dropped out from under me. Everything cracked open, every hug, every “I love you”, every family photo, turned into glass shards slicing through my ribs. I couldn’t scream. Couldn’t cry. Just stood there until my legs gave out. My whole world didn’t break. It vanished… I thought that was the worst it could get. Then, only too soon, I lost my virginity to someone close. One night, she came to my room, someone I’d known forever, someone who felt safe in the wreckage. Her hands were gentle at first. Then urgent. Clothes fell away. Skin on skin. She guided me inside her, warm and tight and slick. I moved clumsy, then desperate, thrusting deeper while she whispered it was okay, that she wanted this, that she’d take the hurt away. Her legs wrapped around me. Nails in my back. Soft gasps every time I bottomed out. I came hard, shaking, spilling everything I had left into her while tears finally broke free. From that moment my world changed completely. I was no longer the Lian I used to be. What’s left is someone colder. Hungrier. Someone who learned too young that love is just another lie…
