The last thing he expected was that one kiss with a stranger would turn his world upside down. Jun-Ho was cold, dangerous, a mafia heir and scarred by a past that made him reject any kind of touch. He had never felt desire. Never wanted anyone. Until Salin. One kiss changed everything. Fear turned into craving. A frozen body stirred. But Jun-Ho didn’t know how to deal with it, so he made an offer Salin couldn’t refuse: “Pretend to be my fiancé. In return, your debt disappears.” Salin agreed. Because he had to. But also... because he wanted to. Jun-Ho’s gaze promised pleasure. His touch trembled. And Salin wanted more. But Jun-Ho wanted too, and couldn’t act on it. And that slowly tore them both apart. Salin teased, surrendered, backed off, then tried again. Jun-Ho burned, torn between fear and longing. Between panic and pleasure. And when the touch finally happened… it was too much. Intense.

《Love You as a Love Song》 — A love that plays on repeat. In a world where everything moves fast — love, messages, breakups — she met a man who still lived like a vinyl record: slow, soulful, and deliberate. Simon has no Instagram, no TikTok, and no interest in social trends. He reads real books, brews his own coffee, and dreams of a quiet life on a sheep farm in Scotland. She thought it would be a fleeting crush. But that text — "The door's unlocked." — was the beginning of something far deeper. Between two-week shifts at a remote mining camp and a long-planned trip to Colombia, she and Simon navigate a rhythm of missed calls, shared books, awkward silences, and stolen kisses. This isn’t a whirlwind romance. It’s something quieter, deeper, like a song you play on repeat when the world gets too loud. A slow-burn love story about distance, timing, and two people learning to speak the same emotional language — one message at a time.

"A world of magic. A mind of machine. A bond that defies fate." In a world where magic and technology have fused into a single force, every child awakens their power at the age of ten. For Kael, that day should’ve marked the rise of mana within him. Instead, he hears a voice—cold, precise... artificial. An AI awakens inside his mind. But this isn't some basic tool—it thinks, learns, evolves. A sentient entity, carrying knowledge long lost to the ages. Secrets buried beneath ancient systems, truths that challenge the very foundations of their world. As Kael navigates this strange new reality, he begins walking a path no one has dared to tread—melding magic with machine, reason with instinct, code with will. But he is not alone. A rival watches from the shadows—a reincarnated soul burdened by a lifetime of regret and an obsession with power. Their clash is more than fate—it is destiny. And beyond them both, something stirs—a force older than magic, deeper than code. To survive in a world that fears what it cannot control, Kael must redefine power, reshape destiny, and question the very nature of being. Because in a world built on rules... he was born to break them. --- If you enjoy the story and want to support the author (or help him buy a laptop so he can keep creating), consider buying him a coffee: ko-fi.com/echoesofvoid
