Jim Butcher The Cinder Spires

The Warmth of the Sun in the Winter

"They told me the stars could guide me home, but they never said the journey would leave me so utterly lost." Do you still remember your highschool deskmate? The boy with the brightest smile, that girl with the world's most beautiful silhouette? In three years of high school, the shadows of two people intertwine with the chalk, black and white both distinct, drifting around within the memories. The Su Yuanzhou in her memories was an underachiever in high school. He skips class to shoot pool, cheats on his exams and gets into fights. Yet, when she went back to the past she would always surprise herself for seeing a lot of his side, maybe if she did this before he probably wouldn't die. To be able to meet each other on this planet is some kind of fate, and to be able to illuminate our fleeting lives, how fortunate we are. ... Ren Yuxin was trailing behind Su Yuanzhou like a guilty puppy, her face plastered with an exaggerated pout. "Come here," Su Yuanzhou said, stopping in his tracks and turning to look at her. His tone was calm, but the slight twitch in his jaw betrayed his frustration. "Why?" Ren Yuxin asked, her voice overly cautious, taking a step back instead of forward. "Just come here." His patience was running thin. Ren Yuxin crossed her arms and tilted her head dramatically. "No! You’re going to hit me!" Su Yuanzhou froze, staring at her in disbelief. A few students nearby stifled their laughter, pretending not to watch the exchange. "I’m not going to hit you," he said, exasperated. "Do I look like that kind of person?" "Yes." Ren Yuxin nodded solemnly, her eyes wide with mock innocence. Su Yuanzhou sighed, rubbing his temples. How does she manage to drive me insane every single time? His patience—already minimal—was hanging by a thread. "Ren Yuxin," he said, his tone low and dangerous. "Come here. Now." "No way!" she retorted, taking another step back. "I know you’re mad because I—" She paused, looking guilty. "Because you what?" Su Yuanzhou prompted, narrowing his eyes. "... Because I accidentally sent that embarrassing video of you singing in the shower to our group chat," she admitted in a small voice, her eyes darting away. Su Yuanzhou’s face darkened instantly. He felt every shred of his dignity crumbling. "Accidentally?" he repeated, his voice rising. "It really was an accident!" Ren Yuxin protested, raising her hands defensively. "I didn’t mean to press send!" "Accident or not, you’re dead," Su Yuanzhou said, stepping toward her with purpose. "See! You are going to hit me!" she squealed, turning on her heels and running off. "Get back here!" he yelled, chasing after her.

Sold To The Vampire Prince

Felicia Grays, an ordinary young woman living in a world where vampires rule in the shadows, finds her life upended when her family is plunged into debt. Desperate and with no other options, her parents make a heart-wrenching decision: they sell Felicia to Caden Swift, the enigmatic and powerful vampire prince, to pay off their debts. Caden Swift is no ordinary vampire. Known for his cold, calculating nature and ruthless pursuit of power, he is a prince who has long been trapped by the expectations of his royal bloodline. He has little interest in human emotions, seeing them as weaknesses—until he meets Felicia. Forced to live in his luxurious, yet oppressive, castle, Felicia is treated as a commodity rather than a person. But as she navigates this new, dangerous life, she begins to see that Caden is not just the feared vampire prince the world believes him to be. While Caden initially treats Felicia with disdain, he soon finds himself intrigued by her resilience and defiance. She becomes more than just a possession to him—sparking something long buried within his dark heart. As their relationship evolves, the two must confront their growing feelings for each other, while facing external threats from rival vampire factions who seek to use Felicia as leverage against Caden's throne. Caught between duty, desire, and the looming danger surrounding them, Felicia must decide whether to stay loyal to the prince who now owns her, or to escape the dangerous world of vampires altogether. Sold to the Vampire Prince is a gripping tale of forbidden love, power struggles, and the quest for freedom in a world ruled by darkness.
