    Summary

    “Then I’ll see you later?” Lumine says, undeterred by his silence.

    “Hm.”

    She laughs at his reticence. “That’s not much of an answer.”

    Xiao considers her offer. Balances duty against desire, karma against hope…. But something must be too heavy, because he relents to her will. “You need only call my name.”

    It is not a promise, nor is it an agreement. But it is something and it is enough, for Lumine smiles in response.

    The five times that Xiao does not touch Lumine, and the one time he does.

    Alternatively: The five times that Lumine waits, and the one time she does not.

    Summary

    For the first time since he could remember, the court was as silent as the corpse behind him.
    He was alone.
    His master was dead.
    And the one who killed her was coming.

    He once had his name and freedom taken away by a god...

    What are the consequences when a god gives both back?

    Summary

    Lumine is a busy university student, juggling her classes, voluntary work and spending as much time as possible with the people who matter the most to her. With a steady long-term relationship, a close circle of friends and career goals set clearly in her mind, she believes her life is on the right track to pan out just the way she has planned.

    Xiao, although withdrawn and a kind to keep to himself, has somehow earned himself an infamous reputation of being a womaniser. Not keen on leaning into the negativity of the university gossip, he spends his days honing his biggest passion - music. Between writing songs and listening to his beloved vinyls, he leads a somewhat uneventful existence as a first-year student.

    Leading their everydayness on two polar opposite sides of the university experience, their paths have never been designed to cross in any way - until one brief meeting, when they discover they have more in common than they could suspect.

    Summary

    It is bliss when Lumine and Xiao finally start sleeping in the same bed – it is warmth, and peace, and comfort, something they've both been craving. But the more time passes, the more a strange feeling emerges: why are their dreams suddenly so vivid? And why do their contents seem so similar?
