In the shadow of the breaking world, a young woman from the Two Rivers is swept into a journey that will shape the fate of the Pattern itself. What begins as an escape from darkness soon becomes a passage into forgotten histories, buried power, and the unyielding pull of destiny. Haunted by strange dreams and drawn to places she's never known, the girl finds herself slowly awakening to a gift she doesn't understand-an uncanny sensitivity to Tel'aran'rhiod, the World of Dreams. Moiraine Damodred, the enigmatic Aes Sedai who leads their small group east, sees more than chance in this girl's path. There's something different about her. Something that makes Moiraine hesitate... and feel. The fate of the world may rest in the hands of the Dragon Reborn-but this girl's fate is tied to another kind of fire. A tale of slow-burning romance with Moiraine, hidden power, and the delicate, devastating threads that bind us.

It was meant to be just a celebration. Nothing more, nothing less - or so Cecilia Roth thought , a German major trying to keep her life simple. She never, in her wildest imagination, would have expected to catch her new professor in unprofessional behavior with one of her former colleagues. Professor Dietrich - feared for her coldness, her discipline, her distance - caught in a moment that changes everything. And professor Dietrich? She doesn't let things slide. Especially not when it comes to Cecilia. Between rebellion and power, emotion and emptiness, a tension begins to grow. A glance turns into something more. A line starts to blur. And maybe, in the end, Cecilia will question more than just her professor.
