At the Academy of Magic, Rick is nothing but an outcast-mocked by classmates, scorned by teachers, and branded as "The Dumpster Rat." All he ever wanted was to prove himself worthy of the magic he struggles to master. But when a spell gone wrong breathes life into a suit of armor, Rick discovers more than a guardian: he finds a friend, a confidant, and perhaps something even deeper. Yet in a world where ghosts and golems blur the line between life and death, love and illusion, Rick must fight not only for his place in the academy but for the very right of his newfound companion to exist.

Steve despises being touched in that abyss where he grew up. Allowing people there to touch him meant allowing himself to endure pain. And Steve hates pain. He endured it for a long time simply because he was weak. But one day, he realized that he could no longer endure it, that it was better to die than to allow someone to hurt him again. The fact that he ended up here in this place was a fatal mistake. Steve, in his past, but the one who captured him, is in the present.

A quiet house. A past that won't let go. And two men who could burn it all down. Kai never asked for much - just a quiet home of his own. But the past clings like smoke, and the house he's building can't keep the ghosts out. Caught between betrayal, a city that suffocates him, and two men as different as night and day - Samson, reckless and burning, and Dmitry, cold and immovable - Kai has no choice but to face the one thing he's been running from all his life: himself. This isn't a love story. It's about scars, survival, and the fragile hope that one day a house can become a home.
