# ✦ *The Last Issue Before Dawn* ### By Jai Kav Inside the glass walls of **MONARCH**, beauty is treated like religion and exhaustion is worn like couture. When Xiao Zhan arrives at the prestigious fashion magazine as the final candidate no one expected to survive the industry, he enters a world ruled by impossible deadlines, artistic perfection, and the cold brilliance of MONARCH's Creative Director, Wang Yibo. Detached, meticulous, and emotionally untouchable, Yibo has spent years transforming fashion into carefully controlled distance. But Xiao Zhan sees things other people ignore. The loneliness hidden inside collections. The exhaustion behind perfection. The quiet ache beneath luxury. As MONARCH prepares its most important issue of the year, the two men are drawn into a relationship neither of them knows how to resist. Late-night editorials become intimate conversations. Runway concepts begin carrying emotional truths too dangerous to name. And somewhere between gold-lit photoshoots, rain against glass windows, and sleepless nights inside the editorial offices, MONARCH slowly stops feeling like work. Meanwhile, the fashion industry remains obsessed with an anonymous critic known only as **Jun_sim0501991** - a mysterious online voice feared for devastating reviews and impossible honesty. No designer escapes Jun's scrutiny, not even Wang Yibo himself. But some reviews are more personal than they appear. Set against the glittering brutality of the fashion world, *The Last Issue Before Dawn* is a slow-burning story about art, loneliness, emotional vulnerability, and two people learning how to be seen without fear. Beneath couture, controversy, and creative obsession lies a quieter truth: Some collections are inspired by love. Others are created by people already inside it.

[Book One of The Vichiorggio Mafia Trilogy] Alvaro All my life I knew I'd one day become Don of the Vichiorggio Famiglia, I knew who I was, and what I needed to be to best all who opposed the Famiglia. I could predict my enemies moves, and manipulate every secret to my whim. The one thing I couldn't predict, was her. I was given the daughter of another Famiglia to unify the East Coast, a beacon of light in the world of darkness, and death. I had vowed to give myself and my loyalty and honour to La Cosa Nostra, to the Famiglia. But somewhere along the line she put that to the test. Anastasia I'd heard the rumours about him, that he was cold and cruel, that anyone who opposed the Famiglia feared him. I was told I'd be given to him as his wife, to honour and respect him, and to unite our families. The Mafia is no place for love, or kindness, it was taught to be nonexistent in the hearts of made men. And I expected no less from my husband, but somehow his coldness towards me in our marriage was worse. Yet I wasn't willing to give up on him, not as his Famiglia crumbled around him, not when there was a chance for me, for us. And if I was going to have more in this life, I'd honour the vows we spoke to one another on our wedding day, even if it meant for better or for worse.

But it all seems to be speaking so loud. And yet they still consume me and endow. Don't they know what they're doing to me? Aren't they aware of the fear? It was once hidden, but now they know. "C'mon yo, you've got to be kid'n!" They joke, but I find no humor in the acts I take par. "Man, what did I get myself into?" It all makes sense what my momma was trying to reassure. "That my darling, is The Act Of Peer Pressure."
