When its master is gone, can a human furnace live as a person?
I am a pure yin constitution furnace, solely for the demonic sect master to use. But then shizun killed the sect master and took me home, and he said, "From now on, you are not a furnace. You are my disciple."
A short story about found family, recovery, and new beginnings.
(The romance lines are teacher x rogue cultivator, disciple x disciple)
Context for readers: this story breaks down a common trope in cultivation stories found in Chinese fantasy, namely, the idea of a "human cauldron" or human furnace. In these stories, engaging in 'dual cultivation' (that is, intercourse) with someone of opposite traits from yourself can increase your strength of cultivation. Human furnaces are people with whom dual cultivating is especially beneficial. They often suffer tragic fates. The protagonist in this story is someone who has been raised as a human furnace, without understanding of his own worth as a human being. The novel explores his healing and growth as he learns to live freely with the support of his teacher and friends. While this is a slice-of-life story that focuses on daily living and emotion, it touches on darker concepts within the protagonist's psychology and memories. Please take care while reading.

Book 2 in Stray Series. I know I'm not worthy of a second chance. I've taken away so many others' second chances. I took their lives in my hands and each time chose mine over theirs. It didn't matter who they were, if they had family, how old they were. I had a job to do. If I heard even a whisper, it was over. I had to. I didn't want to, but I had to. It didn't even matter in the end. She's gone now. I'm all alone. Somehow, for some reason, a second chance was bestowed on me. But I don't want it. I can't have it. And he knows it too. -This story has depictions of violence, SA, depression, panic attacks, gore.

When he's sent on an assignment to gather intel on an illegal trafficking ring in his city, he wasn't prepared for his heart to start beating once again in his stone cold chest after laying his eyes on the blond Adonis beating his opponent to a bloody pulp in the fighting cage. After being orphaned at the age of 13, Dante was shipped off to a group home where he was raised till he chaptered out of the foster system.

Five years later, he's a shell of his old self, going through the motions and just trying to survive.

Mark of the Wolf (mxm)
Alone. Naked. Cold. Covered in blood that is just as likely to be mine as someone else's. I don't know who I am, where I am, or what I'm running from. All I get are flashes, snippets of dark shadows, sneering faces. Pain always follows these nightmares, these memories. I was found, taken in, but I have no way of knowing if I only escaped the frying pan just to jump into the fire. I don't understand these people, these wolves. They don't understand me, either. Our words mean nothing to each other, they're no more than sounds. We use gestures, facial expressions, body language like the beasts we seem to be. I can only pray these beasts are not the same ones I'm running from. -This story has depictions of violence, depression, panic attacks, gore.

Wings of deceit
A tale of love not told in the light, but a tale told in the shadows. Of broken chains and bleeding hearts learning how to beat again. Once a slave, always a slave. It didn't matter how much you'd like to deny the fact; it wasn't possible. One couldn't outrun fate and time itself. No one was born free. So why did everyone seek freedom, despite knowing it was unobtainable? The reason was simple: because it hurt to live being chained. Building trust with a person who has known hell itself all their life wasn't bound to be easy or pretty. Hidden beneath the layers can hide the cruelest things. A past a person would want to forever bury. He wore a mask to survive. But what happens when someone sees through it? 'He was supposed to be a savior. Instead, he unearthed every buried scar that I swore no one would ever see.' For a moment he hated having his scars being unveiled. But after a while, he noticed that wasn't the case. ------------ This story explores themes of trauma, emotional healing, and much more sensitive themes. Reader discretion is advised. (If you read all this you can skip the part that says: "Part I: Unearthing buried scars.")
