Back to the Plains by KristalKlearSky

What do you do when you are ripped from the only life you know? How do you move forward when you have nothing left to live for? Ali awakens one afternoon, dazed and injured in the middle of nowhere with no help in sight. She has no memory of this place, but it feels familiar. Staring death in the face, Ali is ready to give in, but God might have a plan for her after all. She finds herself crossing paths with a reenactment that confuses her as much as it intrigues her. She is suddenly surrounded by strangers who, in their foreign ways, want to help her. After a devastating loss in her past, Ali is skeptical of finding happiness regardless of her location. However, something about a pair of dark eyes captures her attention and she cannot seem to keep herself at a distance. He challenges her in ways she thought no one ever could and he gives her the safety she did not know she needed. With no one left to miss her back home, Ali creates a bond with those around her, while remembering the life she was taken from and the people she has lost. Is it possible to find something she did not know she longed for in such a strange place? Can Ali let go of her pain and allow herself to heal? What if it is all just a dream? What if it is not?

The Coldest Heart by Ji-minniee

Once, she was an open book. Now, Alia is a fortress of ice, built brick by brick with every betrayal she's endured. After being used and broken, she escapes to Seoul, reinventing herself as the "perfect girl"-a calculated, cold-hearted force who wants nothing to do with love. But her past is a shadow that follows, and her carefully constructed walls start to crack when she meets him. He is a man of secrets, a creature of primal instinct living in a world of humans. He came to this land for a reason shrouded in ancient pacts and old bloodlines, and he is as detached from human emotion as she is. Yet, the moment their eyes meet, a forbidden spark ignites. He is drawn to her impenetrable heart; she is terrified by the unknown emotions he awakens. As her past enemies resurface and his own world threatens to collide with hers, Alia must confront the ultimate question: Can a cold heart learn to love a cold-blooded one? Or will their fragile connection shatter, leaving her lost in the darkness forever?
