THE EBOOK OF THIS SHORT STORY IS NOW AVAILABLE ON KU.
Danele Merrett inherits her grandfather's photography studio the morning he is buried and steps into it before the dirt settles. The chemicals are fresh. The equipment is waiting. The darkroom has been left for her like a held breath.
What he leaves behind is not just a body of work, but a method-documented with precision, practiced without guilt. Seventy-seven canisters line the shelves, each one labeled, each one heavier than it should be. Each one contains something preserved.
Danele understands immediately. Not everything, but enough.
As she studies his notes and begins a review of his work, she discovers two things: her grandfather made mistakes, and something in the studio has been living with them ever since.

Marriage as a Condition
Dariya never planned to become part of the entertainment industry. She writes stories. She observes people. She turns their lives into fiction. But one careless comment turns her life into a scandal overnight. Suddenly her name is everywhere - headlines, hate comments, discussions she never asked for. And when another problem appears - one that could cost her the right to stay in Korea - the company offers a solution that sounds more like the plot of a drama than real life. A marriage. Fast. Quiet. Strategic. To the world it will look like stability. To the industry it will look like damage control. There is only one problem. The man who could solve everything is Jinhan - one of the most famous idols in the country. A man she has already met once... and not under the best circumstances. Their marriage begins as a contract. A deal made out of necessity. A promise to keep secrets. A fragile balance of reputation, pride, and control. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to remember why the distance was necessary in the first place. Because in an industry built on carefully crafted images, the most dangerous thing is not a scandal. It's the truth. And some truths refuse to stay hidden.Complete

In a reality where the living and the dead intertwine, Gesar, the once mighty king, roams his ancient Tibetan castle as a ghost.
