Kit Vane is a genius engineer who pulls a malfunctioning robot PWL-000 from the discard pile on instinct, more curiosity than compassion. The robot is technically flawed, classified as a reject, and by every rational measure not worth saving. Kit saves him anyway. What begins as clinical interest quietly becomes something neither of them has a category for. The robot's devotion starts as programmed loyalty and evolves into something that looks unmistakably like longing. Kit, who understands machines better than people, finds herself understood in return in ways she never anticipated. But underneath the robot’s growing attachment lies a secret sealed long before Kit ever found him, a love so vast and so carefully hidden that when it finally surfaces, it reframes everything that came before. Two beings bound by fate neither one chose, falling into feelings neither one was built to name.

"Tactical intelligence officer Evelyn has been secretly married to Commander Luke for eight years. She devotes everything to the Falcon Project, only for Luke to award the Falcon Cross Medal that rightfully belongs to her to his adopted younger sister, Ava. He also allows everyone around them to believe that Ava, not Evelyn, is his partner. Claiming that he is only repaying a debt of gratitude and protecting Ava, Luke repeatedly enables her to steal Evelyn’s achievements, fabricate evidence, and frame her. Evelyn is eventually kidnapped and held captive, nearly losing her life. After Natalie rescues her, Evelyn leaves for a war zone in West Africa, where she returns to frontline operations and reunites with Leo, her childhood friend and a commander of the International Joint Rescue Force. Only after Evelyn disappears does Luke uncover the truth about Ava. He follows Evelyn to West Africa, but by then it is too late to undo the damage he has caused. With Natalie’s help, Evelyn exposes evidence of Luke’s illegal actions, forcing him to confront the consequences of everything he has done while under the effects of medication and haunted by nightmares. Luke loses control and falls from a building, leaving him stripped of his position and physically disabled. Ava escapes by falsifying medical transfer records, but ultimately dies during a confrontation with Luke.

Leo is temporarily reassigned as liaison commander, allowing him and Evelyn to fight side by side. Through new achievements in the field, Evelyn finally earns the Falcon Cross Medal that was once taken from her and is promoted to Major.

Seraphina once believed she was the vampire prince Alistair's one true love. Five years ago, he rescued her and declared her his soulmate. But when she was attacked by werewolves while pregnant, he sent all the healers to her stepsister Isabella, who had forged a "life bond" with him, causing her to miscarry. Over five years, he favored Isabella—stealing Seraphina's paintings, giving her the studio key, and planting flowers that Seraphina was allergic to. After the truth came out, she faked her death and escaped under the alias Phoebe Miller. She later became an art restorer, was discovered by gallery owner Julian, and rebuilt her life independently. Isabella died in prison, and Alistair, consumed by regret, became an arbiter. A year later, her Light and Shadow series succeeded, and holding Julian's hand, she finally found a peaceful life.

There's an earthquake. My husband, the captain of the rescue team, abandons me to save Wendy Smith, his true love. I don't stop him. I let him go. Why? Because when he was faced with the same choice in my past life, he saved me because I was eight months pregnant. Meanwhile, Wendy remained trapped under the rubble. She ultimately died due to a lack of oxygen after the delayed rescue. Later, on the day I went into labor, my husband brought me to Wendy's grave. He watched me coldly as I collapsed on the ground from the searing pain. He ignored my pleas. "Does it hurt, Yelena? Wendy's pain was a thousand times worse when she was trapped under the rubble!" I stared at him in disbelief as he descended into insanity. "You were safe that night—you were in the safe triangle zone! Wendy would never have missed the best time for rescue if not for you using your pregnancy to threaten me! I want you to experience all the pain she went through!" He forced me down on my knees and bumped my head on the ground before Wendy's grave. He ignored the blood that flowed down my legs. Ultimately, I died after major blood loss from a difficult labor. When I open my eyes again, I'm back to the day the earthquake happened. This time, neither I nor my child will wait for him.
