Summary
Alec Lightwood lost three years, a name he once said like a prayer, and the shape of the life that held him.
Now, with a limp he didn’t earn and memories that won’t return, he is trying to stitch together something that feels like living—physiotherapy, wine-stained Friday dinners, polite conversations that feel like performances.
But when a stranger’s hand brushes his in a quiet grocery aisle, something in him stirs. Not a memory—something older. Something deeper.
A story of love after forgetting. And the quiet ache of being known by someone you can’t remember.

Everyone expects him to choose Isabelle.
He chooses Alec—nineteen, fearless, reckless, and the youngest Head of an Institute.

But the truth might hurt more than any lie.
Just say it, he thought. Say you want Izzy and get this over with.

A beat.

Summary
“Mr. Miyagi, I think this is—wait. Wait. What?!”
Johnny turned his head and nearly choked on his gum. Standing in the aisle like he’d just seen a ghost was none other than Daniel freakin’ LaRusso.
“Oh, come on,” LaRusso said finally, hands flopping dramatically at his sides. “What is he doing here?”
Johnny raised his eyebrows, biting back a smirk. “What am I doing here? I could ask you that. I was here first, princess.”
LaRusso looked at Mr. Miyagi, wide-eyed and utterly betrayed. “You invited him?”
“Hai. No need for drama.”
“No need for—” LaRusso stopped and tried again. “He... he’s like... he bullied me, remember that?”
Johnny groaned. “Oh my god. That was, like, months ago. Get over it, LaRusso.”
All Johnny meant to do was thank Mr. Miyagi for saving his life. He didn’t expect it to turn into an accidental trip to Okinawa with Daniel LaRusso.

Summary
“Perhaps I am simply waiting for the right moment,” Stavrogin mused, with a contemplative air, as though he could only guess at his own motives. “Perhaps I will throw you out, or call for help, the instant you have compromised yourself.”
“You might,” Verkhovensky agreed enthusiastically. “You might wait until I have kissed not only your hand but also your thigh, until I’ve crawled between your knees to lay my head in your lap, and call for help then. You might do it, even if doing so would ruin your life, as well.”
“Yet knowing all that, you've come to me anyway.”
“Of course,” Verkhovensky answered, beginning to lose his breath, “because I wish very much to find out what you will do next; and if your decision is to tear down your own life alongside mine, to wed us together in disgrace, then — I could hardly be disappointed with that, could I?”
━━━━━━━━━━
Fleeing on a train toward Switzerland, Verkhovensky reunites with Stavrogin, and finally gets exactly what he asks for.
Set in the space between the novel’s final chapter and epilogue.
