Summary
“I always thought you hated me,” Max says suddenly.
Charles doesn’t answer right away. His stride falters like the words caught him off guard. “I thought you didn’t care what people thought of you,” he says eventually, his voice measured.
“I don’t,” Max replies, too fast, too defensive. Then he hesitates. “But you—” His fingers twitch at his sides, restless. He stops himself, irritated.
Charles turns to him fully now, brow furrowed. “But I what?”
Max clenches his jaw. He doesn’t want to say it. He doesn’t want to admit it—but you knew me. You understood me better than anyone else. And you still couldn't like me.
So instead, he shrugs. “Doesn’t matter.”

Or, Charles has spent all his childhood trying to prove he isn't like Max. Building a car together makes him realize he might've been wrong all along.

Summary
Charles arrives unexpectedly at a small, elite university in Switzerland—a place reserved for the world’s wealthiest and most powerful families—and his sudden transfer immediately draws attention. Determined to keep a low profile and separate his past from his present, he instead finds himself at the center of whispered speculation, volatile friendships, and drama that just can't seem to leave him alone. As buried secrets threaten to surface, Charles soon realizes that in a school built on privilege and silence, he may not be the only one with something to hide.
It also doesn't help that there's some anonymous stalker threatening to out each and every secret ruminating in the school's walls.

Summary
Oscar doesn’t remember faces. Anyone’s. He doesn’t remember when it started. Maybe it had always been like this. He vaguely recalls crying in his mother’s arms, asking if it was normal. He remembers doctors asking if he just saw blurry shapes instead of faces, but he couldn’t answer. Because he didn’t see that. But he didn’t see anything either.
Lando is afraid of life as an adult. Life in society. Life outside the hospital walls, where he spent the last five years. It’s like he’s starting over, like someone split him off from his old life. Like he died in the hospital and was resurrected the moment he left.

Summary
Max has always been a protector, it’s just who he is.
Ever since he was five years old and his mother placed a bundle of blankets in his arms with his tiny baby brother nestled inside, Max knew, deep down in a place no one could ever reach, that he was never going to let anything, or anyone, hurt him.
And he didn’t.
He stopped Lando from walking face-first into furniture when he first started toddling around. He hugged him close when nightmares clawed their way into his dreams. He checked under the bed for monsters and made-up silly voices in stories until Lando’s giggles filled the room like sunlight. That was their world, small, safe, full of warmth and laughter.
Then the world ended.
——
When the world ended Max didn’t have much time for anyone else, he was to busy keeping his little brother Lando alive. But when they find safety and a boy, Charles, comes along Max learns how to let someone in for the first time in years. Through the destruction of there world they learn to lean on each and that trust sometimes creates a bond that goes beyond words, it’s one that can only be built from ruin.*prequel to ashes and blood*
