Graphic Novel The Coldest City นิยาย & เรื่องราว

she mumbled, taking half-steps to approach the man and ensure what was happening with Richie. Sharlynn tilted her head, observing his face. Suddenly, she smiled as she moved each inch of his face. She smirked when still moving every inch of his face. Curved eyelashes with thick eyebrows that almost merged with the curvature indicated the man's deep sleep. "You're handsome, but unfortunately, like the icebergs in the North and South Poles..." Sharlynn paused her sentence to take in as much oxygen as possible. "I can't stand your temperature; it's too cold. Polar bear!"

“My first picture in Paris.” Before he could even agree, I turned my back on the hotel and made a peace sign. “Your enthusiasm is cute.” He chuckled as he took snapshots of me. “It’s going to make this trip a lot more exciting.” I blushed. Even just being around William was exciting for me, not to mention being in the city of love with him. Unlike New York, William wasn’t a famous person in Paris. We couldn’t enjoy our time here without the fear of being followed or photographed.

he said simply. “You better not die,” Storm snapped. “You better not die,” I told him. We stepped into the night like thieves, but our footsteps carried the weight of an army. The river gleamed like a strip of silver under the moon; the current hissed against the rocks as though warning us back. I crouched at the bank and tested the water with my hand — colder than stone, sharp enough to sting. “Fast and quiet,” I whispered. Storm slipped into the water first, cloaked; Jack followed. I waited until Milo was in before I stepped in — the cold cutting through every muscle, but I forced my breath steady. The water swallowed us, carrying away the sound of our movements. We reached the far side dr

He was dragging a sled loaded with repurposed thermal padding, his movements heavy and deliberate. "The infirmary? You mean the stone box with the holes in the roof? Sofia is in there trying to keep five hundred people from turning into statues while you and I are out here playing pack-mules," Nomo snapped, standing up with a groan. His joints screamed in protest, the cold penetrating deep into his marrow. He looked out through the hangar doors at the city of Eldergloom. It was no longer a city of orange nectar and indigo light. It was a white graveyard. The natural winter—a season the city hadn't felt in a century—had descended with a predatory hunger.

Nyxara The door to my apartment slammed behind me so hard the frame rattled, the sound echoing through the empty space like a gunshot in my chest. I didn’t bother turning on the lights. Why would I? Brightness wouldn’t fix this. It wouldn’t chase away the shadows clinging to me, the ones that felt like they were seeping into my bones, turning everything inside cold and heavy. The city bled through the floor-to-ceiling windows in cold silver streaks—streetlamps flickering like dying stars, neon signs pulsing with false promises of warmth, the distant glow of the frozen docks mocking me with their indifference.

“That rain came out of nowhere.” “It usually does,” Charlotte replied, forcing a polite smile. Her phone buzzed again. Nathan: Coffee. Same place as usual. Charlotte laughed under her breath; short, humorless. “Unbelievable,” she muttered, but she turned anyway towards the café. She arrived back at the office soaked, damp paperwork tucked safely in her bag, coffee balanced carefully in one hand, suit protected like a fragile secret. The security guard raised an eyebrow. “Rough morning?” “You have no idea,” she replied.

"The supplies are here. Frozen but intact. But Catherine, the city... Manhattan is gone." Silence. "Define 'gone,'" Catherine said carefully. "I mean there's nothing left. No lights. No movement. No smoke from fires or generators. Nothing. The buildings are standing but they're frozen solid. Ice coating everything. Bodies in the streets. Thousands of them. Maybe more." Marcus's voice cracked. "It's a graveyard. The whole city is a graveyard." Maya felt the shelter collectively hold its breath. "Any signs of survivors?" Catherine asked. "None. We can see for blocks in every direction. Nothing moves. Nothing lives. It's just... empty."

After that, I hung up first and stared blankly at the photos in my hands. I had no idea how long had passed. Outside, it seemed like a heavy storm had started. Rain hammered against the roof in a relentless roar. In the darkness, Vincent’s voice suddenly echoed faintly in my ears, as if from a distant past. “Christine, do you not like New York winters because it doesn’t snow heavily? Then from now on, every winter, I’ll take you somewhere with snow, like the Alps, Norway, or Iceland.” Longyearbyen was the northernmost city in the world, six thousand kilometers away from New York. It was a place where it snowed all year round, with endless snow.

I was tired of being a ghost in a mansion that smelled of old money and cold stone. Ever since my father, Fernando Navarro, used my mother’s medical bills at St. Mary’s Private Hospital to sell me into this "political union," I had been a captive in a gilded cage. Sebastian Blackwood was a man of ice and iron—the star captain of the Manchester Ice Kings and the heir to a fortune, yet he possessed the emotional range of a glacier. "You look... different," Sebastian said, leaning against the doorframe. He hadn't even taken off his coat. His scent—winter air, expensive leather, and the underlying musk of a dominant wolf—flooded the room, making my knees weak.
