✨ Introducing "The Valdai Romance" (Валдайский Романс) — A 19th-Century Queer & Asexual Canon ✨
Too often, historical narratives erase the quiet, burning intensity of asexual love. I wrote this story to reclaim it.
About the Canon:
A story of fierce tenderness and tactile passion between a young Cleveland gentleman of ancient blood and a mysterious Valdai herbalist. In an alternative 19th century, these two men — who by all laws of chance should never have met — are thrust together by fate.
Their world is woven from endless kisses, lingering embraces, and a sensory intimacy so dense it needs no sexual act to be complete. From this devotion, they build a home and a family where none seemed possible, proving that love is not a script to be followed, but a life to be shared.It is a slow-burn, emotional MLM fiction exploring toric and asexual spectrum dynamics where love burns hotter without sex. This project is also part of my broader mission: reclaiming the Russian language for queer narratives that are currently suppressed, and bridging them with global queer experiences.
📚 Bilingual & Free Experience:
I am thrilled to share that the first 50 chapters of this canon are now available to read on Medium completely for free.The text is presented in a bilingual format (Russian & English). Whether you want to immerse yourself in the story, immerse yourself in Russian-English expression, or use it as an engaging tool to practice and learn Russian or English, this format is designed to bridge global queer experiences.

I’m Xeni Davyd, a queer author of "The Valdai Romance" and asexual romantic prose, showing that love can burn hotter without sex.
I write primarily in Russian, with bilingual Russian-English expression. My romances focus on touch, closeness, and emotional intensity – hugs, kisses, tender gestures, and the raw heat of connection. Too often, asexual love is dismissed as bland or invisible. I write to prove it is anything but – powerful, passionate, and profoundly alive.I craft Queer & Literary Fiction, diving deep into the subtle psychology of Slow Burn and Emotional Romance. I am dedicated to exploring the LGBTQIA+ spectrum in both languages, reclaiming the Russian language for queer narratives that are currently suppressed, and bridging them with global queer experiences.
Key Themes & Dynamics:
🏳️🌈 Identity & Attraction: Love between boys, young adults, and men (MLM / Achillean), as well as Non-binary characters and Enby x Man (NBLM) dynamics. My stories explore Toric and Viramoric perspectives with deep empathy.
💜 Asexual Spectrum: Asexual Romance, Homoromantic / Androromantic Ace experiences, Alloromantic Asexual narratives, and the nuances of being a Sensual Ace.
✨ Intimacy Beyond the Sexual: A focus on soft intimacy, skin hunger, tactile joy, heavy cuddling, and the vital importance of physical affection.
⚖️ Love Reimagined: Queerplatonic Relationships (QPR), Relationship Anarchy, Egalitarian Love, and the beauty of Balanced Power.
🕊️ Mission: Reclaiming the Russian language for queer narratives that are currently suppressed.
I believe in Asexual Hedonism and the aesthetics of the moment - from simmering Emotional Tension to the "Finality of a Kiss" (Kissing As Climax). My characters seek Equal Footing and solidarity, transforming Sensual Non-sexual closeness into a supreme form of passion.

This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal el-Mohtar and Max Gladstone is a beautiful book about romance between two time-travelling agents fighting on opposite sides of the time war. The whole story is told by alternating between their viewpoints as they discover and read the letters planted in discrete locations for each other, and we get to see how they slowly fall in love with each other.
It's such a beautifully written book. Hats off to Amal and Max because they really crushed it with this one. The writing is so good, it made me feel dumb! I will definitely have to re-read this one at some point!
I did see a couple reviews criticising the book for its lack of worldbuilding, or any explanation of the technology they're using, but I think doing that would have been too jarring. The story is chiefly a romance and it does a very good job of it. If the characters were having their inner dialogue thinking about each other or whatever assignment they had from their superiors, and the story randomly jumped into an explanation of the technology they're using, it would have detracted from the main point of the story.
Anyway, sorry about this rambly post. I highly recommend this for anyone who likes time travel or scifi in general, or enemies-to-lovers romance fiction (or lesbian romance!)
