Kate Elliott’s novellas “Servant Mage” and “Keeper’s Six” are good and the MCs don’t have romantic relationships.

Bujold’s Penric novellas except “Penric’s Mission”, “Mira’s Last Dance” and “The Prisoner of Limnos” – they form a romantic arc for the recurring main character, other books are romance-free and you will not be confused by skipping those three.

*Penric’s Demon* by Lois McMaster Bujold. *Penric’s Mission* and *Mira’s Last Dance* do have some romance but the rest of the Penric novellas don’t.
*The Four Profound Weaves* by R.B. Lemberg.
