-Ashes Of Us- The past that burned away after Gwi Ma's defeat, yet something lingers. -Synopsis- Gwi Ma is gone. The war is over. The Honmoon stronger than the ever. The Saja Boys - once demon with haunting pasts bound by fate - now live as ordinary human, their memories wiped clean, their pasts erased like they never existed. To him, Rumi is just another face in the crowd. But to Rumi, he is everything she lost... He was fire and fury, tenderness and chaos - the boy who once held her heart in the midst of chaos. Now, he looks at her with eyes that no longer know her name... and yet, every glance lingers a second too long, every word stumbles like his heart remembers what his mind cannot. Rumi should walk away. She should let him live in peace, in blissful ignorance. But love doesn't forget, even when memories do. So she stays silent, loving him from the sidelines, haunted by a love that once burned bright and now flickers in the shadows. But fate isn't finished with them yet - and some bonds, no matter how deeply buried, refuse to be broken and forgotten. Where one soul lives in the present, while another is haunted by their past.

|𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐆| - arranged marriage - slow-burn - plot twists - philosophical ideas - no spice 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐲𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐚𝐟𝐢𝐚 𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤. This story explores themes of autonomy, survival, class, power, psychology and love. In short, it is a philosophically based book, set around a mafia setting with a slow-burn romance/arranged marriage trope. It focuses on main characters as individuals first, allowing them to share thoughts on how they view the world, and how their experiences shape their development along with the storyline. ~~~ 𝐀𝐃𝐎𝐑𝐀 𝐋𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈 always knew her fate was to marry rich - to save her family from poverty, even if it meant sacrificing herself. But when her abusive father sells her to the powerful Alvarez family, she realizes she hasn't been promised to a wealthy heir... she's been sold to the mob. Yet, for the first time, Adora tastes freedom away from her suffocating home. In a mansion full of rules, danger, and shadows, she clings to her independence - even when it puts her at odds with those who now control her future. 𝐒𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐆𝐎 𝐀𝐋𝐕𝐀𝐑𝐄𝐙, the reluctant new head of the Spanish Mafia, has been raised to care about nothing but power. But he despises the bloodstained world his father built. He only finds solace in books - the one place he can breathe. When Adora enters his world, fiery and unbroken despite her past, Santiago discovers someone who understands him in ways no one else ever could. But in a house where loyalty is currency and secrets can kill, their connection might cost them everything. Is it possible for two enigmatic people to fall in love? Or perhaps their fate lies within the world around them. Rankings: #1 in immersive - 26/11/25 #1 in socialhierarchy - 26/11/25 #1 in flirt - 21/3/26 #1 in classics - 28/1/26 #3 in dark

The Riders Quadrant at Basgiath War College is the most boasted quadrant of them all. Also the most deadly. Kathrine Riorson has known for five years that this is where she'd end up, thanks to a desperate bargain made by her older brother the day their father was executed. Thrust into this new world where brutality and strength reign supreme right along side the giant fire-breathing dragons, Kitt will have to navigate through Conscription Day and Threshing. Through old memories and still-healing wounds. Through new friendships and new love. All the while an evil lurks just beneath the surface, threatening to destroy everything she has come to cherish. Kitt will be faced with demons both in the flesh and within her own mind. But Kitt is a Riorson. And she will not break easily. _____ "Anyone else feel like changing their mind?" Xaden shouts, casting his gaze out over the remaining cadets. "No? Excellent. Roughly half of you will be dead by this time next summer. A third of you again the year after that. And the same your last year." He briefly catches my gaze before moving on. "No one cares who your mommy or daddy is here." Unless your mommy or daddy sided with my father, then everyone cares. "Even King Tauri's second son died during his Threshing. So tell me again: Do you feel invincible now that you've made it into the Riders Quadrant? Untouchable? Elite?" This time no one cheers. "Because you're not untouchable or special to them." Xaden points a finger at the navy-blue dragon behind him and leans forward slightly, and says, deadly calm, "To them, you're just the prey." I swallow the lump in my throat. He's trying to scare us, they all are, so the dragons know who to pick off. But I will not let any of them win. I may not have had a choice in coming to the Riders Quadrant, but now that I'm here, the only way I'm leaving is on the back of a dragon.

I really loved Twisted Hate by Ana Haung. Book indeed never described their wedding and kids. So I made an attempt to write it's extensions. NOTE:- Ana Haung mentioned Jules and Josh in kings of Greed so I am taking those moments in consideration for writting. . . . All characters are Ana Haung's I own nothing.
