A café owner in his family's hotel, he's used to keeping to himself-but a couple of months ago, his life was shaken in a way that still haunts him. When their paths cross, neither of them expects sparks... or the chance to heal. Can Aaliyah open her heart again, or has she already lost her chance at love? And can Nicolas heal from the pain that still lingers? [Rankings] #1 convert

Living under the roof of a bitter stepmother and a father too distracted to see the truth, her only source of strength is her little sister. But in a house where love feels like a luxury, Aisha is seen as a burden - one her stepmother is desperate to get rid of, through marriage.

Sent on a simple errand by his mother, he meets a girl who is too young for his world... and yet somehow, already living a life heavier than most adults. She's not ready. He's not willing. But life rarely waits for readiness. Held By Him is a story of age gaps, unexpected bonds, and the unraveling of guarded hearts. Follow the journey of Aisha and Ahmad - where mystery, pain, and fate collide in ways they never imagined. --- 21/10/25🌺
