Alizey Tariq. Eighteen years old.
The light of every room she walked into.
The daughter every parent dreamed of, the sister every brother bragged about, and the friend everyone wished they had. Sweet. Innocent. Untouched by the dark realities of the world, living a life surrounded by love, laughter, and the kind of naivety that made her glow like a star in a moonless sky.
She thought she knew what life was. She had no idea her real story was just about to begin.
Khizer Shahid. Thirty years old.
A man feared by many and loved by none.
CEO by day, Mafia king by night.
The world bowed to him - businessmen, politicians, criminals - yet he stood utterly alone, untouched by affection, incapable of tenderness. Life had carved him from stone, heartless and merciless, after a childhood drenched in blood and betrayal.
At least, that's what he believed.
Khizer wasn't looking for love. He didn't even believe he deserved it.
But fate - cruel, merciless fate - had other plans.
---
It started with a simple favor. Pick up his best friend's little sister from her university.
A girl he hadn't even met before.
A favor that would shatter everything he thought he knew about control, about power, about who he was.
Because when Khizer Shahid's eyes landed on Alizey Tariq for the first time, it wasn't curiosity he felt. It wasn't interest.
It was possession.
Pure, primal, undeniable.
In that single moment, he decided:
She would be his.
No matter what it took.
By hook or by crook.
By love or by hatred.
He would tear down the world to have her, and God help anyone who stood in his way.
When the cold-hearted beast finds himself bound to a childlike beauty...
When complaints turn into pleas,
When pain turns into an addiction,
When hatred threatens to destroy what little love they have built,
When the past refuses to stay buried,
When the cost of loyalty is betrayal...
Will he be able to hold onto her?
Or will he lose the only salvation he ever had?
