"It was supposed to be a contract.... But contracts don't set hearts on fire." Nora Hadid's life has always been shadowed by one thing-her deep resentment toward her mother. No one knows the full story, and Nora isn't about to tell. All she knows is that the past has left scars she can't shake. Ayman comes from a world completely different from hers-wealth, rules, and traditions that have shaped him into someone who follows duty over desire. But behind the polished surface, he's trapped under the weight of family expectations he never wanted. When an unexpected twist of fate throws them together, a single contract and one signature bind them to each other in ways neither could have imagined. What starts as an arrangement quickly becomes a tangled web of unspoken truths, dangerous secrets, and emotions they can't explain. As they navigate a path filled with hidden motives, family drama, and a growing attraction they can't ignore, one question looms over them-will this forced alliance be the key to breaking free from the lives they never chose, or will it pull them even deeper into a mess they can't escape? In a world where trust is fragile and nothing is as it seems, Nora and Ayman are about to learn that sometimes, the answers we're searching for hide in the most unlikely places... and with the most unexpected people.

College AU | Rainbow Dash isn't perfect, no matter how much people praise her for her athletic skills, or her captivating smile that made almost every girl blush, or her natural flirtatious behavior. Rainbow had a reputation that consisted of being cocky, flirting, and talking about herself 24/7, but this was the Rainbow that the people in public knew; she suffered in silence. She's not always 100% confident in everything she does, her heart still has scars from abandonment and terrible childhood experiences, she had relationship problems in the past, she was misunderstood, she avoids thinking because it only leads her to becoming emotional, and Rainbow always pushes her emotions away. She smiled in front of everyone like she was fine, but she truly wasn't now was she? During her junior year in college, she meets the most attractive, modest and selfless girl; Applejack, who'd put her friends and family's needs over her own. She was the only one who saw through all of those smiles and her cocky behavior, she saw the real her more than anyone else did. After a little while, Rainbow and Applejack grew strong feelings for each other that meant more than friendship, but it becomes a problem for Rainbow because she dwells on her past and overthinks her fake image and one of Applejack's closest friends gaslights her. Applejack's feelings never went away and she wanted a genuine relationship with Rainbow, but Rainbow was blinded by the darkest thoughts that were never said to anyone. Despite their differences and their own personal issues, will Applejack and Rainbow Dash be able to pursue their feelings? *MLP characters mentioned in this story and book cover art DO NOT belong to me* 𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐆: 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟗𝐭𝐡, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 - ???
