FACETS # 1 | First draft
•We are like parallel lines; Always close-never together.•
Days of planning.
A moment of distraction.
A woman violated.
A man framed.
Sometimes it takes a catastrophic turn of events in one's life to head in the direction it was meant for.

Loving the Unloved Soul
She's the girl no one defends. He's the man no one believes. After losing her parents, Nayab is taken in by relatives who treat her like a burden. Silenced, judged, and dismissed, she's learned to survive in shadows-but her spirit remains quietly unbroken. Hadi Hamdani was cast out of his powerful family after a betrayal he didn't commit. Distant, guarded, and self-made, he's sworn never to need anyone again. When a scandal forces them into a marriage neither of them chose, two strangers must navigate a bond built on silence, sacrifice, and everything left unsaid. In a house full of suspicion and a world that never gave them a choice, they begin to find something they've never known before-understanding. A slow-burn Pakistani romance about trauma, healing, and what happens when two unloved souls are bound by fate-and begin to feel something real. GENRE: Romance, Slow burn , Soft burn, Strangers to Lovers, Accidental marriage, Forced Marriage Trope, Psychological Healing, Family Dynamics, Inner Turmoil, and Quiet Intimacy,Complete
Izzat An-Nisa (Pakistani Short Stories)
Is it not love when the two made for one another find solace in each others' eyes? When they don't hurt but rather experience joy together? When they don't burn in the embers of their passion but rather enjoy its warmth? Is it still love if the two are so madly besotted with one another than they couldn't bear to hurt the other? Is it still love if it doesn't hurt? A different kind of love. A normal kind of love. For that which burdens the character of a woman, is not love at all. Following three couples as they not only navigate love, but honor, and pride as well.Complete![𝐌𝐢𝐣𝐚𝐚𝐳 𝐞 𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐪 [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/395563316-256-k867622.jpg)

••|4th in Arranged Series|•• Can be read as a standalone Seeing an annoying smirk over his gorgeous face, her whole body simmers with unscathed fire. "Hear me out carefully now," she murmurs, wanting to grasp his attention from his irritable phone to her. He raises a brow in confusion. "Since we are at it and we can't help but accept this arrangement, let's make some rules which you should put in your dumbass head as soon as possible. We can't go against---" He rolls his eyes. "Cut the slack and come to the point. I don't have a whole day for you." She folds her arms around her chest and scowls at him. "Rule no 1: You aren't going to call me by any lecherous nickname." He shrugs his shoulders. "I ain't dying to do that either. Get out of your high hopes." She glowers at his annoyance but again comes to the point. "Rule no 2: We aren't supposed to wear any kind of adornment which could portray as we are linked to one another." "Zero wish," he spats. "Rule no 3: If any of them would expect us to fulfill any demand, we should know our answer in response. We won't do anything which the other party doesn't want. It's all a drama. Do you understand?" She asks, wanting to confirm it. He nodded. "Understood. I have one ambiguity. Rules won't apply if we both want to break them. Right?" And it takes all her self-control not to land a spicy slap across this idiot smug's cheek. Start Date: 17.12.2024 End Date: 22:10.2025Complete
