❝RUIN ME. BURN ME. I'M YOURS.❞

Kadar al-Din Rumi, Caliph of Khorashtar, is a cold-blooded murderer, and is known by the people of his country as such. Every dusk, he marries a new woman; and by dawn, he has slit her throat. It is a vicious cycle of murder and torment of girls and their families.

When the ruthless king sets his sights on the sister of Zeinab Nejem, Zeinab knows that she will never let a monster win. She decides to take her sister's place, to survive longer than any other one of King Kadar's wives, and then, when the time comes, to murder him the way he murdered so many.

Cursed by Destiny by DrishtiPugalia
24 parts Ongoing
What if Kaal, the cold and distant son of Bholanath and Mata Parvati, was destined for something far greater than simply fulfilling his duties? At the age of 22, burdened by the weight of his responsibilities, Kaal lived a life devoid of warmth and affection-until he met Dhara, the lively and fearless warrior who vowed to save her brother, Abhay, from the clutches of the dark sorcerer, Daitya. Their initial encounter was one of mutual distrust and conflicting ideals, but the battles they fought together began to unravel the walls around Kaal's heart. However, the world they live in is unforgiving, and love is often overshadowed by the looming threat of vengeance and dark magic. As Dhara steps into Kaal's life, he is forced to make a choice: remain the ruthless warrior he was always meant to be, or embrace the love that slowly begins to bloom in his heart. But with Daitya's power growing stronger and the past's unresolved bitterness threatening to consume them, the path to happiness seems almost impossible. Now, Kaal must decide: will he follow the path of duty that he has always known, or will he choose a different route-one where love, vulnerability, and the possibility of losing everything come into play? "Cursed with Destiny" is a story of fated encounters, the clash between duty and desire, and the difficult choices that define us.

❖ QUEENKILLER, KINGMAKER Book 1 ❖ Feudal Southeast-Asia filled with magic, daemons, and a royal conspiracy. This is Isla's quest for the truth, and her slow spiral into becoming her very own worst nightmare. When the gods ascended thousands of years ago, they left behind the divine gift of theurgy. Its powers still echo amongst men, but run fiercer yet in the blood of kings and queens. And one of them will stop at nothing before Isla is dead. A betrayal lures her out of refuge and into her journey home, where she must unmask her enemies before they unmask her. The theurgy that she has had to keep hidden for many years can be her greatest ally or her most lethal foil. Only her wits can guide her through the dangerous politics of the Surikh court. But amidst the plots and schemes bubbling around her, she uncovers something far more sinister than the identity of her enemies. Something that can change her entire life; indeed, entire kingdoms. ↝ this work contains violence, profanity, and sexual references ↜ ↝ Winner of Wattys 2016 HQ Love Award ↝ Winner of FANTASCI's first Chosen One ↝ Winner of The Cryptic Awards 2018 ↝ Featured in Fantasy as of 18-01-2017 ↝ Wattpad Editor's Pick January 2021
