A flower is to be always beautiful lest it is cast away.

A flower is to be innocent and pure. 

Delicate in nature, ever to bring squinting smiles to those around. 

A flower is perfect. Always perfect. 

She was the perfect embodiment of a flower.

Her name, Iris.


A thorn is sharp like a knight's blade. 

It inflicts pain and draws blood if one dares to get close.

A thorn protects a flower from the wickedness of the world.

A thorn is attached to the king, ever guarding.

He was the perfect embodiment of a thorn. 

His name, Luca.



She was an iris in no need of a thorn and he was a thorn in no need of a delicate iris.
Thrust together by an arranged marriage, the unlikely pair, the thorn, and the flower must now find a way to co-inhabit in the same garden. 

Bracing the strength of the winter, will their love and companionship last for the spring season or will the cold betrayal of a parasitic orchid, the overflowing herbicide of lies and the perfect perfection of the Iris trample the delicate budding bloom of their affairs of the heart?All Rights Reserved

The Royal Deal by RoshniSharma476

It was supposed to be a marriage. A contract marriage. A simple deal beneficial to two families. But she hated it, she hated objectifying herself for the greed of her father. She hated the feeling of losing from a bunch of strangers who didn't consider her say in her own life. So, she turned the tables. What she didn't know was, he only agreed to a deal thinking she had a say. He didn't want a marriage yet agreed to one for the benefit and name of his family. He wasn't a man to mess with but she took her chance and he let her. And it might be her biggest mistake. Taking her chances with him. He got obsessed with everything about her. Her fragrance. Her voice. Her very presence. She came into his life with all the intentions to leave. Now the question is, would he really let her go? Would she want to stay?

𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐝 (𝘢.) /mɑːskt/ (of one's true character or feelings) concealed. . 𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐊 𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓 the king. He's the ruler whose brow is laid in thorn, smeared with oil like David's boy. Malik is put well together and never lets his mask fall. Emotions aren't his specialty, and the ones he has, he conceals behind a content mask, that only his inner circle gets to witness. He wears his pride like his crown and holds his head high. Malik is machine-made, and doesn't let his emotions control his better judgment. All of which evaporates when he lays eyes on his fiancé. But what happens when the world he's so familiar with comes crashing down right before his eyes and he's bound to marry a stranger, having to make up for his absent father's mess, again? 𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐈 𝐐𝐀𝐃𝐈𝐑 is the princess of a small island in the middle of the north African sea. Her father has always been her entire world, and watching her old man kicking the bucket soon, has taken a toll on Amani. Not having her mother's support, due to her passing, she faces the kingdom she is to rule sooner than later, with a mask on her face, as she conceals her true feelings; despair. Amani has always been a sucker for the rules, finding a sense of comfort behind the lines she knows better than to cross. Said lines would be falling in love with any man. But her comfort escapes her body, along with her breath when she learns about her engagement to the man who's an outsider in her world. A foreigner. A businessman from the states, who possesses a British accent. Son of the Libyan foreign minister. With her hands tied to a stranger's she finds herself alone in a world she knows all too well. Both of them are strangers, but will they surprise each other? .

HER ITALIAN BABY... by EvaGEva

Arranged to marry a rich guy she has never heard of, because she never watched all the gossip channels or TV in general. Cara Winters comes home after a hard day of working at the cafe, only to have her father tell her that she was getting married in just two weeks to a guy she didn't know existed up until that moment. And she has no way of opting out, because she would then have to pay a large sum of money that she cannot come up with even if she had more than one lifetime. Zander Morreti could not believe his ears when his father looked at him impassively, as he told him that he was going to get married in just two weeks. He had never in his life imagined that he would get married at such a young age let alone an arranged marriage to a waitress. IT'S THE 21ST CENTURY!! Who does that? Apparently his father and he had no option if he ever wanted to inherit the company. ............ ...he could not believe she had caught him just when he had succumbed to the advances of his secretary!! He got to their room only to find only most of her things missing. As he collapsed on the bed, something caught his eye. On the dresser was a white paper. He quickly picked it up and what he saw almost gave him a heart attack. In his hand was an ultrasound with his wife's name on it. ............ ...he could not believe she had caught him just when he had succumbed to the advances of his secretary!!
