Never in his life for the twenty years he had been on this earth, would he have expected this devious fate to cross his path.
Arranged marriage? Forced inheritance?
It angered him up to the point to complete bitterness.

The Marriage Bed
Passion. Price. Possession There are only two things Gina Gray loves more than her six inch heels and her penthouse suite: Sex and her family. When her father proposes an arranged marriage to save their family business, Gina is shocked - even more so when she discovers who her future husband is. Knox Warner, her ex-boyfriend who broke her heart years ago. Gina despises every fibre of his being and is determined to lead her life the way she wants regardless of their marriage, but Knox says otherwise. With his arrogance and the tendency to always get what he wants, there's only one thing he craves and that's Gina. The chemistry is potent and no matter how hard Gina tries to convince herself that she will not succumb to her lust, she's constantly stuck between a rock and a hard place. Literally. But how hard will Knox have to work to make her his and the marriage bed theirs? ©2018Kumpleto

Crimson Vows (Book 1 of Crimson Empire)(Completed)
"We never asked for this. Our lives were written by others, our hearts shackled to a contract neither of us wanted. But somewhere between the lies we told ourselves, we found something we never expected to feel-something dangerous, the truth ." Love was a luxury I never sought, never allowed myself to want. I built walls so high, pushing people away to keep them safe, only letting a few in for fleeting moments of pleasure. But when her parents demand an arranged marriage to unite our families, my father has no choice but to agree. Defy them, and we risk everything. I knew her already-knew the way the sun made her skin glow, the way her curly brown hair danced with every step she took. But did I like her? That was a whole different question. Our families' hatred ran deep, centuries of bloodshed and betrayal fueling the fire that had burned between us for as long as I could remember. The only reason I even tolerated her was because of her brother-my best friend. The one person I thought I could trust... until I learned I was never supposed to be his ally at all. Now, fate has forced us into a marriage neither of us wanted. It feels like a foreign limb, an unwanted tumor growing at my side, suffocating every ounce of freedom I had. The question is-can we both survive this? Or will one of us end up broken, shattered by the weight of what we never asked for? But somewhere along the way, the impossible happened: I fell for her. Completely. Undoubtedly. And now, I don't know if we'll make it out alive... or if we'll destroy each other in the process.Kumpleto

I said, lowering my head so that I won't have to look into his eyes. "Clara Vincent?" he asked in a serious tone, his piercing gaze boring hole in my forehead. "Avery. Clara Avery!" I said, my voice thickened with guilt and embarassment. .......... Just when Clara Avery thought she was able to left her past behind, destiny brings her back to the place from where she started. Six years after she broke Aaron Vincent's heart, she is forced to work with him but after what she did to him, would she ever be able to look into his eyes? #1 in Young Adult (4/9/2019) #14 in Romance (20/1/2019)Kumpleto

Then this is the book for you! Join me in the wonderful story of two souls, Kanan and Viraj, who saw each other for the first time on the day of their marriage. How did they get adjusted to each other's presence and what happened in this arranged marriage of theirs? __________________________________ ׂׂૢ་༘࿐ For the first time in my life, I was sleeping with some woman in my room and that was my dear wife, Kanan. __________________________________ ׂׂૢ་༘࿐ She had slept on my shoulder and would be feeling uneasy. I gently put her face back on the sofa and switched off the TV. Life has changed pretty fast, I thought as I glanced at the girl sleeping cozily on my sofa set. There was once a time, I would vibe through the Saturday nights here and now there was another cute fragile human in my life, who wanted everything shared between us. __________________________________ ׂׂૢ་༘࿐ Cookies and tea were just an excuse, the actual hunger was satisfied as I saw her brush the blush on her cheeks, the beautiful winged eye liner, the way she curled her lashes, the wink after putting the kajal, and the shiny pink lip gloss. She picked up the perfume and sprayed it on her neck, that soft white neck, Oh my God! __________________________________ ׂׂૢ་༘࿐ "You.... You wanted.... To...", She was stammering. "I wanted to ask...", I was nervous seeing her. Those red lips of hers..... "If I could eat those lips?" I spoke and then stopped. What the fuck? Her eyes widened at the comment and I covered my mouth. "Sorry sorry, I was saying chips?" I was awkward. She blinked. "Which chips?" __________________________________ ׂׂૢ་༘࿐ Thanks for dropping by!💞Kumpleto
