PRAVARAKHYA...!
They were childhood friends-inseparable, innocent, and full of laughter. But fate, cruel and unpredictable, tore them apart when he was just 12 and she was 6. Years passed, and so did memories. Though he was old enough to remember her, the trauma that followed after their separation buried everything under layers of pain. Now, he is no longer the boy she once knew. Time may have turned him into a successful businessman, commanding respect and admiration from the outside world-but inside, he is cold. Aloof. Broken. The warmth that once lit up his eyes has long been extinguished by the shadows of his past. He has built walls so high, so impenetrable, that no one dares to reach his heart. Not even the friendly touch of a man is welcome; and the mere nearness of a woman sends a wave of anxiety crashing over him. Human connection, once so natural, now feels foreign and dangerous. He hides behind a carefully constructed fortress of emotional detachment-safe, silent, and unreachable. She, on the other hand, grew up to be a cheerful, radiant soul who spreads joy wherever she goes. The apple of her family's eye, she carries their pride with grace and refuses to let anything tarnish their honor. Though playful and lively, she has her principles-unshakable and dignified. They have become two entirely different people... And yet, destiny weaves their paths together once more. Can her light pierce through his darkness? Can her warmth melt the ice around his heart? Will he let her in-into the deepest corners of his soul where fear and pain reside? Or will he push her away, afraid to feel again? Come, embark on this heartfelt journey of two souls-once lost, now searching. A tale of rediscovery, healing, and a bond that might just transform their destinies.

The Stranger I Wed
"You exist for me now. Every inch of you--mine." His hand trailed down, settling possessively on my stomach. "And soon," his voice darkened, "you'll carry my child. One night. That's all I need." A shiver. A breath. His lips grazed my throat, burning. I clenched my fists. I wasn't a wife. Not a partner. I was his obsession. His vessel of desire. And worst of all? I wasn't sure I could tolerate it long enough to bear him a child and guarantee my family's safety. ********** To save her family from sudden financial ruin, Camille Roosevelt gets married into the wealthy Ashford family. In secret meetings before the wedding, she meets her soon-to-be husband, Christian Ashford, whose intense obsession and possessive nature quickly become evident from their first meeting. He demands her submission, subtly treating her as a mere vessel to fulfill his desires, but after their wedding, everything suddenly changes. Christian, once all-consuming, suddenly grows oddly distant and avoids her presence, leaving Camille relieved but still curious about what could have caused such a drastic shift in his behavior overnight and how they are to make an heir under such tense co-existence. The truth, hidden beneath layers of deception, may be more than she could have ever possibly imagined.

What do you want ?" I questioned, staring deeply into his brown orbs, reminiscing how I used to get lost in them so easily. "Oh stop this act Jade, you're smarter than that. You know exactly what I want." He said, stalking closer, his voice smooth as silk, yet has a bit of a rough tone to it , as he placed his hand on on my cheek, and his thumb softly traced my bottom lip, causing a jolt of excitement to travel throughout my body, which I instantly scolded myself for. I shouldn't be affected by him, not anymore. "Well you can't have me!" I slapped his hand away, then pushed him causing him to stumble backwards. I then quickly grabbed my purse, and pulled out my taser. I pointed it towards him as I said "get out! GET OUT!" He seemed surprised for a second but then his face relaxed, as a smirk took place on his lips, he took a few steps towards the door then turned and said "Don't worry Jade, I will have you. Whether you want to or not, I will do whatever it takes to it happen. Mark my words Jade Christina Reaves, you will be mine, and that is a promise."Complete

Is he her safe place to land? Chapter 23 Peek: "Maybe start with no more lying to her?" Miles butted in, his glare sharp enough to cut, the frustration rolling off him in waves. "Easier said than done, and you know that, Miles." I took another long drag off the cigarette, the smoke burning down my throat but doing nothing to loosen the knot in my chest. "Yeah, doesn't mean I don't believe you both should've been more honest," Miles shot back, shrugging like he was trying to play it casual, but his jaw was tight, and his eyes stayed locked on me, daring me to argue. "Trey just loves getting in the way and dividing people," I growled, the words coming out rough. "He singles out the weak and isolates them until he can strike. I'm not saying Maya is weak, because she's fucking not, but this motherfucker has done nothing but manipulate her." "I don't disagree with you, but this is on you, too, Gray." Miles' voice dropped, cold and direct, the frustration finally cracking through. "You fucked up - don't just blame it on the narcissistic psychopath. So does that mean if she asks us to stop keeping watch, are you going to give in?" "Well, I wouldn't really have much of a fucking choice, now would I?" I sighed, rolling my eyes as I finished the beer, the empty bottle suddenly feeling too light in my hand.
