"YOU FOOLISH GIRL, NOT EVEN YOUR STORIES CAN SAVE YOUR BEAUTIFUL THROAT."
Khai killed 1000 girls before he got to her. And he would make sure she would die like the others. His beautiful hands demand blood on them.
Mazeeda would make sure that she'll be the last girl Khai would ever kill. Her beautiful neck will not be touched by a blood-coated blade. She will take her friends place.
If Mazeeda cannot save her own life with trained hands, she will do it with her quick mind and sly mouth. During the night, she weaves stories never told before to Khai; in the morning, she roams the palace to escape. With each tale she tells, the more she realizes these aren't just stories; but something much greater.
Something that Khai is keeping from her, things he does not want to be let out.
Somewhere a 1000 miles across the sand kept land, three brothers are plotting something that'll end the reign of the monster and save their sister.

The Grove
Adler ascended his father's throne after the old bastard was deposed. He inherited a divided kingdom that has been committing genocide against its own people for generations. Adler feels inadequate to rule. The weight of it is unbearably heavy, he doesn't have the talent for it, and Adler feels like he's suffocating every minute of every day. When the entire kingdom shows up to the party in honor of the king's birthday, he's so overwhelmed that he tries to hide. Instead of refuge, he catches a thief in the act of stealing papers from him and his advisors. The thief is unapologetic, audacious, and most confusingly, flirtatious. She makes an odd promise to return to him shortly, then takes off into the night. The very next day, she appears in his rooms. He's baffled. "Want to help me stop a coup?", she asks with a playful smile. Adler falls for Ren almost immediately. He doesn't even try to deny it. Ren makes it very clear that she has no time for his feelings, but she might make an exception for his body. Her people are dying, and she's in the fight to end the genocide. Everything else comes second to the cause. She leads the king to a world that is and isn't part of their own. Revolution is rising up in The Grove.
ISHQ-E-NAQSH
"In a world where dominance ruled the halls and secrets whispered through elite corridors, four girls walked in unknowingly-each carrying dreams, scars, and silent wars of their own. But fate doesn't knock politely; it crashes in. And when Amira Reyhan, a girl of faith, books, and impossible simplicity, crossed paths with Raif Zayyan-the cold-blooded prince of the shadows-everything changed. Welcome to a story where hearts wage wars, pride crumbles, and love... isn't always gentle." They say fate doesn't ask before changing your life. At Alnoor University, fate doesn't just knock-it crashes, breaks, and rebuilds. Amira Reyhan, a girl who walks in with quiet strength and eyes full of hidden storms. Raif zayyan, the king no one dares to question-until she does. Their first meeting? A incident. Their second? A mistake . After that... nothing is the same. Secrets. Power. Unspoken bonds. Wild emotions. An obsession that feels wrong... yet makes everything feel right. Friendships will be tested. Hearts will be bruised. Dreams will collide. And love? It'll either destroy them-or define them. This isn't a story about perfection. It's about two souls who weren't supposed to meet-but did. And once they did... nothing could stop what was coming. --- "Ishq-e-Naqsh" isn't a fairytale. It's a war. A test. A heartbeat that never fades. Are you ready to feel every beat of it?
unwanted attachment
Two souls. Alike in ways that only make them clash harder. Same arrogance. Same stubbornness. Same burning egos that refuse to bend. And yet... bound together in a relationship neither of them truly chose. She is a mystery-quiet, guarded, carrying a past she refuses to let anyone see. Every smile is measured, every emotion locked away behind walls built from pain. He is power-cold, controlled, a man the world admires as a successful businessman. But beneath the surface lies something far darker... something even he doesn't fully understand. When fate forces them into a marriage of convenience, it isn't love that blooms. It's war. Words sharper than blades. Silences heavier than confessions. A constant push and pull between hatred and something neither of them is ready to name. But the past they share... refuses to stay buried. Memories haunt them. Truths threaten them. And destiny-cruel and relentless-keeps dragging them back to each other. Will they heal together... or destroy each other piece by piece? Because sometimes, the person you're running from... is the one you're already tied to. And sometimes, love doesn't save you. It consumes you. He wasn't meant to love her. She wasn't meant to trust him. But fate had other plans-and it never plays fair. ❃.✮:▹ ◃:✮.❃ " With you beside me, even the hell feels heaven to me!" NAKSHISH AGNIHOTRI. Her wallman and her peace! " I am ready to get destroyed a thousand Times if that path leads me to you!" AKRITI MEHRA. His crackhead and his jaan! ❃.✮:▹ ◃:✮.❃
In the Name of Love and Loyalty
"I'm so sorry," she said, but there was no fear in her voice. "I wasn't looking where I was going." I clenched my jaw. "You should have been." To my surprise, she didn't back down. "Well, maybe you should watch where you're going, too. It's not like I did this on purpose." I stopped, stunned. "Do you have any idea who you're speaking to?" Her eyes didn't flinch. "Yes, I do. And I don't care. I'm not going to stand here while you blame me." I was taken aback. Most people would've cowered, but she didn't. "Next time, be more careful," I said, colder now. "I will," she replied, "And maybe don't judge so quickly." ***** Zahra is a kind, fierce, and hardworking woman who is deeply dedicated to her religion. As a hijabi, she maintains a strong sense of faith and self-respect, and her unwavering determination to do right by her values makes her both compassionate and savage when necessary. Rashid Khan, on the other hand, is a notorious mafia boss feared across all of Asia. Cold, calculating, and intimidating, he's used to being in control, and his ruthless demeanor keeps everyone around him in check. When they are arranged to marry, their worlds collide. Zahra's fiery independence and strong beliefs challenge Rashid's dominance and cold control. Neither is willing to back down, creating a tension-filled dynamic. Will Zahra's strength break through Rashid's hardened exterior, or will their clash of wills tear them apart? Anyone can read it!
