Mashal-e-Mehtaab- 3
Zavian Noraiz and Iman Hamid~ The girl who once loved in silence, now standing at the edge of destiny. The boy forged in London's streets, ruthless on the tracks, unstoppable in heart. _ She was sixteen when she first saw him. Zavian Noraiz-untouchable, unreadable, and everything her young heart wasn't supposed to want. He was her father's best friend's son, the one who visited from London every summer, leaving behind nothing but dust and an ache in her chest. Now, eight years later, Iman is no longer the wide-eyed girl with stolen glances. She is a woman with dreams, a future, and a PhD at Imperial College London. But fate has its own plans. His family offers her a place to stay in their home, but she refuses, knowing too well that living under the same roof as him would be stepping into a storm. Because Zavian isn't just the boy she once loved-he is danger wrapped in a leather jacket, an underground racer with a past that whispers secrets in the dead of night. And when their paths collide again in the heart of London, sparks aren't the only thing that ignite. There are unspoken words, buried hurts, and the undeniable pull of a love that was never meant to survive. But love has never been safe. And neither is Zavian Noraiz. Because the man who once left might be the only one who can protect her now. Even if it means destroying himself in the process.Complete

That's it, maybe things would be better between us. But when his smile faded, I knew they wouldn't. Now mind you, he wasn't usually the type to hold grudges. But this was different, I guess.
