Shell shocked and suffering from achromatopsia, 1st Lieutenant Daniyal El Gohary's world has become a monochromatic and solitary one. After three years of serving in the war, he is finally free to return to his ancestral home in Alexandria.
Lady Sabreen Hassan, an unusual soul for her era, hates nothing more than being a debutante. Aching for freedom and adventure instead of a conventional marital life, she pursues her passion for art, in exchange to getting engaged to a man she doesn't love whom her dominating father had arranged for her.
When Daniyal meets Sabreen, his mother's new successor for her art workshop, he's stunned to not only see colours again through her paintings, but also feel a connection to another human being for the first time in years. Sabreen can't get the charming lieutenant out of her mind either, even if she knows too much to consider a match. If the two want a shot at the kind of happiness they never thought they'd be able to have, they'll have to find a way to navigate their prejudices and their feelings for each other.

Into the Shadows - ACOTAR / ACOMAF - Azriel x OC
#1 in #acourtofmistandfury A book of twisted morals, wrongful loyalties, and hidden agendas. Lexa's only hope of surviving the impending wrath of the King of Hybern, her father, is to finally trust someone other than herself. The timeline takes place around 3-4 months after ACOTAR. Chapters referencing rape, murder, and explicit sex may be triggering. Please read with caution. I do not own the ACOTAR characters mentioned in the book. But I do own the original ones: Lexa, Drak, Bancroft - and the more minor ones mentioned throughout the chapters. I have taken further inspiration from Scarlett St. Clair's A Touch of Darkness and Stephanie Myer's Twilight. More specifically, the raunchier chapters from ATOD and Jane and Alex's powers from the Twilight saga.Complete![𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 |𝟏𝟖+ [Duet: Phase One & Two]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/373203866-256-k987423.jpg)
