He stood afar from his best friend because that's where his place was..
Irhan has always blamed him for snatching things, Umer knew it was just a joke but somewhere he also knew that it was true.
since they were kids, his parents had always been favourable to Umer even if it cost the negligence of their own son, school, clothes or work Umer had always been a huge part of it but
Today umer made a promise, for once he's gonna let him take it.
That's because Irhan is good at sharing but Umer wasn't, specially when it comes to a girl.
I'm not gonna fight for her, even though I know she's mine.

Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]
They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*

And now, their lives have once again dived into the same ocean they once tried to swim across together- An ocean full of hate, betrayal, ruthlessness. New entries are coming-people who will twist their fate. Old secrets are still buried, hidden faces moving the pieces behind the destruction I'm standing in the middle of.

But just think. Just think for a moment. Just for a fucking moment- What happens... when they love each other again? What happens when the misunderstandings clear, when the pain turns to passion, when the hate turns into something softer, deeper, dangerous? What happens when he claims her again? If hate made him burn the world- What the hell will love make him do?

MY LADY
"I'm weird, and I have a lot of demands." She tried to provoke him, But Avyaan simply replied, "it's ok I'm here, to take care of those demands." Aarohi's attempts to deter him continued. "I don't want any physical relationship after marriage," she said, hoping he'd lose interest. But Avyaan's response was surprising. "A relationship can work without physical intimacy," he said, leaving Aarohi stunned. "I'm a gold digger," she said, but Avyaan just smiled. "That's okay, I can afford diamonds too. You can be a diamond digger if you want" he said, leaving Aarohi frustrated. "I'm not a virgin. I had a boyfriend in my teenage years, and we were in a live-in relationship," Aarohi lied, expecting Avyaan to back off from the marriage. But Avyaan's response was calm and collected. "Your past doesn't matter to me. Just be loyal to me in the future, and that's all that matters." 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞 (The first few chapters might seem boring, but trust me, it'll get interesting later on) ........
