A story of a young woman, struggling with self-image and understandings. Erika is not the usual girl of our modern times- she cannot help falling in the trap of overthinking, although everything seems to be going well. Neither rich, nor poor, she lives her life knowing she is somehow different, and starts sensing a specific ability..
All is fine until one morning, against all warnings and human rights, she is taken as a hostage to a castle in the far east, near the sea. There, Erika and the fourteen other 'candidates' are told their mission- satisfying the ancient royal blood with youthfulness and offsprings- due to the duty of their fates and their ancestors' promises. Being critical, yet emotional, charming, yet sharp-tongued, Erika believes this is a ridiculous mistake and disrespects the supposed glory and purity of her already decided fate. What will the others think of that silly outburst of bravery and will the girls unite to untie the knot of lies, or will Erika meet her punishment for questioning the information given to her? What will she find about herself in this path to her inner demons, and will she be able to overcome her deepest fears?
Follow this breath-stopping story to one's soul and maybe one day we can learn things we had never expected..

BOUND BY FATE- IGNITED BY FIRE
Samaira lived her life bound by her father's expectations, always doing what was right. When he introduced her to Harsh, she never expected to fall for him. But just as love began to bloom, a decade-old promise shattered her world-forcing her into an engagement with Ryan Raichand, her cold, enigmatic boss and a billionaire in the gemstone industry. Ryan never wanted marriage, especially not with a woman already in love with someone else. Yet, he couldn't escape the weight of his father's word, a promise tying him to Samaira in a fate neither of them chose. Their engagement became a battlefield-filled with icy stares, clashing wills, and a pull neither of them wanted to acknowledge. Resentment simmered, unspoken emotions waged war between them, and yet, something even more dangerous lurked in the shadows. As Ryan's enemies surface, the danger becomes all too real. Ruthless rivals circle, but the real threat isn't from the outside-it's someone much closer, watching, waiting, playing a long game neither of them saw coming. As secrets unravel and betrayals cut deep, Ryan finds himself tested-his strength, his loyalty, and an unexpected protectiveness over the woman he never wanted but can no longer ignore. In a world where love and betrayal collide, Samaira and Ryan must navigate a web of deception before it's too late. But when the final truth is revealed, will their fragile bond survive-or will it shatter along with everything they once believed?Complete
