The Pact by curlyheadache

When Jeanette's father leaves his entire business empire to her and presumably passes, she is forced to manage his assets and businesses. Unfortunately, her qualifications are for being a teacher, not a CEO, so she agrees to marry Daniel, her late brother's best friend and childhood crush, because her father's will forces her to marry in order for her to sell Lucas Industries. They strike a deal. He runs the business while she returns to teaching-but he's determined to make her fall for him because, although he became so good at hiding his feelings that she gave up on pursuing him, he's always been obsessed with her. Through carefully placed gestures, unwavering devotion, and a past neither of them has fully faced, Daniel works his way back into Jeanette's heart. But when an accident puts him in danger, she realizes the truth-she never stopped loving him and she doesn't have to run anymore.

When Ziyana Raza's cousin is abandoned by a fiancé who appeared to have loved her very much, it's Ziyana's last straw. A former hopeless romantic-now disillusioned by too many betrayals and heartbreaks-Ziyana abandons all notions of true love and vows to remain single forever. "Forever" meaning as long as her Pakistani Muslim family's patience for her singlehood thins. Besides, she's too busy hating her grueling corporate job as a data analyst, anyway. And as long as she tells herself that true love and the sacred bond of a husband and wife spoken of in the Qur'an is only for a few lucky souls, she'll be fine. But right when she's settling into a somewhat comfortable routine of avoiding men and scoffing at the idea of marriage, Shahzain Shah barrels into her life. Charming, infuriating, and a little too observant, the new BI Manager of her company seems determined to challenge Ziyana's cynicism, missing no opportunity to alert her of how absurd he thinks her "plan" is. On top of that, he's sharp and demanding in the workplace she already hates, making him her thirteenth reason for quitting. But as much as he gets on Ziyana's nerves, he also...somehow knows all the right things to say, the right things to do. Recognizes and appreciates her intellect. Befriends her brother and respects her parents. Makes her laugh even when she's trying desperately to hold it back. She can't help but reminisce that an old version of herself would have thought Shahzain checked all the boxes for a potential spouse. Too bad she's dead set on her mission...right?

EHSAAN by zeyniv

"You took advantage of my naivety!" she whispered slowly. "What advantage? This marriage has caused me nothing but loss! A stupid move I made because of pity." He let the frustration out after holding it in for 3 years, slightly regretting as the girl's mouth slightly wide opened in shock. "I'm very grateful for your favour, Hazem Gilani. Feel free to end this marriage since I no longer need your pity." ------------- A story revolving a young woman who had been married to a man who was 11 years her senior. Not only that, he was also a ruthless politician. She didn't think much of it until 3 years passed and the man showed no kind of emotions towards her, and little to no talk. --- !! slowburn

With plans to end the marriage quietly, they head to a dreamy destination wedding - where Zoya's cousin is marrying Rayaan's best friend. Now, they have to fake being the perfect couple in front of their entire families. There's just one problem: the more they pretend, the harder it gets to remember what's fake... and what's not.

The Path Of Love ✅ by black-diamonds

At first, they refused. Zara Kai and Archer Mays-two strangers bound by their parents' desperation-had both rejected the idea of an arranged marriage. But when Archer's father threatened to strip him of his inheritance and the company he had spent years building, he had no choice but to comply. Zara, too, had been worn down. Her mother's pleading eyes, the unspoken fear in her voice-*"Please, just agree."*-had finally broken her resolve. She said yes to a man who promised her a peaceful life, a chance at love. She didn't know she was signing away her happiness. --- Sneak peak~ The moment the door closed behind them, the mask slipped. Archer's hands were cold as they cupped her face. His kiss was nothing more than a fleeting press of lips-mechanical, devoid of warmth. Zara didn't resist, though every instinct screamed at her to pull away. There was something about him-an intoxicating dominance that left her paralyzed. *"Now, let's finish quickly,"* he murmured against her skin, fingers working at the clips of her dress. *"My friends are waiting."* The words snapped her back to reality. She shoved him away, her palm cracking across his cheek. Archer didn't flinch. He only smirked, his dark eyes glinting with something cruel. Zara's chest heaved, humiliation and fury burning through her. She had known this marriage would be loveless-but she hadn't expected *this*. *"What did you think?"* he taunted, straightening his collar. *"Husband and wife? We're nothing. We can be strangers with benefits-but even that's too generous for you."* Before she could respond, he gripped her arm and shoved her toward the door. *"I'll give you some time,"* he said, voice dripping with mockery. *"Not that you deserve it."* The lock clicked behind her. Zara stood there, trembling, the weight of her mistake crashing down. This wasn't a marriage. It was a prison ~completed
