Layla had spent years learning how to stay away from Arham.
So when she's told she has to marry him, saying no isn't an option.
He's the same as always, unpredictable, unreadable, and far too aware of her. But something has changed. The distance between them is thinner now, the silence heavier, and every glance feels like it means more than it should.
There's a past neither of them talks about.
A truth neither of them admits.
And a question Layla can't ignore anymore:
was he always this hard to hate... or did she just never understand him?

Before I Knew It Was You .
"It's been just a week since I joined this university and I already think Pharmacology is the worst subject." Mirha said it casually while sitting across the annoyingly handsome stranger in the lab. Not knowing Pharmacology was his major subject. The subject he taught. A smirk appeared on his face just as another student walked into the lab. "Good morning, Arsalan sir." Her eyes widened instantly. He slowly stood up from the table, his gaze locking with hers before saying, "So, Miss Mirha... what were you saying? That it's none of my business when I asked where you completed your bachelor's from?" Then after a small pause- "Well, now you know why it was my business." Realization hit her like a slap. Because the man she had been arguing with this entire time looked far too young, far too casual, and far too attractive to be a professor. And she had already messed everything up.

Forgetting The Ex
I wince when my bangles dig into my skin,forcing a smile,hoping my boredom didn't show in my movements. I inwardly roll my eyes when my father makes introductions. What lame crap. They obviously know each other. Why make intros? I hiss when my sister steps on my foot,making me looking up. I glance at a middle aged couple, freezing when I made eye contact with an all too familiar grinning face, my vision landing next to her,hoping it was just a bad dream,my heart stopping and finally turning into an icicle when I stared into eyes of the most unexpected person,the person looking back at me,but not quite acknowledging me.Complete
