"Too bad, Princess. I'm not leaving."
-------
For twelve years, Azmira has known only one life-the cold, ruthless streets of London, where survival comes before everything else. Trapped in a gang that raised her, she has been conditioned to steal, fight, and obey without question. But the truth? She was never one of them. Kidnapped as a child and forced into a world of crime, Azmira learned to survive-never to trust, never to love.
When a mission goes wrong, she gets caught. But when the police dig into her past, they uncover the unthinkable. She has no legal identity. No real guardians. And a single DNA test changes everything.
She isn't just a nameless girl.
She is Azmira Ahmed Khan-daughter of the powerful Khan family of Pakistan, who lost her twelve years ago.
Now, forced to return to a family she doesn't remember, Azmira is surrounded by warmth she doesn't know how to accept. Where they are open, she is guarded. Where they love, she pushes away. The Khan family is desperate to reclaim her, but she is still a girl raised in darkness. A girl haunted by a past that refuses to let go.
Her parents assign her a bodyguard for protection.
Zavian Raheel.
Ex-military. Unshakable. And the one man she cannot stand.
He treats her like a mission, not a person. He doesn't care about her walls, her anger, or the scars she refuses to talk about. But the more she fights him, the more he refuses to back down. And when the past she tried to escape comes hunting, Zavian is the only one standing between her and the life that nearly destroyed her.
She never believed in love. Never trusted it.
But maybe love isn't about belief.
Maybe it's about trusting someone to catch you when you fall.
And trust?
That's the one thing she never learned.
