Caught in a whirlwind of emotions and traditions, Ayan, a reserved and devout young man, whose life takes an unexpected turn when he meets Ziyad, a rebellious and domineering feudal lord who leaves an indelible mark on both their lives. Ayan's struggle with his own identity deepens as Ziyad-confident, flawed, and magnetic-challenges his beliefs and boundaries, igniting a forbidden connection.
Set against the backdrop of societal expectations, familial pressure, and the haunting shadows of past traumas, their journey is one of love, pain, and self-discovery. With every choice, they are pushed to confront their deepest fears: Ayan, to embrace the truth of who he is, and Ziyad, to rise above his arrogance and confront his demons.
In a tale woven with passion, heartbreak, and the timeless rhythm of qawwali, this story explores the delicate balance between love and power, faith and self-acceptance, and the courage it takes to redefine one's destiny.

Once in a Lifetime {BxB English}
IMPORTANT: Once in a Lifetime: Part 1 is now officially published on Amazon! Please read the "READ THIS FIRST" chapter for more information and future updates. They say some loves only happen once. For Ody and Mano, that once changes everything. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen. And losing someone again isn't a risk he's willing to take. Ody is the opposite. Bright, extroverted, charming, and painfully sincere, he notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. For someone like Mano, that kind of softness is dangerous. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. What starts as tension becomes something neither of them can name, and soon, something they can't stop. But between secrets, buried trauma, and a world that won't let them exist without consequences, wanting each other comes at a cost. One keeps pushing him away. The other keeps reaching past every warning sign. Together, they burn. But when everything catches fire, love may not be enough to save them.Complete
