[🏆 18 Awards Winner] 

"When obsession learns the language of love, every 'I love you' is a chain"

Riya laughs the loudest and bleeds the quietest. Scarred by an emotionally distant childhood, she hides behind wit and sarcasm-but her eyes always give her away. College is supposed to be a fresh start, a chance to breathe.

But then enters Raghuveer-silent, intense, and fiercely focused. The class achiever who never lets anyone in. But something about Riya stirs the parts of him he's kept buried. He swore he'd never fall again... but some promises break too easily.

On the other hand there's Rohan-the golden boy, the sweetest guy and Raghuveer's rival. Untouchable but sweet, he never fell for a girl  until he notices Riya, for the first time. But what does he really want-her love, or something far more dangerous?

As obsession blurs into affection, peace shatters. With betrayals, buried pasts, and someone determined to erase her,Riya is no longer just a bystander. In a city that sees everything and a war no one speaks of, survival comes down to one thing: how far she'll go when love turns lethal.

"I didn't want to love you. I wanted to own you-tear you apart and put you back together, so you'd never breathe without remembering who you belonged to"

I gasped when he turned us, pressing us against the hard wall and wrapped my leg around his waist. His body began grinding against mine, our tongues clashing in a fierce battle for dominance and submission. He won, of course. When it came to Aaron, my body always surrendered. Like always his touch obliterated my soul, and this time I felt it. Upon the harsh sweeping of his tongue, gliding along the roof of my mouth, I erupted. I burst into a million flames, letting passion ignite me into pure ruin. *** Kiara is returning to New York, after three long years of hiding from her past, with something far more precious than her broken heart. Now she must face all her demons and those who she left behind. Aaron Black, leader of a criminal gang, never knew he had a heart to be broken. But when the love of his life chose a different future to one with him, the dark heart no-one knew he possessed, shattered. However, now he was a ruthless power hungry gangster, and every bit the monster that his reputation preceded him to be. Can these two lovers manage to navigate themselves back to each other and find happiness in the dangerous mafia world, where constant blood is shed?

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.
