If you had one chance to borrow warmth from someone you barely know, would you take it?
Kshira knows what happens when you trust the wrong person-she's spent years building walls.
Xander Wells? He's only ever seen affection as leverage.
But one desperate night ties their fates in ways neither expected, leaving both to wonder:
How long can you hold someone at arm's length before they break through?
And what might you risk for the chance to feel something real again?
Enemies that aren't quite enemies.
Two hearts fighting not to need anyone.
City lights, sharp edges, and a story where warmth is the hardest thing to keep.

Behind the shimmering empire of Rai Couture, the world's most exclusive fashion house, hides a darker truth - one stitched in blood, secrets, and revenge. Ekalavya Raivansh, 29, rules both the runway and the underworld. Cold, controlled, and untouchable, he's a man whose name commands silence. To the world, he's elegance personified - to those who cross him, he's destruction wrapped in velvet. Then comes Anaya Verdan, 20 - a quiet, sensitive medical student with a heart too tender for the chaos that surrounds her. Orphaned young, she grew up in an NGO run by Ekalavya's mother before being adopted into the Raivansh family. To everyone, she's his sister. To him, she's the one mistake he can't afford to make. And to fate... she's the girl whose life is bound to his darkest sin. When a twisted web of jealousy forces them into marriage, Ekalavya vows it's for revenge - to punish her for trespassing into a world she never belonged to. But every day she spends beneath his roof - cooking for him, avoiding his gaze, trying to understand his silence - the walls around his heart begin to crack. Until the day she discovers the truth. The truth that her parents' death was tied to him. And love turns into war. In a world of power, lies, and whispered desire can two broken souls stitched together by fate survive the truth that could destroy them both? Tropes Slow burn / forbidden love Adopted sister x cold heir Found family turned lovers Grumpy x sunshine Unrequited love (turned mutual) Mafia with a heart / morally grey hero Hidden scars, secret soft spots He protects her from the dark he lives in "I hate how much I need you" energy

Hold Me As I Am

20 parts Complete Mature

Love isn't always kind. Sometimes, it's brutal. Raw. Unforgiving. And real. Ava Monroe thought she knew what love looked like - until Julian Reed moved into the apartment across from hers. A jazz musician with quiet eyes and a voice that felt like smoke, Julian isn't like anyone she's ever known. He doesn't chase her. He doesn't try to fix her. He just sees her - and that's what makes him dangerous. What starts as a coincidence quickly turns into oxygen. But loving someone like Julian means confronting every fear, every flaw, and every part of herself she's tried to bury. This isn't a love story with perfect endings. It's a story about choosing someone again and again - even when it hurts. Especially when it hurts.
