Ghalia (Gha-lee-ya): priceless; dear to the heart.
Ever since she was born, Ghalia has always put the needs of others before her own. She would take the food off her plate if it meant that she would satiate someone's hunger.
Fresh out of highschool, 19 year old Ghalia is excited to start her college journey. She yearned for the semi-independence college life offered. Aside from her mom, siblings, and two friends, Ghalia was alone. She always saw her friends go in and out of relationships and always wondered when it would be her turn. Ghalia loses all hope when her father passes away. She pushes any remnants of a love life away and focuses on working hard to help her mom financially. Although, she secretly yearns to be loved.
31 year old Mourad Gouda is a hardworking, successful architect. People think he's mean and cold. And well, he is. But only to those that deserve it. It takes a lot to earn his respect. Once earned, Mourad's respect goes a long way. He is willing to do anything for the ones dear to him.
So when Farid, Mourad's best friend, loses his father and has to take care of his mom and four siblings, Mourad steps in and offers to help in any way he can.
☆
"You have no idea what you do to me." Mourad rumbles huskily. He looks into my eyes.
"What?" I say smiling, oblivious to the war inside his head. He continues to look into my eyes almost as if he's searching them for something.
As he looks at me, I get this feeling inside of me. I feel cared for; it's weird. He crosses the distance between us and holds me. His arms holding me in a way I've never felt before; delicate and gentle like he'll accidentally crush me.
"Let me show you what love feels like, hm? I want to kiss and touch you in places only I can touch. Let me do that." he says, looking into my eyes, pained.

HASRET [book 1- Oberoi brothers saga]
In a world where bonds are tested and hearts carry unspoken burdens, "Hasret - The Longing of Four Brothers" unravels the journey of four souls bound by blood, yet scattered by fate. The eldest, once the pillar of the family, walks away-misunderstood and wounded-leaving behind silence and unanswered questions. The second, barely an adult himself, steps into shoes too large, becoming the anchor, the protector, the silent warrior who keeps the family from falling apart even when he himself is breaking. The third, caught between loyalty and pain, becomes a rebel-not by choice, but by fear. He builds walls around his heart, believing detachment is the only way to survive. He yearns for his elder brother, but masks his longing behind anger and silence, terrified that love, once again, will leave him hollow. And the youngest-just seventeen-is a mirror of their chaos. Too young to understand, too old to ignore, he drowns in the storm of emotions he doesn't know how to name. Torn between the roles, he watches, listens, and waits-for healing, for clarity, for the day they'll all be whole again. At the heart of it all lies a silent Hasret-a deep, aching longing. A longing not just for the return of the elder brother, but for the return of something far greater: the lost warmth of their once-whole family. Though none speak it aloud, the ache binds them, shaping their choices, their silences, their love. This is a tale of brotherhood, of broken hearts and healing hands, of duty, loss, and the quiet hope that one day... home will feel like home again.Complete

You're my solace, my salvation. And I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy. Even if I have to break you first, I'll piece you back together with my own hands. Even if it costs me everything... even if it costs me my life." -------------------- "Run, Akshaya. Run!" I whispered to myself, my breath ragged, legs trembling as I pushed harder. "If you stop now, it's over. You'll never be the same again. They all betrayed you. He betrayed you. He's been playing with you-your feelings, your trust. Don't look back. Just go!" I reached the bus station, my chest heaving. Without thinking, I stumbled into the first bus I saw, collapsing into a seat as it started moving. My head fell against the window, the weight of everything crushing me. Fear and exhaustion pulled me into restless sleep. But it didn't last long. A sudden halt jolted me awake. My eyes fluttered open, heart pounding as I looked around. The bus was empty. A chill crawled down my spine. Something wasn't right. And then I saw him. He stepped onto the bus, his dark eyes locking onto mine immediately. A slow, knowing smirk played on his lips. "Enjoy your little escape, wildcat?" His voice was calm, mocking, as he moved closer. My heart raced, and I pressed myself against the seat. "Stay away from me," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. His smirk deepened, his steps deliberate. "Stay away? After all this effort, you think I'll let you go?" He stopped just inches from me, towering over me. "You don't get it, do you? You can run all you want, but you'll never escape me.

My Sinner ✓
A TOXIC LOVE STORY~ "Why did you marry off me to Sirish, Daddy? Why not Harsh? Or any other man?" I ask my father looking at my wedding chain, my eyes burning with hot tears. He leans forward and cups my cheek, "Aren't you happy with Sirish?" his tone is dripping the guilt while his face is emotionless. A tear rolls down my cheeks. Removing his hands off my face, I wipe it. "It's not about happiness, Daddy. Since I got married to Sirish this question is bugging me. What you saw in him to get me married to him?" I mean it. Why only Sirish out of every other guy? The wrinkles over the corner of his eyes dominate his handsome features when he smiles at me, "I saw myself in Sirish, Princess." We both halt our gaze on my husband, Sirish Ajay Thakur. I pin my intense gaze on Sirish who avoids Dad's admiring eyes, "Are you like my father, Sirish?" He lifts his head surprised at my question and he is tongue-tied. Can Sirish ever be like my father at least in one aspect? I smile at my fate and turn my attention back to Dad, "No one can be like you, Daddy, and Sirish will never be like you," my words were sharp and clear for my dad to understand at least now. Dad pulls me and Sirish in a hug and his face beams with happiness, "Maybe. But he is Sirish Ajay Thakur, my student, that's enough to trust him with my daughter" Dad kisses Sirish's hands and places mine in Sirish's, "He will make you strong, Namrata Sirish Thakur." I and Sirish lock our eyes and more tears spring in my eyes when he doesn't guilty after everything he did. I close my eyes sinking myself in Dad's warmness, "You are wrong! You selected the worst person as my husband, Daddy. A person who calls me maid, a person who doesn't trust me, a person who cheats on me, a person who wants to torture me, Daddy," I cry to myself at my helplessness. ******************************************Complete
