She called him MysteryGuy.
He called her LittleOne.
Then he disappeared like a shadow.
Now, years later, Lara is a rising diplomat. With long dark brown hair, soft brown eyes, and a face that draws people in, she balances her kind soul with sharp intelligence and quiet confidence. She dresses with elegant style and speaks with calm certainty-no longer the girl who believed in daydreams, but a woman who earned her place.
But when her new security detail walks in, everything stops.
Matt.
Black hair. Hazel eyes that burn behind a mask.
Tall. Strong. Silent. Dangerous.

Now he's sworn to protect her.
But the way he watches her? It's more than duty.
It's obsession. It's memory. It's everything he couldn't say that day.
And this time, he's not walking away.
So , how are they gonna treat their forbidden Love?.

TELL ME WHO I AM! | Dark Romance | Psychological Thriller |
She wakes up in a stranger's bed, a diamond ring glimmering on her finger - a symbol of promises she cannot remember - a vow forged in a past that's been stolen from her. Everyone says she's fortunate. That she's blessed. That a beautiful home, a devoted fiancé, and a spotless future await her. But when her pulse falters under his gentle touch... when her skin shivers instead of warming - something deep within resonates with the alarming feeling that something is profoundly, dangerously wrong. He insists it's for her own safety - that something awful happened, that healing simply takes time - but there's a fire in his eyes, a possessiveness he cannot mask. And somewhere in her mind, a locked box rattles against its chains. And at night, in the quiet... she dreams of another man she does not recognize. Until one day he steps out of the shadows. Not with flowers, but with fire, with danger, with a confession forged in the pure agony of a love forgotten. Not with comfort, but with a storm in his eyes and a voice that trembles when he says- "You promised to remember me," he whispers. "Even if the whole world made you forget." He is not kind. He is not patient. His love is wild - a consuming force - a sin that feels more elemental than redemption. The moment he reaches for her, the carefully woven lie starts to unravel, thread by thread, until the awful, beautiful truth emerges. She doesn't know his name. But her soul does. Now, stranded between two men - the man who offers refuge within a perfect illusion and the man who holds the key to a catastrophic reality - she must make a choice. To stay safely oblivious... or to break free and remember the life that was stolen from her. Because someone made sure she forgot. And they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Some truths are dangerous - and some memories are worth everything.Complete

What started as a spark turned into a pattern: the soft moments, the sharp ones, the slow unraveling she mistook for love. She told herself it wasn't toxic. That he needed her. That she was still free. But obsession has rules. And Matias has already broken every one.Complete

Enthralled
WARNING: This is a work of fiction. Any names, characters, businesses, places, events and incidents are all fictitious and only existing in the author's mind. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead is purely coincidental. Anathalia Lavimoure had it all-fame, fortune, and a face plastered across billboards and movie screens. But behind the glamorous facade was a self-absorbed, sharp-tongued diva who was used to getting her way and never hearing the word no. As one of the most controversial figures in the industry, she'd made enemies in every corner-enemies who didn't just gossip behind her back, but were now actively hunting her down. Forced out of her luxurious life and into a nightmare she never imagined, Anathalia was suddenly on the run, desperate and terrified, with nowhere to hide and no one left to trust. Once a man with a future, Elias had been wrongfully convicted and left to rot in a prison cell for a crime he didn't commit. By the time he got out, the world had forgotten him-and he wanted nothing to do with it anyway. Hardened by betrayal and injustice, Elias had built walls no one could climb and trusted no one but himself. He had no interest in heroes or saving anyone. And yet, when fate threw a panicked, designer-heeled Anathalia into his path, running for her life, he didn't walk away. Maybe it was the fear in her eyes. Maybe it was the way her bravado crumbled in the face of real danger. Or maybe, deep down, Elias just couldn't turn his back on someone who felt what he had once felt-helpless, cornered, and utterly alone. Now bound by necessity and danger, the spoiled starlet and the bitter ex-con must rely on each other to survive. But as bullets fly and secrets unravel, the line between protection and connection begins to blur-and neither of them is ready for what that might mean.Complete

But just as love began to bloom, a decade-old promise shattered her world-forcing her into an engagement with Ryan Raichand, her cold, enigmatic boss and a billionaire in the gemstone industry. Ryan never wanted marriage, especially not with a woman already in love with someone else. Yet, he couldn't escape the weight of his father's word, a promise tying him to Samaira in a fate neither of them chose. Their engagement became a battlefield-filled with icy stares, clashing wills, and a pull neither of them wanted to acknowledge. Resentment simmered, unspoken emotions waged war between them, and yet, something even more dangerous lurked in the shadows. As Ryan's enemies surface, the danger becomes all too real. Ruthless rivals circle, but the real threat isn't from the outside-it's someone much closer, watching, waiting, playing a long game neither of them saw coming. As secrets unravel and betrayals cut deep, Ryan finds himself tested-his strength, his loyalty, and an unexpected protectiveness over the woman he never wanted but can no longer ignore. In a world where love and betrayal collide, Samaira and Ryan must navigate a web of deception before it's too late. But when the final truth is revealed, will their fragile bond survive-or will it shatter along with everything they once believed?Complete
