Aeris and Izen were never meant to be simple. Not when their touch burns, their glances linger, and their nights blur between rough truths and quiet tenderness.
Nineteen and reckless, Aeris is all sharp smirks, soft lips, and unspoken aches-daring the world to keep up. Izen, silent and steady, is the one person who always does. They don't talk about what they are. They don't need to. From whispered confessions in the dark to stolen moments that leave them breathless, they just are-raw, real, and utterly tangled.
Together with Hazel and Brielle, their found-family chaos plays out in between homemade cakes, over-watched dramas, and shared silence. But behind the laughter is heat, tension, and the kind of connection that doesn't fade when the lights go out.
This isn't a love story that starts with a kiss.
It starts with want.
And it just doesn't stop.

{𝐀𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐀 & 𝐙𝐀𝐘𝐀𝐍} || 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 || Aisha Farooq spent years fighting for a future that belonged to her. Becoming a doctor wasn't just a dream anymore, it was proof that a woman could be more than someone's daughter, wife, or mother. But one family decision shattered everything. Forced into a Nikkah with her cousin Zayan Rahman, Aisha enters a marriage she never wanted with a man she believes will never understand her ambitions. To the world, Zayan is charming, careless, and impossible to take seriously. But behind his effortless smiles lies years of silent love and the painful truth that no matter how long he waited for Aisha, she never once looked at him the same way. Trapped between family expectations, buried resentment, and feelings neither of them know how to handle, their marriage becomes a battlefield of pride, heartbreak, and slowly unfolding love. Because sometimes destiny doesn't tie souls together gently. Sometimes it knots them so tightly that breaking apart becomes impossibleComplete
the moon will always be better than the sun
enemies. "Did I not warn you about staying away from me today?" he says as he looks at my eyes. Deeply. My brain stops for a second. His hand is closed around my neck, his face is dangerously close to mine. And I'm breathing heavily. He sees whatever's wrong with me, and stays still for a second, a small smirk forming in his lips. Then, his eyes find my lips. What the hell is happening? My heartbeat fastens as I hold my breath. And his eyes find mine, again. He slowly leans in. His mouth traces my jawline and face. It doesn't touch me, but he's too close I feel his breath. I don't even realize that his hand has released my throat, and I could freely go if I wanted to. But I'm feeling way too many things at the same time. Why aren't you running, Jess? I then feel his lips on my jawline for a second; and I find my hands tugging into his hair, as I breathe a bit too heavily. He then lifts up his face, lips next to my ear. "So. Fucking. Easy." he mutters. © All the characters and the story is owned by me! Thank you.Complete
Fragile Lies (discontinued atm)
Izel never meant for one reckless night to follow her into the daylight. But the memory of Adrian Vale, his touch, his voice, the way he made her feel seen, clings to her like a bruise she can't hide. He's off-limits now. Her professor. A line she should never cross again. But desire doesn't care about rules. As the pressure of secrets builds, so does the pull between them, messy, intoxicating, impossible to ignore. And with every lie told to protect what they shouldn't want, the truth only cuts deeper. She was supposed to move on. He was supposed to resist. Neither of them knows how to let go.

And somewhere between secrets, school hallways, and late-night visits, they become each other's addiction. But behind every touch, every lingering look, there's a truth awaits. Some loves don't bloom in the light. Some grow in the dark and bite back.Complete

In which... At the University of Sydney, sparks fly in the lecture halls when Isadora Rodriguez, a sharp-tongued, charismatic overachiever with a wild streak, collides with Simon Seville, the uptight, bespectacled academic perfectionist known for his cold logic and killer grades. What begins as a war of words and one-upmanship-sabotaged presentations, snide remarks, and brainy brawls-quickly spirals into late-night study sessions full of tension, quiet admiration masked as competition, and stolen glances they refuse to admit mean anything. As the year unfolds, the walls come down: Isadora sees past Simon's stoic exterior to the boy who's been pushing himself to exhaustion, desperate for recognition and security. Simon discovers the vulnerability behind Isadora's bold front, the insecurities she hides behind her sarcasm and chaos. There's jealousy. There's denial. There's a moment in the library that almost turns into a kiss. There are rainy nights, blanket forts, drunken confessions, and the quiet realization that they've stopped wanting to win against each other... and started wanting each other. The tension breaks somewhere-with one impulsive, heated kiss that turns into a full emotional unraveling. By the time they admit their feelings, it's messy, beautiful, and absolutely worth every insult hurled.
