In the land of gold and shadows, where silence speaks louder than love-
She returns.
Noor Al Qamar, the moonchild-once innocent, now bold. A girl forged in absence, raised on broken lullabies and soft hands that tried to protect her from a truth too cruel to name.
Ten years older. Ten years colder.
Balaaj Al Khaled, her cousin, her storm. A man born to command-his gaze like fire, his silence louder than a scream. Riyadh bows to his name... but one woman haunts his control.
She dreams of fashion, power, freedom.
He dreams of her.
But neither dares speak what burns in the dark.
Inside the palatial walls of Khaled Mansion-where chandeliers hide secrets and gardens remember sins-the past is waiting. And it's wearing a familiar face.
Old memories return like ghosts. Childhood mischief. Hidden letters. Blood on hands. A mother's scream. A message in the night.
In this kingdom of luxury and lies...
Will love survive, or will fire consume the moon once more?

Muraad~e~Siya
~ A story as a Poetry itself ~ MURAAD SIDDIQUI "He never touched the flame. He simply waited for it to burn its way to him." Born into power, raised in shadows, Muraad Siddiqui was promised a bride before he could even tie his shoelaces - a girl he'd never met, but whose name sounded like poetry: Siya. While the world handed him legacy, influence, and control, he built a life around the only thing he never chose but always wanted. By the time she stepped into his haveli, still a child in uniform, he had already crafted a world where she was the centre. But love like his is not tender. It's sharp. Unvoiced. Unholy. Because how do you love someone who sees you as a stranger, when you've lived every breath for them? He stays close-but silent. Present-but untouchable. Not because he can't confess. But because what he feels could undo her entire world. SIYA RAGHUVANSHI "She was signed away with a pen. And now she lives in a palace she never asked for, but still always dreamed of-with a man whose eyes know too much." All Siya wanted was to study literature, hide behind her books, and lose herself in fictional darkness. But instead, she was unknowingly married off at fifteen - not out of love, but a centuries-old debt of honour. Now, she lives in Siya Mahel, a haunting haveli, filled with whispers, strange rituals, and one devastatingly silent man who keeps rubbing her feet every night as she falls asleep. She doesn't know what binds them. She doesn't understand why he flinches every time she asks him questions. Or why his gaze is both a prayer and a punishment. All she knows is that her life isn't hers anymore... And the one man who seems to care, is the one she fears the most. ~ One haveli. Two families tied by silence. Seven sacred stages of love. And a birth from shadows. Love is a blessing. But what if it's also a sentence you can't escape. This isn't a story. It's a rebellion sealed in sindoor and blood. ~~
His Return (what if...)
The morning Sun fell in gold across the glass buildings, but even that light bent around him. Like it couldn't touch him. Like he had his own Sun inside him, and everything else just felt dim beside it. Security flanked him like shadows. People surged. One woman sobbed and screamed his name like it hurt. Someone behind me said something like "He's beautiful," and I wanted to scream 'you have no idea'. But I said nothing. I didn't move. I didn't breathe. ~~~~~ Aaro Vaughn, a star wrapped in fame. Alicia Shalom, the grounded genius designing futures. When Aaro locks eyes with her in the crowd, time stops. She doesn't scream.. she is still.. terrifyingly still. His mind was a mess right now. He didn't know why he kept gravitating toward her.. like some half-buried memory had him on a leash. What happens when she reveals herself to him? When she falls into his glittery world, and becomes the storm no one expected? A story, a dream that feels like a memory, even if it isn't yours. This is just the beginning. The storm hasn't even stretched its wings yet.Complete
unwanted attachment
Two souls. Alike in ways that only make them clash harder. Same arrogance. Same stubbornness. Same burning egos that refuse to bend. And yet... bound together in a relationship neither of them truly chose. She is a mystery-quiet, guarded, carrying a past she refuses to let anyone see. Every smile is measured, every emotion locked away behind walls built from pain. He is power-cold, controlled, a man the world admires as a successful businessman. But beneath the surface lies something far darker... something even he doesn't fully understand. When fate forces them into a marriage of convenience, it isn't love that blooms. It's war. Words sharper than blades. Silences heavier than confessions. A constant push and pull between hatred and something neither of them is ready to name. But the past they share... refuses to stay buried. Memories haunt them. Truths threaten them. And destiny-cruel and relentless-keeps dragging them back to each other. Will they heal together... or destroy each other piece by piece? Because sometimes, the person you're running from... is the one you're already tied to. And sometimes, love doesn't save you. It consumes you. He wasn't meant to love her. She wasn't meant to trust him. But fate had other plans-and it never plays fair. ❃.✮:▹ ◃:✮.❃ " With you beside me, even the hell feels heaven to me!" NAKSHISH AGNIHOTRI. Her wallman and her peace! " I am ready to get destroyed a thousand Times if that path leads me to you!" AKRITI MEHRA. His crackhead and his jaan! ❃.✮:▹ ◃:✮.❃
