• His Noor: His Purest addiction
Noor ul Ain - lovingly called Aina - and Zain grew up with giggles echoing through sunlit courtyards and secret wishes whispered under the stars. Childhood best friends turned secret keepers, they became each other's quiet strength long before they even knew what love truly meant.
When they were barely teenagers, their families sealed a promise - an engagement that tied their innocent hearts for the future. But fate, ever so unpredictable, carried Zain far away to Finland for his studies, leaving Aina with nothing but memories and unspoken prayers.
Years drifted by like pages of an unopened letter. Distance tested what time had woven. And when life knocked Aina down with her father-in-law's failing health, she clung to the only rope she knew - her faith. In the sacred stillness of Madina, with tears wetting her palms and her whispered dua echoing through the courtyard, she begged her Rabb for his father's healing... her father-in-law who is as Equal to her father, and maybe, deep down, for a sign of him - her Zain.
And prayers, when pure, always find their way. Under the soft hush of Madina's peace, she looked up - and there he was. Zain. His purest. Standing like an answered prayer, his eyes carrying every promise he'd ever made.
Shocked, breathless, Aina did what her heart commanded - she ran to him, her tears a testament to waiting done right, her hug a silent confession that distance can't dull what faith keeps alive.
In that moment, Madina witnessed a reunion crafted not by coincidence - but by dua.

First book 🏒.
Starting college was supposed to be Violet Vale's escape plan.
New country. New city. New campus.
And then there's Ethan Maddox-tattoos inked like warnings, that infuriating smirk, and a six-foot-five presence that fills every room like he owns it.
Her brother's best friend.
Her worst enemy.
And now? Her accidental shadow at Northbridge University.
Violet's spent years trading insults and eye-rolls with Ethan, ever since he became an honorary part of her family. But there's nothing brotherly about the way he looks at her now-or the way her pulse reacts when he calls her Vi like it's some kind of challenge.
He's cocky. Infuriating. One year older.
And the only person on campus who makes her feel anything at all.
They're not friends. Definitely not something more.
But the line between hate and something far messier is starting to blur.
And when hearts get tangled...
Someone's going to fall.
