Yuvraj Singh Yadhuvanshi is a strikingly handsome yet ruthless mafia king, a billionaire whose life is steeped in darkness and intimidation. He revels in the thrill of the chase, pursuing his enemies with a sadistic pleasure, torturing them until they beg for death. To him, love is a futile distraction-a weakness that can destroy a person from within. He believes that he can achieve his desires by any means necessary, viewing emotions as impediments to power. But when he lays eyes on Ishita Singhania, a sweet, innocent, and bubbly young woman who embodies everything he despises, his world begins to unravel. In an instant, she becomes his obsession, and he is determined to possess her at any cost. Ishita Singhania is a hopeful romantic, a dreamer who believes in the profound strength of love. To her, love is a beacon that empowers her to face life's challenges, a promise that one day she will find someone to protect her-a shield against the world's cruelties. Yet, her once-innocent perspective is shattered by harsh realities. "Ishita reflects, "The word 'love' sounds enchanting in fiction, but in reality, it is a mere illusion. Only devils inhabit this world, ready to haunt, chase, and shatter you into a million pieces." What tragic event led to her disillusionment? What forces conspired to transform her belief in love into a haunting memory? As fate intertwines their lives, Yuvraj and Ishita are drawn together by a shared past that neither fully understands. When the truth of their intertwined histories is unveiled, will they confront the demons that bind them? Will they embrace the fate that draws them together, or will the shadows of their past tear them apart? In this thrilling tale of love, obsession, and redemption, the boundaries between right and wrong blur. It reveals that even in the darkest hearts, the possibility of love can linger-waiting for the right moment to ignite and either save or consume them both.

Gods Among Us : BOOK 1 {THE FALLEN} by Samuel-Lungu

They thought their banishment was the end. They thought the gods were finished with them. They were wrong. When chaos erupts on Titan, the children of the gods are dragged into a battle-one that will decide the fate of humanity itself. Eric, scarred by a legacy he never asked for. Angelina, Riverose High's golden girl hides a divine secret beneath her perfect smile. A secret written in her blood. Elena, torn between loyalty, betrayal, and the destiny she can't escape. Together with others like them, they must face deadly mazes, ancient monsters, the burning rage of a Gordon's vengeance, and the wrath of gods themselves. But survival comes at a cost-and the gods are not the only ones watching. As the world recovers from the event known only as The Black Apocalypse, one truth cannot be ignored: the war was only the beginning.
