"Some shadows don't just protect you... they consume you."

Noor Pathan had always been her father's pride - veiled, dignified, and untouchable.
But her world tilts the moment her life is threatened, and protection comes in the form of one man she was never meant to notice.

Ibrahim Pasha - silent, disciplined, her father's most trusted guard.
Raised as family yet never truly belonging, he had one duty: protect the daughter of Nawaz Pathan at all costs.

But when duty turns into something far more dangerous - stolen glances, unspoken prayers, late-night shadows - Noor realizes his silence is louder than any vow, and his presence more consuming than any danger outside.

A halal slow-burn where:
✨ Bodyguard x Protected
✨ Forced proximity
✨ Veil & devotion
✨ Loyalty, faith, and forbidden emotions

Will Noor survive living in his shadows...
or will she finally step into them?All Rights Reserved

Written In My Qadr by maryam_writesss

Yasmeen never imagined her father would marry her off to Khaleel-a man she barely knows, a stranger with sharp eyes and a softer side he hides from the world. Their marriage starts with silence, cold stares, and unanswered texts... but fate keeps pulling them closer. Between stolen glances, unspoken words, and late-night drives, Yasmeen slowly learns that falling for her husband might be the sweetest kind of danger. But she isn't alone in this story. Her best friend Intisar carries scars of her own, and Ya Amar-the quiet observer-might just be the one to heal them. ✨ Secrets. Silent wars. Slow-burn tension. When duty collides with desire, will love be enough to save them all?

Where Love Settles by thanksforthetrauma

Hasna and Aarhan have been married for four years. It wasn't love at first sight-it wasn't even love at all. An arranged marriage turned into a comfortable routine, with their two-year-old daughter Afrah filling their home with laughter. Aarhan Baig is everything Hasna expected him to be: calm, reserved, a man of few words but steady actions. He's a CEO in the world outside, but at home, he's just "Baba"-the man who gives bear hugs that swallow their daughter whole. Possessive, protective, quietly affectionate... he is hers in ways he never says out loud. Hasna, graceful and quiet to the world, hides a playful heart only Afrah ever sees. To everyone else, she is composed. To her husband, she is his niqabi wife-beautiful, the epitome of grace, and his alone. They are comfortable. They are content. But beneath that comfort lies the question they've both avoided-what does it mean to truly love each other? This is not a story of falling in love at first sight. It's the story of falling in love slowly... after the "happily ever after."

"𝗗𝗶𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗼 𝗱𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿, 𝘁𝘂𝘁 𝗷𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗴𝗮....." ~ 𝗡𝘆𝗮𝗸𝘀𝗵 "𝗞𝗼𝘀𝗵𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗸𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗸𝗵 𝗹𝗶𝗷𝗶𝘆𝗲... 𝗵𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝘂𝗸𝗱𝗲 𝗽𝗲 𝗯𝗵𝗶 𝘀𝗶𝗿𝗳 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗶 𝗻𝗮𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗵𝗶 𝗵𝗼𝗴𝗶......" ~ 𝗡𝗼𝗼𝗿 Noor Farooqi is a medical student who has just completed her graduation and is now working as a doctor in her own hospital. She is the sunshine-brave and fearless, afraid of no one but Allah. For her, Allah is watching every step she takes. She loves her family deeply. Nayksh Dhyani, as his name suggests, is someone balanced between power and peace, action, and contemplation. Yes, that's exactly who he is. He always wanted to be a Confectioner, but his father didn't approve. So, he ended up becoming one anyway. He doesn't care about his father's opinion. He doesn't really like his family, except for his mother and sister-they are the only people for whom he would die or take a life. "Marne ke liye humari hi scooty mili hain aapko?" she said angrily, continuing to speak as he silently admired her-not staring, but appreciating. "Kya dekh rahe hain?" she asked in anger. "Nihaar raha hoon, kaisa lagta hain kisi mein kho jana," he whispered softly. He was the first to fall, but one night changed everything-his love turned into deep hate. "Aap mere bhaiya ka kuch nahi bigaad sakte, Allah miya hain unke sath," she said firmly while he tied her hands with ropes He looked into her eyes. "Trust me, Noor, I can ruin his whole existence. Ab tak bas chahat dekhi hain tumne, meri ab nafrat ki baari hain," he said, grabbing her neck-not twisting it, but enough to make her feel his hate was as real as his silent love once was. What's the story? Why this revenge? Is this something new, or just another rivalry tale?

His Sacred Obsession by ZafinZone

But Azaan Ulric Khayr, billionaire, founder, and a man of impossible restraint. He never speaks to her, only files a nikah proposal with her father, vowing: "I didn't come to win her heart. I came to ask if I'm allowed to try." While Aamira is just trying to survive midterms, Azaan has already decided she's his qadr. And when faith, fear, and feeling collide, how do you protect a heart written in nikah from the man who has been praying for you long before he ever knew your name?

The Silent Vows by lovely_sd_ar

Silent Vows: A Dark Romance Yasmin and Ibrahim are bound by an arranged marriage, but not for love-only for power. Raised in the dangerous world of the mafia, Yasmin is independent and strong, while Ibrahim, raised to control and dominate, sees the marriage as a strategic move to strengthen his family's position. Despite their cold start, the tension between them grows. Ibrahim's need for control clashes with Yasmin's resistance, creating a power struggle neither expected. As they navigate their complicated marriage, the line between duty and desire becomes blurred, and what started as a business deal begins to feel more like something's deeper. ________________ Note: Although this is a dark romance but I assure it is not that DARK.. If I to word it, it's Mild Dark Romance since this is my first time writing something like this so it's not suoer dark unlike others. This story, test the patience, possesiveness and action of the two. Abused As well as how they heal one another. Note: This is a work of fiction with mature themes. Any resemblance to real events or people is purely coincidental.
