Behind her pudah, Fareedah carried a beauty like no other - golden-skinned, delicate, and marked by destiny as a fortunate albino. She never imagined her fate would bind her to the royal palace. But when tragedy leaves Sultan Khalid - tall, handsome, and grieving - a widower with two young children, his family insists it is time for him to remarry. Duty forces his hand, and Fareedah becomes his bride.
Yet life in the palace is no fairy tale. With whispers about her difference, the cold shadow of his late wife, and two children unwilling to let her in, Fareedah must summon a strength she never knew she had. Slowly, her patience softens hearts, and what began as an unwanted arrangement begins to stir feelings neither of them expected. But in a world where tradition, grief, and envy collide, can love truly bloom between the Sultan and the bride he never chose?

Ashes of a Silent Bride
Du'a was born from a love hidden in shadows-a secret marriage between Alhaji Ahmad Sanusi and Firdausi, an Igala beauty whose life was cut short in a tragic accident when Du'a was barely two years old. With no other choice, Alhaji Ahmad brought his daughter into the grand household of his first wife, Ramatu, and his formidable mother, Hajiya Turai, whom everyone called Kaka. But instead of a home, Du'a found herself trapped in a cage of cruelty. Ramatu and Kaka despised her very existence, and her half-sister Bilkisu, jealous of Du'a's striking beauty, bullied her at every turn. Her father, torn between duty and weakness, could not shield her from their wrath. At fourteen, Du'a's fate took an even darker turn when Kaka reconnected with her childhood friend-Hajiya Aisha, the revered Queen Mother of the Kano Emirate. The Queen Mother, doting on her twin grandsons Ashraf and Arnaf, sought a wife for Arnaf, the troubled younger twin burdened with insomnia and mental affliction. Kaka, seizing the chance to rid herself of the girl she considered a burden, offered Du'a without hesitation. Thrust into marriage far too young, Du'a found herself in the palace, bewildered and childlike, struggling to understand a husband who was distant, cold, and broken. In her innocence, she often mistook his twin, the warm and playful Ashraf, for the man she had been forced to marry. Caught between palace intrigue, her husband's silent torment, and the dangerous stirrings of forbidden affection, Du'a must navigate a path where every step could either break her spirit-or awaken her destiny.Complete

She wasn't gamophobic or philophobic, but the thought of sharing her space, time, and life with someone intimately made her nauseous. But life never goes the way we desire-especially not when we're stubborn enough to resist what it demands.

Aadhya: The Beginning
"He is the only man who has the right to look at her while she is the only woman he'll allow himself to look at." *** In the heart of two ancient kingdoms, bound by tradition and divinity, lived two souls destined to cross paths. Aadhya Shigh Ranawat Princess of Kashi-the sacred land of Lord Shiva. Grace flowed in her every gesture, as though the river Ganga herself had blessed her existence. A devotee of the Mahadev she worshipped daily, Aadhya carried in her eyes the calm strength of the Himalayas and in her voice the softness of a morning prayer. Strong-willed yet gentle, well-mannered yet unafraid of truth, she was a rare blend of fire and serenity. Her faith was her armor, her compassion her crown. Shashwat Pratap Kashyap Prince of Jaipur-the desert jewel of Rajasthan. Tall, broad-shouldered, with a face that seemed carved by destiny itself, he carried the dangerous beauty of a warrior but the innocence of a boy untouched by worldly vices. A shadow of the past lingered in his heart, shaping him into a man who knew little of intimacy, for life had taught him restraint before it taught him love. Raised with discipline, shielded by tradition, he believed that to touch a woman was ungentlemanly and improper of his upbringing. And so, despite his charm, his soul remained unawakened, waiting-perhaps-for someone who could unravel it. He was Shashwat-everlasting, enduring, like time itself. She was Aadhya-the first, the beginning, like creation itself. Two names, two meanings. Two destinies, soon to intertwine. ***Complete
