MENDED SOULS
Surayya Galadima isn't just a name: it's a statement. The woman everyone watches but never truly knows. A vision of sophistication and perfectionist in every sense of the word. Everything about her is deliberate, not forced, just naturally refined. She owns every room she steps into exuding an effortless confidence that makes her the girl everyone either wants to be or wants to have. And if you claim neither, you're lying, or just jealous. Surayya has mastered the art of keeping the world at arm's length while still keeping them hooked. Just enough glimpses to keep people watching. Never personal, never too much. People call her cold and some call her snobbish. But that's because only a few people get to see past her walls. Those who assume they know her? They only know the version she chooses to show. Tareeq Maiyaki isn't just royalty: he is the silent storm, power in its most dangerous form with his destiny written long before he could even walk. A man of few words, but when he speaks, everyone listens. He doesn't need to demand attention, he simply exists and the world adjust. Maybe it comes with the royal lineage or just raw commanding energy. If there's one thing in his ever so calculated life that refuses to bend to his will, it's Surayya Galadima. The one name he name he never speaks, the one thought he never acknowledges, yet she's always there. The exception. The complication. >>> When life took them by surprise and got them tangled in the most unexpected situation, will their strong-headedness and ego win...or love, the most powerful emotion known to mankind?
Sparks | Mattheo Riddle
"The two couldn't have been more different from each other, yet they can't deny the underlying tension between them, the sparks that fly at every little touch, the red string of fate that pulls at their wrists until they can't brush it off anymore. But the thing about strings? They always rip." ___ Mariella Harlow has suffered under the hands of her stepfather for most of her life, so she spent almost all of it hiding between the pages of books, getting lost in fantasy worlds until she could forget about life at home as a muggle. She had always dreamed of living like in the books growing up, but by now she has accepted that magic doesn't exist and that she would burn in her world of screaming and fighting. At least, that's what she thought. After running away at the age of 16 and stumbling across Hogwarts, a school for witchcraft and wizardry, she is forced to attend the large castle full of secrets and magic. But she has a secret of her own.How long will she be able to hide the fact that she doesn't belong into this world from everyone she gets close to? ___ Mattheo Riddle is a man that is either feared or loved by everyone,there is no in between. As the son of the dark lord, that is what comes with the name. He thrives off of the fear he awakens in People, but underneath that is his own fear of the one he calls father. Living up to Voldemort's expectations wasn't easy, especially as a little boy. His life was a constant. Horrible tasks by his dad,attending Hogwarts, trying his best to survive while keeping up the brick walls around him. However the Universe throws him a curve ball when a new girl joins their year. She's naive, always lost in thought, and worst of all she doesn't fear him. Usually, she's the type of person he hated, yet he couldn't stop from feeling himself get pulled in by her as she makes the walls he so carefully built around himself crumble with a simple smile of hers. In the end she was exactly what he needed the least. A distraction
Invisible Me ✔️
Mariya...... In the depths of obscurity, a story unfolds. A tale of a girl who exists in the shadows, unseen and unheard. Her name is Mariya, a whisper in the wind, a faint echo in the silence. As I weave this narrative, I invite you to step into Mariya's world, a realm of perpetual twilight, where the lines between visibility and invisibility blur. At home, she's a ghostly presence, hovering on the periphery of her family's lives. Her parents, lost in their own worlds, barely acknowledge her existence. Her siblings, wrapped in their own cocoons, ignore her with practiced ease. In the halls of learning, Mariya haunts the shadows, unseen and unnoticed. Teachers glance over her, classmates brush past her, and friends... well, she has none. She's the quiet one, the invisible one, the one who disappears into the crowd. But what if I told you that Mariya's invisibility is more than just a feeling? What if I revealed that she's discovered a secret, a power that lets her fade into the shadows, to become one with the darkness? And what if I hinted that Mariya's not just invisible, but also waiting... waiting for the day when she'll be seen, heard, and understood? Waiting for the day when she'll emerge from the shadows and shine? That day is coming. And when it does, everything will change. Join me on this journey into the world of Mariya, where the invisible becomes visible, and the shadows come alive. Highest ranks : #9 Islamic love story #4 Hausa novels #9 arewaComplete

If Only You knew
This isn't just a story. It's survival, written out loud. Aurora Kingsley thought moving away would silence her past, but trauma doesn't care about distance. The memories followed her loud, vivid, and unrelenting. Each chapter peels back another layer of what she tried to bury: the truth, the flashbacks, and the weight of pretending she's okay. If Only You Knew is a raw journey through trauma, therapy, and the slow, trembling art of healing. Proof that survival doesn't always look like strength. Sometimes, it just looks like trying again. ❤️🩹♥️Complete
