She's an expat, careful, humble... trying to survive in a world that isn't hers.
He's rich, confident, and knows exactly how to push her buttons.

He teases. She fights back.
She rolls her eyes. He refuses to be ignored.

Her life is quiet, predictable, modest.
His is loud, extravagant, and impossibly magnetic.

A situation which pushed them into a fake marriage was supposed to be simple.
Two strangers. Two signatures. Two worlds colliding. One roof. Right? 

Well fuck not really

Because keeping up the charade means 
-dodging suspicious relatives, 
-fielding endless questions about their "relationship," 
-and pretending everything is perfectly normal while their own families inch closer to discovering the truth.

What was supposed to be simple is suddenly a tangle of secrets, small lies, and the constant, unspoken tension between them.

A marriage on paper, lies in practice, and hearts dangerously close to unraveling.All Rights Reserved

Blood on Silver Shadow on Thorns (#1 ) by MidnightMuse999

BOOK 1 : From the outside, Ahmed Khan was the perfect son-educated, refined, quiet, and deeply respectful of his elders. At 30, he returned to Pakistan after years in the UK, settling back into a peaceful life in Islamabad. But what no one knew was that under the surface of quiet prayer and humble smiles, Ahmed was the head of an underground mafia empire-one that ran in shadows, blood, and disloyalty. His father knew. His mother pretended not to. But the rest of the world, including Mahaam, had no clue. Mahaam was 19, a quiet storm in her own right. Intelligent, dignified, and deeply rooted in her faith, she had dreams of becoming an Artist. Her father, fearing the loneliness eating at her since her mother's death, accepted a proposal from the Khan family. It was a traditional arrangement-two families sealing their bond with marriage. She wasn't in love. Neither was Ahmed. But both respected their families, so they agreed. Until one night. That night changed everything. She started falling for him. Not for the mafia boss. Not for the monster. But for the man behind it-the one who quietly protected her, never touched her without permission, always made sure her favorite chai was stocked. He tried to keep her away from his world. He went to war. And Mahaam? She didn't run. Because by then, she'd stopped fearing him. And started standing beside him.

Transcendence (A Muslim-Christian Story) by BintUmmi

"So you approached me without being aware of my identity?" He asks me, while raising an eyebrow. To say I was shocked would be an understatement. It takes me a while to compose myself and form a sensible reply. "Yes, I wasn't aware of your identity." "You might think you can fool me, but trust me, this has happened quite a few times before as well." He says with a very serious expression. I'm baffled by his accusation. This man has the audacity to question my intentions when he's the one trying to converse with me all along. I don't know what comes over me, but whenever I'm overwhelmed with anger, it turns into tears. And before I can compose myself, I taste the salty tears in my mouth. I take a few deep breaths, place the cup on the side table and get up to leave. "Thank you for your hospitality and your excellent assessment of my character. I will now take your leave." With that, I turn to head towards the door but he grabs my hand and pulls me towards him. Characters: Ameerah is a happy-go-lucky 23 year old who has recently graduated from med school. She is an optimist with quite a rosy view of the world. She is far from perfect. She has her faults; some she's aware of and others, not so much. She's stronger than most in some ways, weaker than many in others. Sebastian McArdle is a Consultant in General Surgery at the Royal London Hospital. He's one of the youngest and most accomplished surgeon in town. To an outsider, his life would seem perfect. He's young, handsome, successful, rich and hails from one of the most respected families in the country. But life is not always what it seems to be. He has his own set of problems. As Our Holy Qur'an states Surah An-Nisa, Verse 28: Allah desires that He should make light your burdens, and man is created weak. Follow a story of trials and errors, to finding her path to love, and to Life.

Amira Ahmed doesn't remember the last time she felt happy. The last time she felt love. She doesn't remember when was the last time she was ever free from her responsibilities. All she ever did was work, work, work. That's it. When she got married she didn't expect much from the marriage as well. She couldn't feel happiness in anything she did. She was a lost little girl searching for happiness. When her husband left her the very next day of marriage, she didn't complain and waited for him. Not because she loved him but because he had a life in his hands which she loved dearly. Waqar Ahmed was a man full of confidence, anger, violence and emotionless. He wasn't a man people mess with. He married not because he fallen in love, he married because he had a debt to clear. He liked his space and hated to be disturbed. He always sets his goals clear and make sure to achieve them. He was just a man who is lost. He hates people who are always sad and agitated to do something, including his wife. He hates her for her coldness. He knew what she was and what she had become.

Wife for a Year by poohbear98

"My name is Rashiq Salim bin Fiqri Zafar, Crown Prince of Arandia and I need your help." "I'm sorry, did you say prince?" "Yes, and you, Ms. Walker are going to be my bride." She spluttered her coffee over him again. "What?!" Simply a business proposal... The last thing Annabelle Walker expected was a handsome, rich billionaire sheikh prince walking into her life and proposing marriage to her for a span of a year. Or even the fact that she would agree to his proposal. The next thing she knows, her life is never the same. Juggling between college and keeping their marriage a secret, there are more burdens and secrecy than before. Pressure builds during the day but is relinquished in passion-filled nights in her husband's bed... Or could it be more? Rashiq Zafar, Crown Prince of Arandia needs a wife and he needs it quick. When he sees Annabelle Walker, she fit his requirements perfectly. She needs money and he had money. All he needs her is for a year and they would walk away unaffected. But the last thing he expected was new emotions to follow his decision to get married... _____________________________________________________________ Okay, I've been getting a lot of offensive comments on his religion and race and bla bla bla. I just want to let you know that where I come from, I do know the basic customs and I think some of you are being too offensive for a fictional story. This story has absolutely no relations to religion. At all. All I did was select a certain nationality for my main lead. Plus, its a fictional country! I have done my research and I do not appreciate people saying my characters are going to hell and stuff. So, I've changed the name a bit and removed the "bin". Once again, I'll say this, this story has some sexual content so if you are sensitive to it either due to morality or religious reasons, please do not read any further. Thank you. PS: The rest of you, do enjoy!

She sat looking at the big mirror blushing and thinking about her groom, she didn't even know his name. She eagerly waited for him to come and take her with him to his home, to their home. She was thinking what he would say, what his voice sounded like, what he would call her and how would she react to his actions. The things which she had never imagined in her life about marriage, home, romance, relationship etc., she was thinking about it all today. She hears the door open and she closes her eyes, her head bowed down, cheeks blushed while her chest heaved up and down due to heavy breathing. She hears a voice talking to her from a bit far. She had her back to him. "Hi, Thanks a lot. If you hadn't come, then I would have been on the streets. You really did a good job. The director was impressed with your improvisation though the role was small." She was confused, what is her groom speaking about. She opens her eyes and turns around to see him. Her face falls, it was not her husband. He hands an envelope to her and thanks her before he leaves. She takes the envelope still confused. She thinks - Oh! This must be a wedding gift from his friend. But what was he speaking about, I couldn't understand anything ... Marriage was not on her list but when it happened, it happened in a strange way. Read the book to understand how is this a strange marriage and how would this ever work. *Fictional story Was listed at #1 under SidNaaz on 21st Jan, 2021.. happiest day!!
