BOOK TWO OF SIKANDAR SERIES!
He rules a world built on silence, loyalty, and blood.
Illegal empires answer to his name, fear clears his path, and violence is simply how order is maintained. He chose this life long before anyone asked him to be human-
and he has lived without regret ever since.
Until her.
She is the one thing his world never accounted for.
The one weakness he did not prepare for.
Promised to his younger brother.
What begins as control slowly unravels into longing. Every restraint costs him something. Every distance hurts more than it should. He doesn't know when wanting her became a quiet, constant ache- only that her absence feels louder than gunfire.
Does he still love her, knowing she will never be his?
Did she ever love him back, or was he alone in his downfall?
And what kind of man chooses darkness before love ever gives him a reason to stay in the light?
In a world where loyalty is lethal and secrets are safer than truth, love does not arrive to save anyone-
it arrives to test what they are willing to destroy.
This is a dark romance of forbidden desire, restrained emotion, and a love that survives where it should never exist.

Sunshine Met Stability
🌻 Sunshine Met Stability ☁️ A story where chaos meets calm, eyes speak more than lips, and love brews in stolen glances and unsaid words. She came with a storm in her heart and sunshine in her laugh. Navya Sandhu wasn't just another transfer student-she was the kind of girl who walked into rooms and made the air shift. A little loud, a little messy, a little too curious for her own good. And definitely not someone who believed in hiding behind silence. But fate has a wicked sense of humor. Because the first person she stumbles into-literally, with her bag half-hanging, eyes wide and confused-is Karan dhir, her mysterious, silent, way-too-good-looking-for-this-world next-door neighbor... who also just happens to study at the same college. And acts like she doesn't exist. He doesn't speak unless absolutely necessary. He doesn't look unless you're in his way. He doesn't care-at least, that's what he wants her to believe. But Navya can feel his eyes. Every time she laughs. Every time she walks by. Every time someone else talks to her. And behind that stone-cold face and jawline carved by Shiva himself, is a storm he's spent years hiding. She thinks he's arrogant. He thinks she's too much. But what happens when "too much" is exactly what "too little" needs? What begins as a curious fascination soon turns into something deeper, darker, and sweeter than either of them saw coming. Because sometimes, the loudest girls need the quietest boys to feel safe. And sometimes, the most silent boys scream for help without ever saying a word. And what if love doesn't come with a warning sign-just a pair of cold eyes that start warming only for you? Get ready for late-night stares, sharp tongue battles, stolen moments, and a boy who doesn't speak much-but will say everything without saying a single word.

IFK: the innocent soul
✨Book second of AHZAB series My amber green eyes are buried in his dark brown ones. He cages me between his body and the marble counter, our faces only inches apart, yet his breath scorches my skin. "Why are you doing all of this?" I grit my teeth, trying to sound stronger than I feel. He chuckles, low and cold. "Because you are mine." "You can't own me! You are no one to me except a stranger!" I scream, pushing him away but he doesn't move. Not even an inch. His fingers tighten around my shoulders, sending a shiver down my spine. "Today," he whispers, voice like ice, "I'll show you exactly what I am to you." He grabs the corner of my dupatta, wraps it around my wrist, and holds my trembling, covered hand in his large one, dragging me toward the mansion's entrance. ___________________________________________ "Qubool hai." With that single word, my life seals itself with my enemy. The man I hate the most. Because if I hate someone, I drown in sin and now, that very someone has become my husband. My mehram. My test. "Welcome to my hell," his deep voice echoes, marking the beginning of my nightmare. This mind-blowing book cover made by Anjali aesthetic

His Childhood Bride
She was only six when her fate was sealed with his name. Thirteen years later, when Dua returns from abroad, everyone expects a westernized, rebellious girl. Instead, they find a soft, cultured young woman whose beauty and grace leave whispers of envy trailing in her wake. She is no longer the timid child everyone remembers, but a breathtaking young woman draped in grace and quiet strength. The entire haveli whispers about her beauty. Some admire. Some envy. But only one man burns with an obsession he can't control-her husband by nikkah, Taimoor Arsalan Shah. Cold. Powerful. Feared by many. Taimoor never wanted a wife chosen for him. Never wanted the childhood nikkah that tied him to her. Years later, he has built a life of authority, discipline, and unyielding pride. But when Dua walks back into his haveli, draped in innocence and quiet strength, he is struck with a possessiveness he never thought himself capable of. Her lowered lashes and trembling lips make him realize that the girl he once ignored is now the only woman capable of undoing him. She wants freedom. He wants her surrender. And in a world bound by family honor, secrets, and desire- love was never supposed to feel this dangerous.The girl he once rejected is now the woman he cannot let go of-even if it means breaking her heart to claim it. "You were mine before you even knew what marriage meant, Dua. And now... you'll know exactly what it means to belong to me."
