Two cultures.
Two worlds.
One dangerous obsession.
Damian Moretti was born into power.
The heir to Milan's most feared mafia empire, he was raised in a world where loyalty is absolute and silence is survival.
Hayat Khan belongs to a completely different world- one built on honor, discipline, and saving lives.
Their paths were never meant to cross.
But the moment Damian meets the woman who refuses to fear him, something shifts.
What begins as curiosity soon becomes something far more dangerous.
An obsession.
And Damian Moretti is not a man used to being denied.
As enemies close in and two cultures collide, Hayat finds herself pulled deeper into a world of power, secrets, and violence.
A world where Damian intends to keep her close... no matter the cost.
Because in a world ruled by silence, love can be the most dangerous weakness of all.

THE KNIGHT WHO STOLE ME
"He gave her a choice. But it was never freedom-it was punishment." Seventeen-year-old Sarah was quiet, careful, and kind-hearted-until she entered his world. Andrew Knight. Twenty-one. Cold, powerful, and haunted. He never touched her. But he watched. Always. She ran. He let her. But his silence wasn't mercy-it was madness. In a mansion of shadows and secrets, they orbit each other like cursed stars-too close to breathe, too far to heal. She tells herself she feels nothing. But why does it hurt when he's not there? Why does she flinch when he stops chasing? And why does he watch her cry... ...from behind the monitor? This isn't love. This is control, carved into longing. And someone is about to break. "He said she could leave. But his eyes... never let her go." ---

Forcefully Yours
She was a stranger in a pastel jora. Now she's his wife on paper. Aariz Ashraf didn't fall in love with Izzah Dua. He saw her once - at a wedding he didn't even want to attend - in a village full of noise, tradition, and unnecessary colors. She laughed too loudly. She joked with everyone. She handed out chai like it was love itself. He looked away. But his father didn't. A rishta was sent. And before he could say no, he was bound to her in nikah - quietly, formally, forcefully. Now, they're legally married. Living separate lives. Bound by silence, shattered expectations, and a bond neither of them truly understands. Izzah didn't want to be just a name on his papers. He didn't want another heart to disappoint. But love doesn't need permission. Sometimes, it finds you in the tension. In the tea cups. In the way she won't stop making dua for him - even when he won't meet her eyes.Complete

Ananya: The Curse That Became Her Blessing (18+)
It is the journey of a woman-unthinkable, almost unbelievable. At first glance, she seems like a forest river: wild, untamed, flowing with a quiet, mysterious force that refuses to be contained. You may expect her to flood, to break barriers, to lose herself in her own vastness. But she does not. For within her, there exists a rhythm-an unseen boundary she chooses, not one imposed upon her. She bends, but never breaks. She flows, yet never forgets her course. Every turn she takes carries both grace and resolve, every silence holds a storm waiting to be understood. This is not just a journey through places or time. It is a passage through strength, restraint, desire, and destiny. A journey where the impossible becomes real-not through chaos, but through quiet, unwavering control. This story written by me and grammar and sentences checked with the help of AI
