He came into her life carrying a secret. She walked into his carrying a heart he swore he would never touch. Ateş Karahan knows exactly what he wants. Revenge. He has spent years building walls around himself, convinced that emotions are weaknesses and trust is something he can no longer afford. Then there is Mercan. She isn't supposed to matter. She isn't supposed to get close. And she certainly isn't supposed to make him question everything he's believed for years. Mercan doesn't understand Ateş. One moment, he's cold enough to push her away. The next, there's something in his eyes that makes her believe there is a completely different man hiding underneath all that anger. But Ateş has secrets. Mercan has questions. And the past has a way of finding people who desperately want to escape it. As their lives become increasingly tangled, the line between revenge and love begins to disappear. Because sometimes the person you're supposed to stay away from becomes the one person you can't imagine losing. And sometimes fate doesn't give you a choice. It leaves you... Arafta. Canon-based Ateş × Mercan fanfiction inspired by the original series, with new scenes, dialogue, emotions, and moments woven between the events of the show.
