Afeeyah was never supposed to be his wife, She was his sister. The little girl who used to steal his hoodies, hide behind his legs, and fall asleep on his shoulder during long car rides.

And suddenly, the girl who once called him brother... became the woman tied to him by marriage. But love doesn't follow logic. And hearts don't obey timelines. Now Afeeyah must learn to live with a man she still sees through the lens of childhood... While Afdal fights to unbury a love he buried long ago. This isn't a fairy tale.

HEALING BONDS
"You know," she began, "I appreciate your help. It's nice to have made a friend who can give us a ride to the city. I don't usually have well-off friends." Dr. Femi, his eyes briefly meeting hers, decided it was time to reveal his true feelings. He wore a small, mischievous smile as he responded, "Well, Pendo, what makes you think I want to be friends with you? I didn't offer you a ride because I want to be just friends." Pendo's heart skipped a beat as she looked at him, a mixture of surprise and curiosity in her eyes. "Oh?" she replied, her voice tinged with both excitement and caution. "And what do you want, Dr. Femi?" Dr. Femi turned his gaze back to the road ahead, his expression serious yet sincere. "I want to be your man Pendo," he admitted, his voice soft and filled with longing. "I want to make you mine."Lengkap
The Alchemy of Love
The story of Love, or what has been mistaken for it, in its multifaceted and multi-dimensional radiance. Discovering love can be hard, being in love can be harder but keeping and staying in love is surely the hardest. ABOUT THE SERIES I once wrote my first book "The Alchemy of Love" as a single story with three main characters but a few people have complained of its several intricacies, complexities, and mixups so I have decided to rewrite it as a series while my final work will still come out as the compilation of the three series in a new format of the original story. This story took me several years to complete and I have tried to rewrite it in a way that will appeal to most readers. I have had to remove the mention of some names, times, and dates to reduce the complexities in it and I used a little bit of pidgin English and Yoruba Language to express myself where it is needed. I advise that you kindly take your time to go through the story with me as I have taken my time to get each main character out of the juicy story in a format you will appreciate and read without stress. I sincerely apologize for the errors detected in the first edition, it has helped the book get better. Thank you for your continuous love, please continue to read and recommend my stories.Lengkap
Crossed worlds
Crossed Worlds is a tale of forbidden longing and unexpected connection between two unlikely souls. Suraiyah, a poised and privileged 37-year-old Muslim woman from Northern Nigeria, has always lived within the strict borders of tradition and duty. Femi, a fiercely independent 28-year-old farmer from Osun State, has carved out a life of quiet ambition and grounded resilience on the outskirts of Abuja. When their worlds collide-hers polished and constricted, his earthy and free-a spark ignites that neither of them can ignore. But love between them isn't just complicated by age, background, and religion-it's a threat to everything they were raised to believe in. As they navigate gossip, judgment, and the weight of their pasts, Crossed Worlds asks: Can love survive where cultures clash and expectations suffocate? Or is desire between them just a beautiful rebellion doomed to burn out?
STUBBORN lINEAGE.
Completed Hamma... I don't feel like eating." "Noor, eat that food now!" I said, my voice firm and commanding, cutting through the silence. She looked down at her plate, her eyes filled with reluctance. "Hamma, please... I'm not hungry. And... the food is too much for me to finish." "Noor, don't argue with me. I'm not your mate," I replied sharply. "You better eat that food, or I will force it down your throat. Trust me, I can do it." My words hung heavily in the air, a clear and unmistakable threat..... This is a story about two young people who were married without their consent, a union carried out with their parents' approval. ...So technically, it was an arranged marriage from their parents' perspective, but a forced marriage from theirs. He was far too arrogant for her liking, and she was far too stubborn and clumsy for his. Could this journey ever truly work...? We all have those cousins who can hardly be called family-more like cats and dogs. Sharing the same roof is nearly impossible, even when the rain pours endlessly. ⚠🚫⚠ WARNING: READ AT YOUR OWN PACE!!! This is a fictional story; all characters and events are imaginary, and any resemblance to real life is purely coincidental. It also explores forced marriage, is highlighting both its advantages and disadvantages-something parents should carefully consider before practicing it. Yours faithfully, The WriterLengkap
