Zara Mahal, a girl adrift from her motherland, a virtual exile amongst strangers, was no dreamer. She saw the ugliness in the world with clear eyes, heard it's screams and cries with open ears. She knew, and yet she dared to imagine a new life...but when is it that the past leaves you behind? When is it that the hungry demons from yesterday bid you adieu with a fare-thee-well? It doesn't happen, not today, not here, and most certainly not with her.
She's being chased, by the demons within and the demons without...and she sees no way through.
Yet...her snarky, rude, more-amicable-dead-than-alive boss seems to know something. Something he won't tell her about. Something that threatens to rock her world and throw her to the ground till her bones break and her head splits.
No, I tell you...Zara Mahal knows the tears behind a happy life. But when her friend gets killed, and she's thrown into a whirlpool of shadowed faces and pulsing darkness, only Alexander Rodwell seems to know how to pull her out.
The problem?
He's the one pushing her in.
P.S. the amazing cover is made by @mebekamil... go ahead and check out the rest of her works!

The Rule Of Elites
She was a girl ensnared by secrets and scars. He was a boy forged from power and frost. When an enigma collides with an Elite, they must either heal or descend into their own hell to survive. --- Seventeen-year-old Elaine Winters has one goal: to endure the torment of her bullies and ignore the new student who seems utterly out of place in their small town and public school. Alexander White is a boy she needs to stay away from-stunningly handsome, immensely rich, and dangerously cold. He is privileged beyond any normal measure. Catching his attention was a chance mistake. His relentless pursuit of her friendship, an anomaly. And when it turns into something deeper, it becomes the ultimate disaster in the making. But when buried secrets emerge from their caskets, Winter finds herself pulled into his world of city lights, power, mind games, and the elite atmosphere of boarding school. Soon, everything she thought she knew about the boy from her town is turned upside down. He becomes everything her heart dreads-and a danger her mind warns her of. She is his obsession, and he is her curse. Every belief is tested, but none of them is bound to win against the rule of Elites. A world where truth is what they make it. ◾ REVIEWS It is one of the best book I've ever read.

Checkmate
The High Class of Europe. Or should I say the vampires? Everybody knows they exist, yet it is an unspoken rule to stay silent about them. You wouldn't want to risk one of them hearing you talk bad about them. The punishment for something as simple as that is unspeakable. The Vampires have built an empire from the dirt of London and have reigned for thousands of years. They continue to drag terror everywhere they step. Now in every high class, there's the low respected, middle of the pack, and the elites. Obviously, none are as interesting as the Elites of society. The cremé of the crop. Allow me to introduce you to Zara Delcour, Kaspian Auclair, Mackenzie Rousseau, and Nox Toussaint, the most powerful young adults of them all. And the great thing is? They're not going anywhere. But people are always looking for the next best thing or the next biggest deal. Alliances are formed. Threats are made. And it's all one big game of chess. + Due to harsh imagery, descriptive visuals, possible triggering moments, and certain mature themes in this novel, it is rated MATURE. There will be trigger warnings at the start of the chapters where mature scenes are held for those of you who would prefer to skip over them! (I cannot guarantee that you won't miss something crucial to the novel in those scenes.)Complete
Bow-Legged
Shall we do an experiment? Hear me out: an enemies-to-lovers where love is complicated but never toxic. Where the female lead knows what she wants and takes it. Where the male lead doesn't growl, rage or slam her into walls. A journey with all the angst, secrets, spice and heartbreak of dark romance without the abuse. Are you ready? ******************************************** It's 1984, Queen on the radio and rage in the streets. Moira Bourne, stretched thin between her nanny job, family drama and university classes, fights for the recognition she deserves. Evander Ward, fresh from a gap year in Europe and eager to prove himself, is ready for redemption. Two people whose paths were never meant to cross. When they do, the collision blows their life to smithereens. ******************************************** "Pass the tea, will you?". It came over me - it being it all, the shame, the anger, the sense of injustice and the nine hours I hadn't slept the night before. Those, maybe, more than anything else, because I reached for said tea and, possessed by that mighty cocktail of resentment, spat in it. I did so making sure he could see it, he could hear it. Then I passed it over to him and waited. His smile, at this point, had turned overjoyed, putting the previous ones to shame, revealing their graft. He had received the answer he was hoping for. He took the cup and chugged it down. Looked me straight in the eye and drunk it all. ******************************************** Fair warning: mentions of racism, ED, assault, sexism, and classism ahead. You know where your limits lie. If you find yourself growing uncomfortable with the content, stop reading. Feel free to reach out in the comment section or via private chat. ******************************************** Updates every Tuesday and Friday.![Strength and Sensuality [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/205277062-256-k462556.jpg)
Strength and Sensuality [Completed]
A modern Pride and Prejudice story. Only sexier. Mira is a refugee, starting a new life far from home. She has to deal with her troubled past, her son, and her enigmatic boss, while her only weapon is her killer sense of humor. It's a slow-building love-hate story, with a strong female lead; two control freak lawyers, fighting for dominance, in denial of their feelings; an alpha discovering his submissive side; lots of humor and humanism. ~73K words ~~~ Warnings: - Mild language. Characters talk like white-collar workers usually do in real life. - Chapter 43 has mild sexual content. It isn't very graphic, it's emotional, rather, but if you don't want to read about it, just skip it.

But then a rare gem like this comes along and without any cheap tricks it pulls in, you just continue and keep reading it and you may not even know when you reach the end." Shadow City AwardsComplete

The Man In The Woods (Virgin Killer #1)
**3RD PLACE WINNER OF THE 2017 CRAYON AWARDS** Third place winner of the 2017 Lilac Awards From the beginning, I knew what I was in for. I knew that this scenario would end one way or another. I wasn't stupid. Nobody put a gun to my head and forced me to play this game of cat-and-mouse. But I will say, I never pictured that this would occur. I stood there, my brother's silver Smith and Wesson in my hands, directing it at my deadly target. My eyes bore into his, his indicating no sign of emotion, while mine were filled with horror. "It's you," I said, my voice unsteady. He took another step closer to me, his hands in the pockets of his trench coat. A malicious grin formed upon his face. His signature expression. "Surprise," he replied before sauntering forward to finish what he started six months ago. ♠♠♠ Six months after Skyler Williamson is abducted and tortured in the woods by a serial killer, she deals with the repercussions of her unfortunate ordeal. Crippling anxiety, the results of unknown misfortunes, bubble up to the surface and rest in the foreground of her mind. And Skyler's prescribed medication can only help to a certain extent. Repressed memories of the past collide with the present, causing Skyler to be unable to distinguish what is real and what is not. When two teenage girls turn up dead, Skyler finds it is up to her to catch the man who's behind all of this... Even if this means trading her own life for the answers she so desperately needs. © The_RebelAngel 2016 STARTED: 01/01/2016 ENDED: 06/21/2017 Cover created by @The_RebelAngel on CanvaComplete
