    [Complete] I was the Alpha of the Black Void, a man who lived in a world of shadows and silver laced pain. After a brutal betrayal left me broken and blind, I retreated into a cage of my own making, waiting for the darkness to finally swallow me whole. I was a monster in the dark, until I heard her voice. She arrived with the scent of jasmine and a power I didn't believe existed. Nini didn't fear my rage, and she didn't pity my scars. She was a healer from a world I had forgotten, a traveler with a light so bright it began to melt the ice around my heart. She was supposed to be just a guest. A temporary fix for a permanent problem. But as she pulls me back from the edge of madness, my wolf recognizes a truth I'm not ready to face. I've spent years fighting to survive the dark. Now, I have to find the courage to step into her light. Because the only thing more dangerous than the enemies at my gates is the woman currently mending my soul.

    𝔖𝔥𝔢 𝔥𝔞𝔡 𝔬𝔫𝔢 𝔯𝔲𝔩𝔢 𝔤𝔬𝔦𝔫𝔤 𝔦𝔫𝔱𝔬 𝔱𝔥𝔦𝔰 𝔪𝔞𝔯𝔯𝔦𝔞𝔤𝔢. 𝔇𝔬𝔫'𝔱 𝔣𝔞𝔩𝔩 𝔞𝔤𝔞𝔦𝔫. Six years ago, Dhirti Kapoor stood on a doorstep at eighteen and handed Advay Vora her whole heart. He gave it back gently, told her it was just attraction, and left Mumbai to build an empire - leaving her with nothing but unanswered questions and a wound that never quite closed. Now he's back. And his family wants to arrange a marriage between them. Dhirti says yes. Not because she forgives him. Not because she's forgotten. But because she has spent six years becoming extraordinary - brilliant, calculated, the best tech specialist in the country - and she knows exactly what she's going to do with this second chance. She's going to make him fall. Completely. Helplessly. Entirely. And then she's going to walk away. It's a perfect plan. Advay Vora has never wanted anything he couldn't control, never been in a room he didn't own, never looked at a person and felt anything he wasn't prepared for. She's going to change all of that. What Dhirti doesn't account for is the man he's become - quieter than she remembered, more honest than she expected, devastatingly certain in the way he looks at her. She doesn't account for forced proximity, for fairy lights in Udaipur, for the way he says her name like it's the only word he knows. She doesn't account for falling. . . 𝙐𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙗𝙮 𝙮𝙤𝙪 is a slow-burn desi dark romance about revenge that becomes something far more dangerous - love. Set across the chaos of Mumbai and the golden lakes of Udaipur, it is a story about two people who thought they knew exactly what they were doing, and the beautiful, wrecking truth of being completely undone by someone who was always meant to be yours. This book contains mature themes including emotional manipulation, obsessive feelings, and intense romantic ten

    Some people leave because staying would have required more than they had left to give. Some people let them go for the same reason. Three years is enough time to build something - a career, a life, a version of yourself that does not need what it used to need. Roux Calloway has done all three. Jeon Sewon has done none. When a development contract brings her back into his orbit - not by accident, though it will take her the better part of a year to understand the full architecture of the collision - Roux finds herself navigating a world that has never wanted her in it. Not the project. Not the professional table. The world behind his name: the family, the legacy, the machinery of expectation that a man like Sewon carries without always acknowledging how much of it he wears. This is not a love story that forgives easily or arrives without cost. It is built from what two people owe each other when they have already failed once - not absolution, not a clean return to something, but the harder work of deciding whether the thing between them is worth the fight it will take to protect it from the people who have already decided it is not. Roux does not disappear. Sewon does not hide. And the city of Chicago, cold and loud and indifferent, holds the space between them while they figure out what it means to choose each other for the first time - the right way.

    Resident sunshine and hopeless romantic Noor ul ain is the beloved light of her family's eyes, known for her cheerful nature and willingness to please. She wears the weight of expectations like a crown, afraid to disappoint those who cherish her. The only person who can't stand her bubbly personality is her lifelong neighbor Zunair Yusuf. Broody, cynical, and as "I-don't-believe-in-love" as it gets, Zunair sees right through Noor ul ain's happy-go-lucky facade and is convinced her every laugh is a defense mechanism. But when Noor suddenly undergoes a traumatic experience, her laughter fades into silence. And Zunair Yusuf is the only one who was there after it happened. Disturbed by the drastic change in her demeanor, Zunair is determined to find out what happened to Noor ul ain. And as Noor spirals into depression, she finds comfort in reading an old journal from an estranged family member, a woman whose harrowing story Noor feels deeply connected to. As Zunair embarks on his mission, he finds himself growing close to both the faith he had detached from years prior, and the girl he thought he despised. And as Noor connects with someone she's never known, the generational trauma she had contributed to suppressing begins to break the surface, revealing the strength within her to confront the past and forge a path towards resilience and healing. #1 in islam: 4/7/25

Sometimes it feels like waiting for something that may never arrive. Sometimes it's a feeling too deep to be put into words. Sometimes it even begins as hate. Sometimes it's found in someone of the same gender. Sometimes it's the most unexpected thing to happen. And if this book had to name it, it would call it either healing... or ruin. This story carries the weight of love in all its forms. "So, what is love to you?" "I-I don't know whats love to me... but if it's you, then that's love for me."

    Song Yujin used to be dangerous in the studio. Now he is just precise. After two years of silence, the industry calls it "perfectionism." Yujin knows it's a cage. He can hear every flaw in a frequency except the one inside himself. He takes a disposable OST job to prove he can still finish something, expecting a professional ghost. Then Park Kihyun breaks the rhythm. Kihyun needs the work. He's spent too long making other people's songs sound expensive while his own notebook stays hidden. He walks into Studio A prepared to be forgettable-but he sings a line that let the ache bleed through the polish. Yujin hears him anyway. What follows is a slow-burn battle of territoriality and sound. Between the two-sugar coffees, the midnight kimbap, and the dangerous intimacy of being heard before you are ready, they must decide if the music is worth the exposure.

    Omar moved to Thistlebrae for peace, quiet, and meticulously brewed coffee. He did not move there to deal with a walking hurricane of red curls, dimples, and matcha-flavoured optimism setting up shop directly across the street. Em (short for Emeraude, yes really) has one goal: to open her dream matcha café in the cozy Scottish town she's just crash-landed in. She's all pastel menus and plant-based elixirs, until she meets the scowling man behind Grounded, a coffee shop that wears a "F*ck Matcha" sign like a personal vendetta. Their first meeting? Not great. Their second? Worse. Their third? A turf war. But as the café rivalry heats up, so does the tension between the grumpy barista and the matcha fairy across the road. And in Thistlebrae, small towns mean big gossip, and no such thing as keeping your feelings to yourself. P.S. This all began with a tiktok comment. I saw a tiktok about a coffee shop that actually had the "F*ck Matcha" sign behind the counter, and a "Respect the Beans" sign at the door. So my romcom addled brain made me write this comment - "Okay so somebody opens a matcha shop across the road. He hates her with a passion, but he also can't help but notice her passion for matcha. And how her curls perfectly frame her face. And the dimples she gets when she smiles. He keeps going over across the street to pick fights with her and establish bean superiority. Or so he tells himself. Enemies to lovers y'all, somebody write it." That comment got 28.2 thousand likes, and at least 50 people commented something along the lines of "You came up with it, you write it". And so here I am, writing it!
