at her making her skins creep at the way his eyes look at her from top to bottom. She feels Waali hands tighten around her hand making her wince at the pain that occurs making her pull her hand off his grip.
Waali looks at them looking at each other completely forgetting that he is standing right there making him angry. He didn't expect anything but less that she pushes his hand away obviously she is trying to seduce his Gulzar.
"You two are actually married?". Gulzar asked taking a step
Almaas steps back hiding a little behind Waali shoulder not wanting to speak to this man. Waali feels her moving closer to him and he can swear that this woman sure knows how to act but he has better things to do.
"Jee (yes), I have to go to Appi (sister). We will see you later". Waali said holding her hand as he walks to his room
Once inside he pushes her to stand in front of him. She looks down at her hands annoyed that he held her too hard making her skin a little red. He watches the frown on her face probably because he pulls her away from Gulzar making him angry as he places his hand under her chin forcing her to look at him.
She glares at him as he speaks, "Listen to me carefully, stay away from my sister and brother in law. I don't ever want you to speak to them. Am I clear?".
She pushes his hand away, "I am not interested in building relationships in this house anyway. I am here because you blackmail me".
He holds her hand pulling her towards him, "I don't care. I told you clearly what I expect so if you don't follow directions there will be consequences and my sister is going to have a baby I don't want her to stress out because of someone like you".
She tries to push him away only for him to pull her more firmly. She looks at him anger burning in her eyes, "Let me be clear about something too I don't like being manhandled and I don't like that you push me around like I am your personal toy. Keep your hands to yourselves before I break them".
"You have anger issues don't you?". He asked smirking
She rolls her eyes not surprise that he knows about her condition, "Yes and trust me I am holding myself back for a moment if you step out of your line there will be consequences".
He smirks.

"Why did you marry her?". Gulzar asked curiously as they sit in the lounge
He shrugs, "Why do you marry people?. Because you like them".
"There are many other reasons". Gulzar said clenching his hands
"What?". He asked confused
"Nothing. Congratulations on your wedding though I wished you allowed us to celebrate all your functions instead of doing it this fast". Gulzar said smiling
"There is no need for those functions". He said standing, "I will leave now".
He walks upstairs towards his room and he is nervous for the first time. He scolds himself before he opens the door entering inside. He sees her sitting with a book in her hands as she draws.
He forgets she is an architect.
He rolls his eyes watching her dress in a casual dress walking towards his bed laying down. For a second, he lay there looking at her back and side face but then he switches off the lights.
"Hey". She said loudly, "Open them".
"No, I want to sleep". He lied

"You can sleep even if they are open. Now, open them". She said finding her way through the darkness towards the switch beside him
She switches the light on.
"No, my house my rules". He said switching them off standing beside her
"That is an old-line just like you". She said turning them on
"No, it isn't and I am as young as a baby". He argued
"You are a baby for sure". She said hiding her smile as she switches the lights on again
"That is an old-line too". He said smirking
She switches the lights on facing him inches away from him, "At least it was better than yours".
He switches the light off but they hear a loud noise shutting the lights of the whole house down.
"You did it". They both said blaming one another
"No, you did it". He said
"No, you did". She said taking a step back only to bump into the cabinet beside the bed hissing, "God! Nothing good comes out when I am with you I can only imagine how much I am going to suffer because of your bad luck charm".
"Shut up". He said pushing her away from him only to him stumble and falling along with her on the bed
The lights come on right at that moment as they look at one another.
She blinks first and speaks with sarcastically, "That was original".
"Go away". He said pushing her
She stands quickly, "Like I was going to stay here forever".
"Girls die to stay in my arms". He said smirking
She walks back to the small couch, "They will certainly die".
"Your jokes are old". He said laying down with a smile
"At least they are joke". She said smiling to herself
"You are not sleeping anywhere near me". He said spreading on the bed
"Why? Scared?". She asked smirking, "Then again you should be scared".
"I am not scared". He said sitting on his bed
"I believe you". She said sarcastically
"If this is one of your tricks to-". He started
"I would die than ever try to seduce someone who blackmails me into a marriage that's not even the last thing I will do. As for your bed, your highness, I am not interested in being anywhere near you and that bed is out of option. I will sleep on this couch. I know my place". She said closing her eyes
"At least you know your place". He said closing his eyes
Her heart clench.
******
She lay awake because the place is too short for her to sleep. Her legs remain hanging in the air and her mind keeps playing the eyes of a certain someone. She cannot believe she ends in the same house as that man.
She sighs.
She moves her blanket sitting on the couch bringing her legs to herself hugging herself. It is a totally new and unfamiliar place for her with no one warm towards her she cannot even trust anyone here. She knows she has to hide her heart away and lock it down before these people play with it.
With that thought she allows sleep to engulf her.
He sees her tossing and turning the whole time until it goes silent completely. He sees as the moonlight from the window beside her shines on her as she sits there hugging herself in her own thoughts. He can see the protective walls around her and to anyone looking at her now they will think she is innocent when she isn't. He knows he had to hide his heart away before she plays with it.

With that thought, he closes his eyes going to his peaceful sleep.
The next day she wakes before him thankful that she is the first one. She quickly takes the clothes out of her handbag running inside the bathroom.
She washes when she hears the door banging and his angry shouts exciting her to further take time to dress. She slows down her process as his threat increases to breaking the door making her chuckle.
"Go ahead. I am sure everyone will love to see you shower with open doors". She said laughing
"I am sure you will love it". He said
She gags at his words rolling her eyes opening the door to the red bull. She chuckles at her thoughts but hides her smile as soon as he glares. She moves aside allowing him to go inside.
"Thank you, your highness". He said sarcastically
"Yeah, that how you should be talking. I guess you do have some manner left". She said as he shuts the door in her face
She laughs silently not wanting the red bull to hear and walks back outside. She moves to her handbag taking out her accessories with her office suit. She wears everything giving herself one look turning around to the sound of the door opening.
In walk the glory- bull himself wearing his suit. She admires him for a moment before she scolds herself for being an idiot. She promises herself last night she cannot be sway by these charms.
"What are you thinking about so much?". He said smirking
"About how ugly you are". She said making a face looking at him
He takes steps closer to her making her step back, "Really?. Because I thought I saw something else".
"Probably your eyes have problem, go to a doctor". She said rolling her eyes ignoring how close he is to her
"Are you sure my eyes have problem?. Because they are the one who chooses you". He said softly losing himself when her beautiful eyes look at him
"No, you didn't choose me. You forced me". She said narrowing her eyes
"Here I thought your fire is gone". He said
"With you, never". She said moving away from him
She walks towards her bag checking her iPad for today schedule. As she reads through the schedule she can see how hard it is for these two months. Since she is the leader she has more meeting especially bigger ones with more powerful people.
She likes the schedule anyway. The more busy she is, the better. She doesn't like sitting ideal anyway. Her moving is what is keeping her orphanage going and keeping everyone together.
She looks for her book placing it in her bag heading outside when someone holds her hand.
She sighs.
She turns around looking at him clearly asking him his problem, "What do you think everyone will think if the newlywed comes down separately?".
She shrugs, "How will I know?. I have never seen a newlywed before. Plus, it will probably mean that you take more time than me to get ready".
"You are not funny". He said frowning, "Now, be nice".
"Yes, sir". She said rolling her eyes as she follows behind him
Just as they reach the last few stairs he suddenly holds her hand making her push him away immediately but he tightens his grip even more. She turns to look around the swollen face sister and her stupid husband looking at them. As she sees Gulzar she steps behind Waali walking downstairs.
"She doesn't deserve to be in our house". His sister yelled
She wonders if this woman throat is ok because the amount of screaming she does it should be sour by now.
"Appi (sister), can we eat breakfast?". He said softly
She turns her head to face the red bull looking at him wide eyes.
Is the bull being soft?. She thoughts
She never knows that his sister can make him softly. Feeling her gaze at him he turns around sending a glare when a smirk comes on her face.
She shrugs not effected.
"No, she cannot-". His sister started
"Actually, thank you but I am not interested in sharing a meal with you so if you will excuse me". She said taking her hand out of his hand walking away
She hears her phone ringing as she picks the call walking towards her Nissan GT-R (sports car model) leaning on it.
"What is it, baby?". She said softly listening to Asad's voice
"Will you come to visit?". Asad asked excitedly
She smiles, "Of course, I will".
"Ok. Can you-". Asad started but someone takes her phone away from her
She turns to glare at Waali standing there with her phone.
"What is it?". She said angrily
He steps closer to her, "Why did you speak to my sister that way?".
"What way?. You said I shouldn't associate with them then why do I share a meal with them?". She asked
"I said to follow directions". He said angrily
"I don't follow anything. You blackmail me into coming here and that's the only thing I listened to. There will be no more listening to you". She said taking her phone sitting inside her car quickly
He knocks her door but she drives off to her office.
He stomps his feet angrily as he walks around to calm himself down. He hears a chuckle making him look directly at Muzamil.
"What?". He asked angrily
"You found your match". Muzamil said
******
"I cannot believe this". Safa said angrily
"Just ignore it. I will be out of it before you know it". She said sipping her coffee
"You are married". Safa said each word slowly, "Do you think that's a joke?".
"I don't but I want to treat it as one to not take it to my heart". She said sadly, "He says all these words all the time that hurts so much but I pretend through that it didn't".
Safa places her hand on her, "I know. It must be hard. We will find a way".
She nodded.
"I have the president meeting this week right?". She asked
Safa nodded, "You need to do your best, ok?".
"I will. I have to go now I have to visit the children". She said taking her bags
"Good luck". Safa said hugging her tightly
She moves away smiling as she walks back to her car. Soon, she enters the orphanage again smiling freely looking at everyone playing. She sees Asad and Amir standing in the corner as they talk and play among themselves.
She walks slowly standing behind Asad gesturing Amir to be quiet. She places her hands on his eyes, "Guess who?".
"Hmmm, Ruksana?". Asad said smiling
"No, guess again". She said pouting making Amir laugh
"Amna?". Asad said
"How can you do this to me?. I thought I was your one true love". She said dramatically sitting in front of him
Asad smiles, "I know it was you".
She brushes his hair away, "I know, baby. How are you feeling?".
"Now that you are here so good". Asad said smiling
"You forgot about me again". Amir said pouting
"I can forget the world, not you, my love". She said kissing his forehead, "How about we watch a movie?".
The two boys nodded ecstatically as she drives Asad's wheelchair inside with Amir falling behind them.
"They said that there are very little chances for him". The guardian said as they see the two boys sleeping cuddling each other
She smiles sadly, "We can try our best everything else is to the lord".
******
She enters the house lost in her thoughts about how she is losing Asad in front of her own eyes. She is trying her best to not break along with everyone but the more she keeps it in the harder it gets.
She receives a slap as she takes a few steps in making her come out of her thoughts almost killing his sister. But she clenches her hands closing her eyes as she reminds herself that she is going to have a baby and she cannot kill her yet.
"What?". She said angrily opening her eyes back when she is calm enough not to kill
"Where have you been all day?". His sister yelled
"What are you?. My mother?". She said pushing her lightly away going to the stairs, "And the next time you raise your hands on me I will forget that you are having a baby".
He sighs.
"Appi (sister), she works and has things of her own". He said softly placing his hands on her sister's shoulder
His sister moves his hand, "Now you are taking her side".
He sees his sister angrily walking away and then turns to look at Gulzar who is looking at his room door.
"What is it?". He asked
"She shouldn't have hit her like that". Gulzar said
He walks back to his room waiting for the screaming to come but he enters inside looking around to no sign of her. He hears the shower running and move to lay down on the bed.
Just then the door opens and his eyes move towards her who walks inside looking beautiful with her wet hair. She moves towards the dressing blow-drying her hair before she can sleep because all she wants now is sleep.
She takes her iPad walking to the couch as she looks at the schedule for tomorrow. She receives a message from Safa that she has something important to talk about with the last reply she closes her eyes.
He waits for a moment then steps down for his bed walking where she is laying down. He watches as she sleeps peacefully not exactly how he imagined. He is pretty sure she would have killed her behind the doors but she didn't.
She turns in her sleep and he sees the red mark on her cheek now visibly. He bends down in front of her as he moves his hand tracing the mark. He brings the medicine applying it on her cheeks slowly blowing it so it doesn't hurt.
He hears the door knocking making him panic because she is sleeping and he doesn't want anyone to come to see her sleeping on the couch. However, before he can do anything the door opens and in walk Gulzar with a glass of milk.
He covers her with his jacket looking at Gulzar.
"She is sleeping on the couch?". Gulzar said
"She was tired so she just slept while working. Is there something you want?". He asked wanting him to leave
"Oh, I came to apologise and give her this milk". Gulzar replied
Waali sees her turning around obviously because of the noise and he didn't really want her to be awake. So, he said he doesn't want milk asking Gulzar to leave. Just as Gulzar leaves he sighs in relief.
He turns around moving back to sitting in front of her looking at her face. He sees a tear escape her eye as she whimpers in her sleep.
"Please, don't go". She begged, "Please".

The Badboy Prince Just Can't Resist
"Why are you so nervous?" "I'm not.""Your pupils dilate every time you look at me. What are you so worried about, sweetheart?" He asks me, his warm breath fanning my ear. I rolled my eyes, and he took that as a response. "Why are you so afraid of me, Annalise?""I'm not," I repeated in a firm tone, trying to stop my body's temptation of leaning into his touch. "Then why can't you think properly while so close to me?" Damien's lips were now grazing my ear. His strong arms expertly pull me in, arms crossed around my waist ready to spin me back out. I despised the way he made me feel when we would dance, as if I liked being under his lead- it infuriated me. "I can think just fine." I spin myself back out, trying to take control. He chuckled,"This is why I find you so intriguing. You want to resist me, and I haven't found somebody like that before. It's quite frustrating, having someone who doesn't bend to my will."The nerve of this man!I scowled,"I'm not just going to follow your every command. Being a Prince doesn't mean you gain-""I could give you anything. A title or land, and any other girl-""I'm not just 'another girl' who will bend to your standards. I don't have time to pamper your ego as if you own the school.""In fact, I do. Thank you for reminding me sweetheart, sometimes I forget." Arrogance laced his tone, sending my fury into overdrive."I am nobody's sweetheart, especially not yours."His laugh sent vibrations through my body,"You have never failed to amuse me. I think we should get to know each other better." I felt his lips against my ear curl into a sly smirk.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Cover by @afranticdreamer#4 romance #1 royal 9-29-2020#1 kingdom 3-30-2020#3 king 4-3-2020#1 princess 4-13-2020#1 new 5-14-2020-All rights reserved -Kick back and enjoy a book with a little bit of mystery, magic, humor, and don't forget romance

The Weaver's Wrath
Millennia have passed since the end of the God Wars. Mankind's heroes of these wars, the powerful Luminescents, have since become the rulers of the lands, relying on their ancestors' deeds to fuel their own ambitions. The Church itself has fractured since the death of their Goddess. Now it has shifted its focus to a new power - the descendents of the men and women who had received her blessing in the past - the Luminescents. However, with the death of the Goddess Selene, their own abilities began to lessen in quality with each successive generation, leaving them grasping desperately at whatever they can; money, lands, power. Sevrath was born in a time far different than that of ages past. Much of the continent was under the rule of the powerful Luminescent rulers. The Gods were dead and gone; the age of man had begun. Only the Desolate Lands lay unconquered and resolute, a relic of the power of Deimos, the God of Death and Destruction. So when he is found near the borders of the Desolate Lands, what does it mean? Is he some spawn of demon, like many of the townsfolk of Carthal believe, or something else altogether? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This will not necessarily be something that is updated often.
