Through the ashes

Some loves are born in silence, some are forged in fire... and some survive only by walking through the ashes. Manal Shah was once the sunlit heart of her world—until loss, betrayal, and duty turned her into a ghost of the girl she used to be. Nayel Durrani was the boy who watched her light fade and could do nothing… until fate forced them into a bond neither of them chose. In a world where names hold more power than truth, and pride is deadlier than love, two souls must confront the wreckage of their past to find what still lives beneath the ruin. Because sometimes, what survives the fire is stronger than what existed before it.
