The days that followed my conversation with Ryan were a mix of relief and continued tension. The weight of his feelings, now out in the open, hung between us, altering the dynamics of our friendship. I couldn’t help but replay our conversation in my mind, the guilt gnawing at me. I knew I couldn’t continue to leave him in limbo, but the thought of moving forward while still entangled in my past was overwhelming. A few days later, I decided to take a step forward. I couldn’t bring myself to talk to Ryan just yet, but I knew I needed to start dealing with the mess I had left behind. I went to the locker tried removing my engagement ring from my finger, the symbol of a relationship that had ended in confusion and pain. It was so tight that I got scared of losing my finger. My fingers trembled as I pulled it out, the small band feeling heavy in my hand. For a moment, I simply stared at it, memories flooding back—both the good and the bad. I kept my ring into the locker and closed it . Then, with a deep breath, I made a decision. I couldn’t keep clinging to the past, hoping for closure that might never come. I needed to move forward, even if that meant letting go of something that had once meant everything to me. The next morning, I walked into the hospital and headed straight for the pediatric ward. Ryan was there, checking on one of his post-op patients. When he saw me, his face lit up with a smile, but I could see the questions in his eyes. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what I needed to say. “Ryan, can we talk?” I asked, my voice steady. He nodded, following me into a quiet corner of the ward. I looked up at him, my heart pounding in my chest. This was it—no more running, no more avoiding the truth. “I’ve made a decision,” I began, meeting his gaze. “I’m ready to move forward, but I need to do it in a way that feels right for me. I care about you, Ryan. More than I’ve been able to admit to myself. But I need time. Time to sort through everything I’ve been holding onto, and time to make sure I’m truly ready for whatever comes next.” Ryan listened quietly, his expression thoughtful. When I finished, he nodded, reaching out to gently squeeze my hand. His touch was warm and reassuring, sending a spark of tenderness through me. “I understand, Amira. I’ll wait as long as you need. Just know that I’m here for you, no matter what.” His words brought a wave of relief, and for the first time in weeks, I felt like I could breathe again. The warmth of his hand in mine was a silent promise of support and affection. As we left it at that, agreeing to take things slow and see where they led us, I noticed the way his gaze lingered on me with a mix of hope and longing. It wasn’t a perfect solution, but the gentle, unspoken understanding between us felt like a tender beginning, a hint of romance blossoming in the space we were creating together. He gently grazed his knuckles over my cheek, his touch both tender and electrifying. “Had breakfast ?” he asked softly, his voice a soothing whisper that made my heart race. I felt a flutter of nerves and warmth at his proximity. He patted my head affectionately, a gesture that had once been friendly but now stirred something deeper within me. I nodded, blushing, overwhelmed by the new, intimate feeling of his touch. His laughter was light and affectionate, deepening the newfound, romantic connection between us.Related chapters
RAGING FLAME Chapter 7 -the headache
**Amira pov**Every morning not exactly every morning but most of the morning,I woke up with a pounding headache, the stress and guilt manifesting in physical pain. I knew it wasn’t normal, so I scheduled some tests at the hospital without the knowledge of my friends. But the results came back clear, leaving me more frustrated than ever.I consulted with my colleagues in the medicine department, but no one could give me a definitive answer. They suggested it might be stress-related, but I knew it was more than that. It was the weight of my unresolved past, the constant reminder that I hadn’t closed the door on my marriage, that I was living in a limbo of my own making.———————-With my ring out of sight, I allowed myself to fully embrace my feelings for Ryan. We started spending more time together, and our bond grew stronger with each passing day. The chemistry between us was undeniable, and it felt like a natural progression from our friendship.Ryan was always attentive, making sure

**Amira**I always had prided myself on being in control, both in my personal life and my career as a pediatrician. But all of that began to unravel the day Ryan confessed his love for me. Since then, my carefully constructed walls had been slowly crumbling, leaving me vulnerable in ways I never anticipated.It was a typical morning in the hospital, with the usual flurry of activity as doctors, nurses, and patients filled the halls. I was checking on my patients with junior residents in tow. The children made cute interactions with us. But today, my mind kept drifting back to Ryan.Ryan, the brilliant surgeon who had been my friend for years, had become something much more complicated. Our relationship had always been close, but since his confession, there was a new tension between us—one that was both exciting and terrifying."Dr. Amira, are you with us?"

**Amira**The cafeteria is bustling with activity, the sound of clattering trays and the murmur of conversation filling the air. But despite the noise, I can’t stop thinking about Ryan, about the way his touch lingered on mine, about the way my heart seems to speed up every time he’s near.“You’re distracted,” Mia says, her eyes narrowing as she studies me.“What? No, I’m not,” I reply, a little too quickly.Eva smirks, leaning back in her chair with a knowing look. “She’s totally distracted.”“By a certain surgeon, perhaps?” Mia teases, her voice light but full of implication.I feel my cheeks flush with embarrassment, and I quickly take a sip of water to hide my reaction. “You two are ridiculous.”“Ridiculously right,” Eva quips, her grin widening. “It’s so obvious, Amira.”“There’s nothing going on,” I protest, though the words feel hollow even to my own ears.“Uh-huh,” Mia says, clearly unconvinced. “That’s why you practically light up every time he walks into a room.”I open my m

**Amira**On fine evening after my shift got over , I got surprised when Ryan waited for me in my office for an hour even after he finished his work. It amused me about the fact that how did he knew I didn’t bring my car today. Then I remembered my dear friend Daniel with whom I shared the news about my punctured car tire .Make it in good sentence as we walked side by side down the quiet corridor, the tension between us felt almost palpable. My heart raced, a mix of nervousness and excitement churning inside me, as I stole a glance at Ryan. He seemed lost in thought, his brow slightly furrowed, but when he noticed me looking, his expression softened, and he gave me a small, reassuring smile.The sight of it—the way his lips curved just for me—sent a flutter through my chest. I felt a sudden surge of boldness, a determination to bridge the gap between us once and for all. I didn’t want to wait any longer. The feelings I had been holding back, the longing and uncertainty, were too much

But now, there was an added layer to our relationship—a warmth that lingered in every shared glance, every fleeting touch.everyday I wake up from the bed with a headache but soon after it disappears after seeing him in hospital. We began dating openly, no longer hiding our affections from the world. It was exhilarating, but it also came with its challenges. The hospital was a small world, and news spread quickly. Our colleagues, especially our close friends, didn’t take long to catch on. Mia, was the first to tease us. She caught us one morning as we were grabbing coffee in the staff lounge, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “Well, well, what do we have here?” she said, her tone dripping with mock surprise as she looked between the two of us. “I knew there was something going on between you two!” Ryan and I exchanged a glance, both of us unable to suppress our smi

The hospital’s usual hustle had settled into a gentle hum by the time I wrapped up my final tasks for the day. The usual beeps and murmurs had quieted to a soothing backdrop, and I found myself looking forward to the evening ahead. Tonight was special—Daniel had invited me and rest of our friends for the dinner at his place.Ryan’s voice was a comforting sound as it cut through my thoughts. “Amira, ready to head out?”I looked up to see him standing in the doorway of my office, his presence instantly putting me at ease. His casual attire was a stark contrast to the sterile, formal environment of the hospital, and it was a welcome change. I could see the warmth in his eyes and the easy smile on his lips, and my heart skipped a beat.“Just about,” I said, closing my laptop and grabbing my coat. The anticipation of spending a relaxed evening with him and our friends filled me with a gentle thrill.We walked to the parking lot together, our fingers brushing occasionally. Each touch sent a

The sun was beginning to set, casting a warm, golden hue over the rooftop garden where I had often found solace. Ryan and I somehow managed to carve out a rare moment of peace from our hectic schedules, and we decided to escape to this quiet corner of the world. The garden was our little secret, a hidden gem where I could breathe, feel the breeze, and pretend, just for a while, that the world wasn’t so overwhelming.I stood by the edge, staring out over the city as the lights began to twinkle in the distance. Ryan was behind me, pressing my head with gentle force. I love how he cared about me. My head leaned back on his chest melting in the head massage. I turned back and hugged him closing my eyes. That’s it, this what I needed to boost up my energy.We didn’t say anything; we didn’t need to. The silence was full of unspoken words, of shared moments and stolen glances. The soft hum of the city and the rustle of leaves filled the air around us, but I was only aware of him, of us.We st

As the evening deepened, a soft glow from the table lamp illuminated the cozy living room of Ryan’s apartment. He cooked my favourite dish . I felt so lucky to get a boyfriend who cooks. The city hummed faintly outside, but inside, everything felt muted, intimate, as if the world had shrunk down to just the two of us. I had come over for a simple dinner, but now we were sitting on his couch watching movie,close enough that I could feel the warmth of his body next to mine, our conversation ebbing into a comfortable silence.I wasn’t sure how it happened, how the gentle touch of his hand on mine turned into something more. Maybe it was the way he looked at me, his gaze so tender and full of unspoken promises. Or maybe it was the way my heart had been aching for him, my mind torn between what I wanted and what I knew was complicated. Whatever it was, it drew me to him, making me lean in just a little closer, my breath hitching as our lips met in a slow, lingering kiss.There was somethin

The morning sun glared through my apartment windows as Mia barged in unceremoniously, dragging Eva and Daniel behind her.“Get up, Amira! We’re going out, and you’re not saying no!” Mia declared, hands on her hips.I groaned, pulling the blanket over my head. “Mia, it’s Monday. Don’t you guys have duty!”“Nope. Why do we have to fear for job security if we have Mia The great,” Daniel added, grinning as he plopped onto the edge of my bed.“Besides,” Eva chimed in, “we already planned the whole thing. It’s a half-day trip. You’ll thank us later.”Realizing resistance was futile, I sighed and dragged myself out of bed.When we got downstairs, I felt a bit awkward seeing him. Ryan was sitting in the driver’s seat of the car, waiting with a smile.“Oh no,” I muttered, turning to Mia. “This isn’t what I signed up for.”She smirked. “Relax. It’s a group thing. Ryan just happens to be driving. Pure coincidence.”“Sure,” I replied dryly, sliding into the front passenger seat as they shoved me

I was at the grocery store, trying to focus on my list, when something caught my eye—a large magazine cover displayed near the checkout counter. Aiden’s face stared back at me, his signature smirk perfectly captured in the glossy photograph. The headline boasted about his latest project and his growing influence in the business world.I froze for a moment, my stomach churning. Just as I tried to look away, two girls nearby began giggling and whispering, their voices carrying across the aisle.“Oh my God, have you seen him? He’s so hot,” one of them said, holding up the magazine.“Right? I wouldn’t mind being locked in a boardroom with him,” the other added with a sly laugh.I arched an eyebrow in disbelief, gripping the tomatoes in my hand. Their voices grated on my nerves, and an irrational urge to shut them up with the tomato in my basket.“Do they even know what they’re talking about?” I muttered under my breath, shaking my head.Deciding I’d had enough, I left the store in a hurry
RAGING FLAME Chapter 91
The day Denis asked for my help turned out to be a turning point in the stillness of my life. At first, I hesitated when he called, his voice apologetic as he explained his situation. His son Adam needed to be picked up from school, and with an unfinished workload at the office, he had no one else to rely on. Something about his tone left me unable to say no.“I’ll do it,” I said simply, knowing I needed to step outside my cocoon for once.I grabbed my keys and headed out, taking the stairs instead of the elevator. It felt strange stepping out after so many days of isolation, but I also felt a lightness in my chest—a sense of normalcy.I reached the school and found Adam waiting with his backpack, his face lighting up when he saw me.“Amira!” he called, running toward me.I smiled at his excitement. “Hey, Adam. Ready to go?”He nodded eagerly, holding my hand as we walked back to the car. He was chatty on the ride home, telling me all about his day, his friends, and a funny story abou
RAGING FLAME Chapter 90 - I am back
I opened my eyes slowly, the world around me gradually coming into focus. I was really scared about the most fu*k imagination. I never got scared of Aiden like yesterday . The ceiling above me looked strangely familiar. The soft hum of silence filled the air, broken only by the occasional muffled sound of the city outside. I sat up abruptly, my breath catching as realization dawned.This was my room. My apartment. My sanctuary in the U.S.I blinked, trying to process how I ended up here. The last thing I remembered was chaos—a whirlwind of emotions, arguments, and Aiden. Always Aiden.I looked around the room, my gaze landing on a familiar sight. Leo, my loyal companion, my little bundle of warmth, lay curled up in his basket near the window. His soft golden fur rose and fell with his steady breaths, a comforting rhythm amidst the confusion swirling in my mind.“Leo,” I whispered, my voice trembling. He stirred at the sound of my voice, lifting his head and giving me a sleepy look bef

This night in the bar, I found Ryan with bruised face sitting on the counter , it seemed like he couldn’t get out from his feelings.I sat near him like I won.But,Ryan’s words had pierced through me like a thousand daggers, each one sharper with a sarcastic smile.“You can’t keep her in your gilded cage forever, Aiden,” Ryan had said, his smug grin grating on my nerves. “She’s not some trophy to be won. You let her go for even a second, and she’ll run to me. Face it—you’ll never be the man she wants.”I clenched my fists under the table, the urge to wrap my hands around his throat barely contained. But I didn’t. I had to be smarter than that. Killing him in a public bar would solve nothing, and besides, I wanted to break him in a way he would never forget.I leaned back in my seat, keeping my voice calm despite the fire raging inside me. “Amira isn’t running to anyone,” I said evenly. “Least of all, to you.”Ryan laughed, the sound mocking and filled with disdain. “Oh, Aiden, you’re

I watched Amira crumble before my eyes, her breaths shallow and fast, her entire frame trembling as though the weight of the world had collapsed onto her shoulders.Her hand clutched the edge of the table as she staggered toward the balcony, desperate for air. She looked like she was suffocating, her movements frantic, her eyes darting as if she were searching for an escape—from me.Her hand slipped from the table, and she fell to her knees, her body trembling uncontrollably. My heart dropped. “Amira” I rushed forward, my hands outstretched, ready to catch her, to hold her and soothe her the way she always refused to let anyone else do.“Don’t,” she gasped, her voice barely audible but laced with fear. She flinched away from me, recoiling as though my touch would burn her.That movement—so small, yet so devastating—struck me harder than any blow ever could. She was afraid of me. Afraid. Of me.My chest tightened as the realization sank in, a cold, bitter weight settling in my gut. I

"You're a virgin," he stated, his voice a mix of surprise and excitement.I turned my face away, too humiliated to meet his gaze. He pulled out of me and I felt a gush of blood flow out of me. He reached down and wiped my tears, then leaned in to kiss my neck, his lips soft and possessive against my skin."I love you, Amira," he murmured. "You're mine now, all mine."But even as he spoke the words, a small part of me rebelled against them. I didn't want to be owned, to be controlled by his jealousy and possessiveness. So I lashed out, desperate to hurt him the way he had hurt me."You know what, Aiden?" I began, my voice shaky. "Ryan fucks me way better than you ever could.”The effect was immediate. Aiden's face darkened, his eyes flashing with rage. Now I got feeling that I made a wrong decision.You are so fucked up Amira - this is the only thing that was running my mind.He practically snarled as he slammed back into me, setting a brutal pace that left me gasping and crying out.

Trigger warning 🔞🔞🔞🔞I stood in stunned silence as Aiden dragged me into the bedroom, his hand gripping my neck forcefully. His eyes were blazing with a possession I had never seen before. He slammed the door shut behind us, the sound echoing through the room like a gunshot.I stumbled backwards, my heart pounding in my chest. Aiden began to shed his suit, loosened his tie, then his coat, throwing them carelessly to the floor. I watched him approach, my body instinctively taking a step back with each one he took forward, until I found myself pressed against the edge of the bed.I lost my balance and fell back onto the mattress, I moved back with my elbows.my head hitting the headboard with a thud. Aiden was on me in an instant, his body caging me in. I tried to squirm away but he grabbed my wrists in one large hand, easily subduing my struggle.He reached for his tie and used it to bind my wrists above my head, securing them to the bedpost. I looked up at him in shock and fear
RAGING FLAME Chapter 85
The atmosphere was thick with tension, and Aiden sat on the couch like a predator, watching my every move. His gaze was intense, like he was daring me to make an excuse. I took a cautious step forward, raising my hand in a small gesture, trying to defuse the storm I felt brewing in him.“Aiden, let me explain—”“Shut the fuck up!” he roared, his voice booming through the room and cutting through me like a blade. His mother, standing nearby, looked completely bewildered, her eyes darting between us. I flinched, my heart pounding wildly. Aiden’s fists clenched as he gripped the edge of the couch, his knuckles turning white, barely containing his rage.Then, from outside, I heard a scream—a familiar voice. My heart froze as I recognized Ryan’s voice. My eyes darted toward the entrance, and through the large windows, I saw two of Aiden’s men holding Ryan by his arms, barely letting him stand upright as they struck him.Without thinking, I moved to stop them. I was few incessantly before r
