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

    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

  • RAGING FLAME   Chapter 1-A dream?

    I felt an overwhelming exhaustion despite being hugging my pillow in my beloved bed, the luxurious satin bedcover cool against my skin, its matching pillow offering comfort. The moonlight streamed through the window, casting a dim glow across the room, gentle enough to keep my sleep undisturbed. But as I slowly opened my eyes, I became aware of a presence that shattered the stillness—a distinct thud of shoes approaching. Even in my drowsy intoxicated state, I turned my head, my vision hazy, to see a robust figure moving through the shadows. His features were striking, though the dim light and my sleepy eyes made it hard to make out the details. He moved with a casual confidence, unbuttoning his shirt, the fabric sliding off his broad shoulders, then removing his coat and shoes as if he belonged here, as if this were his nightly ritual. I rubbed my eyes, trying to focus, but my body was sluggish, my mind heavy. He leaned over me, his one knee pressing into the bed, his hand reachin

    **Amira pov** After attending to a few patients in my OPD, despite my headache and a few lingering concerns on my mind, I made my way to the office where I received a pager from a hospital administrator . On my way,I sent a message on my phone instructing my colleagues to take a break after completing their tasks and to contact me in case of any emergencies within our workforce group, which includes residents Ethan, Sofia, and Eva. Upon entering the office room and noticing the name "dr.Mia Bennett" on the board, I anticipated the purpose of my visit. "Please don’t discussing that. Just t leave me alone," I stated before taking a seat in front of Mia, my closest friend. Mia's immediate response was, "How can you possibly forget everything? What is holding you back?" Without meeting Mia's gaze, I focused on playing with my ring, prompting Mia to notice and inquire, "Is it that ring that's holding you back?" Uncertain, I replied, "I'm not sure." Mia advised, "Amira, you need to

    **Amira pov**One evening, after an exceptionally tough day at the hospital, my friends suggested to join at a bar nearby. It wasn’t unusual for them to grab a drink together after a long shift, so I agreed after their multiple requests. My friends got excited especially Ryan’s expression changed and he was excited after he saw me joining them. Looks like he had already drunk enough to get tipsy , seems like he had done many surgeries today. I had few shots with them. I enjoyed the sight of fun dance moves made by my friends Mia, Eva, Daniel and I recorded them to make fun of them later. Me and Ryan was sitting in the cushion and having some drinks and chatting. He is not even giving proper answer just looking at me with blushing face.His usual confident demeanor seemed to falter as he downed his drink and looked at me with an intensity he wasn’t used to.“Amira,” he began, his voice slightly slurred, “I need to tell you something.”I looked at him, puzzled. “What’s up, Ryan?”“I’ve

    **Amira pov**The next morning, I walked into the hospital with a single mission: avoid Ryan at all costs. I threw myself into my work, taking on as many patients as possible, anything to keep myself busy. I even avoid having lunch with my friends by eating late by engaging myself in work. But every time I walked past the surgical wing, my heart would skip a beat, wondering if Ryan was nearby."Amira, you okay?" Eva asked as we took a quick coffee break together. She was one of my closest friends, someone I could always count on for support."Yeah, just tired," I lied, giving her a forced smile.Yet she managed to read my mind again”Well, you can’t avoid him forever. You need to talk to him, Amira. Ryan’s a good guy. He doesn’t deserve to be left hanging like this," she advised, her tone gentle but firm. Eva reached across the table, squeezing my hand. "Amira, you have to let yourself move on. You deserve to be happy."I nodded, but her words didn’t make it any easier. How could I m

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 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.

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.

    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

    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.

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

    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.
