Chapter 2: The Glance That Shattered Worlds

Westfield London hummed with the restless energy of December 26, 2025. The post-Christmas sales had drawn crowds from every corner of the city. Families dragged oversized bags from designer outlets, couples shared hot chocolates under strings of golden lights, and the air carried a festive mix of cinnamon, roasted nuts, and expensive cologne. The marble floors reflected the sparkle of holiday decorations overhead, turning the entire mall into a glittering labyrinth.

Amber Singh Rathore walked through it all with a lightness she had rarely felt. This outing had taken weeks of careful negotiation with her parents back in Jaipur. A simple shopping trip with two classmates from St. Catherine’s Academy. Nothing extravagant. Nothing risky. Just a few hours of normalcy in a life that had never truly been normal.

Support helps me create the kind of stories that breathe fire, raw, emotional, and unafraid of desire. My goal is to write with honesty, explore the depth of power and surrender, and build a space where readers who crave intensity feel seen. Every bit of support lets me go deeper into the world I’m crafting… and stay committed to telling the truth of these characters.

Data scientist by day, and after sunset I slip into the unknown, exploring my own sensuality through the stories I write. One day, when the universe feels reckless, my Dom might find these words.
