Aashiq Surrender Hua

Marisol never imagined she was anything more than an ordinary, broken girl—until her life fell apart. A family that neglected her, the destruction of her beloved stuffed doll, and a spiraling series of tragedies reveal a darker truth: she is a dark seed, an unwitting fragment of a malevolent force known as the Core. Destined to bring chaos and destruction, she is caught between the pull of her own darkness and the world’s desperate attempts to erase her existence. When Eri, a Gothic Lolita demon born from the Core’s influence, emerges from the shadows to protect her, Marisol embarks on a harrowing journey of survival. Hunted by cultists who worship the Core, pursued by a determined scientist seeking to harness her powers for salvation, and haunted by her growing connection to a cosmic battle between light and dark, Marisol must uncover the truth of her existence. Guided by Aiden, a detective whose unwavering belief in her challenges her darkest instincts, Marisol resists the whispers of the Core. But every step closer to freedom pulls her deeper into the eternal conflict between Sylva, the guardian of the Tree of Life, and the Core’s remnants. As the lines between hero and villain blur, Marisol faces an impossible choice: to surrender to the Core’s influence or carve her own path at a devastating cost.

But when two people refuse to surrender, the only thing left is war.” Daniel Smith had it all—money, power, and the kind of devastating charm that made women weak in the knees. He was untouchable, unstoppable, a man who played by his own rules. Until his family forced him into the one thing he never wanted—marriage. Regina Green was no delicate rose.

Neither of them would bow. Neither of them would break. Their marriage was a battlefield drenched in tension—where every glance was a challenge and every argument pushed them closer to a line they swore they’d never cross. Hate was their language, desire was their weapon, but falling for each other? That was never supposed to be part of the plan.
