The City of Shadows
In the rain-soaked alleys of an unnamed city, two strangers collide — not by fate, but by exhaustion. Aarav, a quiet writer running from the weight of his own memories, finds Anaya — broken, bruised, and unconscious at a train station bench.
She doesn’t want to be found.
He never meant to care.
But something in her silence mirrors his own.
As days pass and fragile trust begins to form, their quiet companionship becomes a refuge neither of them expected. But the past isn’t done with either of them. Anaya is being hunted — not by monsters, but by people she once called her own. Aarav holds a truth of his own — one that could shatter the fragile world they’ve just begun to build.
Set in a world that feels too real to be fiction, The City of Shadows is not a story of grand miracles, but of small moments that save lives.
It’s a deeply emotional journey through trauma, healing, and the kind of love that doesn't arrive with fireworks — but with quiet tea cups, shared balconies, and the promise to stay even when it hurts.
Because sometimes, the most dangerous place isn't the world outside…
but the memories we carry within.
