When Mira first set foot in to the city of Bucharest to pursue her studies, she never expected to get involved in a near-fatal accident and get saved by a mysterious man. And she definitely didn’t plan on fantasising about him, only to discover that he is her professor, Izan. The attraction between grows to be undeniable, but Izan kept his distance, hiding a dark secret that could endanger them both. Mira was determined to find out more about him, even if it meant breaking the rules. And their paths intersect once more when she finds Izan injured in an alleyway, and she becomes his caretaker, realising the connection they share goes beyond just physical. But before she can understand their bond, he disappears without a trace, leaving her heartbroken. Week’s pass, and Mira discovers the truth behind Izan’s abrupt departure. Confronted by the reality of his existence, she still finds herself irresistibly drawn to him, despite the startling revelation that he is not human—he is a werewolf. As their worlds collide, secrets unravel, and a forbidden romance blossoms amidst the captivating allure of Bucharest. But their happiness is threatened by a dark force that seeks to destroy them. When Izan becomes the prime suspect of a murder he didn't commit, and Mira must prove his innocence before it's too late. Will they overcome the odds and find their happily ever after? Or will they lose each other in a web of lies and danger? Their journey unfolds, entwining fate, love, and the mystique of the supernatural, promising a destiny neither of them could have foreseen.

Destiny

“Thank you so much.” I sighed in relief. My savior, cladded in a not-so-shiny black hoodie, returned my phone—that had flew out of my hand when those thugs were running after me.  He gave me a nod then turned around.

“Wait! Can you give me your number? I wish to repay your kindness someday.” I sought after him but he shook his head and started slipping away into the darkness of the alleyway. “At least tell me your name!” I called after as he ran faster into the approaching darkness. “Wait!” I shouted as I ran after him but it was futile, no matter how hard I tried, he was always out of my reach.

I was brought back from my slumber to the continuous ringing of my phone. Another dream. The same beginning, the same ending with just a few things differing each time.  I glanced out the window from my study table at the corner of my room. The sun had started taking the shade of orange, casting the city in the hues of approaching evening. I sighed and picked up the phone.

“Hi Ma.”

“How are you darling? Have you eaten yet?” My mother’s voice filled the silent room with warmth.

I checked the time and shook my head as if she could see me through the phone. “I still have a few hours till dinner.”

“I see. Don’t forget your meals.”

“I won’t Ma. Look after yourself. I will call you later.” With a few more parting words we said our goodbyes, and I hung up the phone resting my head on cool surface of the table.

My stomach’s grumbling led me to the fridge, hoping for at least something edible. But all it offered was a lonely block of butter. Not exactly a five-star meal. I checked my phone, and scrolled through app after app— butno luck. Either they weren’t delivering or it’d take an eternity, well, two hours, which felt like forever when your stomach is trying to eat itself.

I stepped into the street, the city still in it's slumber of lazy afternoon, the hustle and bustle yet to start. I took in a deep breath and started walking through the quiet streets of Bucharest. Three days it had been since I set foot in this city, and it had welcomed me with an entourage of thugs to scare the life out of me. And just so I wouldn't complain, it also sent a man to save me from it all, but he ran away before I could even ask his name. And ever since he has haunted my dreams like a recurring character in a soap opera. Bucharest, you sure know how to throw a welcome party.

"Have a good night," the cashier bid me farewell in his charmingly broken English. I flashed a smile and nodded my thanks, uttering a feeble "Mulțumesc" - one of the few Romanian words I'd managed to pick up.

Exiting the store, I made a quick pit stop at the bakery, snagging a crusty Franzela loaf and a few other baked goodies. And just as I was walking out of the store, a loud crashing sound filled the relatively quiet street. In an instant people were running towards the source of the sound. Me? Well, crowds aren't really my jam, so I was ready to peace out. But just as I turned to bail, a swift movement caught my eye—a figure dashing toward the commotion. It was him! I spotted Mr. Mysterious-from-that-night hightailing it toward the chaos.

Without hesitation, I followed his fleeting figure into the gathering crowd. A car had pulled a number on a traffic light pole, shattering glass and causing a bit of a scene. The driver was trapped inside, and a few people were trying to pry the door open, but it didn’t seem to budge.

Then, my knight in not-so-shining armor rushed to them, helping them yank open the door and getting out the injured driver. I tried to see his face from above the shoulders of the tall spectators in front of me. In countries like this where all the people are tall as a tree, and me being as vertically challenged catching a glimpse was a challenge in itself. I fought my way to the front row, silently pleading for a clear view. But he had his back turned to me. I prayed with all my heart for him to turn around and my prayers were quickly answered. And there he was, slowly turning around, his face inching into sight—the sharp nose, the piercing hazel eyes. But just as I was about to send a 'thank you' mental postcard, paramedics barged in, bulldozing me aside like I was invisible. By the time I regained my footing and refocused, the man of my dreams had vanished into the scattering crowd. I stood there, feeling like I had just missed the grand finale of a show I didn't even know I was watching. The guy keeps on disappearing quicker than a ninja in a fog bank!

 

My mind went into overdrive, attempting a mental scan of the area, hoping against hope for a miraculous sighting. Reality check: I'm not exactly the world’s greatest detective, and this was no game of 'Spot the Hero' in a sea of onlookers.

“Great,” I muttered under my breath, trying to play it cool even though in reality I was going crazy!

“Another day in the life of almost getting a ‘thank you’ out to a stranger.” Disappointment, thy name is missing mysterious saviour.

With a resigned sigh, I tried to shake off the lingering frustration, giving into the fact that my knight in not-so-shiny armor had vanished. The sirens wailed in the background, the scene resembling a chaotic montage fading into the backdrop of the city's everyday hustle.

And ever since that encounter, I subconsciously started searching for him everywhere I went. He became my personal Where's Waldo puzzle, but he was playing hide-and-seek like a pro. He didn’t come with a manual, so I was stuck trying to figure out the cheat codes for this game of Find-the-Rescuer. His presence lingered in the back of my mind, and he was a reoccurring subject of my dreams. Is he behind the corner filled every inch of my thoughts. It was like my brain had set up a spotlight, constantly scanning for a glimpse of Mr. Mysterious. Spoiler alert: zero sightings so far.

With the clock ticking down to the start of the semester, I was on an Olympic-level sprint around town, on the hunt for those elusive apartment essentials. When I landed in this country, my baggage wasn't just limited to my overflowing suitcases of clothes. Nope, it also carried the weight of my aspirations, a few cherished books for sanity breaks, and the prized cargo—my mother's homemade food, a delicious piece of home squeezed into Tupperware containers.

In a town bustling with unfamiliar sights and sounds, finding the bare necessities for my apartment felt like a mini-adventure. From haggling over the price of a decent kettle to scouring the shelves for the perfect bedside lamp that didn’t resemble a spaceship control panel, every successful purchase was a victory dance waiting to happen. With each item secured they held the promise of transforming an empty space into a sanctuary be it only for two years.

But amidst the chaos of my hunt for home essentials, my internal radar was on high alert, subconsciously scanning every street corner for a glimpse of my elusive hero. It was like playing a game of hide-and-seek with someone who was the master of disappearing acts. Frankly, I was half-expecting to turn a corner and find him accidentally shopping for throw pillows or debating the color of curtains. Stranger things have happened, right?

The first day of the semester started ordinarily. I did the whole pleasantries exchange, got to know my classmates, and did the introduction dance. No surprises, just the usual academic new semester beginning. Then, day two strolled in like the sequel to a blockbuster movie. Stepped onto campus, expecting a run-of-the-mill day. But oh boy, was I in for a surprise.

The room got all hyped up with the impending arrival of the Literature of Modern Europe professor. My breath caught up in my throat when the door cracked opened and he walked in—confident and charismatic. A wave of familiarity hit me like a rogue wave at the beach. Yep, it was him, and suddenly, my academic routine got a whole lot more interesting.

Professor
Confidence wrapped around him like a cloak, his demeanour exuding an air of authority softened by a hint of approachability. Dark, tousled hair framed a face that could rival the ancient sculptures, with shades of mahogany and copper dancing through the strands, hinting at a hidden fire. His hazel eyes, behind clear glasses, shifted like chameleons, in hue with each flicker of emotion, an ocean of complexities shimmering beneath their surface. They held a certain depth, seemingly concealing a wealth of knowledge and experience. Standing tall at 6’2”, he effortlessly commanded attention, drawing gazes without any effort. The contrast between his crisp cream shirt and deep ocean blue slacks only added to his composed sophistication. In that instant, I was spellbound, entangled by a potent mix of awe and intrigue. The fleeting hero from that fateful night had transformed into an academic, adorning the guise of a professor within the walls of academia. The revelation sent a surge of quest

“So, where are you guys from?” Luca inquired as we settled into a cosy corner at the small table.“Born in America, grew up in France, studied in Germany, now living in this beautiful country of Romania hoping to come across perhaps Lord Transylvania or a handsome vampire,” Zoe shared dreamily, earning a chuckle from us. As I took a sip of my coffee, Luca’s curiosity turned to me.“Born grew up, and studied in Bangladesh,” I replied with a smile, noticing a flicker of puzzlement in Luca’s expression—a reaction I completely understood.“No offence, but where is that?” Luca asked sheepishly, his expression tinged with a slight embarrassment.“None taken,” I reassured him. “It’s in Asia, right beside India.”“Ah, I didn’t know, sorry,” Luca responded apologetically.“Don’t worry, it’s a small country and not often in the spotlight. I totally get it,” I reassured him.“Yeah, I came to know about Bangladesh when my flight to Japan had a layover there a few years ago,” Zoe chimed in between

Encounter
The countdown to the upcoming Modern Literature of Europe lecture crept by in agonizing slowness. Every passing second felt stretched into an eternity, though it amounted to just two days. Secretly, I found myself yearning to see him again, a desire I refused to admit aloud. His absence made the campus, not the largest expanse, but sizable enough to conceal him from my curious gaze.My attire for the day cascaded with deliberate elegance: an off-white shirt of satin texture gliding over my form, accentuated by a sleek black sweater vest. Paired with brown slacks, I meticulously folded the sleeves of my shirt, adding a touch of casual sophistication. Opting for a low ponytail, I allowed tendrils of hair to lazily frame my face, lending a subtle allure. A mere hint of moisturizer and sunscreen graced my skin, and as I set the sunscreen aside, my fingers grazed over my modest collection of lipsticks. Feeling a streak of boldness, I chose a dark shade of brown, one that harmonized with th

“I will, Sir. Thank you,” I assured, clutching the book tightly against me as he nodded.“Have a good day, Ms. Hanan,” he bid before stepping into the hallway.“You too, Sir.” A smile automatically crossed my lips as he walked away, leaving me with a strange fluttering sensation lingering in my chest.“Will that be all for today, Ms Hanan?” the librarian inquired politely as I returned the borrowed book to the library counter.“Yes, thank you,” I replied with a smile and turned around to leave only to remember something I needed.“There actually is something I needed help with. I'm looking for ‘The Anxiety of Influence’ by Harold Bloom,” I asked.“Of course. We have the book. It’s in the literature criticism section, aisle three, third shelf from the top,” the librarian directed, her tone helpful as I set off to locate the book.Navigating through the shelves, I traced the spine labels, scanning each row for the sought-after title. Finally, I spotted it, neatly nestled between other c

It was a lazy Saturday, and I found myself engrossed in a conversation with Zoe over the phone. She was still grilling me for being late to our café meet-up earlier in that week when I had stumbled into Izan. Luca was quick to brush it off but Zoe, well, she is Zoe.“Are you certain you will be able to make it tonight?” Zoe’s voice rang with a hint of exasperation, the question feeling all too familiar.It was a lazy Saturday, and I found myself engrossed in a conversation with Zoe over the phone.

Mind Merge
After the initial exchange, silence draped over us like a heavy curtain. It was not the comfortable kind of silence one might appreciate, at least not from my end. I kept my fingers busy on the keyboard, eyes glued to the screen, purposely avoiding any chance of our eyes meeting again.Despite my efforts, I couldn’t help but sneak peeks at Izan from time to time. He was totally absorbed in his book, jotting down notes like a pro. His pen danced between his fingers effortlessly, all his attention on the pages. I felt like a mere ghost of a person, invisible to him in the midst of all those words. It was like the world faded away around him, leaving me here, anxious and tapping my feet to disguise the nerves I couldn’t really explain. I shook my head, trying to snap out of it, and turned my focus back to the blank page on my laptop.I felt my frustration mounting as I sifted through the pile of books, notes, and endless tabs, trying to make sense of this paper. With a sigh, I slouched i

Housewarming
“Let’s find you something fabulous to wear,” Zoe exclaimed, rummaging through her wardrobe and presenting me with a series of outfit options.As we stood in her bedroom surrounded by an array of outfits strewn across the bed, Zoe’s eyes sparkled with excitement, eager to help me choose the perfect outfit for the night.“So, which one should we start with?” Zoe murmured eyeing all the options of dresses of different colours, design and style. I stood there frozen as I stared at the pile of clothes in front of me.It had been only five minutes since we reached her new apartment that was bustling with preparation for the housewarming party. And I was already in a robe, out of my simple peasant clothing. And the options of outfits laid in front of me was more than overwhelming.The first dress she handed me was a vibrant cobalt blue, its intricate lace overlay glistening under the room’s soft light. The dress hugged the figure in all the right places, but as I looked at my reflection, I

Intoxicated
Their kindness and warmth were undeniable, the scent of old money surrounded them, along with a hint of sophistication that hinted at their wealthy and refined upbringing. Yet, despite their privileged background, they exuded a down-to-earth charm that made me feel at home in their presence.The evening flowed smoothly as guests arrived, filling the space with chatter and joy. We gathered around the dining table, where a feast awaited us. Every dish served was a work of art, bursting with flavour that delighted the senses. From the appetizers to the main course and desserts, each bite was a culinary delight, showcasing the skill of the chef and the essence of fine dining.As we chatted and laughed, time flew by like it always does when you're having fun. Before I knew it, the evening came to an end, and guests began saying their goodbyes, expressing gratitude as they left. As the dinner wrapped up, Zoe and I headed to the club.

Professor Trouble
I ran into the washroom, my heart racing at an uncountable speed, I feared it would leap out at any given moment. Closing the door of stall behind me, I leaned against the cool surface, trying to catch up to the millions of thoughts running through my head. “What on earth was that!” I screamed into the empty space, my voice echoing off the tiled walls as I struggled to process what had happened in the past few minutes. Did it really just happen, or was it just another one of those dreams? Did Izan really just do that? Confusion clouded my mind, making it impossible to understand or comprehend what is reality and what felt like a surreal dream. The whole situation felt like a blur, making me dizzy, leaving me gasping for a sense of stability. But whatever it was, reality or a dream, I couldn’t hide in there for long. I needed to leave, right at that moment, or else being stuck in that space with those thoughts would drive me to the brinks of insanity. Hurriedly, I said my farewells a
