SMILE WITH SCARS

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

He was the kind of silence that echoed long after he left. She was the kind of storm that walked in, smiling, like she owned the moment ☆Azlan☆ 〰️ the introvert who hid behind books, low glances, and unfinished sentences ☆Zahra ☆〰️ the girl who talked with her eyes, laughed in loud colors, and smiled even when it hurt. They weren't meant to collide. But fate doesn't ask for permission 〰️ it just lets hearts fall quietly. He noticed her when no one else did. She saw him when he couldn't even look at himself. Between missed eye contact, stolen glances, and unsaid words... something began. He was silence. She was storms. He was fear. She was feeling. He stayed distant. She stayed soft. And still... they pulled toward each other. This is not a love story. This is almost one - The kind that stays in heartbeats, in regrets

Character aesthetics

Zahra – The Sunshine with a Camera


Age: 17

College Field:FA (Fine Arts, Education)

Zahra is the girl who wants to live every moment to the fullest. She’s always experimenting—one week she’s painting, next week she’s into photography, then suddenly she’s trying a new hobby again. She’s an extrovert who talks to everyone, laughs loudly, and lives with full energy. She doesn’t care about being a topper; she just wants to enjoy college life. Her notes? Usually borrowed. Her attendance? Questionable. But her memories? Always the most colorful.

Study vibe:Carefree, creative, barely focused—but surprisingly good at presentations.

Nishaal – The Quiet Chaos


Age: 17

College Field*FA (Psychology, Sociology)

Introverted, calm, and emotionally intelligent—Nishaal is the silent observer of the group. She likes soft colors, calm places, and deep talks. She’s the kind who sits with a book in her hand while others are gossiping. She’s genuinely interested in psychology and human behavior, and her notes are always perfect. Teachers admire her for her discipline and gentle behavior. She doesn’t talk much, but when she does, everyone listens.

Study vibe:Focused, thoughtful, and quietly brilliant. Always prepared, never loud about it.



Azir – The Charm with a Plan


Age: 18

College Field ICom (Commerce)

Azir walks into college like he owns the place. He’s charming, sarcastic, and always stylish—usually found near his car or at the back benches. He loves driving, music, and chilling with friends. He acts like he doesn’t care, but he’s actually pretty smart—especially in business and accounting subjects. He studies last minute and still manages to pass with decent grades.

Study vibe: Overconfident but capable. Studies only when needed. Talks more than he writes.

Azlan – The Storm in Stillness


Age: 18

College Field:FA (Civics, Education)

Azlan is serious, disciplined, and a little mysterious. He prefers silence over noise, books over people, and horse riding over city life. He’s respectful in class, focused in studies, and rarely talks unless it’s necessary. While others joke around, he listens carefully. His presence is strong, even in silence. Most people are either intimidated by him or secretly admire him.

Study vibe* Serious, focused, and responsible. Always on time. Always prepared.

Deb: First of all, I’ve read this book several times and have enjoyed each and every time. Second of all, is there anyway that you could write more books containing these characters or even a spinoff with some of the fae, vampires or even witches?

mysecrets: Very hot and steamy. Logan is very possessive and it’s a little to much his character and controlling of Rhea. The author wrote it beautifully. Definitely recommend if you’re into controlling men lol.
