✨Know your Author✨

"Hey there, fellow Historical Fiction Lovers! I'm Devi, your friendly neighborhood amateur writer with a knack for spinning tales that make you laugh, cry, and maybe even send you into a mild condition of existential crisis!

About me? Ah! I eat fluffy historical romances for breakfast, lunch and dinner and do Chai ke nashe ✨🤍✨

Now, coming back to the story, let me introduce you to our leading lady, Kumud. She's got vengeance on her mind and a fire in her soul that'll leave even the most battle-hardened warriors quaking in their dhotis.

 And then there's our dashing hero, Vyom – a man so smitten, he'd follow Kumud into battle just to catch a glimpse of that fiery glare of hers. But hey, who can blame him? Even the gods would blush in her presence!

And speaking of blushing, let's not forget our cheating duo, Abeera and Devendra. Oh, they thought they could outsmart fate and get away with their shenanigans, but little did they know, Kumud's got a bone to pick and she's not afraid to use her wit – or her sword – to settle the score.

So, buckle up, my dear readers, because this rollercoaster ride through ancient India is about to get wilder than a Bollywood dance number. Get ready to laugh, gasp, and maybe even shed a tear or two – because with 'Lotus Among Roses,' anything is possible, and no one – not even destiny – can stand in the way of true love and a well-deserved dose of karma!

So, Lets meet our main characters, Shall We!

Kumud (formerly Padmini):

Kumud is the protagonist of the story, whose soul has been reincarnated into the body of Kumud, a noblewoman in the Rashtrakuta Empire of ancient India. 

Previously known as Padmini, she was a woman wronged in her past life and is now driven by a fierce desire for vengeance against those who betrayed her. With a tenacious spirit and unwavering determination, Kumud navigates the complexities of her new life while seeking justice for the injustices of her past.

                                         PADMINI

  

Kumud

I'll marry her, if Vyom gets killed by any chance ✨✨

Vyom:

Vyom is the male lead of the story, a charismatic and enigmatic figure whose path crosses with Kumud's in unexpected ways. He is a highly skilled warrior and scholar, renowned for his achievements on the battlefield and in the realm of academia. 

Despite his arrogance, Vyom possesses a magnetic charm that draws others to him, and his sharp wit and cunning intellect make him a formidable adversary—or ally.

Devendra: Devendra is Kumud's former husband from her past life as Padmini. He is a military commander in the Rashtrakuta Empire, known for his bravery and strategic acumen on the battlefield. 

Devendra is torn between his loyalty to his family and his own desires, leading him down a path of betrayal and deceit. He is haunted by his past actions and the consequences they have wrought.

 Honestly, He's just trashy! 

Abeera: Abeera is a cunning and manipulative woman who played a role in the betrayal of Padmini in her past life. She is determined to maintain her hold on power and will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. 

Abeera is shrewd, calculating, and adept at playing the political game. Despite her outward charm, she is ruthless and willing to sacrifice anyone who stands in her way.

Abeera is really pretty! I would've loved her if only she was not a psycho!

Now! Let's travel to the Empire in which this story is set in!
