(Look for Brazen Stars on my profile; It's the same story's newer version (currently updating). This one is not going to be updated) Royal Romance Samira Rawat was an older daughter, focusing all her life on making the most money to sustain her family. Coming from a humble background, she knew the bad days and she had promised her sister the best days. At age 24, when her parents asked her plans to get married, she left the decision in their hands. Love is a luxury she could never afford despite having become a millionaire herself. Atharv Rathore had to become king, following his father's steps. He had already conquered the business world in India, claiming the top stop, and now he had to claim the throne, and the only thing standing in his way was marriage. So when his mother gives him a chance, he lets her lead just this once. Love is not on the list when you plan to be king. When these two loveless folks get stuck in the confusing world of love and marriage, they have to figure out how to make it work and find happiness for both of them.

A perfectionist wrapped in quiet intensity, he's a man who believes in soulmates, in signs, in love written in the stars. But in a world that demands everything from him, love always came second. 𝐉𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐀 𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐇, a 28-year-old entrepreneur, is fire wrapped in grace. After a heartbreak that carved scars deeper than she admits, she chooses ambition over affection, peace over passion. Her days are built on routines, responsibilities, and the quiet hope that maybe - just maybe - the universe still has something extraordinary in store. Their worlds collide at an airport in Paris - brief, accidental, unforgettable. A lost jhumka. A haunting scent of jasmine. And the sound of bells. What begins as a chance encounter blooms into something neither of them expected - a love story written across continents, stitched with longing, fate, and the kind of slow-burning tenderness that changes everything. ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ᴀ ꜱᴛᴏʀʏ ᴏꜰ ꜱᴇʀᴇɴᴅɪᴘɪᴛʏ, ꜱᴏᴜʟꜰᴜʟ ᴄᴏɴɴᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ, ᴀɴᴅ ʟᴏᴠᴇ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴄʜᴏᴏꜱᴇꜱ - ᴀɢᴀɪɴ ᴀɴᴅ ᴀɢᴀɪɴ.

~ A L L E S A N D R O B L A C K W E L L ~ The silken torment of her hair, the phantom ghost of her scent, the lethal curve of her lips-I am haunted by the softness of her skin and the melody of a voice that could summon devils. She possesses a mouth as sharp as a blade, a tongue that cuts deep, but it is those eyes... those endless, abyssal black orbs that stare back at me, daring me to break. Her confidence is a collar around my throat, tightening until the air turns thin. It brings me to my knees, a king desperate to kneel, trembling with the need to surrender my very soul at her altar. She is whiskey in a porcelain teacup fragile, deceptive, and burning with a fire that threatens to consume me whole. And I am the addict, parched and trembling, dying for a single taste of that ruin, desperate to drain the cup. She was never merely a part of my world. She is the axis on which my world turns. She is my world. ~ K A L Y A N I D E S H M U K H ~ He was the midnight rain cold, relentless, and washing over everything in his path. He was the exquisite kind of ache, a beautiful sorrow that offered a terrifying, silent peace. A pain that felt like salvation. But I was an intruder in his gilded empire. He was carved from the finest marble of luxury, born into a world of opulence where I had no place to stand. He was the King seated upon a throne of shadows, and I was merely his lawyer nothing more, nothing less. He was the storm that owned the night, and I was the moon that had no choice but to wane, to vanish, and finally, to leave.
