She was never loved. Not by the world. Not even by her own father the man who tried to sell her when she was only seven. Growing up unwanted, she stopped asking for fairy tales. She stopped believing in miracles. All she ever wanted was simple to be chosen. To be kept. To be loved just once in her life. So when marriage came, she thought maybe this was it. Maybe this was her escape from a childhood filled with betrayal. Maybe her husband would finally see her worth. But she didn't know the truth. The man she married wasn't looking for love. He was looking for revenge. Haunted by the death of his parents, he vowed to destroy the man responsible. And when fate placed the daughter of his enemy in his hands, he made a promise she would suffer for her father's sins. To her, he was hope. To him, she was punishment. In a marriage built on revenge and innocence, can love survive? Or will hatred burn everything before it even begins?

Swara Roy, a vibrant, carefree girl, never imagined her life would intertwine with her crush Aarav Malhotra, the cold and distant CEO of one of the biggest corporations in the country. When their families arrange marriage between them, it's not just a clash of personalities but a clash of worlds. Aarav's icy exterior though being a gentleman hides a darkness, a past betrayal that makes him hesitant to let anyone into his heart. But Swara, with her warmth and innocence, starts melting the walls he built around himself. Both are forced to confront their fears, desires, and the secrets that bind them. But in a world where business deals are cold and calculated, can love survive? "Do you believe in fate?" he asks. "Not really." She asks taken aback by his question, "Me neither, but now I'm starting to." Her pulse quickens at the irresistible drop in his tone. "Why is that?" He grabs her waist, pulling her towards him as her breath hitched by the proximity and whispers. "I would've found you no matter what, butterfly. It was just a matter of time." @ravvinouzo No translations are allowed.

Until the day she walks into a penthouse lounge in Maitama... and meets Zayd Yusuf Abubakar He smells of oud-rich, warm, and dangerously unforgettable.

But for reasons even he can't explain... he can't look away from the modest event planner who carries herself like she doesn't know her own beauty. Their worlds clash-soft and strong, lavender and oud. She wants simplicity. He lives in luxury. She plans events. He plans empires. Yet destiny weaves their paths together, drawing them into a slow-burning connection neither of them saw coming. In a city where status speaks louder than hearts, can a gentle girl from Gwagwalada and Abuja's quiet billionaire find a love that feels like home?

She was never meant to be his. He never wanted to feel anything. Sarah's world crumbles the moment she's sold off like property - forced into marriage with a man as distant as he is dangerous: Khalifa Modibbo, known for his silence, power, and the darkness behind his eyes. He doesn't smile. He doesn't touch her. He doesn't even pretend to care. But beneath his indifference lies a storm - quiet, controlled, and waiting to break. Their marriage begins in silence, with sharp edges and cold walls. No tenderness. No trust. Just two strangers bound by resentment and pride. But love doesn't always arrive with warmth. Sometimes it creeps in through stolen glances, bitter arguments, and the ache of two broken souls trying not to fall. As old wounds resurface and new trials threaten to tear them apart, Sarah and Khalifa must face the truth: They may have been forced together by fate - but what grows between them could either ruin them... or save them. Because the strongest loves aren't always gentle. Some are woven from pride, pain, and every thread they swore they'd never offer anyone.

Is cheating always meant to be physical? What if he emotionally betrays you? But what do you call it when your husband shares his dreams, emotions, victories, and time with another woman... slowly forgets that you even exist? (Short story)

Sona is scared. No one has ever given her a reason not to be, not that she has ever let anyone in for that. Sona has always carefully planned out her life, fitting every piece of the puzzle called life accurately but that rule is about to be broken. Sona is getting married. To a Stanger. and Sona is scared. Devasya is anxious. No one has ever interfered in his life, not that he has ever given anyone an opportunity to do that. Devasya has created a plan for his upcoming life, he has been working hard for it anxiously for forever now, and just as he was about to pass the threshold of success, someone interfered. Devasya is getting married. To a stranger. and Devasya is mad. Unexpected surprises are the worst surprises. but they are still surprises, and sometimes it's in our hands to make these unexpected surprises, a little bit more surprisingly lovable. Devasya is about to learn that its not always necessary to walk on your path alone, sometimes it's feels good to walk while holding hand of someone. Sona is about to discover that life should not be always planned, sometimes it's nice to go with the flow because that's what life is. Life is an ocean and we all are the swimmers and now it depends upon Devasya and Sona to either cross this ocean together with the flow or go against the flow to change their paths. **** "And how do I check if I am happy or not?" "no one is truly really happy to be honest .everyone has something they always worry about so there is no way to "check" it. All you can do is find those small moments where your heart feels so happy that it feels like it's burning, your eyes shine so bright you forget to blink, or your lips can't help themselves and stretch into a huge smile. you just have to find those moments you know?Life is just a collection of moments making memories, its on you how and when to choose it. you decide how happy are you, no one does it for you." *** Previously titled: The two introverts [Language used: Hindi & English]
