Bound series #2 A marriage of convenience | cold hearted | shattered soul | abandoned baby | orphan girl Single father × mute girl

He was the professor no one could ignore. She was the girl everyone overlooked. Professor Abhimanyu, 32, wasn't just another name on the faculty list...he was a presence. Known for his sharp mind, unmatched work ethic, and an aura of quiet authority, he taught Architectural Design like it was more than a subject... like it was a language of the soul. But he wasn't easy to keep. In just two years, he had already left two prestigious universities...never for better offers, but for something far more rare: his self-respect. He refused to compromise his dignity, no matter the cost. Then came Amrita. A final-year student. Always present, yet invisible. Always silent, yet full of unspoken thoughts. She wasn't the girl people noticed..she was the one they laughed at. The one who tried to fit in but somehow became the punchline instead. Shy. Introverted. "Boring," they called her. But they never really saw her. Because beneath that quiet exterior lived a mind that felt deeply, imagined endlessly, and observed everything. And yes... She had a crush on him. Just like many others. But unlike them, hers wasn't shallow admiration. It was something softer. Something deeper. She didn't just notice his looks, she noticed the way he spoke about design, the way he stood by his principles, the way he never pretended to be someone he wasn't. And maybe... he noticed something too. Not the loudest voice in class. Not the brightest attention-seeker. But the girl who stayed back, whose designs carried emotions no one else could draw, whose silence spoke louder than words. What happens when a man who values dignity above everything meets a girl who has never been valued at all? When admiration turns into understanding... When silence turns into connection... When two completely different worlds begin to align.. A story begins. Not loud. Not rushed. Not perfect. But real. Ranks - No.1 in Slowburn (24 feb 2025)

In a conservative South Indian college, a 27-year-old lecturer and a 19-year-old student from a traditional family navigate a forbidden love. Their journey is filled with romance, jealousy, passion, and anger as they battle societal norms and their own emotions, leading to moments of intense connection and heart-wrenching conflicts. Their eyes met, and the world around them seemed to fade. For a moment, it was just the two of them, the music, and the unspoken connection between them. "Sir, this is..." she began, but he cut her off. "Arjun," he said softly. "Just Arjun tonight." Her lips parted in surprise, but she nodded. "Okay... Arjun. "You look beautiful tonight," he murmured, his voice so soft she almost didn't hear him. Her breath hitched, and she felt her cheeks grow warm. "Thank you... Arjun." He smiled at her use of his name, and for a moment, they forgot about their surroundings. As the song ended, there was a brief shuffle on the dance floor as students moved around. In the commotion, someone bumped into Ananya, causing her to lose her balance. Arjun instinctively reached out to steady her, pulling her close. The sudden movement brought their faces mere inches apart. Before either of them could process what was happening, their lips brushed in a fleeting, accidental kiss. Time seemed to freeze. Ananya's eyes widened in shock, while Arjun's grip on her waist tightened slightly before he quickly stepped back. "I... I didn't mean to-" he began, his voice filled with panic. "It's okay," she interrupted, her face flushed with embarrassment and something she couldn't quite name. They glanced around, relieved to see that no one had noticed the incident. "Maybe we should... step outside for some fresh air," Arjun suggested, his composure barely intact. Ananya nodded, following him out to the garden area, where the cool night air helped calm their racing hearts. ---------------------------------------------------

As I took a seat beside her, I realised that she was awfully quiet. "Is everything fine", I asked her. Naina licked her lips and looked at me. For a few seconds none of us said anything and then finally she said- "Aakash, my family has a second-hand car. I have been earning for quite sometime now but my savings aren't enough for even a bike. We live in a small apartment, which you have seen already, throughout my life I have shared everything...my books, clothes, shoes, cosmetics, even my laptop with my elder sister." I did not understand why Naina was saying all this with a sad expression. To me, everything that concerns her always feels happy and worth being proud of. She continued- "What I am saying Aakash, is that I am nowhere worthy, capable, or even habituated of a life where my husband owns a house with an elevator or where he wishes to buy me a helicopter. We are so different, Aakash. This scares me a lot". Not even for a moment have I ever felt that Naina would be insecure of my living standards. But, I understood where she was coming from. "Naina", I replied, "All this extravagant decorations, this lavish home, my expensive lifestyle,none of this means anything to me. It is a facade I have to maintain for the world. YOU ARE MY HOME". *** Here's the story of Naina Khanna and Aakash Arora. Two people who are from completely different backgrounds, however destiny brings them together and their souls connect.
