| 𝔉𝔢𝔞𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔢𝔡 x 3 | Book 1 in the FORTRESS series Spirits. Ghosts. Apparitions. Rudra Sharma doesn't believe in any of it. He has always been a Science buff. Majoring in Physics, hoping to become an IAS officer one day and solve the practical problems of the citizens, he is one of the last people to believe in anything paranormal, supernatural, or spooky. The only horror in his life stems from a bunch of strange nightmares he has of a warrior wielding a sword and riding a horse in the middle of an ancient fort. But those are only a bunch of random dreams. Nothing too serious for him to ponder over. He and his friends are optimistic about the absence of ghosts or spirits in their world. Hence, planning to spend a night at one of the most haunted places in India is nothing but an adventure for their young hearts. But when they reach the deserted town and visit the infamous fortress of Bhangarh, they are indeed forced to admit that there are... no ghosts. Lol! However, not everything is what it seems. People around Rudra seem to have secrets. His girlfriend does. His family does. His mother does. As one by one he and his friends begin experiencing the presence of the paranormal, a gruesome truth is revealed, tying his entire existence with the haunted fortress of Bhangarh. Not to forget, all of them have their lives hanging in the balance because an evil spirit has hitchhiked with them and is now roaming free, casting its menacing shadow, and biding its time to unleash hell.

"I don't love you," I declare. He smiled at me, though his expression was tinged with pain, tears pooling in the depths of his eyes. "I knew it, you still love me so much."

"Say it, just once, that you love me, my Sweetheart. Just once, please," he pleaded. I finally surrendered, tears misting my own eyes as all rational thoughts scattered, "I love you. I never stopped loving you." "And I love you infinitely more," he declared, leaning closer towards my lips. I placed a trembling hand over his mouth, halting him in his tracks, and shook my head slowly. "We can't. It's wrong.
