No one could ever take that from me. No amount of pulling and tugging had done that. Even in the depths of despair I had held on to it like a last cloth. I had dedicated my life to dharma. Dharma and Draupadi would be forever synonymous. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The daughter of Draupad, The wife of the Pandavas, The sakhi of Shri Krishna , The emperess of Indhraprastha , The queen of Mahabharatha

"I thought you hated hugs" , I voiced out as he wrapped his arms ever so gently around me.

One wrong number. One voice. And suddenly, the man who had never believed in love found himself waiting for midnight-just to hear her breathe. He had no right to feel this, yet every word, every pause pulled him closer to the place he swore he would never go. Shivansh Desai. CEO. Stoic. Disciplined. Detached. A man of ice, armor, and silence-until her laughter melted everything he thought unshakable. Prisha Sharma. Sunshine wrapped in calm defiance. She never chased him. She never needed him. And yet, by some cruel twist of fate, she became the only place where his restless mind could rest. They never planned it. Never labeled it. But in the stolen hours of midnight calls, they became each other's secret. And then... she left. No warning. No goodbye. Just absence. He shattered quietly, hiding the cracks behind power and control. Years passed, empires rose, but nothing filled the hollow she left. Until fate returned her. Same face. Same voice. Different world. Her eyes carried guilt, her lips trembled with unspoken longing. And deep inside, she admitted- "I left... but my heart never stopped following you." He felt it too-the pull, the ache, the fury. "You vanished like I was nothing. I should hate you... but how do I stop craving the very thing that ruined me?" Two hearts, scarred by silence, bound by a love that never died. Maybe this time, love would be enough. Maybe fate would finally keep what it once stole.

For her, it was never about love. For him, it was always about her. They were frenemies, they were companions-guiding, challenging, and saving each other in ways neither of them expected. In a world where emotions collide with obligations, can anyone truly escape the ache of love? Or are some bonds meant to break the rules?

Or has the fire they thought they'd put out already turned into flames they can't control? Will they hold on to what they've built, or let it all turn to ash?

Villainess's Vengeance ~ A Rebirth Story previously known as Left at the Altar ~ Rebirth of the Villainess. *** "Vi... Viaan, please don't do this.. don't leave me, please come back. It's our wedding day. Plea...please I'm begging you." "Do not ever call me again, Ira. It's over between us." The line went dead. That was all it took for him to left me at the Altar for her. *** ~ A REBIRTH STORY From childhood, Ira Veyansh was always compared to Niya Kapadia. Niya ~ the maid's daughter who could do everything better. Studies, sports, looks, manners, obedience, everything. Everyone loved Niya. Ira parents, her brothers, even the family celebrated her like she was one of their own. Birthdays, dinners, small achievements... the praise always went to Niya. "Ira, you should be more like Niya." "I wish Niya was my sister." "Take a lesson from Niya." Day by day, Ira felt invisible. Starved for love and attention, she did things she shouldn't have, hurt Niya, humiliated her, even darker. But nothing worked. Then came Viaan. Her childhood love. The one she thought would finally make her happy. But he chose Niya too. The pain and humiliation were too much for her to handle. That night, walking alone in the rain after being abandoned at her own wedding, Ira was hit by a truck. A brutal accident that ended her life. But life gave her a second chance. A rebirth. She remembered everything. Every insult. Every betrayal. Every heartbreak. And somewhere in that second life... there is this man. Reevan. A man she was never meant to cross paths with. Forbidden. Yet somehow... tied to her fate. Now, the question is, will she let fate repeat itself, or will she change her story?
