Some debts are paid in money. Others demand pieces of your soul. When Risha Verma's family café is destroyed and her father's life hangs by a thread after a devastating heart condition, desperation corners her into a choice she never imagined making. A single contract. Nine months. One secret that could change everything. The arrangement is simple on paper. Stay silent. Follow the rules. Never get emotionally involved. But behind the polished walls of power and wealth lies a world stitched together with control, buried rage, family wars, and dangerous truths, that refuse to stay hidden. And the deeper Risha sinks into it, the more she realizes that some scars do not heal quietly. They bleed beneath the skin.

°‧🫧⋆.ೃ࿔ 𝙧𝙤𝙢-𝙘𝙤𝙢 *:･⋆˚꩜｡🫧🐋 She only went to a wedding for the food and a quiet escape from family questions. Love was the last thing on her mind, especially not meeting anyone there. But one simple question from an aunty changed everything. In a moment of panic, she pointed at the man sitting beside her, casually eating a gulab jamun, and called him her husband to avoid an awkward situation. What she didn't know was that fate had a twisted sense of humor. That man wasn't a stranger at all... he was the aunty's son. And just like that, a small lie turned into an unexpected mess of chaos, embarrassment, and a connection she never saw coming.

Maa turned to me. "Riya beta, go outside and bring the flowers from the garden. And if you see him, bring him along with you." I nodded, clutching the thali a little tighter, and stepped out toward the garden. He was nowhere in sight. Shrugging it off, I bent down to lift the large basket of flowers placed near the parking area. The tiny blooms felt impossibly heavy. As I struggled, the sharp edge of the basket nicked my wrist - hidden beneath the soft folds of my dupatta. Great. If anyone notices, I'm doomed. Ignoring the sting, I stepped onto the marble path cutting through the grass - and lost my balance. "Whoa-" Before I could fall, strong arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me back. My breath hitched. Time stopped. The world went silent - no birds, no distant traffic, no rustling leaves. There he was. Dhruv Rathore. Standing so close I could feel his warmth, his steady presence grounding me. The boy my heart had never quite let go of - even after four long years - was holding me in his arms. He looked exactly how memory had preserved him. Calm. Composed. Effortlessly commanding. And then reality crashed into me. He's my sister's devar. ✨A slow-burn romance set against the chaos of an Indian wedding, filled with family drama, soft moments, and emotions that refuse to stay hidden. ✨ #1 in rituals🌸✨🎀(3/02/2026) #1 in rituals (12/03/2026) #9 in beautiful ( 27/03/2026) #1 in past love ( 5/04/2026) #2 in beautiful (8/04/2026)

Phase 1 was about stolen glances, soft confessions, heart-fluttering moments, and a love that felt like destiny. But love stories aren't always written in sunshine. Phase 2 of Stumped With You dives into the storm no one saw coming. What happens when the same love that once felt like home starts feeling like a battlefield? When misunderstandings grow louder than confessions? When jealousy burns deeper than trust? This phase is not about cute banters and butterflies anymore. It is about shattered promises, painful silences, ego clashes, and hearts breaking while pretending to stay strong. He loves her. She loves him. But love alone isn't always enough. Between fame, insecurities, possessiveness, and unspoken fears, their story takes a darker turn. Jealousy turns into anger. Anger turns into hatred. And hatred slowly begins to blur into a dangerous, obsessive kind of love. This is where romance becomes intense. Where emotions are raw. Where love is no longer soft... but dark. Will they fight the world again? Or will they end up fighting each other? Because sometimes, the hardest battles aren't on the field... They're in the heart.

Souls who never imagined they would be united one day. Souls who never imagined that one would heal wounds they never caused, gently kissing the scars left behind, while the other would fall harder with every passing moment. Souls who never imagined that one would love quietly and patiently, while the other would finally gather the courage to share the pain they had carried alone. Souls who never imagined that one would fall in love at first sight, while the other would slowly learn how to give their heart again. Souls who never imagined that one would stand against the world and say "you are enough" while the other would love them as naturally as breathing. This is a journey of family, friendships, healing, sacrifice, respect, silent glances, patience, and a love that begins like a spark and grows into something eternal. It is the story of two souls destined to find each other, proving that when love is arranged by the Deity, it can become truly immense when two hearts choose to walk through life together.

Twisted Hearts - a tale of love, fate, and obsession. She's a passionate graphic design student, focused on her dreams. He's a powerful CEO, a man who always gets what he wants. Their worlds were never meant to collide-until fate intervened, pulling them into a connection neither of them saw coming. Just as their hearts begin to intertwine, the past resurfaces-a shadow that refuses to be forgotten. A love long buried, a jealousy that knows no limits, and a deception that threatens to tear them apart. When hearts are twisted by fate and obsession, will love be enough to survive the storm?

Ira Verma never imagined her new job would land her inside the cold, echoing walls of the Rathore estate-a mansion guarded by silence, secrets, and the brooding presence of the man she's been hired to care for. Devraj Singh Rathore, heir to one of the most powerful families in India, is feared by many and understood by none. Bound to a wheelchair after a brutal attack, he shows no emotion, no warmth... and certainly no interest in the woman tending to him. At least, that's what Ira believes. What she doesn't know is that behind his still gaze lies a storm-dark, obsessive, and dangerously fixated on her. He watches when she's not looking, collects pieces of her she never gave, and burns with jealousy every time his younger brother dares to flirt with her. But Ira has a life outside this mansion. A fiancé her family chose. A future she thought she wanted. Devraj is done pretending. And when obsession begins to crack through restraint, Ira must face a chilling truth: You can only run so far... when the one who craves you is already inside your world.
