TIDES OF SERIES #1 (Can also be read as standalone) ✯TIDES OF BELONGING ~ A Highschool Love Story✯ "Sometimes, home isn't a place-it's a person who makes you feel seen." To those who believe in love that arrives softly yet stays forever. ──────•❥─────── ✯VIHAAN PATHAK - the golden boy senior✯ Vihaan was the kind of boy who could make anyone smile-confident, charming, the kind who flirted just to make others feel good. But behind that easy smile was a boy who never truly let anyone in. A born leader, the heartbeat of every crowd, yet lonely when the noise faded. He believed attachments were distractions... until she came along. The quiet girl who preferred shadows over spotlights, books over parties, peace over chaos. The one person who never tried to impress him-just looked right through him. And somehow, that's what made him fall. Harder than he ever thought he could. "Main chahta toh sabse door reh sakta tha... par tumse chah ke bhi nahi." ──────🧸────── ✯ANVI KASHYAP - the quiet storm junior✯ Anvi was not loud-she was midnight rain. Calm. Composed. Beautiful in her silence. To people, she seemed reserved, almost distant. But once you truly knew her, she could talk endlessly, with laughter that warmed even the coldest hearts. A topper, a thinker, a girl who fought for her respect and stood tall for those she loved. She didn't believe in fairytales. She believed in effort, in respect, in understanding. And yet, when she met him, her carefully built walls began to tremble. He was sunlight-steady, blinding, and too warm to resist. She was the storm that taught him how to feel the rain. "Tumhare saath waqt rukta nahi... bas thehra sa lagta hai." ──────•❥────── Vihaan x Anvi - Because sometimes, belonging isn't about finding someone who understands you- It's about finding someone who chooses to stay.

"I didn't fall in love with her... I surrendered. And now, there's no part of me that doesn't belong to her." *°•.˜"*°• 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐡𝐲𝐚•°*"˜.•°*"˜ That wasn't just love. It was power. It was a king claiming his queen-in front of a kingdom that would now dare not question it.

❝𝑾𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒃𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒎𝒚 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒕, 𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒚?❞ _____________________________ Sidharth never wanted this marriage. Trapped by circumstances and haunted by a past he didn't want to face, he told himself it was only a duty. But Noor-silent, simple Noor-was something he couldn't ignore. Her presence stirred something in him, her quietness louder than his own chaos. She never asked for anything, yet she made him face the parts of himself he wanted to forget. And as his walls started to fall, he hated that he wanted her-that he needed the warmth of someone he was never meant to have. As time went on, He began to behave in ways that were antithetical to his initial intentions. He found himself doing everything he had once vowed never to do with his wife. He became the very husband he had despised. He started to crave more, an insatiable desire that gnawed at his soul for her. And then nothing seems to satisfy his aching soul other than his arranged wife's one smile. ●An Indian arranged marriage romance. #Book-1 in #His bride series.
