~ 𝙰 𝙳𝙰𝚁𝙺 𝙸𝙽𝙳𝙸𝙰𝙽 𝚁𝙾𝙼𝙰𝙽𝙲𝙴 ~ ☠ ☠ ~~ 18+~~ A 21 year old Akansha never thought one reckless night of passion would turn her world upside down. It was supposed to be a mistake-one she could forget, one that held no meaning beyond those stolen hours. But how do you forget a man like Shreyansh Malhotra? He wasn't just any man. He was the Shreyansh Malhotra -CEO of Cerebrix Tech, the youngest billionaire in the industry, and a man so dangerously powerful that the world practically bowed at his feet. He is ruthless, dominant, and exudes an authority that makes people tremble. But that night, in the dim glow of the club, he wasn't the untouchable CEO. He was raw, demanding, and utterly charming. She had walked away the next morning, convinced that was the end of it. After all, why would a man like him care about a stranger? But Akansha had underestimated just how possessive Shreyansh could be. Their paths crossed again when she became an intern in his company, unaware of the storm waiting for her. Now, every time she entered the office, she felt his intense gaze burning into her. Every interaction was laced with an unspoken warning- 𝖘𝖍𝖊 𝖜𝖆𝖘 𝖍𝖎𝖘 She had been foolish to think she could escape him. Because Shreyansh Malhotra never let go of what was his. And Akansha? She had unknowingly become his new obsession. ❦ †he †ale of ℒove and ⊙bsession ⚠️Read the warning and the disclaimer before beginning.

Winner of 'Wattpad India Awards 2019' in Both Popular Choice and Judge's Choice Categories. Note posted on 5 October 2022 'Prithvi' is an ongoing story. It was in 2008 that the story began to flow through me. I continue to be as passionate about it as I was back then. However, I do not know how long it would take to be completed. I do not know how many more volumes or chapters will be required. I update chapters only once a month, and even that doesn't happen at times. But if you would still like to experience this story, please go ahead and give it a try. I hope you enjoy it reading 'Prithvi' as much as I enjoy writing it. ***************************** Story Description "Prithvi" is the tale of an incredibly intense love that demands nothing less than unconditional surrender. But it has to manoeuvre its way through a labyrinth of long-buried secrets, vicious enemies, shattered blood ties, and most painfully, untamed inner demons. Everlasting happiness may be within reach, or perhaps, very far away. Never before has the path of love been so dangerous....so mysterious.....so beautiful...

(Book 2 of the Mafia standalone series) "Matteo-" The word dies in my throat as he reaches across the console, one arm wrapping around my waist, and before I can process what's happening, he lifts me effortlessly and pulls me onto his lap. My breath catches and I stare at him, stunned. His face is inches from mine. Close enough that I can see the faint scar near his eyebrow. Close enough to feel the heat of him through the thin fabric of his shirt. "Matteo-" I start again, but it comes out softer this time. He kisses me. It's not gentle, it's not hesitant.... it's desperate. I freeze for half a second, my mind blanking completely and then something inside me snaps. I kiss him back harder, aggressive in a way that surprises even me. His lips are rough on mine, aggressive and insistent. He kisses me like he's starving for it. My hands fist in his shirt, anchoring myself to him as he devours my mouth. His tongue slides against mine and I moan into him. The sound is swallowed by his kiss, muffled by his lips.

**PREVIEW ONLY** Dr. Indiana "Indie" Miller never believed in fairy tales. How could she? Everything she ever accomplished was paid for in blood, sweat, and will. Emancipated at sixteen, she put herself through medical school while juggling three jobs, and built a life around one simple truth - that no one was coming to save her. Then her favorite patient introduces Indie to her grandson. And Teddy Williams is everything Indie never dared to dream of. Kind, steadfast, and completely devoted to her. He's the kind of man who notices the little things and looks at her like she's the only woman in the world. There's only one problem. Teddy's overbearing mother hates her. Thankfully, Nana Ellie is there to shield Indie from the worst of it, and despite the tension, Teddy and Indie fall deeper and deeper in love. Two years later, they're on the verge of forever and preparing to move to New Jersey for Indie's dream job at Bluewater Cancer Center. But when Nana Ellie dies, the woman who loved Indie like family is gone. Teddy's mother, Dawn, has spent his entire life making herself the center of it, and she has no intention of letting Indie take her place. Every mispronounced name, every crossed boundary, every cruel little comment is designed to prove one thing - Indie does not belong with him. As the pressure builds and the disrespect becomes impossible to ignore, Teddy finds himself caught between the family he was raised to put first and the woman he loves more than anything. He chooses wrong. And he loses Indie. Without her, Teddy is forced to face the truth of his choices. That his mother's love was never love at all, it was guilt, control, and enmeshment. And if he wants any chance of winning Indie back, he'll have to do more than apologize - he'll have to become the man she deserved all along. Because Indie Miller is done waiting for a fairy tale. This time, she's going to make one for herself.

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.

"I'm not a man of many words... солнышко," he said softly, the Russian endearment curling off his tongue like smoke-sweet, but choking. "Come closer." She hesitated, her body trembling, tears spilling soundlessly down her cheeks. He watched her, the way fear made her small, fragile-beautiful in a broken way. She rose, slow as a confession, and walked to him because something in his smile promised shelter and tasted like a lie. He leaned in, close enough to feel his breath, and I saw the patient cruelty behind his eyes. "Now," he murmured, his voice turning colder, heavier, "tell me... what did you do to make me want to cut your leg?" The room went still, except for her quiet gasps. He tilted his head, studying her face as if searching for the moment she would break. ...............................................................
