Arohi thrived in darkness-sharp, untethered, unwilling to surrender her heart. A PhD scholar who played by her own rules, love was nothing more than a fleeting indulgence. Tathagata carried his past like a ghost-brilliant, brooding, and bound to silence. A history professor with ink-stained fingers, a cigarette between them, and a sitar that sang only to the solitude. She never expected to see him again-the man she once adored, now a stranger wrapped in mystery. Their reunion is electric, a pull neither of them can deny. But he carries baggage, shadows of a life she never knew. And Arohi? She isn't the same girl who once adored him from afar. As passion collides with the ghosts of their past, they must ask themselves: Is this fate giving them a second chance, or are they simply chasing a memory that no longer exists? A story of love, loss, and the choices that define us-will they rewrite their ending, or are they doomed to repeat it? -------- Mature Content Warning: Intended for mature audiences.

"Falling for the most ruthless mafia in the city? It isn't like those Wattpad romances you scroll through at midnight. Before you even wake from that sweet delusion, your life will be shattered, destroyed, undone." ACP Tara Ahuja has spent her career chasing a truth buried with her parents. Names, files, silences. Justice, if it still exists. Abhiraj Chowdhury lives inside that chaos. He runs a city without asking for permission, bound by rules he inherited. He believes in control. In loyalty measured by silence. In violence executed like habit, not rage. Three shots. Always three. Enough to end a life without wasting time. Their connection is forbidden, a mistake she can't undo. Truth surfaces in fragments. Loyalties fracture quietly. And attraction arrives where it should not, between interrogations, gunmetal silences, and conversations that feel too honest to be safe. Loving him could cost Tara her badge, her past, and her dead parents' memory. Loving her could cost Abhiraj his empire, his men, and the one rule he swore never to break. This is not a story about redemption. It is about what people choose to protect when everything begins to rot.

Mia has always followed her instincts. But one reckless choice, a night with a Gigolo-sets her life spinning out of control. What begins as a secret indulgence becomes a dangerous dance of longing, temptation, and revelation of secrets that wrenched her stomach. In the dazzling, deceptive world of art, Mia crosses paths with Malvika Menon, a celebrated painter haunted by her own quiet regrets. And between them stands a man who has survived hunger, loss, and the ache of reinvention-an artist who paints not just on canvas, but on hearts he cannot keep. As passion intertwines with guilt, and attraction collides with conscience, Mia must navigate moral ambiguity, unspoken truths, and the price of her choices. Some lessons can only be learned in the fire of temptation; some loves, once kindled, refuse to be contained. •••••••••• "Love, they say, redeems. But for me, it was never redemption.

Superstar Ranvijay Mehra, aka Ronny, is about to marry Kaya Kapoor-his longtime girlfriend, co-star, and the industry's golden girl. The only problem? They stopped loving each other a year ago. The media is obsessed, the fans ecstatic, and the wedding promises to be the grandest spectacle Bollywood has ever seen. Enter Radhika-quiet, sharp, and fiercely independent. A senior assistant at a wedding planner team, with no time for fame or falsehood, and the only rule of her family being: stay away from the film industry. She's here to do her job, nothing more. Except, she had been his crazy, stupid fan till her college. But one look at Ranvijay, unguarded and vulnerable, and everything shifts. He's not just the man on the billboards. He's intense, vulnerable, and hiding heartbreak behind that practiced smile. The forbidden attraction blooms by Sicily's Mediterranean breeze. Kaya knows. But she isn't just a celebrity bride, she's much more, holding pawns that would flip the chessboard. But when Mrinalini Mehra, Ranvijay's mother, enters the arena, the truth turns sharper.
