Widowed at thirty-four, Kabir Rathore is a successful businessman, but a lost man at heart - a single father drowning in guilt, duty, and a past he can't let go of. When his newborn daughter and two-year-old son need stability, his conservative family urges him into an unusual solution: a marriage of convenience. Enter Shruti Roy - twenty-seven, quiet but resilient, reeling from her own heartbreaks, and fiercely protective of her independence. She agrees to the arrangement, not for love, but for the children who steal her heart the moment she steps into Kabir's chaotic world. What begins as a practical decision slowly unfolds into something neither of them expects - laughter in shared silences, sparks under casual touches, and a home built from gentle moments. But ghosts of the past are not easy to bury. When jealousy strikes, old lovers reappear, and trust is tested by twisted intentions, Shruti and Kabir must ask the hardest question of all: Was this just an arrangement? Or the beginning of something real? ✧･ﾟ: ✧･ﾟ: 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀: 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗦𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝗥𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗳𝘁 𝗥𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 STANDALONE.

SECOND PART OF MY SUBCONSCIOUS DESIRE. [Book 2 of 'OUR DESIRE' series. Written by Author Vaarushi] In the Yaduvanshi family, wealth, power, and status were hardly a concern at that time. But love? Mischief? Togetherness?Warmth? Respect? They overflow like a home lit by a thousand gentle lamps. They may not command empires or rule the world yet... but they never fail to hold each other close when the nights turn cold. Let's dive into the Past of Yaduvanshis. The now cold, ruthless, emotionless, rude, stone-hearted family... was once a mess of warmth and madness. A home where laughter spilled louder than wealth, where secrets were shared over late-night chai, Where women of the house were respected, Where everyone loves each other through the pain, Where learning and growing were not equal to insulting, where scoldings were soft, hugs were tight, And every festival felt like the whole universe had gathered under one roof. Before the frost settled in their bones... before the silence replaced their laugh... before the god decided to play with them... Let's dive into the tale where fire meets a wildfire and learn the love language of understanding and calmness. Where ego clashes with ego, until the decision of togetherness overpowers everything. Where past relationships and learning don't matter anymore because the warmth of having someone close fulfils every absence ever in the heart. Let's dive into the childhood of Vidharth Singh Yaduvanshi, and know what he was before the stone and frost. Let's see the arrogance and jealousy of Adheer Singh Yaduvanshi in his toddler version. Let's see the simplicity and calmness of Ashwin Singh Yaduvanshi when he was supposed to cry and cause headaches And lastly, let's witness a baby Karthik, who was the same back then, and now too. Always creating trouble for one or another particular family member. PLEASE READ ATLEAST 5 CHAPTERS BEFORE DECIDING TO BACK OFF!!

"And who the hell are you to tell me that-" But before I could finish, he closed the distance between us in a blink. His breath hit my skin like fire. One hand gripped my jaw, his thumb and fingers squeezing my cheeks as if daring me to speak again. His eyes, dark and unblinking, held something far more terrifying than rage. OBSESSION. He leaned in, whispering at the edge of my neck, his voice a dangerous murmur. "The moment you chose to marry him, you dug your own grave." His grip tightened. "I was trying," he hissed pulling my face closer to him, "I was really trying to be nice to you. But you-" A bitter smirk curved his lips. "You make me a monster every single time."

Prapti was the kind of girl everyone called a "baddie" confident, beautiful, bold, and always surrounded by attention. But behind her perfect image was a girl completely unlucky in love. Every relationship she had ever been in ended with cheating, lies, and heartbreak, until she finally stopped believing in love altogether. Then came Yuvraj. Quiet, nerdy, awkward, and the complete opposite of her world. What Prapti didn't know was that Yuvraj had been her one-sided lover for years, loving her silently from afar without expecting anything in return. Their story began with a fake relationship. Prapti needed a boyfriend to get rid of her toxic ex, and Yuvraj agreed instantly, even knowing his feelings for her were real. At first, everything between them was just an act...fake dates, fake texts, fake smiles for the world. But slowly, things changed. The more time they spent together, the more Prapti realized Yuvraj loved her differently. Gently. Purely. He listened to her, stayed during her worst moments, and cared for her in ways nobody else ever had. For the first time, love felt safe instead of painful. And somewhere between pretending and healing, their fake relationship became real. While teaching Prapti what true love looked like, he was silently fighting the hardest battle of his own life. When she found out, her world shattered. Because the boy she once treated as temporary had become the only person who ever loved her sincerely. Yuvraj showed her that real love is not about grand promises....it's about staying, caring, and loving someone even when life is falling apart.
