𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 ' 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 In a world that screams, I stand in despair, My voice drowned out, lost in the air. Chains of tradition tighten each day, I long to escape, but I'm forced to stay. Each breath I take feels heavy and torn, Every mistake a scar I've worn. I crave a sky where I can be free, Away from the walls that imprison me. For now, I sit with my heart in pain, Silent, yet screaming, again and again. Though shattered, a spark in me still survives, Dreaming of freedom where my soul can rise.

Two years ago, in a stadium roaring with chants and flashing lights, 𝗞𝗮𝘃𝘆𝗮 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗶 stood up... and booed 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝘁 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗮 after a disastrous spell. Her best friend captured the moment. Posted it on Twitter with a savage caption. It went viral overnight. Memes. Trolls. Edits. The world laughed. But Harshit remembered her face. Now, fate has a twisted sense of humor. Fresh out of college, Kavya lands a job in the PR department of Harshit's IPL team - determined to build a career and bury the most embarrassing moment of her life. She convinces herself he won't remember. At first, he doesn't. Until one heated argument. One accidental slip. And suddenly, the past crashes into the present. "𝘊𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘢𝘯?" he smirks. The teasing starts. Public digs. Private jokes. Relentless banter. But somewhere between sarcastic comments and stolen late-night conversations, the lines begin to blur. The cricket star and his former troll find comfort in each other. Soft confessions replace sharp words. And what started as revenge begins to feel dangerously real. There's just one problem. She isn't only the girl who booed him. She's also his best friend's ex. A truth she's desperately hiding. Because in a world of flashing cameras and fragile reputations, some secrets don't just break hearts - they end careers. And this time, going viral might cost her everything.

An arranged marriage was never part of their plan. Nitish Kumar Reddy lives a fast-paced life filled with cricket, pressure, expectations, and constant public attention. Quiet, reserved, and emotionally guarded, he has no interest in love beyond responsibility. Sameera Reddy is independent, warm, and used to a completely different world of cameras, films, and media scrutiny. Marriage was supposed to be simple for her - not something that would change her entire life. But when their families arrange a match between them, two strangers are suddenly pushed into the same world. What starts with awkward conversations, careful smiles, and uncomfortable silences slowly turns into something softer... something real. Between chaotic family dinners, Telugu traditions, cricket tours, media attention, emotional misunderstandings, balcony conversations, festivals, laughter, and quiet late-night talks, Nitish and Sameera begin building a love story neither of them expected. Not loud. Not perfect. Just honest. A slow-burn arranged marriage romance about finding comfort in the most unexpected person... and turning a house into a home.

"𝐼𝑛 𝑎 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝑓𝑢𝑙𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑜𝑛𝑠, 𝑠ℎ𝑒'𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑢𝑛." 𝘿𝙞𝙮𝙖 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙖 is kind, too kind and strong in the way that makes people forget she bleeds too. Love was never expected, only endurance. So when her father asked her to marry she nodded... not out of hope, but habit. 𝙑𝙚𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙈𝙖𝙡𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙧𝙖, grew up in a home that taught him how to build empires but never taught him how to ask for a hug. Marriage was never part of the plan until a hospital room, a fading pulse, and the one man he could never disappoint whispered a final wish. Neither expected warmth. Neither expected understanding. And they definitely didn't expect comfort in each's other's silence. A tale of quiet yearning- an arranged marriage where silence becomes a language and love sneaks in when no one's looking. - M 💌

Under the roaring lights of the stadium, where every run is counted and every mistake is magnified, love was the last thing on Devdutt Padikkal's mind. A rising star of Royal Challengers Bangalore, Dev knows pressure, discipline, and the weight of expectations. His world revolves around cricket-clean shots, big scores, and proving himself, match after match. But everything changes when Aishwarya Krishnan walks into his life. Confident, composed, and fiercely independent, Aishwarya is the team's manager-the one who holds everything together when chaos threatens to take over. She doesn't get distracted. She doesn't mix emotions with work. Until him. What begins with stolen glances and playful teasing slowly turns into something deeper-something neither of them planned for. Between match-day pressure, dressing room chaos, teasing teammates, and the constant noise of the crowd, their story unfolds in quiet moments- in soft smiles across the stands, in whispered words after victories, in jealousy that burns just a little too real, and in love that grows stronger with every challenge. But love in the spotlight isn't easy. Misunderstandings creep in. Possessiveness tests boundaries. And the fear of losing each other becomes just as real as the fear of losing a match. Yet, through every high and low, one thing remains constant- He plays his best game when she's watching. And she finds her calm in the chaos... when she's with him. Because in a world ruled by scoreboards and expectations- this isn't just a love story. It's a story of choosing each other, again and again... beyond the boundaries.

❝𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐚 & 𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐚 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚❞ I should not feel anything for someone who is my enemy, someone who has caused me so much pain that the very thought of him should fill me with nothing but rage and bitterness. Yet, against all logic, I feel it-I feel the heat rising beneath my skin . The mere idea of his touch sends shivers down my spine, igniting sensations that I desperately want to ignore. This isn't right. I shouldn't crave the presence of someone I despise, but my body betrays me, responding to him in ways that my mind fiercely rejects. He stands so close that his breath fans across my face, warm and intimate, stirring emotions that I refuse to acknowledge. A slight movement is all it would take for our lips to meet, for this unbearable tension to shatter into something far more dangerous. His hands are braced on either side of my head, trapping me, yet he doesn't need to touch me to make me feel trapped. His body hovers just out of reach, yet I can sense him, every inch of him, as if the air itself is an extension of his presence. I shouldn't desire this man. I shouldn't want to close the gap, to feel the press of his body against mine. I should be repulsed, disgusted by how my thoughts betray my hatred. But my body doesn't listen to reason , it yearns for what it shouldn't, driven by instincts I can't control. I despise him-my enemy- My rival-but the line between hatred and desire is blurring, and I'm terrified of which side I might fall on. {𝖠 𝗌𝗍𝖺𝗇𝖽𝖺𝗅𝗈𝗇𝖾 } | | Mature content 18+| |
