Arnav rejected her love for the sake of friendship... But when her groom disappears on the wedding day, fate binds them together in a marriage, neither of them expected.

(IPKKND AU) In love with his brother-in-law's mistress, Arnav Singh Raizada is torn between his duties as a brother and his feelings for a woman who could destroy everything he loves. After giving his wife a final chance to explain herself at the airport, he left for London to spend some time away from her. But, even oceans apart, Khushi is a constant presence in his life. Meanwhile, Khushi pines for her husband in India, fearing that he'll never believe the truth - she was tricked into an engagement with a married man, and broke it off the instant she found out he was married to Arnav's sister. Broken by his abrupt departure, she's sent to London by his family in an attempt to cheer her up. Arnav's rage has gotten between them countless times in the past. Will they be able to work out the misunderstandings between them and start again?

A story based on the characters of Indian TV series Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? Not related to the series, so can be read as an independent story too. Arnav and Lavanya are engaged to be married, but when Lavanya elopes, all hell breaks loose, and Khushi, her best friend, has to pay the price. Khushi is harboring a secret from the Raizadas, and when she enters the Raizada household, she struggles with her conscience, since she really likes the family. Arnav wants to find out Khushi's secrets, while trying to keep his distance from her. A light-hearted, sweet tale about the journey two strangers take to get to their very own romantic end.

A series of 21 one-shots (or moments), which span just under four months and show how Arnav and Khushi came to be in a secret relationship. This is the second in a four-part series set in the Secret Romance AU. I highly recommend reading Happy New Year (Secret Romance #1) for context. --------- Hi! This story was previously plagiarized and uploaded by another user under the name OUR MOMENTS. This story, and the rest of this series, belong to me. I'm uploading the entire Secret Romance series here so people can still read it. Moments was first shared on fanfiction.net

World weary and cynical, Arnav Singh Raizada falls for a slip of a girl his sister challenges him to seduce. It's a different matter altogether that when he breaks her heart, he breaks his own and years later, she seems to have moved on while he is still a fool who has loved her for far too long... ................................................................. "You need me to call you bhaiya?" She taunts. "I don't know a man who likes hearing "Bhaiya" from random females." "You would be correct," He agrees grudgingly. "And Arnav Ji is too old fashioned and Bollywood for me. It's not as if I am gonna see you after this wedding wraps up. I have no plans of subjecting myself to pointless human interactions and connections with Payal's in laws and her family." She fidgets a little, extending first one leg and then the other to rest it against the floor. Her skirt rides up a little while she is making herself comfortable and he is treated to the sight of her pale, delicate ankles. "Ouch! And here I thought we might be bonding over your juvenile antics and a love story I can't wait to hear." His eyes are still on her ankles and he feels like a perv as he continues staring. She has painted her toes black. Arnav needs to look away if he doesn't want to sport half a boner because a barely adult chit flashed him her ankles.

Our beloved show, has left us with many unanswered questions. What if the character had acted on its impulse and took the right path? What was the Catalyst??

In spite of being an ardent follower of IPKKND, I know the show has serious social issues which were conveniently ignored in the name of artistic expression. This is my may of removing those stigmas. The characters and story of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon is not owned by me and all the credits for them goes to the original creators of the show, including the images used.

A different take on IPKKND's story starting from Arnav's kidnapping fiasco. Was the kidnapping really to hurt Arnav or was it to scare Khushi? Who was the real thorn, Khushi or Arnav? Who will really suffer Arnav or Khushi?

Kushi never believed in men. Not after her father abandoned her mother for wealth. Not after her sister was betrayed and left shattered. Love to her was nothing but ruin. when she is taken under the protection of the powerful Saeeda Singh Raizada, Kushi finds independence in her talent- but also attracts the resentment of Saeeda's son, Arnav Singh Raizada. Cold, ruthless and emotionally scarred, Arnav has built an empire...and a fortress no one is allowed to enter. No one except her. What begins as hostility turns into obsession when Kushi's indifference challenges the only man who has never been denied. He makes her his captive- but never breaks her. Instead, beneath his dominance lies a fierce protectiveness and love he doesn't know how to name. In a battle between fear and desire, will Kushi escape the man who imprisoned her...or surrender to the one who is willing to destroy the world to protect her?

He had been powerful, admired and untouchable since their college days- everything she distrusted. While others chased his attention, she chose distance, refusing to bow to his arrogance or charm. Years later, fate traps her under his authority, where avoidance is no longer possible and his long-suppressed obsession tightened its grip. Beneath the control and intensity lies a man shaped by impossible expectations and a love that was never taught how to be gentle. As truths surface and wounds are laid bare, she must decide whether the devotion that once terrified her can become the love that finally heals them both. Years passed. His wanting did not. Some hearts are not broken. They are trained!
