She was never the random piece. An investigation. A powerful family. A game already in motion. Armand thought he was chasing the truth. But in a world of secrets, power, and manipulation... he was never the player. He was a piece. Tropes: Slow burn | Morally grey characters | Hidden identity | Mind games | Power couple | Forced proximity | Betrayal | Revenge | Chess & strategy |

Cleo Anderson would rather jump off a cliff than ever have anything to do with her ex-best friend, Aster Blackwood. But after a trap set by her mother and his, Cleo finds herself once again in the house of her worst enemy. Instead of the confrontation she expects, Cleo is met with his death-and the weight of every word left unsaid. Granted a second chance by Death itself, Cleo must save the boy she once knew from a path of destruction, all while slowly dying herself. With her sacrifice already set in stone, can Cleo find a way to truly live beyond herself-and beyond her own flaws?

Krishna hides her past. Ardhy Chaudhary already knows it. He didn't fall for her. He studied her. She was careful. He was certain. Krishna never believed in destiny- Until he started calling her his. And in a game built on lies... She might be his only truth.

A Romantic-Thriller | Suitable for: 16+ This story begins where another ends-with a death. Love doesn't bloom here in innocence; it ignites in the ashes of loss. Virat Singh Bedi, Ritu Singhania, and Heer Singhania are caught in a web of fate so twisted, it refuses to be unraveled. Virat and Ritu were in love, on the brink of becoming one-until tragedy struck. On the night of their engagement, Ritu is ruthlessly murdered. Her killer remains a ghost, but Virat-fierce in love, relentless in revenge-sets his soul ablaze to uncover the truth. In his hunt for vengeance, Virat storms into Heer's life-Ritu's sister-and she becomes collateral in a war she never chose. Their marriage is forced, stitched together by grief and secrets. Yet somehow, love finds a way to creep in. But fate is a cruel mistress-it never lets lovers rest. Not all players are visible. Some puppeteers remain in the shadows, twisting the game moment by moment. In this world of shifting loyalties and deadly truths, the price of love is blood-and survival is never promised. So step into this murderous season of love-where hearts collide, secrets kill, and only the dead stay loyal. Because, in this house full of secrets, everyone is an actor. But only one man is writing the script. And he doesn't believe in happy endings.

"why would you follow a fool, if you could follow a king?"

A collection of my poems... And... Umm... Stuff...

One studio.One board.One office.Two enemies.No Rules. Will they fall for each other or keep hating each other? Will the marry?? Is it forced??

Meet the ones fate never asked permission to bring together. ✨ Nitishra Sharma The eldest Sharma daughter. 17. A fire-hearted commerce student with a soft center she barely knows exists. She walks like she's proving something - maybe to the world, maybe to herself. Love wasn't on her checklist... but life has its own plans. ✨ Krishiv Singhania The quiet storm. 18. A sharp-minded science student who doesn't speak much, but when he does - it echoes. Love stories weren't written for boys like him... until hers walked in uninvited. ✨ Maitrii Singhania Singhania's sunshine wrapped in chaos. She laughs too loud, loves too soon, and argues just to keep Dev talking.he fell first but She fell harder- and kept falling. ✨ Dev Mittal The unreadable boy with jokes in his pocket and walls around his heart. He spoke in shrugs, felt in silences, and loved her without any condition . Maitri was fire. He got too close... and burned. ✨Shivansh Mehra The effortless charmer. Not a topper, but always the talk. A boy with attitude, a smile that pulls hearts in. He thought love was just a game until she became the only rule he wanted to follow. ✨ Khushi Raghuvanshi The silent brilliance. An 11th-grade commerce prodigy who plays life like chess every move, calculated. Every dream, deliberate. Topper by mind, champion by will. Love isn't her priority not yet. She believes feelings can wait, but success can't. For now, her heart beats for her goals, not for a boy. --six hearts. Three stories. One fate that didn't knock before entering.
