Sia Sinha had always lived quietly, gentle, reserved, and unnoticed in any social gathering. Aahanvir Singh Rathore, the heir to the Rathore Empire contrast, was everything she was not: wealthy, proud, and cold, his heart hardened by betrayal years earlier. Though their families were bound by long friendship, Aahanvir had never hidden his disdain for Sia, and she had never expected anything from him. All eyes, instead, were on Pankhuri Singhania, the beautiful, lively youngest and outgoing daughter of the Singhanias. When Aahanvir's marriage was arranged with her, it seemed a perfect match, one that would strengthen both family ties and business empires. But on the day of the wedding, Pankhuri chose love over duty and ran away, leaving behind scandal and broken pride. In that single moment, Sia's life was transformed. To preserve honor, she was thrust into the place Pankhuri abandoned-married to a man who despised her. For Sia, it was the end of her quiet world, For Aahanvir, another cruel twist of fate. Thus their story began.....a marriage forged in resentment, bound by duty, and destined to test both hearts in ways neither imagined.

Once, she was the sunshine of her home. Now, she is the shadow the world fears. Meera Malhotra - twenty-three, billionaire, untouchable, and colder than the ice in her veins. To the world, Nemesis Empire is a faceless phantom. To those who dare whisper in the dark, it is perfection, discipline, and death. What no one knows... is that Nemesis has a Queen. Sharp-eyed, ruthless, and wrapped in secrets, Meera walks with venom at her wrist and claws at her feet. Serviper, her venomous python, hisses only for her. Phoenix, her black panther, kills at her command. And she? She rules an empire built on silence and fear. But every empire has cracks. And when fate drags her back to the country she once swore she'd never call home again, the ghosts of her past are waiting. Brothers who betrayed her. A family that abandoned her. Enemies who never saw her coming. India thinks it knows its kings. But the real storm is a Queen. This is not a love story. This is a story of power, betrayal, and a woman who returned not to beg for acceptance- but to conquer. She was broken once. Never again.

8 years old Aarya was raised in silence, in fear, and in chains. She never knew a life beyond bruises and rules - where food was a privilege, smiles were sins, and love was just a myth. For eight years, she lived under the iron hand of her mother and her cruel boyfriend, taught to be invisible and obedient or be punished. She didn't know family, joy, or even her own worth. Until one day, everything changed. When her abusers were arrested in a drug bust, Aarya thought she was finally free. But freedom was a lie. Because this time she is captured by a monster even more dangerous, a ghost from the underworld, long thought dead. Where she learns a truth more unbelievable than fiction: she is not alone. She is the daughter of Satyaveer Malhotra - one of the most feared mafia dons in the country - and sister to three ruthless crime lords. Thrown from hell into a den of lions, Aarya finds herself in a world she cannot understand - a world of power, guns, secrets, and brothers who speak in bullets and silence. Cold, broken, and dangerous - they don't know how to love. And neither does she. But blood remembers. And somewhere beneath the scars, loyalty, and violence... a family begins to rise..........

A single mistake bound two families in a scandal neither saw coming. But only one girl would pay the price. When Nithya Menon's elder sister confesses she's pregnant-with none other than Aarush Kumar, the youngest son of a powerful and traditional family-chaos erupts. No one expected it, and certainly not Aarav Kumar, the family's quiet, disciplined heir. To protect the family's honor and silence society's whispers, Sulochana Devi Kumar-the matriarch with an iron will-makes a ruthless demand: the Menon family must give their younger daughter, Nithya, in marriage to her elder son, Aarav. From the moment she laid eyes on Nithya, she saw something different. Obedient. Graceful. Perfect. Aarav has no choice but to obey. Nithya never expected to be a solution to someone else's problem. Thrust into a marriage she didn't choose, with a man who barely looks at her, Nithya must navigate a home where every smile hides a motive, and every silence speaks louder than words. But as tension simmers and hearts slowly unravel, will Nithya and Aarav find love in the marriage that began as a punishment? Or will their story remain one written by everyone-except themselves?

They lost their parents too soon... Mishty, the youngest, born on the day their parents died... loved by a few but blamed by many. Her brother Mahir thought her as a curse, and it hurts more. He pushed away Mishty. Because whenever he saw Mishty's face, he reminded the curse day when their father, mother, and brother die. But between all hates, Mishty has her another mother. Mira, who took all responsibilities of Mishty and became a mother overnight

"Her innocent King" He never wore a crown, never held a gun... but still, he ruled her world. She was born with blood on her hands and fire in her veins-the mafia princess everyone feared. A girl who could break ribs without breaking a sweat, yet secretly dreamed of fairy tales. And he? He was just a boy with flour-dusted fingers and a heart too pure for her dark world. A gamer. A dreamer. The last person you'd expect to survive her storm. But fate doesn't ask for permission. One forced marriage. One innocent heart trapped in her dangerous empire. One girl who would tear down the underworld to protect the only man who made her feel human. She was raised to be a queen of crime- But for him, she chose to be his princess first... and his protector forever. After all, he wasn't just her husband. He was... Her innocent King. 👑 "When he is be like agar mein aapke kharche nahi uthapaya toh..."

Navya gave him a look and snatched the spoon from him, but he ignored her, turning back to his brother who was glaring at him. "Just talk to ma, Vivaan", Yash rolls his eyes.

✦ COMPLETE ✦ - Book One (no cliffhanger) His greatest sin wasn't treason. It was having a half-human daughter. Prince Eirran is a winged Ilari, a former warrior and Seraph. His only crime was loving a human woman - a crime that cost her her life and left him with a living, breathing secret: their daughter. Lily is half-human, half-Ilari, and utterly wingless. A "mudborn princess" - not a title, but a slur. Her very existence is a blasphemy that could shatter the empire. To protect her, Eirran must hide her in plain sight, battling the vipers of his court who would see her erased. But as Lily grows, a dormant inheritance awakens within her - that could unravel the world itself. Earthborn blends political intrigue with mythic atmosphere and deeply intimate character work.

Yet as days turn into nights, Keng begins to notice the things he was never supposed to: the way Namping stands silently behind him at family dinners, the way he flinches when scolded for breaking a rule he never knew, the way he hides his loneliness behind a polite smile.

But in a family where loyalty is law and emotions are weakness, loving Namping might cost Keng everything... including him.

This is a story that shows how quietly a heart can break when love is uneven and words turn into wounds. It reminds us that some people grow up feeling invisible, carrying pain no one ever sees-until it's too late. And when Azira's journal is found and becomes known, the world finally understands what she lived through: what it looks like when someone is treated differently, forgotten, compared, and left to suffer in silence. Her pages become a mirror, reflecting the truth that many are too afraid to speak-proof that every unkindness has a weight, and every ignored pain can change a life forever. This story is about a girl who tried to survive the world's quiet cruelty, about the love that wasn't enough, and the love that was-but was taken too soon from her. In this story, some of us are painfully relatable-because when your only source of comfort is taken away, the world suddenly feels colder, heavier, and unbearably quiet. It hits so deeply when the one person who kept your heart together is gone... and all that's left is the silence they used to protect you from.

She was forced to marry a man everyone feared. He never wanted a wife-especially not a girl like her. Cold. Heartless. Untouchable. But she was the only one who dared to look into his eyes... and stay. And now? He'll destroy the world before letting her go. She was his calm.... HE was her chaos. And to uncover the rest... turn the page...
