Intercultural Stories

This wasn't supposed to happen. It was meant to be only a one time thing. But when things stopped being 'fake' from one side, things tend to get a bit...messy. Flynn Beckett wanted to get Lily away from him, so he went to the one person he knew she hated most with a very unexpected proposal. Unexpected, why? He didn't like that person any better than Lily did. James Davis rejected her. So as to not ruin their little trio, Lydia had to act okay. When Flynn came to her with this unexpected proposal, she saw no harm in agreeing. It is, after all, fake. What could go wrong? Everything.

"We are two lost stars. One is lost in her kindness,her responsibilities and her duty. Other one is lost in his selfishness, his freedom and his carelessness . She believed in sacrifice ; he believed in abandonment. They say opposites attract- I never believed it until I met him. That encounter changed my life completely."

I once told someone, in my best Devdas voice and with the utmost seriousness, "One day I'll write a book for you before I die." She looked at me, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Write it in a language I can read. Otherwise, I'll come kick your grave. Kameene, yeh kya likh ke mar gaya? Mujhe bhi padhni thi." (You scoundrel, what is this nonsense you wrote and then went and died? I wanted to read it too!) That should give you an idea about the heart of this story. Set in the 2010s Canada, between chai and snow, this is the story of Alizey and Zayan. Zayan didn't believe in marriage. Alizey believed it was sacred. He thought love was like mist, meant to be felt, not seen. She thought he sounded like an overdramatic Victorian novel. They didn't marry for romance. They married for a plan. The arrangement was simple. The feelings were not. What began as a practical agreement, two adults negotiating boundaries, rent, and kitchen duties, slowly turned into something far more unstoppable. Because love, when it finally arrives, doesn't knock politely. It walks in silently and stays. This is a story about marriage before love. Trust before desire. Surrender before confession. And the confounding realisation that sometimes, you don't choose your life partner. You just discover you already have.

Two cultures. Two languages. One unexpected love. Poorni Reddy never imagined falling for someone like Kim Min-Jae - a quiet Korean developer who just arrived in Bangalore.

Will their love survive the miles between Busan and India? Or will their story end before it truly begins? ✨ A slow-burn international romance about love, courage, and choosing each other.

Seeking solace at the Han River after a frustrating day, Ese has a second encounter with Youngho.

As their lives begin to intertwine, they find harmony, proving that sometimes the most profound connections are often the ones you never saw coming. -Rominaj♡

.....in every human race there was always a lightning god stronger than most of the Pantheon. But then as time went on and intercultural interaction flourished, stories and ideologies clashed as each culture had its own version of the lightning gods. Many gods were thought to have been counterparts of each other in tribes across the world. Poseidon,Lord of the Seas in Greek culture was thought to likely be also Neptune in Roman culture, Hephaestus the Metal Welding god was Ogun in the West African Yoruba culture. Thinking that these gods were the same,modern humans concluded that the early humans just had coincidental versions of mythology. But little did they know that each god was a separate entity of its own. Poseidon existed as did Neptune, Zeus lived alongside Odin and so many others but that mystery has gone unsolved for centuries.................. until now.
