Sweet,always understanding - the rare sort who could look into the darkest heart and believe it could change. She never judged, always seeing hope in the harshest places. From her first breath, Arya learned what the world wanted from her. Not love, not care, just destruction. "𝐵𝑜𝑟𝑛 𝑡𝑜 𝑑𝑖𝑒" "𝐾𝑖𝑙𝑙 ℎ𝑒𝑟" "𝑑𝑖𝑒" Said by people who always saw her as nothing. But softness didn't mean she had no scars. Some were on her body - faint lines left behind by pain. Others stayed hidden deep within, whispering in the night. Things were done to her no child should bear, Words more like curses, meant to crush her worth. Her past was always a mystery. When asked, Arya never shared, as if secrets waited beneath her silence, as if she wished to speak but couldn't. Then her world changed. To those who feared him, it was fate's cruel way. Ranveer Malhotra - his name made dangerous men shiver - brought Arya home.He was a shadow king, underworld's ruler. But to Arya, he was papa. With him came six brothers, storms who would tear the sky if she was hurt. They loved her by heart,same goes to uncle naren who thought her as his own daughter. - ❤️𝐀𝐑𝐘𝐀❤️

Adrija is a spirited twenty-year-old fighter. Having lost her mother, she was left without even a final sanctuary after her father remarried. Her entire world now revolves around the smiling face of her four-year-old little sister, Ira, and the pages of her own diary. Despite working odd jobs to support her impoverished household, she dreams that one day her writing will find a place on a major platform. On the other hand stands thirty-three-year-old Ahan Khan. The master of a vast business empire, he is simultaneously-behind the scenes-a mysterious and brilliant hacker. The only emotional anchors in Ahan's life are his four childhood friends: Kiyan, Biraj, Niharika, and Ahana. To the rest of the world, he remains as hard as stone and fiercely professional. One quiet night, a "wrong number"-a mistaken call-alters the trajectory of both their lives. They have never met, nor do they know one another; yet, a melancholic voice reaching him from the other end of the line sparks a flicker of curiosity in Ahan. Thus begins a peculiar bond, forged across the telephone lines. With Adrija battling poverty and Ahan grappling with the loneliness hidden beneath his aristocratic facade-can these two individuals, hailing from such disparate worlds, ever truly unite? Simultaneously, will the two unfinished love stories lying hidden beneath the surface of the enduring friendship shared by Kiyan, Biraj, Niharika, and Ahana finally find their fulfillment? Will Adrija be able to use the magic of her pen to awaken love within Ahan's hardened heart? Or will the mysterious world of Ahan-the hacker-rise up as an insurmountable wall between their relationship?

In a world where every move matters, the game has already begun. When a quiet and observant student named Arko begins solving small, unusual mysteries, nothing seems out of place-until the cases start connecting. A missing manuscript. A vanished tram. A silent portrait hiding secrets. Each mystery is a move. Each clue, a pattern. As Arko digs deeper, he realizes someone is playing a much larger game from the shadows. And this time, he may not just be the one solving it... but a piece on the board. Set against the backdrop of Kolkata, Shadows on the Board is a gripping detective story filled with suspense, intelligence, and unexpected twists. Because in this game... Every move has a consequence. New stories on the way! NOTE:-This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are either the product of the author's imagination or used fictitiously.

At thirty-four, Prithwijit Ganguly has power, wealth, and a carefully engineered public image. What he does not have is an heir. Marriage is inconvenient. Scandal is unacceptable. So he drafts a solution. Indrani Dutta. Twenty-one. High IQ. From a wealthy family. Medically screened. Contractually secured. Two years of cohabitation. Pregnancy. A child. No emotions. No claims. No future beyond the agreement. It is efficient. Controlled. Transactional. Until control begins to shift. Because Indrani is not fragile. Not naïve. Not disposable. And the more calculated the arrangement becomes, the more dangerous the cracks in it are. Legacy demands blood. Power demands precision. But desire, ego, and autonomy do not follow contracts. ⚠️ Content Warnings This work contains: Age-gap relationship (all characters are adults) Non-traditional relationship structure Unmarried pregnancy and parenthood Postpartum themes and early parenthood dynamics Discussions of marriage, legitimacy, and social expectations Family pressure regarding commitment and public recognition Power imbalance related to wealth and political status Public scrutiny and reputational concerns References to societal labeling and stigma Exploration of autonomy, consent, and emotional dependency Institutional and cultural critique (marriage, lineage, social norms)

Set in the pre-independence era, the story revolves around the lives of the main protagonists and the challenges they face in order to create an identity of themselves in an Independent India. But what happens if in the process of finding their routes to success, they happen to stumble upon each other's routes and the strings of fate tangle up in such a way that in order to save all of them, somebody will have to sacrifice themselves? एक तरफ जहां आज़ादी की आग भड़क रही थी, तो वहीं दूसरी तरफ चार दिल, अपने दिलों में एक ऐसी आग को हवा दे रहे थे जिसमें जल कर सब कुछ राख हो जाने वाला था। This story is going to be a crossover of the Itv dramas "Barrister Babu" and "Kyun Utthe Dil Chhod Aaye" so there might be some scenes that are taken from the actual drama but otherwise it is purely based on my take on the two stories.

When fierce, fire-hearted Raishi accidentally ties the knot with India's cricket sensation and secret mafia king, Shubman Gill, sparks fly and not the romantic kind. From explosive clashes to undeniable chemistry, their journey from enemies to lovers is a whirlwind of danger, fame, secrets, and sizzling tension. In a world where love was never part of the plan, fate plays the ultimate matchmaker.

Hatred....it is what protects love. Forgiveness......it is what teaches love Acceptance.......it is what preaches loves Love.......it is what I love -Iti Oindrila

Since ancient times, a woman's life has been likened to a river. She is born in one place, often unnamed, and flows forward-not by choice, but by circumstance. Along her path, she nourishes all she touches. She gives, but is rarely held. In the end, she reaches the ocean-not as a retreat, but as a return. For the ocean has always waited for her-quiet, vast, eternal. Some poets say it is her destiny; others believe it is the love she was always denied-an ardent longing that defines her journey.

Lutalica, (n) the part of your identity that doesn't fit into categories. Only word that perfectly defines me. Here, I am presenting a tapestry of poetry that I embroidered with the thread of metaphor.

Warning : the face cards I used are the face cards for the charecters and the novel is inspired by lovely runner. (𝙰 𝚕𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚕𝚢 𝚛𝚞𝚗𝚗𝚎𝚛 𝚏𝚊𝚗 𝚏𝚒𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗) 🧸 Born in the heart of Kolkata but rooted in Filipino blood, Anoushka grows up feeling like a beautiful contradiction-never fully belonging, yet never invisible. Her life is ordinary on the surface: college, crowded streets, quiet dreams she never says out loud. But beneath it all, she carries a past filled with unanswered questions, unspoken loneliness, and a heart that has learned to admire from a distance. On the other side of the world stands Kim Seorin, a global sensation and a key member of the internationally acclaimed band Visper. Loved by millions, worshipped on stage, and untouchable in the public eye-Seorin lives a life wrapped in flashing lights and deafening cheers. Yet behind the fame lies a man drowning in expectations, secrecy, and a solitude no spotlight can erase. Their worlds were never meant to collide. Different countries. Different realities. Different lives. But fate has its own plans. A chance encounter blurs the line between admiration and reality, pulling Anoushka into a world she only ever watched from afar. As emotions deepen and truths unravel, she learns that loving someone admired by the world comes with a price-one paid in silence, sacrifice, and strength. This is not just a story about fame and love. It is about identity, belonging, and the courage it takes to choose yourself when the world wants to define you. A slow-burn romance woven with longing, distance, and destiny- where hearts collide, secrets surface, and love is anything but easy.
