**"Parvati was never wanted. Not when she was born, not when she learned to read, and certainly not when she turned twenty-two long past the 'right age' for a village bride. Dark-skinned and unwanted, she was a burden her parents were desperate to throw away. So they found Shiv the drunk youngest son of a poor farmer, heartbroken and ignored by his own family. A man they believed would ruin her life faster than they ever could. But fate has a strange way of mocking cruelty. What began as a marriage of neglect slowly became a story of two broken people mending each other, one quiet act of love at a time."** ---

Isn't it bizarre as to how important is the name of the family in the society today. How allot of things happen behind closed doors but it's all Happy and Happening for the world!

Ash Keller is not a revolutionary. He's Exhausted. He works in a hospital where care ends when coverage does, and where survival is a line item, not a promise. When reality begins to fracture around him, governments call it a risk. Institutions call it a liability. Everyone agrees it must be controlled. Ash only knows what he's seen-and what he can no longer ignore. As pressure mounts and the world closes in, a single, terrible question takes shape: If the system cannot be fixed, is it still worth obeying? The Reluctant Emperor: Genesis is a grounded, morally complex epic about reluctant power, institutional decay, and what happens when mercy becomes infrastructure.

Prologue " Come here and kiss me.....make love to me", the woman said,in a seductive voice, leaning over the man. " Get away from me", The man said angrily, pushing the woman, making her fall on the floor. " I have never seen such a shameless woman like you. It has been less than three months since your husband had died and here you are busy seducing your husband's brother,like a characterless woman", the man said angrily, looking at her with a disgusted filled voice. The woman looked into his eyes without any expressions. " Don't talk rubbish. He is already dead. And you want me to bury my desires with him. No way, it's never going to happen. Moreover,now I have lost my heart to you", the woman said without any care. " If you weren't the mother of my brother's child,I would have thrown you out of this house. It's the last warning for you, stay within your limits and don't disrespect your late husband who had left his house just to marry you in the past. At least, respect his love towards you", the man said and stormed outside angrily. A tear escaped from the woman's eye. A sob escaped from her lips, which she tried to stop by covering her mouth. She was sitting on the floor, wiping the fresh tears running down her cheeks.

"He flies high, she stays grounded, and somehow neither can stay out of each other's way." They've known each other since forever-teasing, arguing, and pushing each other to the edge. One thrives in the chaos of the skies, the other in quiet observation, and the third... well, they make sure life is never simple. Between late-night drills, pranks gone wrong, and accidental flirts in the mess hall, hearts start to notice what the eyes already know. Friendship, rivalry, laughter, and a slow-burning spark that refuses to land-this is life at 30,000 feet, and love isn't on autopilot.

For millennia, the Celestial Court ruled with perfect, stifling order. But when a strange "Silent Rain" begins to bleach the world of color, sound, and memory, the gods discover an enemy they cannot fight. Jian, the weary Jade Emperor, watches as prayers fall silent and villages turn to serene, grey stone. The invader is Hades, a god of a foreign pantheon, who offers not destruction, but a chilling gift: an end to all strife, all pain, all noise-an eternal, peaceful oblivion. As divine armies shatter against this uncanny foe and heaven's own court fractures with fear and treachery, Jian realizes the old ways are doomed. To save a world worth saving, he must become what he once despised. He will forge an alliance of the unfit. A mortal cartographer who maps despair. A bound trickster spirit who trades in chaos. A besieged king of the dead. The wretched, hungry ghosts of the underworld. With these unlikely allies, Jian must wage a war not of force, but of memory, of noise, of fragile, stubborn life. He will bargain with nightmares, wield time as a weapon, and sacrifice his own purity to outmaneuver an enemy whose ultimate goal is to make the universe forget it ever existed. The Cracking of Heaven is a breathtaking epic of cosmic diplomacy and intimate sacrifice, where the fate of all things hinges not on a hero's blade, but on a gardener's patience, a cartographer's insight, and the defiant, beautiful noise of a single, off-key song.

Sukoon sa tum~ Saanvi Verma A nineteen-year-old girl who believes in staying. Quietly observant and softly stubborn, Saanvi doesn't rush through life. She listens more than she speaks, notices what others miss, and believes that love doesn't always need words. New to the city and the university, she carries her faith gently, never loud, never demanding. She believes some bonds are felt before they are understood, and some people arrive not to change your life, but to become a part of it. She doesn't fall in love suddenly. She falls slowly. Without even realizing when it began. Ishaan Devansh Arora An engineering student by compulsion, not choice. Ishaan is calm where others react, silent where words fail, and distant in ways he never explains. He has learned to live with what he has lost and rarely speaks about what still hurts. Faith is something he once knew closely, but life taught him to step away from. He doesn't believe in love that promises forever, only in surviving one day at a time. Until someone stays long enough for him to notice. They don't come together easily. There are pauses. Distance. Time apart. Moments where loving each other feels harder than letting go. She understands him before he understands himself. He loves her with a depth he never knew he was capable of. And somewhere between waiting and returning, love stops being a feeling and starts becoming a choice. Would falling in love cost them more than they are willing to give? When love is tested by time, distance, and silence, who holds on and who lets go? ~Tum meri tapasya

Genevieve's job always lends itself to a fresh start. As a travel specialist, her new job posting in Romania will give her plenty of time to de-stress and recover from a nasty breakup.

Between Avatar Kuruk and Roku, there was another. A Fire Nation Avatar who defied her own people, fell in love with an Air Nomad, and stood against an empire's first sparks of conquest. Her name was Osyra. With her soulbound lionhound Rhazor and the spirit-bird Solari, she fought to stop the Fire Nation's march across the world. But when her enemies turned to dark spirits, opening a rift that threatened both realms, Osyra faced a choice no Avatar should bear: unleash destruction, or sacrifice herself to close the tear. To save the world, Osyra gave her flame, her soul, and her name. Erased from history, forgotten by mortals, she remained only as a whisper in the cycle - until Aang.

Read the description please!! Humanity was saved. Y/N was the price. A seraph born to end a war she never chose, Y/N is feared as much as she is worshipped-seen not as a person, but as a weapon powerful enough to reshape the world. To protect humanity, she lied and took the blame for a sin that was never hers, surrendering herself before anyone else could be condemned. Before they take her away, she turns to Guren one last time, wings trembling, lips curved into a smile that's already breaking. "Farewell, Guren." She is sealed within a garden too beautiful to be called a prison, hidden from the world and preserved like a relic. Immortal like him, she is denied freedom not because she is dangerous-but because she is irreplaceable. Guren refuses to accept a future built on her captivity. If the world chose to lock away a seraph and call it peace, then he will fight gods, systems, and eternity itself to bring her back. Because worship is just another kind of cage. And not even an eternity will stop him-if he's fighting for her. A/N: Hii and a big thank you for all the reads on my other fic-it truly means a lot to me. While rewatching SAO, especially the Fairy Dance arc, I got inspired to create my own version of it with a few twists of my own. And listen bro, I had no idea what to make the cover and I can't do digital art to save my life 😭 so we're settling for this pic from pinterest for now. I don't normally do this but I decided to write this as an x Reader instead of an OC so you can fully step into Y/N's place. I really hope you enjoy this story, and I hope to receive the same love and support on this fic as well. Thank you for being here 🫶
