    Hello everyone I'm back and I'm planning to rewrite this book.😜 They buried a child they were told never lived. Years later, a little girl with silver hair, mismatched eyes, and scars no two-year-old should have walks into their world-unnamed, unclaimed, and afraid. The López family doesn't know who she is. But someone does. And they never wanted her found. She didn't die. She was erased

    Some bonds are chosen. Some are promised. And some are tied when two lives collide. Vanya Rathore - a soft-spoken interior designer from Rajasthan - has mastered the art of appearing whole. Betrayed by the parents she no longer wishes to call her own, she hides her fractures behind elegance, choosing silence over resentment. Love and marriage, to her, feel like fragile illusions - beautiful, but unsafe. Yuvraj Malhotra - born into a Punjabi family and raised in Delhi's disciplined world - is a man of quiet authority. A business tycoon who doesn't raise his voice to command respect, Yuvraj believes in responsibility, restraint, and standing firm when things fall apart. He doesn't chase emotions, but once something becomes his, he protects it with unwavering steadiness. Their first meeting isn't planned - it's chaotic. A moment tangled in noise, interruptions, and misunderstandings... yet impossible to forget. What begins as an arranged alliance slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Not loud declarations, but lingering silences. Not promises, but presence. A marriage where tension simmers beneath calm conversations, and intimacy grows in the smallest moments. He watches without intruding. She resists, yet feels seen. Between shared nights, unspoken boundaries, and a pull they don't name, Knot of Destiny unfolds a romance that is subtle, restrained, and dangerously real. Because sometimes, destiny doesn't arrive gently - it crashes in, rearranges everything... and ties the knot.

    This is an alternate timeline, fractured and unstable, where canon does not unfold as it should. You are an outsider to this reality. Carrying a golden light that only resonates to you. Unlike any power known before, it does not conquer-it resonates, quietly altering the Planet, the city and the choices of those stand near it. In this altered reality, only one being understands what you truly are-Sephiroth, existing between death, memory, and the Lifestream. You do not fight him. Not to fix him. You stay. The Golden Girl is a slow-burn Final Fantasy VII alternate universe that focuses on atmosphere, emotional restraint, and the cost of staying in a world that was never meant to keep you. This story is not combat-driven and does not follow the main game's progression. It explores Sephiroth through stillness rather than conflict, and love through silence rather than possession. If you are seeking action or adventure, this may not be the story you're looking for. If you are drawn to something that lingers, introspection, and quiet tragedy, then this might for you.

    She was the youngest mistake. The quiet one no one defended. The girl born too small to matter. At nineteen, she has learned how to disappear-how to shrink herself between cruel words, favoritism, and a family that never chose her. Except for one brother who visits too rarely, love has always been something she watches others receive. He is everything she is not. Powerful. Untouchable. Feared. At twenty-five, his name bends the world to its knees. Violence listens when he speaks. Wealth follows his shadow. He was raised to rule, to command, to never soften. Until her. She does not belong in his world. She is too gentle. Too innocent. Too breakable. But once his eyes land on her, the world that ignored her no longer exists. And for the first time in her life- someone chooses her.

    There's a moment after every disaster when the world goes still - a quiet so sharp it feels like it could break. Kate has lived in that silence for years. But when a brutal attack tears through the safehouse she's been hiding in with her little sister, she's forced into the night with a stranger she barely trusts. The quiet that follows isn't peace. It's a warning. And the people hunting them won't stop until the silence breaks again.

    She didn't talk much. Not because she had nothing to say- but because no one really listened. She spoke to the sky instead. To the moon. To the silence that understood her better than people ever did. This is a story about loneliness, quiet strength, and staying-even when it hurts.

    Prologue The night was drenched in blood and desire. A storm raged outside, but it was nothing compared to the one brewing inside her. For one year, she had waited, plotting, breaking, rebuilding herself into something unrecognizable. Love had turned into obsession, pain into power, and longing into vengeance. Now, she was here-standing at the gates of his world, the world he abandoned her for. The shadows whispered his name, the underworld trembled at his command, but tonight, the Lord of the Dark Realm would kneel. Not for power. Not for war. But for her. And when their eyes met across a room filled with devils, she knew-this night would end with either his submission or their ruin. Love and war were never separate for them. And tonight, they would burn together. Unbreakable Bond (Fated Love) Touch Her and You Die Cold, Ruthless ML x Fiery FL Revenge & Obsession Forced Proximity Morally Grey ML Possessive Male Lead

    This is not a love story. This is a survival story. A healing story. A story for the ones who never said it out loud, but always felt it too deeply. If you're one of them - welcome home. She was never just "quiet." She was a wildfire trapped inside a diary- folded thoughts, stitched lips, and a voice too afraid to echo. Everyone admired her strength. No one saw the weight. This isn't a love story. It's the journey of a girl who bled her truth into poems, masked her pain behind metaphors, and slowly... gently... learned how to un-silence herself. If you've ever felt too much, cared too deeply, or hidden too long- this is your story too.

    Kihan Haneul lives in the quiet spaces between anxiety and escape, where the weight of unspoken fears presses heavier than the night. When sleep becomes both a refuge and a risk, the line between peace and oblivion begins to blur. This story is inspired by my own personal experience with anxiety and unhealthy coping. Please remember: what Kihan does in this story is dangerous and should never be imitated. If you're struggling, reach out - there is help, and there are safer ways to find peace. For anyone who has ever wanted the world to go quiet - you are not alone.

    > They call her invisible. But all seven of them heard her silence. Elaria R. Veyan was never supposed to be seen-especially not by the seven most powerful idol kings in the world. She forged her age, her records, her identity-just to get close enough to protect them from the shadows she swore to fight alone. No one knew of the vow she made at fifteen... or how it almost cost her everything. Until one scandal. One breakdown. One night her mask slipped- and all seven saw the trembling girl hiding beneath the soldier's shell. She thought they'd ignore her. Instead, they touched her. Carried her. And one by one, began to claim her as theirs. Not romantically. Not sweetly. Not gently. They touched her like she was sacred. Like a vow. Like the girl they'd been waiting to protect for lifetimes. - 🕯 Dark idol-mafia x found soul-baby 🩸 Possessive. Protective. Primal. 👑 Seven kings. One lamb. ---
