A short fantasy novel I wrote in 30 days as a challenge.
Please excuse the SEVERAL typos and grmmar mistakes, I only pushed forward with this project and wanted to share what I came up with in the alotted time.

Against the Wind tells the true story of the Crowley brothers. A children's tale of three brothers who braved the winter winds to return home to their father's castle of Emmen's Crest. The true story is far worse than the tale itself.

TWO HEARTS ENTWINED TOGETHER ✔ by Ruhi_93
43 parts Complete
He thought she betrayed him. She thought love would bring him back. Arnav and Aaradhana were soulmates... until silence tore them apart. "I loved you like my whole world, Aaradhana." "Then why did you destroy it with your doubt, Arnav?" Three years ago, one lie whispered in the dark changed everything. Arnav believed the worst. Aaradhana chose to stay silent-out of love, out of fear, out of pain. And just like that, a love so pure turned into heartbreak. "I died every day waiting for you," she whispers. "You should've screamed the truth instead of whispering lies," he replies, eyes burning. Now, after years of distance and despair, fate throws them together again-not through their own story, but through the blooming love of their younger siblings. "What a joke... love runs in the family," he mocks, eyes cold. "It used to," she says softly, "until you taught it how to bleed." Aaradhana never stopped loving him. She clung to every shared smile, every unspoken word, every promise he once made. Arnav? He buried his love beneath rage, convincing himself it was betrayal, not love, that lived in her silence. "You still haunt me, Aaradhana. I see you in every shadow, every silence, every damn heartbeat." "Then why do you keep running from the only place you ever belonged?" As secrets unravel and the past claws its way back, they must face the truth: Love never truly leaves. But pride? Pride can burn down everything it touches. Will Arnav open his eyes before it's too late? Will Aaradhana's patience finally be rewarded-or shattered beyond repair? A storm of emotions. A past that refuses to die. And a love that still dares to hope. 🕰️ Start Date: 3rd April 2017 🕰️ End Date: 18th June 2017 🕰️ Edited Date: November 2025
