"It was a brief affair . Even calling it an affair would be a disgrace to both of us and our families when riots were erupting everywhere ." She said in her Punjabi -accent English to her Canadian -accented grandson . She was in the last stages of life .Her face wrinkled , knuckled reflecting like a crisp shirt , thin limbs and her hair white as snow . Even those hair were a luxury for her , when her eyelashes had fallen off .
There was another regret beside her eye lash fall and withering beauty . She couldn't find a single eye lash so that she could make a wish .
A wish of being courageous and brave enough in her next life to do a thing she wasn't able to do , to burn the last letter .

His Secret Roommate ✓
She wasn't supposed to be in his life. He wasn't supposed to care. Hiding from a dark past that nearly destroyed her, she ends up in the most unexpected place living secretly in the bedroom of a stranger, hidden from his family, her name erased from the world outside. He gives her shelter without questions. What begins as a quiet coexistence grows into something unspoken. She's hiding in his room. He's hiding his feelings. And outside their stolen peace, the storm is closing in. Just when she begins to believe in safety, the truth catches up and nothing is what it seems. Now, with love blooming in the shadows and danger pressing at the door, she must make an impossible choice: run before he gets hurt, or stay and risk losing him forever. _________ A twisted smile spread across his face as he leaned in closer, his hot, alcohol-laced breath over her. He pressed his nose to her neck, inhaling deeply before pulling back slightly to growl in her ear, "You can't run away anymore." he slurred, his voice a sinister whisper. His eyes bore into hers with a mix of anger and possessiveness that made her blood run cold. Her mind raced, desperately trying to think of a way to escape. "Let me go!" she cried, her voice trembling. She tried to pull away, but he only tightened his grip, his other hand moving to her waist to hold her closer. "You're mine," he growled, his lips curling into a cruel smile. "And no one gets to take what's mine, not even your bastard lover".Complete

Sanely Yours
-- PROLOGUE "Let me get this straight. We have nothing in between us, except for the deal we made that day" he spoke in a monotonous tone. "I am the one carrying your name behind me; we are married. how can you say we have nothing in between us? Huh" She yelled at him, tears blurred her vision, and she spoke her heart to him. "For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --
Secretly Mended: The Tale Of Arranged Love
Priya: "I yearn to be someone's top choice, not just a backup plan. I don't need to be perfect; I just want to be myself. I dream of a love like the ones in stories and movies, enduring through thick and thin. I want someone who loves all of me - the sad, the happy, the messy, and the unpredictable. I want to be the main character in my own story, but it feels like everyone else is holding the pen." Arnav: "In this brutal world, you either wield cruelty or become its prey. Her entrance cracked open the ice around my heart, revealing the decay within. I was a hollow shell, untouched by emotion. But deep within me, a savage entity lies in wait. I didn't know I needed to be healed until I met her. It hungers for vengeance against any who dare to harm her." Blurb :- Priya recoiled as if struck, her eyes wide with shock and hurt. "Arnav, I-I'm just trying to help," she stammered, her voice trembling with suppressed emotion. I scoffed, the bitterness rising within me like bile in my throat. "Help?" I spat, the word dripping with scorn. "You think you can help me? You're nothing but a burden, Priya-a reminder of everything I've sacrificed for the sake of our companies." Tears spilled from her eyes, tracing a shimmering path down her cheeks as she stared at me with wounded disbelief. "I thought maybe, just maybe, there could be more between us," she whispered, her voice barely audible over the roar of my own self-loathing. I laughed bitterly, the sound echoing off the walls of our empty apartment like a cruel mockery. "There is no 'us,' Priya," I spat, the words tearing at my throat like razors. "We're nothing but strangers bound by a contract-a marriage of convenience, nothing more."Complete

'You didn't answer my question,' he asked, holding her gaze in his hypnotic ones. 'Wh... what question?' She was surprised at her own voice, it sounded like of someone else's. She wanted to ask him--which question, there were so many he had asked her tonight. Each one threatening in their own different ways to her sanity. Brandan smiled mysteriously. Not answering her, he instead said something else, 'Don't keep staring at me like that.' His voice was soft. Suddenly, she found herself in some other world. 'W.. why?' She stammered ridiculously. His lips slightly brushed against her, she closed her eyes in anticipation, under the spell of their lips connecting. Sparking were the electricity all over her skin. ''Cause....' He took a step back from her, leaving her cold and she was too lost to do something about it--like leaping closer to him and getting engulfed in the euphoric warmth once again. ''Cause, you will fall in love with me... ' He paused as growling deeply a set of thunders boomed above the skies. Cold wind made her hair dance around. He finally finished his sentence, 'Again.' Rain poured down upon her heavily as if the entire sky was about to break down over her, She opened her eyes against the cold water to see he had lef alreadyt, leaving her to drown into his words, completely. *** They say love's blind.
