When after years of pain, anguish and tears, she finally tried to get up and face the world, finally wanted to welcome love rather than pushing everything away; when she, after all the hardships, was ready to take a chance or rather give a chance to her heart to fly and let someone conquer it, she again realised the cruelty of the world. The feelings, the happiness, the care - all just for a bet!? All those moments that still rule her heart were only to win a stupid bet!? Will this betrayal be the last nail in coffin for her or will she put herself before her feelings and fight against the world?
What started with a silly bet, for him, has now turned into love. But right when he wants to confess his mistake, get rid of the guilt and feel love everything is shattered to tether. She broke - in front of him. And who could he blame other than his own self? He shredded her despite the fact that she had trusted only him in this whole wide world. Will he drown in his own pit of guilt and darkness or will he fight for that one chance to win the love of his life back?
Join Arnav and Khushi's story of friendship, love, betrayal and pain.

Healing Hearts
The first day at Crestwood High was supposed to be exhilarating-new friends, new experiences. But as I walked through the bustling halls, anxiety crept in. Everyone seemed to fit in, while I felt like a puzzle piece that didn't belong. Then I saw him-Arnav. Alone by his locker, a striking figure with dark hair and piercing eyes, he carried the weight of the world. Rumors swirled: the handsome loner, once full of life but now silent. I was drawn to him, intrigued by the shadows beneath his surface. Whispers hinted at a tragic past-a betrayal that had turned him into a ghost of his former self. Little did I know how intertwined our lives would become. As our paths crossed, I longed to peel back the layers of his heart and understand the pain hidden behind that stoic facade. My quest for answers would lead us both down a tumultuous path of healing, confronting ghosts of the past, and discovering the power of love. This is our story-a tale of broken hearts, unexpected connections, and the journey toward finding light in the darkest places. It all began that first day, when everything felt uncertain, and hope was just a whisper away. Writer's Disclaimer "Healing Hearts" is a work of fiction.

My Second Love ✓
Highest rank: #26 in fanfiction, #1 in Arshi Won "CHARM AWARD" on IPKKND CHARM AWARDS-2K18 **UNEDITED- FIRST DRAFT** "Khushi, at least we can be friends right?" He asked hoping against hope. She kept mum displeasing him. "You're not ready to accept me as your husband at least we can be friends right?" He repeated his question taking steps towards her. She remains tight lipped sitting on the bed as if the other person was invisible. He sat beside her and put his palm on hers which rested on the soft bed. Next moment she shoved his palm and stood up abruptly. Her face screamed her hate. "I have enough friends in my life. And certainly I was in no need to accept you in my life. Don't ever come near me" She bit out harshly and added further breaking his heart into million of pieces. "MY HEART BEATS ONLY FOR HIM. AND IT WILL BEAT ONLY FOR HIM. YOU WILL NEVER GET A PLACE IN MY HEART. STAY AWAY" He stood too stunned to react anything. His love loves someone else. His conjugal life finished even before it starts. Is it his fault that he came second in her life??? ^^Cover credit: Sujzwriter^^ ****Complete

Author's Note: This is my only unedited book; the style of writing is thus different from what you might have seen in my other books. Compared to them, this book also has much more grammatical mistakes. Hope you enjoy it nevertheless. ________________ ~"Khushi Kumari Gupta , will you marry me? Here...in this same mandap!! Will you give me the honour of being your life partner? Will you light up my darkness filled life with your smile? Will you be with me...till the end of the time?" He asked with his hopeful eyes locked with her teary ones. ~"I love you Khushi...I really do! I can't bear even a single scratch on you...it hurts me.." He said looking at her skin which had turn red after their passionate moment. She smiled shyly and hid her face in his chest. ~"I didn't marry you because I loved you but because I wanted to use you!! This..." He caressed her cheek onto which tears had dried up, "this body!! I wanted to use this!! And this..." He placed his hand over her heart, "I wanted to play with this!!!!" ~~ Life is never a bed full of roses and her only mistake was that she denied this saying under the delusion of having a world filled with love. What happens to Khushi who has been living in a world where pain couldn't even touch her...where only happiness were awaiting her but then one day, the realisation hit her hard.

Genre: Fanfiction Sub Genre: Romance, angst READERS DISCRETION ADVISED! This book doesn't deal with sexual contents but has a mild encounter with self harm! If you can't handle the slightest of that, I advise you not to read it. It's not dark but can be harmful if you are too sensitive to stuffs such as depression and mental instability.Complete
Till Death Do Us Part
The day meant to be the best day of her life had turned out to be the worst one. Celebration of love and harmony, which the night was supposed to be, ended up as the witness to bloodshed and hatred. With the stench of corpses choking her and the sight of mutilated bodies shattering her, Khushi stood benumbed, decked up in exquisite bridal finery, and the signs of a newly married woman shining brightly against her paled demeanor and the blood which had splayed against her; the blood of her own, maybe of her own father. Her father's lifeless body was strewn across several others and her mother's breathing yet lost body hovered over his; her hollow and teary eyes pleading him to rise and embrace her but her efforts were in vain. But that was not the only agony killing her from inside. The affliction of betrayal, from her own husband, on the wedding day, after reiteration of his love from the passionate ministrations on their first night together, felt like the worst nightmare coming true. From the pieces of her broken heart, the resolve to avenge arose and Khushi Gupta was not the one to let her heart's desire be unheard. Deceit for a deceit, eye for an eye, heart for a heart, so what if the world ends or goes blind? After all, all is fair in love and war and Arnav Singh Raizada had turned her love into the inspiration for a bloody war. ~Stab the body and it heals, but injure the heart and the wound will last for a lifetime.~ Banner: @KoeliDalmiyaComplete
