The Unspoken Vows
This story revolves around Arjun who is pressured by his family and political advisors to get married to improve his public image. A girl Meera, from a modest background, is chosen because of her 'simple' reputation, believed to be the perfect quiet political wife. Neither of them is thrilled, but both agree for their families sake. The wedding is grand but devoid of emotion. But love has a way of creeping in, even in the coldest places. As they navigate a life built on unspoken expectations, they find themselves caught in a storm of high emotions. Meera, who was meant to be a shadow, refuses to disappear. Arjun, who was never meant to care, finds himself drawn to the fire in her eyes. Together, they endure the relentless storms of politics, personal battles, and the pain of a love that neither of them dares to name. There are no grand confessions, no promises spoken aloud. But in the spaces between anger and understanding, between distance and longing, something fragile yet unbreakable begins to grow. This is not a love story of easy romance-it is a love forged in suffering, in resilience, in the quiet strength of standing beside each other through every heartbreak. It is a story of unsaid words, of love that is felt rather than spoken. It is the story of their unspoken vows.

Rich People Problems
As much as Kimberly Astor hated to admit it, she had a slight problem. Okay, so it was theoretically a major problem, but it wasn't entirely her fault. Okay, so it was her fault, (at least to a certain extent, according to her) but her dad didn't need to be all rude about it. He especially did not need to threaten her future role as CEO on it too. And, setting up an arranged marriage to fix said 'problem' is so out of proportion. Okay, it wasn't completely out of proportion, but still. Jace Kingston didn't know what he was getting into when he agreed to be married to a 'problematic heiress'. He certainly was not expecting a sexy vixen, who was hellbent on getting on his nerves and destroying the semblance of normalcy he established in his complex life. So, when the two come together to form a business alliance, they make a simple plan. 1. Fix the problem. 2. Don't ever bring up personal things. 3. Get out. Too bad breaking the second rule is making the third rule look a lot more... difficult.
