His P.A. ✔️ by StarsAndFireflies_

Manik Malhotra, the name itself brings so many emotions in ones mind- love, passion, music and fear. He was a rock star and a businessman for the world that looked upon him, but a monster for the world that he looked upon. But what happens when Nandini Murthy, another fangirl who is madly in love with him gets stuck with him? Will she be able to mend him with her love? Or will he destroy her with the same love that she has to offer him? Empty promises made. Misunderstandings created. Tears wasted. Anger wrapped. But fates sealed. And heavens listened. He- the infamous CEO; She- his personal assistant; and this, is their not-so-cliché love story. #3 in fan fiction on 8/4/2018. #2 in fan fiction on 17/4/2018. #1 in fan fiction on 21/4/2018.

Intern's Heart by storywriterx99

Nandini Murthy, a 20-year-old intern at a bustling copywriting firm, is known for her charm and the effortless way she makes friends wherever she goes. But there's one person she hasn't quite managed to break through with-Manik Malhotra. At 23, Manik is sharp, well-spoken, and maintains a professional distance, his words always precise and few. Despite his strong reputation in the office, there's an undeniable tension between him and Nandini, a quiet undercurrent of something more lurking beneath their brief, minimal exchanges. What is it that keeps them so apart yet so drawn together?

Overly sensitive, moody and emotionally unstable are a few words her loved ones use to describe her. Between growing up too fast to follow her older sister Mukti's footsteps, and sacrificing too much of herself for her baby sister Navya, life gives her the shorter end of the stick. She's never known love without conditions. Especially since moving to Kalpavruksha Apartments-since the time he entered her life. Manik Malhotra. He's the golden child with everything handed to him-money, grades, respect, love. Not just from his family, but somehow even from hers. Nothing shakes him, because he lives by one stern principle: love means signing up to a hidden set of terms. So he runs miles away from anything remotely inciting of emotion altogether, defying emotions with logic and rationality. But for how long?
