Sage Brown is not your typical 23-year-old university student, she has a dark past filled with even darker secrets. She is determined not to let these secrets spill into the reality she has built for herself as she tries desperately to juggle her responsibilities. 

Getting on with her life after her dad has been put behind bars is becoming increasingly difficult, looking after her nine year old brother while studying full time, running a business and keeping track of her secrets isn't easy and it's made harder when she finds out that good-looking, brooding and kinda creepy, Hunter Keen is not only her partner for her final thesis but knows more about her than he's letting on.

Keeping people at arms length comes naturally but what will she do when Hunter weasels his way into her life and her brothers heart, how does all this lead to the time of her life, a betrayal and kidnapping all at the same time?

Sage will do anything to keep the two sides of her separate but with the truth bubbling to the top and an unwanted guest's arrival, how long will she be able to keep her cool?

17 parts Ongoing Mature
Before college begins, Shraddha and Abhay are tied together by a secret - an arranged marriage neither wanted but both must live. Shraddha, a bold and vibrant Tamil Brahmin girl with a love for dance and literature, steps into Mumbai's bustling university carrying the weight of tradition and a heart full of silent dreams. Abhay, her charismatic senior and a second-year literature student from a wealthy business family, is everything she isn't - confident, reckless, and untouchable to everyone but her. Bound by vows whispered in secrecy, they navigate a campus where they are strangers in public and something much more behind closed doors. As their worlds collide - rich and orthodox, modern and rebellious - they learn that love doesn't always come in loud declarations. Sometimes, it is written in quiet verses and stolen moments. _____ "I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul." _____ Will their vows confine them, or will the verses they write together set them free? ⸻ TROPES: Secret Marriage Senior × Junior College Heartthrob × New Student Enemies to Lovers (Slow-Burn) Grumpy × Bold (with a twist) Culture Clash North Indian × South Indian Literature Nerds × Silent Pining ______ Hashtags #SecretMarriage #ArrangedMarriage #CollegeRomance #EnemiesToLovers #SlowBurn #WattpadIndia #DesiLoveStory #GrumpyxBold #SeniorJunior #IndianRomance #NorthXSouth Highest Ranking: #66 in #WattpadIndia #58 in #WattpadIndia #53 in #wattpadindia #51 in #wattpadindia #7 in #wattpadlovestory #141 in #collegeromance #7 in #wattpadlovestory #5 in #wattpadlovestory #2 in #cultureclash #2 in #poeticlove
