Devasena, the daughter of Indra, has been engaged to Skanda after Skanda's legendary victory against the powerful demon, Taraka. Her father Indra, believes that the marriage will strengthen his position in Heaven as his daughter, the offspring of the King of Gods shall be marrying the Commander-in-Chief of the Gods 
  
   Devasena, believes she wants to follow her heart and dreams - she does not want to bind herself to a man who she knows has already given away his heart to another woman, the feisty tribal huntress Valli. She does not want to be constantly overshadowed by the fame and splendor of Skanda nor be used as a political pawn by her father in his never-ending chess games to retain his often waning power in Heaven
  
  Devasena is talented, blessed with intellect, beauty and a pleasant temperament but she has never been one who enjoyed war and hunting. Devasena fears that with her deep interest in more nurturing spheres, she may never develop camaraderie with the War God as the tribal huntress Valli had, a man who had earnt fame and name for his celebrated military exploits across the three
 worlds 
  
  Little does Devasena know that behind the intimidating reputation of the "War God" was a man who was witty, compassionate and loving - little does she realize that his heart may have been touched by Valli first but she would always have a special irreplaceable place in it

A MAHABHARATA RETELLING ~~~ All the other flowers in the garden were brought up to envy the rose. Maybe shun it even. And admire it, too. Unusual ways. Too-red petals, too-sharp thorns, too-sweet fragrance. If only each flower did not have a mind of its own. If only stories were truly what one hand wrote them to be. If only the blood on every thorn was the fault of the rose and not that of the hunter. ~~~ Her breathing had suddenly halted as her eyes had accidentally landed on a piece of paper carelessly tucked under the lampholder on the bedside table. It looked like the work of a royal servant who had accidentally come across it while cleaning the room and then picked it up and tucked it away. She had carefully sat up and reached for it. The hot metal of the lampholder - like the one she had seen Draupadi seamlessly remove from a counter - had almost seared her palm, as she had hurriedly but carefully pushed it aside and retrieved the folded piece of what seemed like pearlescent paper. Touching it had felt like a grave invasion of privacy, but the curiosity that had suddenly roared and raced within her like a great river breaking free off a cliff. She had hurriedly unfolded the paper and had been greeted by a not-so-perfect handwriting and a volley of letters. It was a letter. A letter that looked like someone had ripped their heart out and presented it to someone on a piece of pearlescent paper. ~~~ WARNINGS: Scenes of intimacy and violence, possible hints of self-harm or similar intentions

𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲? 𝗔 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁? But are you sure it's beautiful... and not painful? Dev Oberoi might disagree. Young, wealthy, dangerously handsome-Dev had everything. As the second eldest son of one of the world's richest families, life had always been in his control. Money, power, and simplicity were all that mattered. Until a pair of ocean blue eyes met his hazel ones, and his world shifted. A single glance. A fleeting moment. But the spark it left behind was undeniable. Days turned into weeks, then months. Casual encounters became café meet-ups, then something deeper. Love found its way in. But love doesn't always last. On what should have been the happiest morning of his life, Dev received a single message. "We're over." No explanations. No warnings. Just an end. And Ivara Shekhawat? Elegant, fierce, yet soft-hearted-she was a mix of an angel and a devil. Love was never meant for her, not when her own family saw her as a burden. But Dev made her believe in the impossible. For the first time, she had someone who made her feel cherished. For the first time, she dreamed. Until she was forced to destroy it all. That was five years ago. Now, fate plays its cruelest trick. A high-end restaurant. A marriage proposal. A man who never forgot. A woman who never stopped hurting. Dev walks in, expecting just another business dinner for his brother's proposal. Instead, he finds her-dressed in a waitress's uniform, standing before him like a ghost from the past. Coincidence? Or a twisted game of destiny? The past is still there, lingering in the air between them. The pain, the longing, the unanswered questions. The fire never died-it was only buried under five years of unresolved emotions, the fire has now re ignited, but now with flames of revenge and sickening desires. Will love get a second chance? Or will it get destroyed under this new borne Fire? (Sequel to 'Arranged

Her hair, a cascade of raven waves, flows like the ocean's endless rhythm, each strand mirroring the ebb and flow of the sea she was born from. Her eyes, the most enchanting shade of seafoam green, hold the mystery of the deepest waters - calm yet fathomless, gentle yet fierce. When she smiles, it is as if the world itself is bathed in light, the sun rising from behind a darkened sky. Even the hardest of icebergs would melt in the warmth of her gaze. Her presence is a symphony of nature itself, a reflection of the oceans, the winds, and the skies - beautiful, powerful, and unyielding. She was Padmaja, the princess of the Trivandhya alliance, born of land and sea, the youngest of the great Trivandhya empire. She was the princess of Saurashtra, her roots deep in the soil of the sacred land, yet her heart belonged to the boundless waves. She was Mahalakshmi herself, the eternal consort of Krishna, born of the lotus and the ocean, of grace and strength. She was the one who shared his burdens, who wiped his tears and lent him a shoulder to lean on when the weight of the world became too heavy. The divine protector, the guiding hand for those who faltered, Padmaja was the mother goddess of the universe, the Sarva Swamini - the all-mother, the one who embraced all in her arms, offering love, protection, and wisdom. To the Pandavas, she was not just a figure of power but their savior, their guide, and their unwavering protector. She was the strength that bolstered their resolve and the heart that healed their wounds. She was the embodiment of compassion and power, the very force that balanced the cosmos. In her, the world found solace, in her, the divine found its purpose. She was the dawn, the moonlit night, the sun's warmth - both the protector and the protector's light. And no matter the storm, no matter the darkness that loomed, Padmaja, the princess of land and sea, would always rise - a beacon of hope, an eternal mother to all.

"You will receive my resignation letter in two days." She repeated, stepping down gracefully, her presence commanding the space between them. She raised her chin and locked her gaze with his, unflinching, unwavering. "And never-ever-come before me again, Kunvar Sa. And remember this-if anything happens to my parents, you will find me before them. So, come only when you are prepared to face Ruhanika Pratap Singh!" Her voice burned with fury, her words sharp as a blade. Taking another step closer, she reached out, pressing a single finger against his chest, right where his heart beat beneath the fabric of his kurta. Her eyes, ablaze with unrestrained wrath, bore into his soul. "Aur agar hamare Maa-Baba ko kuch hua..." she whispered, her voice a lethal promise, "toh hamari jaan-yeh jaan bhi hum le lenge." (If anything happens to my parents, I will take your life with my own hands.) Every syllable shattered him into pieces. He staggered back, collapsing onto the steps of the ghat, his hands gripping his hair in frustration. Helpless. Defeated. But even through his despair, the fire of vengeance raged within him. He would not beg-his pride would not allow it. A tale of love drenched in hatred. A war between two royal bloodlines. Ruhanika Pratap Singh Daughter of Hukum Sa and Hukum Rani Sa of Rajasthan. A woman of grace, warmth, and boundless spirit-one who worships her parents with unwavering devotion. Vardan Singh Rathore Son of the King and Queen of Jodhpur. A young and successful businessman, ruthless and unyielding-one who harbors a hatred as deep as the desert sands for the Hukum of Rajasthan. A love entwined with vengeance. A battle of wills. Who will surrender first-the heart or the bloodline?
