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.
The heart comes last...untold love

But what would happen when Hayat leaves one day with a note for Kayan; leaving him completely shattered. Will Kayan let her go or find the answers his heart deserves? The only heart which was beating for Hayat and her love. "Don't try to find me because I'm going to India and getting married in 2 weeks, please carry on with everything, Kayan. You are the best anyone could get, but I wasn't so lucky to have you. You are perfect, but...I have to leave. Get married to some girl as soon as possible if you ever loved me." -Hayat Zaeef (Under editing)

The Solar Princess
Kingship, the ultimate power in the ancient world. To the Egyptians, it was a power passed through the female line. Only the husband of the Solar Princess could be king. A recently discovered tomb in 1883 opens a glimpse into the depths of political ambisions and power plays from centuries before. When the gods dabble, the horrors of the past have a way of coming back to haunt the world once again. ********** This is a short story. I hope you like it. I would love to hear feedback on this. I set this as mature just to be sure. I don't give overly explicit details of violence or sex, however, the story does delve into topics of a more mature nature. It is also a work of fiction that I wrote. Please do not copy any part of this story. I do not own the rights to the photos posted. Those are just images I found online and the rights go to the original owners. Thank you. As for the names of the characters, I pulled all of the names during the historical periods from actual history. So, I am sorry if the names are odd or difficult to follow, it is set during a specific reign and the historical people around the royal palace. I really enjoy writing from actual history as much as possible when I do delve into history. If people like this, I may try to work on a longer story of a historical romance in the Ottoman courts.
