The son who fulfills all his responsibilities of being the eldest, taking care of his father who is slowly losing out on his memories of him. The elder brother to four siblings. Of all roles, the one of being an elder brother takes the crown. Being the elder one he had always been responsible for his younger siblings.

So she never complained about life not treating her well and accepted whatever life threw at her. Widow and a single mother, Ruhaani wants to give her daughter the best of everything she can.
Will Aadarsh and Ruhaani find a permanent place in each other's lives? Heart seems to be off limits.

Just Hold My Hand
This story is not just about a male lead and a female lead. It goes beyond that, everyone is the main character of their own story. No one here exists merely as a side character. Every individual carries their own emotions, struggles, choices, and journey, all of which deserve to be seen and appreciated. Rather than following a single storyline, my narrative unfolds through multiple perspectives. Lives intersect, relationships form and break, and people grow in ways they never expected. Some bonds will feel strong and unbreakable, while others will slowly fade with time. Not every story has a happy ending. While readers often expect ending filled with happiness, life does not always work that way. Some journeys end beautifully, while others end painfully, and some remain incomplete, leaving behind unanswered questions. But that does not make them any less meaningful. The journey itself, the moments, emotions, and connections holds more value than the ending. This story is shaped by imagination, possibilities where things could have been different. Yet, even with these imagined paths, not everything leads to a perfect ending. Sometimes, even when the route changes, the destination remains the same. Characters may not always get what they deserve, and situations may not lead to happy moments. This unpredictability reflects the complexity of real life, where right and wrong are not always clear, and decisions often come with consequences. my first story explores emotions,love, loss, confusion, hope, and change. It shows how people deal with these emotions differently and how those differences shape their journeys. Some will hold on, some will let go, and some will remain caught in between. In the end, Some chapters will bring comfort, some will hurt, and some may leave you thinking long after they end. But every story matters, because a story does not truly end until it is meant to (or author doesn't want it to). to find the answers, let's dive in the story.
Claiming His Unwanted Bride
"I want a divorce." For Anaya, those words were meant to be her declaration of freedom. For three years, she has been nothing but a responsibility to her husband, a final promise made to her brother. But the man who claimed her out of duty has no intention of letting her go. Knowing he will never release her legally, Anaya takes matters into her own hands and disappears, leaving behind the marriage that was always a cage. She builds a new life, a fragile existence where she can finally be herself. But the past is not done with her. Years later, their paths cross, and the battle begins again. He doesn't look at her with longing, but with the same cold, possessive gaze that says she is still his. The man who once claimed his unwanted bride out of obligation now seeks to reclaim her out of sheer will. The fight is no longer about a legal document, but about her very identity. Can she outrun the past that refuses to die, or is she destined to be forever bound to the man who would never let her go?
