Born from darkness. 。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆𝗔𝘃𝘆𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗵 𝘅 𝗔𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗮⋆。゚☁︎。⋆ Akshita Rai Singhania was once a lively and cheerful teenager, living a life filled with music and affection. Unexpectedly, she fell for her friend, Avyansh Singh Rathore, experiencing a love that felt pure and genuine. However, fate had different plans. Accused of a crime she did not commit, Akshita faced betrayal from someone she considered a soul sister, causing her immense loss. In a single day, she lost everything: her music, her love, her trust, her friend, and her dignity. Yet, this wasn't the end. A transformation occurred, turning her from Akshita Rai Singhania into THE AK-an unstoppable woman who conquers rather than rules. She had become untouchable, darker than ever, commanding a presence that even darkness would yield to. Ten years later, she crossed paths with Avyansh, now a ruthless figure. But the love she once held had morphed into something far deeper, a more dangerous intensity-vengeance. Her sole purpose became to inflict torment on those who had tormented her years earlier. Unbeknownst to Avyansh, he was becoming obsessed with her, an obsession without limits. This was no fairy tale, but a twisted desire-a forbidden connection that would ultimately unravel them both. It wasn't just love; it was a forbidden love. ᴅɪᴠᴇ ɪɴᴛᴏ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴛᴏʀʏ ᴏꜰ ᴀᴠʏᴀɴꜱʜ ᴀɴᴅ ᴀᴋꜱʜɪᴛᴀ
HER BETRAYAL HIS REVENGE  by _Daisydreamer_

In the dimly lit corridors of Rathore Mansion, shadows whispered tales of love turned venomous, of trust shattered and souls broken. The grandeur of the estate was a stark contrast to the darkness that enveloped its inhabitants, particularly Aparajita, whose life had become a nightmarish symphony of hatred, abuse, and betrayal. Once the epitome of grace and strength, Aparajita now found herself caged by the very man who had vowed to protect her. Abhimaan Singh Rathore, her husband, had transformed into a relentless captor, driven by a sinister obsession. His manipulative tricks had woven a web of conspiracy so tight that even Aparajita's innocence couldn't save her from his clutches. Standing over her frail figure, Abhimaan's eyes glinted with a dark satisfaction. He leaned in close, his voice a chilling whisper that sent shivers down Aparajita's spine. "You thought you could escape me, Aparajita? That you could find solace and freedom? No, my dear, you are mine. As long as I breathe, you will remain caged, a prisoner of my will. Every breath you take, every tear you shed, will remind you of your place-here, under my control, where you belong." The mansion's walls echoed with the weight of his words, sealing Aparajita's fate in a prison far worse than any physical chains could ever bind. In the heart of luxury, she was ensnared in a dark tale where love was a distant memory, replaced by a sinister dance of power and possession.

Adika ki Kahani: Ek Pyaar ki Dastaan" 📢 This story is NOT for everyone. If you're looking for a soft, sweet, vanilla love story, this is NOT it. This story delves into dark romance-obsession, power struggles, psychological turmoil, and a dangerously possessive hero. 🔥 Vanraj Thakur is not your typical romantic hero. He is intense, dominating, and you may even find him problematic. His love is ruthless, consuming, and inescapable. ❌ If you cannot handle themes of forced proximity, Stockholm Syndrome, or morally grey characters-this story is not for you. ❌ If you are here to judge without understanding the genre-do not read even a single letter. ✔ But if you love dark, intense, obsessive romance with raw emotions and high stakes-welcome to the journey. This story is still unfolding, and everything is not as it seems. 📖 Read at your own risk. "Ahhhhhhhhh... Vaaann...raajjjjj... ahhhhh..." Adika cried out in a mix of pain and pleasure. "Haan, mera naam lo, Adika..." Vanraj growled, his lips latching onto her softness, claiming her with unrelenting passion. "Dheere... ahhh... dard ho raha hai... ruk jaiye... ahhh... maa..." Their story is an intoxicating mix of passion, pain, and possession. Vanraj doesn't ask for love-he demands it. He doesn't seek permission-he takes what's his. And Adika, caught in his storm, finds herself drowning in the intensity of his obsession. 🔥 MATURE CONTENT WARNING! 🔥 This story contains explicit smut, dark romance, physical & emotional abuse, betrayal, and intense passion. Strictly 18+ only! 💔 Tropes You'll Love: 📍 1980s rural India setting 📍 Grumpy × Fragile girl 📍 Slow burn, possessive romance 📍 Love at first sight 💕 📍 Dark, twisted, and dangerously addictive 📍 Secrets that could shatter everything 📍 A happy ending, but at what cost? 🚫 DO NOT COPY OR IMITATE MY WORK.
