A short story defining the stages of love. 

Inara Khan was petulant: stubborn, short-tempered, blunt, and a middle child. She had her life planned until she stumbled on a betrayal by one she had never considered a possibility from. 

Life threw a curve ball to her in name of Rahil Sohail, a smart man who wasn't all smart when it came to his emotions. He was famous for less words, more glares, and definitely a straightforwardness she appreciated. 

He was considered to be less from others, disrespected for what he didn't have until he stood for her respect. 

For, respect was all she wanted. 
✷ ✷ ✷
Rahil Sohail had worked his entire life towards reaching his destiny, unknown to the said destiny being a mischief maker and the daughter of the man he had came to know at his weakest. 
This marriage was supposed to be a promise, an arrangement to honor his father's best friend until his daughter became more. 

She was a storm, brewing and ready to rearrange his entire life. 

Not that he would want her to stop.

MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE "You didn't trust me" Guilt wash over her when a tear cascades down his eye. He is crying for the first time. She is the sole reason behind his tears. "I am sorry" She lowers her eyes in shame. He steps closer to her gripping her forearm with his left hand. A shiver rolled down her spine not due to their proximity but due to the tension vibrating between them. She looks up and her heart crack in response as betrayal brims his eyes. "You claimed to love me but you couldn't trust me. Is our love so fragile ?" His words cut through her soul. The question felt like a mock. Question on their relationship.

Forcefully Married ✅ by SanaKazi

"You should have told me before that you weren't interested in me" I yelled at my so called husband Samad. Tears were rolling down my cheeks. "Jawariyah please try to understand" Samad said but this time I won't. "From two years only I am trying to understand..... Only I am the one who's compromising... Why not you?" I questioned him. I know I was the one who was being harsh this time but that's enough. "Jawariyah.. You are not the only one who's compromising..." He yelled as his jaws clinched and he pulled me closer.. Closer to his body.. His chest... His heart.. *********************************** They both are married to each other but are totally diff: She's sweet, kind, beautiful, caring and afraid.. Afraid of anger afraid of loneliness... Scared of darkness... and most importantly she's weak! She can't stand up fo herself. He's arrogant, rude, angry, bitter, a psychopathic lover... He's all what she hated.. He's rich.. He's handsome.. If you're looking for sweet romance this is not it. Mistakes.. Misunderstandings.. Miseries.. All these three words would shatter their life.. Their love.

The Love That Hurts (#Billionaire's Obsession) | ✓ by _purplesky12

"𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝒑𝒂𝒈𝒆, 𝑵𝒐𝒕 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔" •••• "Don't lie, Amisha. I'm sick of these lies. And if you're so sure that you didn't cheat on me, then fine, let's move on to the next step,prove me you didn't cheated on me" he said, and she frowned in confusion. He realized she didn't understand his intention. "Get intimate with me, tell me that you love me, and I'll believe you. I'll believe that you're telling the truth," he said, or more precisely, made an offer. She couldn't process his words. Her heart broke as she listened to him. •••• His expression darkened, pain flickering in his eyes. "Kya kami reh gayi thi, Amisha? Sab kuch diya tha tumhe... apna dil tumharee kadmon mein rakha tha. Fir bhi tumne yeh kiya?" His words came out in a choked whisper, his composure slipping. (Was there anything I didn't give you, Amisha? I gave you everything... I placed my heart at your feet. And still, you did this) Tears gathered in his eyes, though he struggled to maintain his demeanor, reminding himself he couldn't afford to be soft. "You're hurting me," she whispered, her voice cracking slightly. His eyes flickered with guilt, but he didn't let go. "And what about the hurt you caused me?I loved you, Amisha. I gave you everything. My heart, my soul... everything. And still, you didn't choose me." Tears welled up in her eyes. "You should have looked into my eyes once, it was always you Vivaan. But your jealousy... your obsession... it's destroying us."

Lack of Trust by Byheart1970

"I was not flawed, your faith was flawed. If You had faith in your heart for me, I wouldn't have to bear all that I did because of you" she said looking towards him who was sobbing infront of her. "I was very sad and angry at that time. All the evidence was against you and when I saw that condition of my mother I gone mad."

Zanjeer by Reen2303

Meher never had marriage in mind when she returned home after a year away. But when family duty speaks louder than desire, resistance becomes a luxury she can't afford - and just like that, she finds herself bound to Asad Ahmad Khan. He's everything she didn't expect - gentle, patient, and impossibly kind. A man who seems too good to be true... and maybe he is. As days slip into months, Meher begins to question everything she once feared about love - Could this really be the kind of marriage people dream of? But not all stories unfold in warmth. Some settle in like a chill in the air - unnoticed at first, until it's far too familiar to ignore. It isn't always love that lingers - sometimes, it's the weight of what it leaves behind. A silence not born of absence, but of restraint - a hush that presses in like invisible manacles, slowly tightening around the spirit. Until even breath feels bound, movements measured, and the heart quietly manacled... by something far heavier than love. By something far more haunting, Something as menacing as a Zanjeer.
