"I don't want to become a mother." This line is a taboo for women in some parts of the world, and so was for Khusi Mukherjee. At the age of 25, independent and single, she wanted to live her life according to her rules. But everything changed when she met Bhaskar Goswami, a potential groom selected by her mother. They met, talked, liked each other and got married. Sounds like happily ever after, isn't it? But no, there's a small twist to it. Khusi never wanted to bear a child, and that's what made her a pariah in Indian society. Will Khusi be able to endure the pressure of her decision? Will she keep her head high and stick to her beliefs, or bend to the social norms? What will happen when Bhaskar comes home one day, with an absurd proposition and a revelation, that could change Khusi's life all together? She has to face the biggest challenge of her life, her husband's child. What new surprises and people awaits her, and would it be for good or will it shatter her forever?

Lavika Mehra had dreams far bigger than love, and Ishaan Agnihotri had walls far stronger than fate. They weren't meant to cross paths, let alone collide. But from the moment they did, the universe never stopped pulling them back together-through unspoken confessions, stolen glances, and a connection neither of them could ignore. He tried to resist. She tried to move on. But love is never that simple. Between the weight of responsibilities, a past that refuses to fade, and a fate that keeps testing them-will they surrender to the inevitable or let destiny slip through their fingers? Because some loves are gentle. Some loves are kind. And some? Some are written in fate, impossible to escape.

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

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.

Billionaire 's Irresistible Love by honey_bee_writes

Ava Shetty, a girl with an enchanting aura, had the power to sprinkle happiness wherever she went. With her protective older brother and loving parents by her side, life seemed perfect. However, fate had a different plan for her. In a blink of an eye, everything she held dear was snatched away, leaving her stranded in this vast and unforgiving world. Fast forward five years, and Ava has transformed into a formidable businesswoman, the driving force behind Shetty's empire. People label her as rude, bossy, and arrogant, but little do they know that beneath that tough exterior lies a vulnerable child yearning for love and affection. On the other hand, we have Aditya Roy Kapoor, the indomitable Emperor of the business world. With his cold demeanor and striking handsomeness resembling a Greek God, he is the epitome of success. Women swoon over him, but he remains disinterested, consumed by his company and indifferent to romantic pursuits. But what happens when fate brings these two strong yet fragile individuals together on a project? Join us on this journey to witness how a resilient woman and a seemingly cold CEO find love in each other's arms. **** FIRST FEW CHAPTERS MAY SEEM BORING BUT TRUST ME, GIVE IT A TRY The story is unedited.(A little caution for y'all) Started on - 23rd May, 2023 Some milestones: #9 in love at first sight on 6|07|23 #10 in Indian on 6|07|23 #1 in India on 28/12/23 #1 in Desi on 28/12/23 #2 in Billionaire on 28/12/23 #8 in love on 28/12/23
