Finding My Ways by Elysian_wini

Alizeh D'Souza is a young woman trying to find balance in the chaos of her life. A dedicated intern in Cost and Management Accounting (CMA), she's buried under deadlines and the high expectations of her family. Her once-passionate love for dancing is now a distant memory as she struggles to live up to the demands of her career.

But it's not just Excel sheets. I've been shadowing senior consultants, attending client.

Guilted: Wars Against The Past (Editing) by froward

The things I knew that were once unethical, were bound to be saintly. The dreams I dreamt once upon a time, seemed to be an epitome of nightmares. The heart I thought I stole long ago, always belonged to someone else. The crimes I have committed all my life, became a handful of lessons that I ought to learn. The world I looked up to once, became a mortal enemy of mine. The family I thought would disown me, fought my battles for me. The life I never imagined I'd live, sadly it became a life I'd rather live than die. Lastly, the guilt I carried in me for the each and every second of my living, was a poison spreading and gradually banishing everything around me. Clearly, I was bounded by the past! Never have I imagined for the galaxy of guilt in me to steadily transform into a matter of great; Love. No, it wasn't for my dead sister, or for the woman I once claimed to love, or for my money-grubbing father, or even for the woman who was destined for me. Majestically, it was for Someone who I never ever thought it would be for; My Maker. Well, it's mind-blowing how the ugliest of matters bring out the most beautiful of articles! -Guilt is a gift from Allah, warning you that what you are doing is violating your soul.- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Started: 22/12/2017, 7:15 pm.

His Dream World by authourShreya

In the heart of a bustling city, two souls navigate life with guarded hearts, shaped by experiences that taught them caution, restraint, and self-reliance. Shreya, a devoted government employee, lives quietly within the safe walls of her family. Cheerful and warm at home, she is a portrait of joy with her parents and younger brother-but outside, she remains reserved, careful with her words, and wary of trust. Her dreams of family are quiet and measured: a son to cherish, a daughter to nurture, and a husband who respects women and understands the value of love and loyalty. Yet, past disappointments keep her heart closed, her imagination torn between hope and fear. Reyan Singh Mewar, a formidable business tycoon with generational wealth, walks a life of discipline, dominance, and responsibility. Loved by few, bound by duty, and admired by many, he hides a deep longing for companionship behind a facade of authority and control. Once deceived by love, he refuses to risk his heart again, yet he cannot deny a quiet desire to experience family life-the laughter of children, the tender bonds of a wife who listens, respects, and stands beside him. Fate brings them together in a carefully arranged alliance-a marriage built on duty, respect, and measured expectations. Both are determined not to ask for more than what life requires, yet both harbor private dreams of warmth, connection, and joy. The story unfolds as they navigate the delicate balance between responsibility and emotion, between past scars and future possibilities. Will love bloom in the space between silence and duty? Can they allow themselves the freedom to dream together, or will they remain trapped in their own caution? Through misunderstandings, small joys, and quiet moments-like the simple act of shaping clay on a pottery wheel-their journey questions whether hearts closed by life can truly open, and whether two people can create a shared life richer than the sum of their individual fears and hopes.

Veiled In The Starlight by itsauthorshifa

"Kya aap humse nikah krna chahengi?" (Would you like to be in my Nikah?) Faraj looked straight into her eyes, his voice steady yet impossibly soft Zubia's breath caught. For a moment, everything else faded-the world, the noise, the past. Just his words, hanging between them, delicate yet unshakable. __________________________ She was just another intern. He was the doctor everyone feared. She was quiet, but not weak. He was strong, but not whole. She wanted freedom. He wanted control. But fate had other plans. When Dr. Faraj Ahmad-a man known for his discipline and detachment-finds himself entangled in the life of Zubia Fatima, an intern with secrets in her eyes and fire in her soul, something begins to crack. A stolen glance. A lingering silence. A battle of wills wrapped in unspoken words. She gets under his skin. He unsettles her in ways she can't explain. A heart that never wavered. A girl who never trusted. And a journey that neither of them saw coming. Some loves are whispered in stolen moments. Others are written in fate. This one? It's both. --- A story of love, longing, and the undeniable pull of destiny. Are you ready to witness a love that defies reason? Neither of them wanted love. But fate had already decided otherwise. A slow-burn story of resilience, longing, and a love worth fighting for. Because sometimes, the best love stories are the ones we never see coming. #2 halal[21/05/25] #6 blame[27/05/25] #5 fictionalmen[27/05/25]
