MY SISTER-IN-LAW IS INTO ME
Ryu Thanzerkes has never been the daughter her parents wanted. Raised in wealth but rejecting the expectations that came with it, she lived life on her own terms dressing how she wanted, loving who she pleased, and never taking anything too seriously. But when her family arranges a marriage not for her, but for her brother she finds herself drawn into a world she's always avoided. She never cared about high society, never cared about arranged marriages. Until now. As secrets unravel and emotions stir, Ryu begins to question everything. Was she really free, or had she been trapped all along? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Note: This story was born purely from my imagination.

The distance between our hearts
The Distance Between our hearts "You can stay for a while, the boarding hasn't started yet" he said hoping that he can be with her a little longer. " I don't think I can stay any longer, I have to leave" Divi replied cold and aloof leaving no room for discussion just the way he was with her all these months of their marriage. She picked her handbag and cabin luggage in one hand and started walking towards the boarding gates. Suddenly he grabbed her wrist gently like he doesn't want to let her go and asked "when are you coming back" she stopped on her track and shuddered under his touch. "I'm not coming back to London again Vikrant" she took a deep breath before saying " leave my hand I need to go" He couldn't believe what he heard, his grip on her hand tightened and he asked "why?". Divi turned completely towards him and looked at him with disbelief and her eyes were red from crying for hours because her father was in emergency. "Why? You ask me why Vikrant? Shouldn't you be happy that finally I'll be gone? Isn't that what you wanted all this while ?" ************************** Vikrant Krishna- 27 years old,CEO of TRICON London branch, the best architect of his generation.Cold, serious, a dominating man who is the best at his work but also a person who forgot the meaning of love.

The Mage's Bargain Bride Part 1: The Gilded Cage
In a world where magic costs your very strength, my desperation was all I had left. To save my sister, I was ready to sell the last piece of my soul. I never expected the buyer to be him. Kaelan Valerius-the most powerful mage of his generation, the heir to the floating Spire City, and now, my fake fiancé. Our contract is simple: I play the part of his beloved for one year, and he clears my debts and saves my sister. No emotions, no attachments. It should be easy. But the exhaustion that claws at him after wielding his immense power is a vulnerability he shows no one else. And the tender way he looks at me when we're alone feels terrifyingly real. In this glittering court of lies and hidden magic, our fake love is the most dangerous spell of all. And I'm afraid I'm already falling for it. --- ElaraTerminé![Almost Always [EmiBonnie]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/399295089-256-k149823.jpg)
Almost Always [EmiBonnie]
It was supposed to be just a job. A gig. Two actresses playing a couple on screen, selling a story, doing the whole 'promo smile, red carpet pose, rinse and repeat' routine. Not the headlines, not the hashtags, and definitely not the feelings. But then, there was that kiss... What followed wasn't part of the plan. And definitely not in the script. But when two people spend enough time pretending to be in love, sometimes the acting starts to feel a little too real. What begins as fanservice turns into something harder to fake. The teasing stops being for the cameras. The tension stops being just good acting. And somewhere between interviews, rehearsals, and stolen glances, the line between "real" and "acting" blurs. It's slow and it's messy. It's full of feelings they tried to ignore. Something they can't name. Almost love. Almost honest. Almost Always. If you're into slow burns, accidental closeness, and that feeling when two people are clearly falling for each other but refuse to admit it... this one is for you... 📌✦ Author's Rights Notice ✦ This story is an original work.

SMARTBOOM - FORBIDDEN PASSION
"What are you doing in here?" Boom's voice. was low, clipped, but not loud enough to draw attention outside. Smart didn't answer. He stepped closer, then closer, and before Boom could retreat, Smart wrapped his arms around him from behind, slow, careful, but deliberate. Boom went rigid. His breath caught. Smart lowered his head just slightly, lips hovering near Boom's ear. "I just want to talk." Some ghosts don't haunt you. They wait for you to come back. ⚠️ Content Warning: 🔞 The story Contains mature themes, explicit content and references to a complex past.

After years of silence, Smart walks into a job interview hoping to forget the past but fate has other plans. One look at the man across the table is enough to bring it all rushing back. A name he thought he'd never hear again. A face he was never meant to see. A past neither of them has truly left behind. In a world built on secrets and appearances, what happens when buried truths start to resurface? And how do you protect what's forbidden... when it never stopped feeling right?

And somewhere between them stood a man who had built an empire in the shadows, carrying his own darkness while becoming the light in hers. Isha Kapoor had spent years running from a life that had only ever taught her pain. She believed she knew who she was, where she came from, and why she had been left with nothing but scars.

But when Isha enters his life, the man who never lets anyone close finds himself willing to destroy everything to protect the girl who believes she is impossible to love.

Until his search leads him to a girl who has no idea that she may be the person he has been looking for all along. As buried secrets rise, old enemies return, and the truth begins to unravel, three shattered lives find themselves connected by a past none of them remember the same way. One girl who never knew where she belonged. One brother who never stopped looking for home. And one man who would turn the world upside down to keep her safe. She thinks she is the darkness. He sees her as the light of his life. But some truths don't just change the future.
