Silent promises in broken times is a story of love, loss, and the delicate balance between destiny and survival. In post-Partition India, two sisters, Mahira and Rokeya, are caught in the turmoil of their divided world, struggling to rebuild their lives after a violent religious riot. Haunted by a devastating past and forced to navigate a fractured society, they cling to each other for survival. Mahira, the protective older sister, dreams of a better life but is tethered to the shadows of her nightmares, while Rokeya, with her fierce loyalty and determination, faces a new chapter of her life at college.

Enter Srinivasan Naidu, a young army captain navigating the weight of his family's expectations, his own ambitions, and the scars of his past. Torn between a career in the military that he never wanted and the dream of diplomacy he can't forget, Srinivasan is searching for a path that feels truly his own. When fate brings Mahira and Srinivasan together, their lives intertwine in a story of personal battles, deep bonds, and the courage to face a future that feels uncertain.

This is a tale about forging your own path in the face of overwhelming odds, about standing up for what matters, and discovering the power of connection in the most unlikely of circumstances. Will Mahira and Srinivasan overcome their fears and find solace in each other, or will their pasts continue to haunt them, keeping them from the futures they deserve?

The Veils Of Rivalry (ON HOLD) by _unhingedauthor_

What happens when two souls, set on each other's destruction, collide? "I will destroy her till she regrets her own existence." "I will wait till he regrets his decisions." A marriage bound not by love, but by vengeance. Shivansh entered into matrimony with Samriddhi, not as a husband, but as a punisher. His mother's tragic death had left him shattered, and in his grief, he sought justice-or perhaps retribution. Convinced that Samriddhi was the key to uncovering the truth, he vowed to make her suffer. But as he walked the treacherous path of revenge, the lines between hatred and love began to blur. He never anticipated the depth of her pain, the secrets she carried, or the silent battles she had fought long before he entered her life. Slowly, against his will, he found himself drawn to her-not just to her beauty, but to her strength, her resilience, and the sorrow hidden behind her eyes. But was love enough to erase the wounds of the past? Could Samriddhi ever forgive the man who married her with the intent to ruin her? And was Shivansh truly punishing the right person, or had he been blinded by his own misconceptions? As buried truths unraveled, they found themselves entangled in a web of lies, betrayals, and long-forgotten sins. Every revelation brought a new storm, testing the fragile bond they had unknowingly built. Did they find their happily ever after? Maybe. Was Love easy for them? Certainly Not. Love was never meant to be easy for them. Twists awaited at every turn, shadows from Samriddhi's past loomed over them, and the ghosts of their choices refused to fade. Dive into their world-a tale of vengeance, love, and redemption, where nothing is as it seems, and every secret has the power to change everything.
