In a world where love was meant to be the foundation of family, one marriage stood as a stark reminder of what happens when that bond dissolves into emptiness. It was a union devoid of affection, a cold partnership that cast shadows on everyone it touched-the mother, the father, and their child. Each day within those walls echoed with unspoken disappointments, threatening to unravel their very existence.
...............................................................
After 18 long years, someone finally reached out to me, stirring a blend of hope and anticipation within my heart. This was my moment-the chance I'd longed for, a window of opportunity to share all that I had to offer: my dreams, my unwavering love, and my willingness to embrace life anew. I felt prepared to forgive, ready to rebuild trust, and eager to seize that elusive second chance. Little did I know, this was just the beginning of a journey that would test the very essence of my readiness.

~Trust Me ~
"I want a divorce." And just hearing him say that my whole world that seemed to revolve around him stopped. Gathering myself I barely managed to speak in a voice that even I could not recognise. I couldn't comprehend anything going around me. "Wh..hy?" As soon as the words left my mouth he threw the file and the photographs spread across the floor. And those photographs had me in compromising positions with not one but several men. Looking at those photos I looked straight into his eyes. Disgust and hatred. The only emotions I could see. Taking a deep breath I composed myself and tried to keep my face void of the emotions I felt at that moment. Hurt and immense pain. If he didn't trust me then he has no right to see me vulnerable too. "Is this the only reason why you want to divorce me? No other except this?" It was foolish of me to ask him but I had to make sure. Also for me trust comes before love. If he doesn't trust me I don't even want to save the relationship. "Is this not enough you whore? What else can I expect from a slut and a gold digger like you! I knew it from the start that all you showed was just a facade. Your innocence, kindness, it was all fake. I just don't believe how can I be so dumb." Was I hurt? No I was broken beyond repair. My heart ached. I felt like I was seconds away from collapsing. I had far exceeded the limit of hurt and pain. I was so powerless in that moment that I couldn't even fight with him. Love makes you strong. I have heard and felt that countless times but they always forget to mention what comes after that. Love makes you weak too. I couldn't shout at him because I loved him. But I had to be brave. For myself. ************************************************** Is love enough for two people to be together or is there something more important than love? This is story of Xander and Sophie who loved each other but still couldn't be together. Because more important than love is trust. © All rights reservedComplete
Arranged by DESTINY~~
AARUSHI's POV: Panic grips my heart as the villagers close in, insisting that I am now bound to a life I never chose. Their faces, painted with fervor, become a blur as I try to gather my thoughts. "No, I can't marry him," I protest, my voice trembling. I glance around for support, feeling the isolation of the moment. Just as despair threatens to consume me, I catch a glimpse of Him. REYANSH's POV: I see the fear in her eyes, and it ignites a protective instinct within me. I can't let her face this alone. "She's already married," I declare, surprising her. The crowd murmurs, doubt clouding their faces. But I press on, "To me." The weight of my words hangs heavy in the air. I feel the pressure of their scrutiny, but I know I must stand firm for her sake. This isn't just about tradition; it's about saving her from a life she does not want. ............................................................................... AARUSHI's POV: I'm torn between gratitude, disbelief and grief. How did I find myself in this situation? His calm demeanor eases my anxiety, yet I can't shake the fear of what lies ahead. This isn't just a farce; it feels so real, and my heart races at the thought of becoming someone's wife, even if it's just for the moment. REYANSH's POV: I glance at her, seeing the flicker of hope amidst the confusion. I vow to protect her, no matter the outcome of this ceremony. What started as a chaotic twist of fate could turn into something beautiful. For the first time, I find myself wanting. Wanting a women, just to myself.

HOPE IS A GENTLE FLICKER
"Once upon a time, there was a special child who never aged. To protect it from harm, I hid it within myself, until one day I forgot it was there." What happens when your child is taught to hate you? When Sienna falls in love, she embraces her partner's young daughters, Adele and Nina, with an open heart. But her dream of a happy, blended family is fragile. Unseen by them, a campaign of manipulation has already begun, its goal to poison the girls' hearts against the father they adore.

Yet, Hope is a Gentle Flicker is ultimately a story of courageous love. It is a testament to getting lost in order to be found anew, and to the unwavering commitment of a father and stepmother who choose to love in the face of rejection, protecting that fragile flicker of hope day after day, year after year, waiting to be a family again. A gripping and emotionally charged story for anyone who believes in the resilience of the human heart.
Rejected Love {COMPLETED}
My mate. So weak. So pathetic. I have a weak and pathetic mate. I thought as I looked at her in disgust and displeasure. Just like me when I was human. She is human! I don't want a mate. I don't want a weak and pathetic mate! She can't fix me! She's nothing! Screw this! My thoughts were going berserk with the rushing flashes of my past. I tucked my hand through my hair roughly in an unsuccessful attempt to stop the replay of those horrible evocations. I laid her on the small grass patch at the side of the deserted road. She was half-conscious, so possibly she could hear me... "Hey!" I said, jerking her pale face gently. Blood was covering half of her face but she was still looking beautiful in the moonlight. The sparks weren't going unnoticed and I reminded myself that it was just the mate-bond. I was determined in my decision and there was no way I was going to change it. The girl opened her eyes slightly and with that, I did what I thought was right at that time. "I, Kane Wilson, reject you as my mate!" I said, with all the strength I could have mustered in my miserable state of emotions and with that, I left her there, feeling extreme pain in my heart. But I pushed that pain aside and ran from there in my ultimate inhuman speed. Away from her! Still feeling the Rejection Pain. *~*~*~*~*~*~* He rejected her when she didn't even know what he meant for her. And after nine years, when he met her again, he found himself craving for her, seeking her attention, her love. He had fallen for her... with no return. But would she accept him now?!
