In the bustling halls of high school, where every corner hides a secret and every glance sparks a new adventure, Rudra Shukla-the disciplined, straight-laced head boy-has his life perfectly planned. That is, until Arunima Sharma, the carefree, mischievous rule-breaker, enters his world with her infectious smile and rebellious charm. She's everything he doesn't believe in: love, fun, and spontaneity. But as fate throws them together, the walls Rudra has carefully built around his heart begin to crumble. With friends who are just as chaotic as they are, secrets, pranks, and unexpected moments of tenderness, will Rudra fall for the girl who refuses to follow the rules, or will love remain the biggest distraction of all? One thing's for sure-when these two collide, it's going to be a whirlwind of drama, laughter, and maybe, just maybe, a little bit of Ishq Wala Love.

Fire & Ice : A saga of trust and devotion by authorlaviii

"Rudra Malhotra naam toh suna hoga ?" Rudra is the epitome of charisma-outgoing, charming, and unabashedly playful. He has an infectious laugh and a quick wit that makes him the life of the party. His flirty nature often leads to playful banter and spontaneous adventures. Despite his carefree attitude, there is an underlying complexity to his personality; his charm often masks an inherent loneliness stemming from unresolved heartbreak. His laughter is often a façade to cover the pain of his past. "Never trust a man with desire" Ruhanika Mehra is short-tempered and strong-headed, not afraid to speak her mind and stand up for herself. She is determined and driven, always wanting to achieve her goals and dreams. However, she also has a soft side to her, especially when it comes to her loved ones. She can be fiercely protective and caring towards them. ""Rooh!" The silence was deafening. No response, no movement. I snapped open my eyes, scanning the room frantically. That's when I saw it - the bloodstain on the bed sheet. My mind reeled as memories of last night flooded back. "Rudra, make me yours." Ruhanika's whispered plea echoed in my mind. "You complete me, Rooh." My own words haunted me. I clutched my head, feeling like I was losing my grip on reality. Where was she? I spun around, my gaze locking onto the dressing table mirror. A note was stuck to the glass. I snatched it, my hands trembling. "We can't be together." Ruhanika. I stared blankly at the note, my mind reeling. Why would Ruhanika leave without a word? What will happen when a girl who never believed in love and a boy who always craved for true love will collide with each other in such circumstances which forced them hate each other at first sight but still they can't deny the attraction,lust and desperation towards each other ?

An Innocent Crush ✓ by HiKaniskh

Book I (First-Love series) DHRUV SEHGAL, a twenty-three-year-old final-year medical student, is smart, good-looking, funny, sometimes rude, and most importantly, very strict when it comes to studies or other important work. KIARA TIWARI, a sixteen-year-old Class 10 student, is kind of clueless academically but is very pretty, crazy, funny, and a happy soul. Her only problem is she doesn't care much about her studies. Upon seeing her results, her parents decided to enroll her in a tuition class where her cousins also attend. Little did she know that her life was about to change forever after meeting her tutor, Dhruv Sehgal. Their story began with mismatched personalities... Let's see how it's going to end... ******** "Ouch! Why did you do that?" she asked, rubbing her head where he lightly smacked her. "It was a mosquito. Mar jati kat leta toh," he replied, a smile appearing on his handsome face. Kiara frowned but soon a smirk formed on her lips. "Oh, you care about me so much...?" she teased, causing his faint smile to disappear instantly. "No, if you die, I would have one less student. And if there's one less student, the fees would decrease, right? Why would I care for you? Silly."

HIDDEN LOVE (Part 2 of SECRET LOVE) by bhaukalqueen

The same school, the same hallways-where once a teacher and student shared a bond, Karishma Singh and Haseena now stand reunited after years apart. Karishma, always composed and insightful, had long known that her feelings for Haseena went beyond mentorship. But bound by a marriage to another woman for reasons only she knew, she kept her emotions buried. As a student, Haseena had fallen for Karishma too, but upon learning of her marriage, she chose silence. Now, years later, she returns as an intern under Karishma's mentorship. Though time has passed, the unspoken love between them never truly faded. Working side by side once again, they find themselves caught in a delicate dance of unresolved emotions and undeniable attraction. Can they finally confront the love they've kept hidden, or will their circumstances pull them apart once more? (A/N:- It is recommended to start with my story SECRET LOVE, as it forms the main story, with this story continuing as Part 2.)

AN AKASH THAPA FANFIC !!! Aarohi Sehgal has always been a force to be reckoned with on the dance floor. Her passion and dedication have led her to *India's Best Dancer*, the most prestigious dance reality show . This was her chance to shine-until she discovers that her choreographer is none other than Akash Thapa, her old school-time frenemy. Aarohi and Akash's rivalry was legendary; they pushed each other to be the best, but their fierce competition often crossed into personal territory. Now, years later, fate has thrown them together on the biggest stage of all. Akash, now a celebrated choreographer, is as talented and infuriating as ever, and being paired with him reignites old tensions and sparks something entirely new. As they work together, their old rivalry gives way to a complicated mix of emotions-trust, resentment, and an undeniable attraction. With the nation watching their every move, Aarohi must navigate the high stakes of the reality show while confronting her unresolved feelings for Akash. In this intense world of dance, where every step counts, can Aarohi and Akash move beyond their past to create something extraordinary? Or will their history as frenemies sabotage their chance at victory-and at love?
