Vardhaan : Her only Obsession by roopwrites11

"He was never meant to be hers, but she'll break the world to make it so". ~ ~ Kashvi Sharma ~ ~ She has never begged. She has never known the taste of rejection, the sting of defeat, or the ache of longing-until she saw him. She isn't the kind of woman to fall. She hunts. She takes what she wants, and she never asks twice. But Vardhaan? He is the only thing she has ever truly desired. At 23, she is a name spoken in whispers, the leader of an empire built on blood and power. Beautiful. Ruthless. Unstoppable. A queen who bows to no one. ~ ~ Vardhaan Tripathi ~ ~ A man who isn't meant to be owned. A man who builds empires with a signature and destroys legacies with a whisper. A man who walks through life untouched, uninterested, and immune to the idea of love. At 27, Vardhaan has spent years crafting his empire, turning his wealth into a legacy untouchable by any force. He has been chased by women, feared by men, and respected by those who know he does not play games. ° ° ° And yet, Kashvi is a storm he never saw coming. A woman who doesn't understand the word 'no.' A woman who doesn't just want his love-she demands his soul. "You don't love me, Kashvi." "I don't love, Vardhaan. I claim." What starts as a dangerous obsession turns into a war of control. He refuses. She persists. He resists. She ensnares. She chases, he resists. She controls, he defies. But when the lines blur and Vardhaan starts to fall-will it be love, or will it be war? " Not all love stories are soft. Some are dark. Some are deadly. "

The Last Devadasi: A Love That Defied Tradition by SindhooraVel

~ 2023 ~ When Yuktha, a free-spirited journalist, agrees to replace her friend on an assignment in the remote village of Periyoor, she expects a few quiet days documenting rural life. But what she stumbles upon is a world frozen in time-a village ruled by Chinna Marudhaiyar, where the devadasi system still thrives in secrecy. Among the temple dancers is Simhavahini, or Vahini, a woman of mesmerizing beauty and quiet sorrow. Dedicated to the temple as a child, her life has been one of unwavering devotion, dictated by customs she never chose. But beneath the graceful dancer lies a heart yearning for something more. Yuktha is captivated, first by Vahini's artistry, then by the woman herself. What begins as curiosity soon turns into an undeniable pull-one that Vahini, despite her fears, cannot ignore. But in Periyoor, love is not hers to claim, and desire is a crime with dire consequences. With faith, love, and survival at war, Yuktha and Vahini must fight for the right to shape their own destinies. But Periyoor does not let go of its own so easily, and the cost of defiance may be greater than they ever imagined. "The Last Devadasi" is a story of forbidden love, rebellion, and the courage to break free, set against the haunting beauty of a world that refuses to change.
