The Unspoken Vows by writersspirit22
34 parts Ongoing
This story revolves around Arjun who is pressured by his family and political advisors to get married to improve his public image. A girl Meera, from a modest background, is chosen because of her 'simple' reputation, believed to be the perfect quiet political wife. Neither of them is thrilled, but both agree for their families sake. The wedding is grand but devoid of emotion. But love has a way of creeping in, even in the coldest places. As they navigate a life built on unspoken expectations, they find themselves caught in a storm of high emotions. Meera, who was meant to be a shadow, refuses to disappear. Arjun, who was never meant to care, finds himself drawn to the fire in her eyes. Together, they endure the relentless storms of politics, personal battles, and the pain of a love that neither of them dares to name. There are no grand confessions, no promises spoken aloud. But in the spaces between anger and understanding, between distance and longing, something fragile yet unbreakable begins to grow. This is not a love story of easy romance-it is a love forged in suffering, in resilience, in the quiet strength of standing beside each other through every heartbreak. It is a story of unsaid words, of love that is felt rather than spoken. It is the story of their unspoken vows.

He came to me and I didn't move away this time, he closed the space between us as my back was still pressed against the wall, his hand cupped my face and he planted a kiss on my lips. "This... whatever it is between us," he whispered and deepened the kiss... Strictly 18+ If that's your thing, dive in!

But as she steps into the unknown, she finds herself caught between the expectations of who she *should* be and the person she's beginning to uncover beneath the surface. Her journey of self-discovery takes an unexpected turn when she meets Mercedes, her eclectic, Afrocentric, crystal-loving roommate who introduces Sariah to a side of her culture she's never fully explored. Mercedes' unapologetic embrace of her black roots and spiritual practices forces Sariah to confront the parts of her identity she's kept hidden or ignored, opening her eyes to a deeper connection to her culture. At the same time, Sariah finds herself paired with Drew, a mysterious and artistic classmate, for a challenging art project. Initially, Drew seems like just another classmate-but as their collaboration deepens, Sariah begins to see him in a different light. With Drew, she finds herself questioning more than just her art; she begins to wonder if she's ready to open her heart and take a leap into something more than just a creative partnership. Sariah navigates the messy, beautiful, and transformative process of learning who she really is, embracing her culture, and discovering that sometimes, the path to self-awareness is more about the people we meet than the answers we seek. A tale of friendship, love, and self-empowerment, this coming-of-age story is a celebration of what it means to find your roots while forging your own identity.
