After the death of her beloved grandmother, Megha, Kashvi inherits an antique pocket watch-an heirloom passed down through generations. On the night of Megha's funeral, she has a vivid, almost supernatural dream, where Megha pleads with her to find the man who killed her. But her final words hold a chilling warning: "The Arcanum Order will come for the watch."

Determined to uncover the truth, Kashvi begins investigating, but strange things start happening-eerie coincidences, shadows that shouldn't be there, and the feeling that she's always being watched. Then, she accidentally activates the watch-and discovers its impossible secret.

The watch isn't just a family heirloom. It is an artifact of immense power, tied to an ancient secret that has been haunting her family for generations. The Arcanum Order, a hidden organization that safeguards dangerous relics, claims the watch was never meant to be hers. Megha was supposed to surrender it to them, but she didn't. And now, they want it back.

But there's more. Kashvi learns that the watch doesn't just track time-it can bend it. It holds the power of time travel, but every time she uses it, she loses part of her own life in return.

As Kashvi and her best friend Anshuman search for answers, they uncover whispers of betrayal, forgotten history, and a murder that was never meant to be solved. The deeper they dig, the more they realize Megha's death is just the beginning of something far darker than they ever imagined.

The Order is watching. The murderer is still out there. And time is running out.All Rights Reserved

The SunDowners In | The Dagger and the Rose by WendyyWolfe

Action Adventure Series • Book 4 Every relic is a doorway. Every shadow hides a name. And every Sunbound heart must learn the price of carrying legends too long. From the desert's whispers to the catacombs' bells, the story does not end, it deepens. The Tiger led them to the Dagger, and the Rose waits with thorns still wet with blood." 🌹 When something evil and ancient plunders the tomb of Sainte-Rosamonde, a convent where shadows once moved like assassins, the Sunbound are pulled into a legend older than they can fathom. The artifact is no mere treasure- it is the key to binding or unleashing a power buried in blood and silence. For Callahan, it is more than a mission. It is a vow. Once, in a hidden cloister of France, a woman named Rosamonde Ducos; nun, resistance fighter, assassin, saint, called him The Dagger. He called her The Rose. Before her death, she bound him to a promise: to guard the relic with his life. Now her ghost cries out to him, and he knows what it means-her trust has been betrayed, and her sorrow is not at rest. 🌹 But as the Sunbound race time itself across catacombs and castles, they discover something more chilling: The relic is not just tied to Rosamonde. It is knotted into the very curse that took Tatyana, the woman Callahan lost to his own stubborn silence. And if they cannot recover it, both women's ghosts- and Callahan himself- may be consumed. Together, Kaida, Noey, Atlas, and Valli must face the labyrinth of Callahan's past, where assassins wore habits, where lovers became legends, and where shadows still hunger for flesh. Because the relic is not only a prize. It is a mirror. And when the Sunbound look into it, they will see the truth: This time, the fight is not to save a relic. It is to save him. It was beautiful. It was damning. It was his. 🌹 The Dagger and the Rose.

Moments not Mine by celestique_78

Esme was the last person to see her best friend alive. Now, everyone-friends, family, even the police-suspects her of a crime she didn't commit. Desperate to prove her innocence, she uncovers a hidden digital world her best friend had kept secret: a web of fake accounts, cryptic messages, and untold clues. One account, in particular, becomes her lifeline-a place where her best friend confided, joked, and dropped hints about her life. Here, Esme meets someone unexpected; actually two someones: two mysterious guys who help her piece together the puzzle, but neither of them knows what the other looks like. Every conversation is charged with curiosity, trust, and tension, as they navigate messages, hidden posts, and the shadows of a life Esme never truly knew. In a world where everyone is suspect and nothing is as it seems, Esme must follow the digital breadcrumbs to uncover the real killer-and maybe discover a connection she never expected.

What begins as a search for justice slowly unravels a far deeper conspiracy-one buried in legal systems, corrupt power, and shattered families. As the mystery deepens, so do the quiet moments between them... the kind that feel like love, but aren't. The kind that could be, but never will be. Because in a world where nothing is accidental, even time lies.

Because sometimes the mind is the most dangerous weapon of all... In a world built on trust and lies who is really pulling the strings? And the question remains: when the final mask falls, who will you believe?

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. "
