Ladies and gentlemen,
This is not a ghost story. At least, not in the way you expect.
This is a story of love-not the kind that blooms in daylight, but the kind that lingers in the spaces between shadows. A love that was never meant to be, yet refuses to be forgotten.
There are no screams here, no haunted houses or cursed objects. Only a quiet sadness that clings to the mist, a longing that drifts between the living and the dead.
If you choose to step into these pages, don't just read-feel. Let every word settle under your skin, let the silence between sentences whisper to you. Let the weight of the night sink into your bones.
Because some stories are not meant to be HEARD or READ.
They are meant to be FELT.
----
She's There... In the Mist is a dark, melancholic romance set in the 1990s. Arjun, a weary government clerk with no family to return to, stumbles upon an old, forgotten graveyard while taking an unfamiliar route home. Among the crumbling tombstones, he finds one with its name scratched off. That night, he meets Maya-a mysterious girl who seems as lost as the grave she lingers by.
Drawn to her warmth despite the eerie silence surrounding the graveyard, Arjun begins visiting every night. Their bond deepens, but something feels... unreal. Maya only appears after dusk. No one else seems to notice her. And the more Arjun tries to understand her past, the more the mist thickens around her truth.
Who is Maya? Why does she wait by the nameless grave? And why does Arjun feel as if he was meant to find her? As love and mystery intertwine, the answer may free them both-or doom them forever...

Paschyatap ~ Repenting Thy Sins
"Stop following me! Just let me go and leave me in peace!" she pleaded, struggling against his unrelenting grip. "I won't. Not today, not ever. Not after finding you again," he said firmly. "I don't belong here. This isn't my place. Let me go," she begged, desperation in her voice. He shook his head. "You've always belonged. Since the beginning of time, we were meant to be together." "You'll never convince me," she snapped. "I won't be part of this farce or let you treat me like an object without a will of my own." "It's not a farce. It's as real as the sun, and you will be part of it-whether you want to or not. Your only desire should be our companionship," he declared. "Please," she whispered, one last plea as her hand inched toward her waistband. "The only thing left to do... do it for her, if not for love. " he ordered. "For love?" she murmured, shaken. Then her expression hardened. "But love was never an option," she spat, her voice dripping with disgust-before she struck with full force. It wasn't supposed to end like this. Anwesha-once a soldier by choice, not birth-had embraced duty for her nation. But one failed mission led her to the dark waters of the Ganges. Caught in a whirlpool, she accepted death like an old friend. Yet, she didn't die. She woke up in another timeline, but here, she didn't belong. A misfit, a lone coal in a chest of gold. She wasn't chosen by fate, nor favored by the gods-just an accident struggling to return home. But every path back was closed. Trapped, she resolved to be a silent observer. Yet fate had other plans. She crossed paths with the Scions of Kuru, a dynasty shaping history itself. She hadn't intended to get involved, but now she was entangled in their world, for better or worse. Can she survive in this era, or will she find her way back? More importantly-who is she, really? And why her? After all, nothing in this world, or beyond it, is mere coincidence. • Book I ~ Stuck In Time Series •
