RANISA-HIS FIRST WIFE
"I am yours just yours but I can't be with you anymore" ---------------------- "I married her to save her from the disgrace and shame that society would have thrust upon her," Abhirath said, his voice steady but tinged with an edge of desperation. Vedanti's eyes flashed with anger and hurt. "Oh, and if you had made her your sister, you could have saved her reputation then too, couldn't you, Hukum?" she retorted, using the formal title with a touch of bitterness. "But no, you just had to marry her, didn't you? No explanation, no warning, just a decision made without a thought for what it would do to me." Abhirath took a step closer, his face etched with regret. "Vedanti, you have to understand-" "No," she interrupted, her voice rising. "You don't get to stand there and tell me what I need to understand. You don't get to justify your actions now. You broke my trust, Abhirath. You shattered my heart. How can you expect me to believe anything you say?" The pain in her eyes cut him deeply. He reached out, trying to take her hand, but she pulled away. "I was young, naive," she continued, her voice trembling with emotion. "I trusted you with everything I had. And what did you do? You left me alone in the dead of night, forced me to fend for myself. You planned my parents' deaths, manipulated every part of my life. How can you claim to love me when you've caused me so much pain?" Abhirath's eyes filled with anguish. "Vedanti, every action I took was to protect you, even if it doesn't seem that way. I thought I was doing what was best-" Vedanti laughed bitterly. "Best for whom, Abhirath? For me or for your own conscience? You talk about protection, but all you've done is bring chaos into my life." --------------- PART ONE OF HIS WIFE SERIES✨❤ ------------Complete
HARIHARESHWARI 18 : धर्मज्योति
Shri Krishna, to save his citizens, establishes the magnificent city of Dwarka. Yet, even as he leads them to safety, the seeds of Adharma are sown. The Yadavas reel from the audacious theft of the Syamantak Mani, and the subsequent false accusations against the Lord himself. Dharma itself is thrown in disarray. The marriage of Draupadi to five Pandavas, while intended to uphold righteousness, blurs the lines of morality, leaving even the wisest sages grappling with the complexities of right and wrong. Awakened from years of oblivion, Krishneshwari too, bound by a promise from a previous life to aid Karn, is thrust into a moral quandary. How does one help someone who seems determined to make the wrong choices ? The warrior she pledged to support once is now entangled in wickedness, leaving her torn between keeping her word and the greater good. The irony, ofcourse, is not lost on anyone. Amidst this turmoil, Krishneshwari rediscovers her own love, Satyashree. The world witnesses the divine union of Krishna with Rukmini, Jambavati and Satyabhama, and celebrates the rise of Yudhishthir as the righteous king of Indraprasth.Complete

I'm here with a new book! Note: This story is inspired & has the characters from the masterpiece that is Mahabharat but not all plots match the epic. I have no intention of dishonouring any of the characters of the original great epic. This is but a peice of fiction meant for enjoyment.

Threads of Her Fate
She was fire once used to light a kingdom, now she blazes to burn it down. Betrayed by the husbands she stood beside, erased by the wives she protected, and forgotten by the very world she held together, Draupadi has lived through pain, injustice, and silence. But no more. Reborn with memories of her past life, this time she refuses to be a pawn in a game of dharma and deception. With Krishna by her side, the divine friend who remembers everything, Draupadi carves out a kingdom of her own - built on justice, love, and fierce loyalty. As the Pandavas' Indraprastha decays without her, as their wives scramble to uphold a crumbling illusion, Draupadi thrives. This is not the story of a dutiful queen. This is the saga of a woman who takes her destiny into her own hands. Of revenge served with divine laughter, of kingdoms lost and reclaimed, of love redefined, and of power unapologetically worn. In this life, she bows to no one. Not even fate.Complete

THE TALE OF TRINITY ~ DWARPAR YUGA
In an age when kingdoms rose and burned under the weight of ambition, three men bound by loyalty and friendship. Duryodhana, the prince who refused to be a puppet of tradition, reshaped his empire with iron will and a heart that hid quiet storms. Karna, the outcast-king forged in fire, walked the line between honour and rebellion - a hero born of silence and wrath. Ashwatthama, the ansh of mahadeva carried both his father's curse and his own fierce love, standing torn between dharma and devotion. Together, they challenged gods and kings, rewriting the fate that others wrote for them. But when love, pride, and power entangled their paths, even friendship, their greatest strength was tested. "THE TALE OF TRINITY" is a sweeping reimagination of the Mahabharata, of war, of brotherhood. Of men who dared to love fiercely, fight righteously, and rule differently.

Book 2 of PandavaNandini Trilogy | AgnijaaSuta - The Fire of Fire - Born "The course of true love never did run smooth." Bhanu knew the moment his heart found Suthanu that nothing would ever be simple. She is everything he didn't expect - fierce, luminous, and utterly convinced that love has no place in a life already claimed by duty and scarred by loss. The Dice Game took everything from her. Her family's legacy demands everything that remains. There is no room, she tells herself, for something as fragile as a heart. But Bhanu has never been good at walking away. Just as the distance between them begins to close, war changes everything. With the deadliest conflict of their age bearing down on their world and darker conspiracies threading through the shadows behind it, Suthanu and Bhanu find themselves pulled in opposite directions by the same brutal truth - duty calls, and it does not wait for hearts to be ready. Now both must face the same impossible choice. To fight for the world they were born to protect means risking losing each other. To reach for what they feel means turning away from everything their bloodlines demand of them. Because loving the son of Krishna when the world is burning is either the bravest thing Suthanu has ever done - or the most devastating. When duty and desire demand equal sacrifices, which do you choose - and what do you become if you choose wrong? Book 2 of the Mahabharata-inspired PandavaNandini Trilogy - a royal romance of war, wounds, and a love written in the stars but tested by fire. © 2025 Akshayaa MaheshComplete

choices she'll make
Choices She Made - A Tale from the Ashes of Epic She was never the one they crowned. She was the one they forgot... and she remembered everything. In a world carved by kings, queens, and gods, Aruna was not written into the legend. She was born of earth, not prophecy. Raised not in palaces, but in silence. Yet she watched as the Mahabharata unfolded around her-its heroes blazing, its heroines burning- and when the fire came for her, no one reached out. Betrayed by her sister, abandoned by her lover, erased by those she called family, Aruna did not fall- she vanished. Into forests. Into shadows. Into the kind of grief that does not break, but builds. Now, years later, her name is spoken only in whispers. A forgotten queen. A mother of storms. A woman who raised empires in exile, and children destined to return the silence once given to her. But Aruna is no ghost. She is watching. And the choices she made-once quiet, once forced- are no longer hers alone. A haunting, poetic reimagining of what lies beyond the pages of the great epic. Where queens falter, Aruna endures. Where legends end, her story begins. "Some women are not meant to be remembered by men. They are remembered by rivers, by rain, by the wind that knows the sound of betrayal." Will you remember her? Or will you, too, forget the woman who chose herself over fate? The past is not done with her. And Aruna is not done with the past.Complete
