Some loves feel like gravity. Others, like war.
Abhishek was the kind of beautiful that came with bruises. Older. Louder. Reckless. He didn't love her gently-he loved like a storm tearing through everything soft inside her. He knew just how to pull her in, make her laugh, then leave her bleeding. And still, she stayed-because he made the pain feel like passion, and the control feel like care.
Then came Aditya. Quiet. Unassuming. Constant. He didn't try to save her, but something in his presence made her feel worth saving. There were no declarations, only glances that lingered too long and silences that meant more than words. He never tried to be her peace-but he was.
She never meant to be caught between two universes-one that destroyed her, and one that saw through the wreckage. But hearts don't break clean, and sometimes the ones we run from are the ones who know us best.
Torn between obsession and affection, between the boy who burned her and the one who simply stood still-watching, waiting-she must decide: Will she keep chasing the fire, or finally choose the quiet pull of the stars?
A haunting, tender, and deeply emotional story of bruised hearts, unspoken love, and the kind of connections that never really fade-I Choose Me is not just a romance. It's a reckoning of what love becomes when pain feels like home.

Raaz e ishq: prem ki deewangi
"Main galti nahi thi uski zindagi ki... Lekin phir bhi sabse mehngi saza main hi bani." ********************************************************** She didn't plan to fall in love with him. And he... was never allowed to feel anything back. But what do you do when the one person you're not supposed to love... becomes the only one who truly sees you? "Tum meri student ho." "Aur aap... meri adhoori dua." Aleezey was light - young, fragile, and full of dreams no one ever took seriously. Prem was silence - older, emotionally burnt, and chained by guilt he never named. Their story wasn't written in stars. It was carved in shame, stitched in stolen glances, and hidden between classroom walls. Everyone warned her. He warned her. "Main tumhe barbaad kar dunga agar tum paas aayi." "Phir barbaadi hi meri manzil sahi." This isn't a sweet love story. It's a forbidden obsession - one that crosses every line, questions every rule, and dares to exist in a world where it shouldn't. But when love starts feeling like your only truth... Can you really walk away from it? Some feelings aren't meant to be right. But they're impossible to forget. This is their Raaz-e-Ishq - And it will stay with you long after the last page.
Ishq: A Never Ending Love story
"I love you..." I whispered, mustering every ounce of courage. He stood before me, silent-his eyes clouded with confusion... or was it sorrow? We were alone on the empty road, under a moonlit sky. But his face held no joy. Did he not love me? Then why he make me feel in that way. "I love you, Triple S..." My voice trembled as tears blurred my vision. "Stop it," he said, his voice heavy. With a sigh, he turned away, walking off into the night. "I really love you!" I shouted, desperate. "I swear, I'll never leave you... not even after death!" . ........⭐........ Ishq: A Never Ending Love Story College was supposed to be about bunking classes, late-night Maggi, and maybe... a few harmless crushes. Not about falling for the guy who looked like he belonged to another world - one where laughter had long faded and memories were locked away. She was chaos in sneakers - a first-year with too much energy and a smile that could light up storms. He was silence in human form - a final-year mystery, always at the back of the class, always alone. They weren't meant to cross paths. But then again, love never asks for permission. Aashi is hiding something. A secret that could erase everything. And Shreyansh? He's already lost too much to risk feeling again. But what happens when she starts forgetting... and he starts remembering everything they built? This isn't just a love story. It's a war between memory and emotion. Between holding on... and letting go. Seven stages. One unforgettable journey. Some loves don't need forever - just the right moments. Read Ishq - because some stories live on... even when people forget
Wounded King || 18+
His gaze locked into mine, intense, unwavering. "I need a verbal answer, little rose." I could hardly find my voice, but it escaped in a trembling whisper, "Y-yes... Abhii." In the next breath, he pulled my flush against him, his hand gripping the back of my neck. His lips found mine, gentle only for the first second before deepening. His kiss was commanding, urgent-sucking on my lips as if he'd never let me go. I tried to match him, to kiss him back, but his force, his hunger was overwhelming. All I could do was yield, surrender, let him take control. Wounded King is connected to the world of Shattered Silk, but it is a complete story on its own and can be read without reading the first book. Abhishek Rana never wanted a wife - only a name to offer someone with no one left. When he finds Naina, orphaned and alone, marrying her feels like fulfilling a duty... nothing more. "Not a single chapter wasted-every page pulls you deeper into a slow-burn that won't let you go." A slow-burn, age-gap romance between two broken souls forced into an unwanted marriage - and a love neither of them saw coming.Complete

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.

REDRAWN BY FATE
Once, there was a boy who loved with all his heart. A love so simple, so pure - the kind that blooms in school corridors and ends with promises written in notebooks. He was a boy who longed for the love he lost - a father gone too soon, a heart half-empty. And when she came, he finally felt safe. But safety turned into fear... Fear of losing her, fear that his love itself was a curse. His love grew possessive - and her wings broke beneath it. One day, she left forever... And with her, she took the last piece of him. Years later, he married - not for love, but for duty. A woman who deserved the world... but was tied to a man whose heart belonged to a grave. Now, two souls live under one roof - one haunted by the past, and the other punished for a love she never received. This isn't a tale of love found - it's a story of love surviving - in silence, in distance, in pain.Complete
