Dev, a young man in the shadows of the college's surveillance system, becomes captivated by Aarya's defiance. With every glance from afar, he's drawn deeper into her world, even as she remains unaware of his watchful eyes. But as their paths intertwine, hidden secrets, rivalries, and dangerous truths begin to surface.

💍 His to Heal - A Bride Bound by Pain, Saved by Love by priyankagupta629

Aanya Seth has survived a life that tried to break her. She learned to stay quiet, to hide her wounds, to keep her heart soft even when the world wasn't. She does not expect love. She does not look for it. She only knows how to endure. Then she walks into the nightclub. And Arjun Rathore sees her. He is a man known for silence. For power. For a heart locked behind walls no one touches. But one look at Aanya - her soft eyes, her quiet strength, her gentle pain - and something inside him shifts. Not slowly. Not gently. He falls with intensity, with certainty, with a devotion that borders on worship. She is not his to control. She is not his to fix. She is his to protect. His to cherish. His to heal - and to be healed by. Because sometimes, the strongest love is the one that saves you without trying.

SHADOW'S OF US by CatBerry__

In the heart of a small, restless town where power whispers louder than love, two souls collide - not by fate, but by mistake. Aarohi, a strong-willed college student with a quiet fire in her eyes, believes love can still mend what the world has broken. Raghav, a young politician shaped by discipline and shadows, was never meant to believe in love at all. He was raised to command, not to feel - trained by a father who taught him strength through silence, loyalty through pain, and survival through control. When their worlds meet in the narrow streets of Suryapur's bustling market, a single glance changes everything. It isn't gentle, nor kind - it's dangerous, magnetic, and wrong in every possible way. Their story unfolds between power and vulnerability, politics and passion, silence and surrender. Raghav's love is quiet, unspoken - seen only in the way he watches, protects, and punishes himself for feeling at all. Aarohi becomes the only thing that unsettles his rigid order - the one risk he cannot reason away. But love in their world isn't simple. It's forbidden - tainted by family, ambition, and the choices that define them. As Raghav's control begins to crack and Aarohi's world starts to fall apart, they'll have to decide what matters more: duty, pride, or the dangerous pull between them. "Shadows of Us" is a dark, emotional tale of forbidden love - of two people bound by power, guilt, and the quiet ache of wanting what they can never fully have. A story where love is not soft - it's survival.
