Daksh didn't argue. He didn't rush to soothe her or deny her pain.

Ishani turned away, her body tense, voice barely above a whisper but sharp with hurt.
" it feels like the universe made a cruel joke - giving me you instead of the one I wanted."

Her words landed heavy, and inside, Daksh felt the sting like a thousand invisible wounds. But he swallowed the pain, forcing himself to stay calm.

"Ishani," he said softly, stepping a little closer, "please... just hear me out. I never asked for this. I only wanted to protect you from being broken even more."

She flinched but didn't turn around. "Protect me? How can I feel protected when everything I dreamed of is shattered?"

His voice grew gentle but urgent. "Maybe I can't fix the past. But I'm here - not as a replacement, but as someone who wants to stand by you."

She clenched her fists, her breath hitching. "I'm tired, Daksh. So tired of pretending this is okay."

Daksh's heart ached, watching her fight with herself - wanting to break but refusing to fall. "I'm not asking you to pretend. Just to give me a chance... to be here."

Then Ishani whispered, voice raw and trembling, "I'm not ready. Not yet."

Daksh nodded slowly, the pain clear in his eyes but his resolve unshaken. "Whenever you're ready... I'll wait."

||Daksh Sehgal - the elder son of the prestigious Sehgal family. Intelligent and responsible, he carries the weight of his legacy with quiet strength. With devilishly handsome looks and a calm, kind soul, Daksh is more than just a charming face - he's a protector at heart, willing to put others before himself.||

||Ishani Raichand - a gentle soul wrapped in grace and innocence. Soft-spoken yet strong, she is a girl who carries the weight of the world on her fragile shoulders without ever letting it show. Her heart beats for her loved ones, and she endures every storm with silent courage. For her father's reputation, she's willing to sacrifice her own dreams, her own voice  even her own happiness.||All Rights Reserved

Woven From Broken Threads by ishkawritesss

Two lives. One binding thread. A marriage built on everything but trust. Aadrika Rai has learned the hard way-trust is a luxury she cannot afford. Caught in a web of expectations, secrets, and betrayals, she knows that survival means keeping her heart locked away. But when an arranged marriage ties her to Reeyansh Dixit, she finds herself at the mercy of a man who is everything she fears-powerful, perceptive, and dangerously close to unraveling her carefully guarded truths. Reeyansh never believed in second chances. Betrayed by love once, he refuses to let the past define him-or his new wife. In a world where loyalties shift like the wind, he chooses logic over emotion, control over chaos. But Aadrika is unlike anyone he has ever met. Strong yet fragile, distant yet unyielding-she challenges his beliefs at every turn. In a marriage that began as a compromise, will trust ever find a place? Or will the broken threads of their pasts weave a future neither of them expected? What happens when two broken souls, bound by a marriage of convenience, discover a love neither of them ever believed they deserved? A story of strength, second chances, and love that defies expectations. ◉ ◉ ◉ ✿ Aadrika Rai: The only feeling I truly crave and fear to experience: Love. And here I am, wedded in an arranged marriage without being given any option, having my worst fears come true-of not being truly wanted, loved, or being let down again! The only expectation I have from my ARRANGED WEDDED HUSBAND is to be treated with respect. ✿ Reeyansh Dixit: I don't believe in love-the betrayal I have faced has crushed me too deeply. And here I am, wedded in an arranged marriage-or more like a business arrangement for me. The only emotion I can give her: Treat her with respect.

Shattered Love - Punarbharosa by DSK2001

"Mr. Raichand..." she whispered, her voice trembling. "Aditya..." he murmured, eyes burning into hers. "Say it." He pulls her close in a spin, her hair whips against his jaw, making him smirk as he tightens his hold on her waist. His palm slides slowly from the curve of her back to the side of her thigh as he guides her movements, making her shiver but forcing herself to stay composed. She swallowed, lifting her chin, meeting his gaze. Something shifted. They were no longer husband and wife bound by arrangement, but two souls locked in a storm. "Aditya.." Aaradhya whispered, her voice seductive. Aditya inhaled a sharp breath his hold tightning on her. Their steps grew sharper. Her leg hooked around his thigh in a daring cross, her slit revealing flashes of skin that made his jaw clench. His hand gripped her back, dangerously low, daring her to protest. Every turn, every press, every snap of their heels told a story anger, desire, unspoken hunger. The music built to its peak. Aditya spun Aaradhya one last time, then caught her in a deep, breathtaking dip. Her hair brushed the marble floor, her lips inches from his. The crowd erupted in applause, but they didn't hear it. Aditya pulled her upright, holding her tight, chest to chest. His lips hovered by her ear. "Mrs. Aditya Raichand," he whispered. "An arranged marriage. Two broken souls. One uncertain future." 👨‍⚖️Aditya Raichand - Once the heart of every room, a boy full of life, laughter, and love. Now? Cold. Distant. Ruthless. A man who buries kindness beneath layers of silence. He trusts no one-not even himself. 👩‍⚕️Aaradhya Malhotra - Once a lively, fearless dreamer who spoke her heart out. Now? Quiet. Guarded. Broken. Her smiles are rare, her past a wound she never talks about. Forced into an arranged marriage by their families, their worlds collide.🤵‍👰‍ They don't believe in love. They don't believe in healing. And they definitely don't believe in each other.

The Tied Knots by Idealized_writes

The mandap was glowing softly under strings of marigold and fairy lights, but inside, it felt oddly calm-like the world had quieted down just for them. Ishani sat with her head slightly lowered, her hands resting in her lap, fingers nervously tracing the edge of her bridal bangles. Her heart thudded louder than the wedding drums. Ansh glanced sideways, catching the tiny, nervous movement. Leaning just enough so only she could hear, he whispered, his tone playful but quiet, "Relax... Sirf ek lifetime contract with guaranteed lifetime warranty. Pressure nahi lene ka" ["Relax... It's just a lifetime contract that has a guaranteed lifetime warranty. So, no pressure."] She bit back a smile, her cheeks flushing despite the chaos around them. Without looking at him, she murmured softly under her breath, "Kam se kam, sign in karne wala bharosemand dikhta hai" ["At least the co-signer looks dependable."] Ansh let out a small, amused breath-half a chuckle, half a sigh. In that fleeting second, the noise faded again. The crowd blurred. The rituals continued. But they sat there, two strangers about to become something more, sharing a secret, subtle moment between the vows. And somehow, neither of them looked away first. [Peep in to know more :>]

Avni : His Silent Light by wherelove_bleeds

He held up his hands, trying to sound casual, but the sight stopped her cold-blood smeared across his fingers, dark and fresh. "Relax, it's nothing," he said smoothly, his voice trying to soothe, but her heart pounded in stark disbelief. Her eyes widened, fixed on the crimson stains, a silent scream caught in her throat. Horror dripped from every glance. "Nothing? You killed him," she whispered, voice barely steady, trembling with a mixture of fear and accusation. "You're a murderer." He scoffed, a cold shadow flickering in his unreadable eyes. "Don't insult me wifey. I'm above that." The weight of his words pressed down like a guillotine as she steadied herself, voice sharp with defiance. "I'll tell everyone. I won't marry you." A slow, cruel smile curved his lips as he leaned in, his breath ghosting against her ear like a deadly promise. "Will you? Go ahead-tell everyone. I'll destroy everything you hold dear, just like your telling would destroy mine. We'll go down together." He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a chilling whisper. "And as for not marrying me... oh wifey , you don't get to choose. You'll be mine-whether it's in a wedding dress, or buried in a legend". He wasn't supposed to pull her in-didn't even understand why he was drawn to her. She wasn't the most beautiful, but something beneath the surface called to him. A ruthless heir haunted by betrayal, he never let strangers close... yet he craved to keep her. ☆☆☆☆ This story is not standalone. It is based on a character from another story. It's about a girl who has been overshadowed by her sister's beauty but has managed to keep herself from turning bitter. She has suffered enough-now it's time for her to find happiness. The first book is Khushi: His Lawless Love.

Ishq: A Never Ending Love story by Asranki

"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.

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

Rakshash Aur Rajkumari (The Devil And The Princess) 🔞✔ by Storyteller_Shibangi

"I am so sorry, Ambika," Rudraksha choked out, his voice thick with emotion. With trembling hands, he withdrew, his eyes downcast as if he could not bear to meet her gaze. "I... You don't deserve this," he continued, his words laced with anguish. "You don't deserve any of it..." As he spoke, his eyes, red-rimmed and wild, finally met hers. His hair fell in disheveled locks across his forehead, giving him an untamed appearance. He was caught between his emotions and his fierce possessiveness. "But I can't let you go... you're mine, right?" he said, voice softening as he searched her eyes for answers. Of course, no one would dare lay a finger on me except you, she thought, her eyes hardening. But before she could respond, he moved with surprising swiftness, wrapping her in a tight embrace. The feel of his strong arms around her was startling. Rudraksha was reduced to tears, it was a peculiar sight-his colossal frame, usually a source of strength now trembled with each sob. The man whose muscular build and stoic demeanor exuded an almost intimidating confidence, now seemed so fragile, so human. Instinctively, Ambika returned his embrace, her fingers gently stroking his back in an attempt to soothe him. "I can't leave without you, Ambika," he sobbed, his voice muffled against her neck. "You're too precious to me. I love you so much... I love you, more than I love myself." ••• "Stay away from me. You have no idea what I can do to you," he warned, his voice dripping with desperation and a hint of madness. "I am Rakshas, Ambika. I am a Rakshas!" His eyes blood shot, dripping with tears. ••• "If you are a thorn," she continued, her words soft but resolute, "I would happily open my arms to get hurt. If you are a heartbreaker, then my innocent heart is waiting for you to break. My hands are waiting for the awaiting hands of sorrow."
