They say time heals all wounds. But what about the ones that were never truly forgotten?
Kritika Mehra built herself piece by piece after her world fell apart. Once madly in love during her college years, she believed in forever-until forever walked away without an explanation. The boy who made promises under starlit skies became the man who disappeared without a trace.
Now, years later, Kritika is no longer the same girl. She's fierce, independent, and successful-living her best life in London, far away from the shadows of her past. But destiny plays its wild card when she returns to India for her brother's wedding... and comes face to face with the one person she never thought she'd see again.
Kabir Raichand.
The boy who once held her heart is now a powerful CEO, heir to a business empire, and every bit as intense as she remembers. Except now, he's hiding his own secrets, carrying the weight of a truth that could change everything.
As old wounds resurface and sparks begin to fly again, Kritika and Kabir are forced to confront the past they buried. Amid family celebrations, sangeet nights, stolen glances, and emotional breakdowns, a love story long lost begins to bloom once more.
But will pride, pain, and the scars of the past keep them apart?
Or will this wedding-meant for someone else-be the one that finally brings them together?
A slow-burn romance filled with emotions, longing, laughter, heartbreak, and the beauty of second chances.

I flinched at his harsh voice, tears forming in my eyes. "For the world, you will be my wife, but in reality, you are nothing to me." My last hope of mending this relationship shattered into pieces. "Listen very carefully: never dare to raise your voice at me. Understood?" I nodded slowly. "And only answer me if I ask you something. Is that clear?" His tone was dangerously low. Feeling scared, I nodded without looking at him. "Look at me when I'm talking to you." He put his finger under my chin and raised my head. His eyes were full of arrogance and cruelty. My vision blurred with each passing second. His grip on my chin was strong and painful. "Now answer," he ordered in a husky voice. "Ye-Yes," I replied in my shaky voice. ☆_____☆ A girl who believes in true love and soulmates. A boy who has lost his faith in love and soulmates. He is fire. She is ice.

Beautiful disaster (completed)
"I can consider your request," he finally replied, causing her face to light up with hope. The weight of her desperation seemed to lift momentarily, replaced by a glimmer of possibility. But then, Kabir paused, making her heart sink. "On one condition," he added, his voice low and serious. The room suddenly felt suffocating, as if the air had been sucked out, leaving only tension and uncertainty. "Finish what we started the other day." His words hung in the air, heavy with unspoken desires and unfinished business. Kiara furrowed her brows, confusion evident on her face. "What do you mean?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly. Her mind raced, desperately trying to piece together the fragments of their shared history. Kabir leaned in closer, whispering into her ear. "Spend the night here," he said, his words sending a shockwave through her body. Her eyes widened in disbelief, unable to digest what she was hearing. The room seemed to spin, blurring the boundaries between reality and fantasy. She had never expected this twist in their complicated relationship. Then she remembered a few months ago, during a moment of vulnerability, they had shared a passionate kiss. It had been a fleeting moment, a stolen connection that had left her breathless and yearning for more. She had come to Kabir to mend things between him and her best friend, Maya, but now he was suggesting something completely unexpected. Her mind raced, torn between the fear of crossing boundaries and the intoxicating allure of the unknown. Should she give in to her desires, risking everything she held dear? Or should she walk away, preserving the fragile equilibrium of their lives? story will updated every weekComplete

Wounded King || 18+ (On Hold)
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.

"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.
