He was the army's most disciplined soldier-sharp, silent, and unshakable.
She was a firestorm in disguise-curious, stubborn, and full of questions.
When Aarohi Sharma-sharp-tongued, fearless, and far too curious-lands an internship at an army base, the last thing she expects is him.
Captain Veer Rathore.
22. Decorated. Respected. Unreadable.
They argue. They clash.
But the more she breaks the rules, the more he begins to break.
What starts as friction burns into something neither of them can control.
But love in uniform has a cost.
And in a world of secrets, orders, and sacrifice...
One of them will have to walk away.

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
WHISPERS BETWEEN THE LINES (Veiled desires x Broken fate)
In a city where dreams glimmer like the lights that never sleep, two souls moved through life unaware of the invisible thread tying them together. Abhira Malhotra's world was a canvas of laughter, late-night playlists, and courtrooms imagined in her dreams. Draped in silks and sunshine, she carried joy in her stride and rebellion in her smile. A daughter, a sister, a singer hiding behind the name 'Aashi'-she was everything the world expected and yet something more, something secret. Miles away, in the quiet corners of discipline and duty, Arjun Rathore's life beat to a different rhythm. Scarred by a tragedy that stole his childhood, he built his world around promises-promises to protect, to serve, to never let history repeat. With a soldier's resolve and a brother's love, he moved forward, not knowing fate was already scripting a detour. Between them stood a world of contrasts-wealth and wounds, music and metal, laughter and longing. And yet, the universe, with its wicked sense of humor and silent grace, had already spun its web.

PROFESSOR HUSBAND
She was a student who believed in freedom. He was a professor who worshipped discipline. They had nothing in common-except the one thing they couldn't escape: marriage. Aarohi Pandey, bold, brilliant, and unapologetically rebellious, never imagined her future would be tied to the man she despised most-her arrogant Biology professor, Aashutosh Kulkarni. He was everything she hated: serious, rigid, and too full of himself. She was everything he couldn't stand: impulsive, loud, and always late. But when their families force them into a marriage neither of them wanted, they strike a deal-live as strangers for one year, then part ways. No feelings. No expectations. No strings. But life under the same roof begins to blur lines. Between shared silences and stolen glances, between jealousy and unspoken care, love begins to bloom where hate once grew. Will they hold on to their pride-or surrender to the feelings they never planned to have?Complete
In his light , she blooms
Anaya Sharma is brilliance wrapped in silence. At just twenty-seven, she's a celebrated surgeon-admired for her flawless skills and feared for her icy demeanor. To many, she is arrogant. Untouchable. But what they don't see is the price she pays to save lives-sometimes even at the cost of her own. Arjun Rathore is the sun to her storm. A charming, sharp-witted criminal and constitutional lawyer, Arjun's presence in a courtroom is unstoppable. No one dares challenge the man whose words bend justice and who never bows to power, especially political corruption. But even his influence falters when the system he fights turns its back on his greatest weakness-his sister. When Aarushi Rathore becomes the victim of a politically fueled accident, no hospital is willing to treat her. Doors close. Fear spreads. Hope begins to fade. Until Anaya steps forward. Knowing the consequences, she chooses courage over comfort. Defying the very system that protects her, she risks her career-and her life-to save Aarushi. Her selfless act plants the first seed of admiration in Arjun's heart. As Aarushi heals, so does something else. Arjun begins to break through Anaya's carefully built walls, slowly melting the ice around her heart. In late-night checkups, courtroom battles, and whispered confessions, their bond deepens. What starts as respect becomes warmth, and warmth becomes something neither of them expected-love. But in a world where power silences truth, their love is a rebellion. Together, they must face threats, political enemies, and the ghosts of their pasts. Because some love stories aren't written in peace. They're written in courage, fire, and quiet defiance. "She saves lives with a scalpel. He protects truth with words. And together-they dare to love in a world that punishes the brave."

She has never bowed her head. And she never planned to start. Avyansh Singh Rathore is control personified... calm, calculating, untouchable. A man who doesn't argue. He decides. And when he decides to marry her, it wasn't a proposal... It's a command. A marriage forced by his will. Protested by her fury. What begins as defiance turns into a battlefield of pride... sharp words, colder silences, and a tension neither of them can ignore. To her, it's a cage she refuses to belong in. To him, it's a bond he refuses to break. But the real question isn't why he married her. It's what he knows... that she doesn't. Because sometimes, the calmest men hide the most dangerous secrets. This isn't a soft love story. It's a battlefield of hearts, a collision of souls... and a storm trying to outrun the only man steady enough to stand in it. ❥˙ [ 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 2 ~ 𝐢𝐧 "𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐠𝐚" 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 ] ˙❥˙ 𝐀𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐜𝐨𝐦.![ISHQIYA [ON HOLD]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/397768147-256-k854480.jpg)
