She broke the rules. Now she's trapped in a world that runs on power, secrets... and him.
After a scandal threatens her father's perfect image, seventeen-year-old Arohi Mathur is torn from her home in India and exiled to Elaris International Academy-an elite boarding school filled with polished uniforms, whispered alliances, and masks that hide more than just faces.
Here, survival means silence. Obedience. Disappearing.
But Arohi refuses to play by their rules.
Then she meets Rayan Frost.
He's cold, brilliant, untouchable-and assigned to watch her. The son of her father's closest ally. The boy who sees straight through her defenses and makes her blood boil with just a glance.
They hate each other on sight.
But hate is just the beginning.
Because behind Elaris's iron gates, nothing is what it seems. Every student has something to hide. And the deeper Arohi digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Especially when it's tied to the boy she's forbidden to trust-and destined to destroy.
One broken girl. One haunted boy.
A school built on lies.
And a bond that could ruin them both.

I've Got My Eye On You ✔️
[𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐫 𝐗 𝐏𝐡𝐃 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫] Arohi thrived in darkness-sharp, untethered, unwilling to surrender her heart. A PhD scholar who played by her own rules, love was nothing more than a fleeting indulgence. Tathagata carried his past like a ghost-brilliant, brooding, and bound to silence. A history professor with ink-stained fingers, a cigarette between them, and a sitar that sang only to the solitude. She never expected to see him again-the man she once adored, now a stranger wrapped in mystery. Their reunion is electric, a pull neither of them can deny. But he carries baggage, shadows of a life she never knew. And Arohi? She isn't the same girl who once adored him from afar. As passion collides with the ghosts of their past, they must ask themselves: Is this fate giving them a second chance, or are they simply chasing a memory that no longer exists? A story of love, loss, and the choices that define us-will they rewrite their ending, or are they doomed to repeat it? -------- Mature Content Warning: Intended for mature audiences.

When 16-year-old Roshni Sharbin is suddenly transferred to Silverline High School after her father's job relocation, she finds herself thrown into a world that feels more like a battlefield than a school.

But amidst the isolation and anxiety, she catches the attention of Dirar Malik-the popular, artistic boy with secrets of his own. As Roshni struggles to find her place, she begins to uncover the hidden tensions beneath Silverline's polished surface: bullying masked as tradition, competition turned toxic, and friendships with invisible strings. Through it all, her bond with Dirar grows, offering her moments of solace and hope. But when a scandal threatens to tear the school-and their connection-apart, Roshni must decide who she wants to be: a girl who plays by the rules or one who fights to change them. A story of resilience, growth, and first love, The Ties That Tempt explores the strength it takes to stand alone, and the courage it takes to stand together.
