Andhera is a broken kingdom. 



They had a good king, once. But the burdens of ruling were too much, the cost of his failure too high. And so he left them, as did the rest of the royal family. Since then, Andhera has been hard, even impossible, to survive in. Those with magic are shunned and treated as outcasts, and those without ties to the noble family are ignored and treated as less than dirt. 

Something has to change, and all the people know it. But things have been like this for so long that even hope is dead to them. The people of Andhera are set in their ways, accepting of their fate. Surely there is nothing better for them than this? 

However, one man will arise to restore Andhera to the nation she once was. One man, who dreams of restoring order and peace from the way things once were. One man who dreams of taking revenge on those who took his beloved from him. 

And one prince, the youngest and weakest of the High Court, may yet find the courage to stand on the side of change. And he may yet have the opportunity to save his world.All Rights Reserved

Castle of Time and Ash by _morningstarr

She felt blessed, like the Stars themselves had granted her this. There was no limit, no rules or constraints. She was boundless; she was home, safe and secure in his unbreakable embrace. ~ Shackled in an abrupt and demanding upbringing, Althera is brought down to her knees before the king of the First Kingdom, who is all too powerful for his own good. But she doesn't remember anything - not her childhood, her family, or her identity. All she knows is her name and that she can trust no one. As she is tossed between the affairs of the palace and the unstable feelings growing inside of her for a man she cannot have, Althera cannot help but question who she truly is what she wants, But what she doesn't realize is that every decision comes with a cost, and her choice may lead to the destruction of all she holds dear.

"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 week

They were clearly a taunt. She turned her face away, refusing to let him see the storm brewing in her eyes but he wasn't satisfied with silence. He tilted her chin up with a rough coax and asked with a cruel voice,"Answer me, Vika. Itna desperation?" She jerked his hand off, forcing the words past the lump in her throat,"I'm not doing it to get you. I'm doing it to secure myself-" He leaned closer, cutting her off with a poisonous smirk and said,"Oh yeah, right. Secure your future... because you want to marry me, isn't it?"

Her innocent king by kaashiwrts

"Her innocent King" He never wore a crown, never held a gun... but still, he ruled her world. She was born with blood on her hands and fire in her veins-the mafia princess everyone feared. A girl who could break ribs without breaking a sweat, yet secretly dreamed of fairy tales. And he? He was just a boy with flour-dusted fingers and a heart too pure for her dark world. A gamer. A dreamer. The last person you'd expect to survive her storm. But fate doesn't ask for permission. One forced marriage. One innocent heart trapped in her dangerous empire. One girl who would tear down the underworld to protect the only man who made her feel human. She was raised to be a queen of crime- But for him, she chose to be his princess first... and his protector forever. After all, he wasn't just her husband. He was... Her innocent King. 👑 "When he is be like agar mein aapke kharche nahi uthapaya toh..."

𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 by JazstStories_

Beneath the roots lies a realm unspoken, where shadows breathe and rivers run black. A single step too far unravels the veil between worlds, turning play into curse, and innocence into exile. Beyond the roots, the air itself conspires, forests whisper of forgotten kings, and demons walk as both beasts and men. Yet above that abyss rises a kingdom of warmth, a fragile jewel cradled in sunlight. Its streets awaken each dawn in a riot of color: banners ripple, stalls spill with fruit and cloth, and fountains laugh with crystal spray. Children dart through blooming gardens, their laughter ringing louder than bells, while elders sit beneath arching roots, telling stories of brighter days. Here, joy is stitched into life itself. The baker greets with sugared bread, the blacksmith's hammer sings with the town musicians, and couples dance when lanterns glow like fallen stars. Festivals turn nights into oceans of song, where drums thunder and torches paint the sky in fire and gold. In this place, hope does not hide-it parades, it feasts, it laughs. The people call their home a sanctuary, untouched by sorrow, where each day begins with promise and ends in peace. To live here is to believe, if only for a moment, that darkness is nothing more than a distant dream. But beneath their feet, the roots stretch into silence. For every blossom hides its shadow, and every feast masks a silence that waits. The kingdom may be a cradle of joy, but its foundation drinks from the same soil where nightmares stir. Here, survival is no gift. Every choice is a bargain, every path a trial. What seems human may wear another face, and what seems monstrous may hold a broken heart. Secrets buried for centuries stir in the soil, twisting destiny tighter with every breath. This is not a tale of crowns or kingdoms, but of a world where light is fragile, where hope withers, and where even the roots that bind the earth tremble before what waits below.
