This is the story of Shreyas Iyer and Inaya Pillai, two people from entirely different worlds, brought together by fate and family.

Shreyas Iyer, once a cricket sensation, now finds himself in a slump, dropped from the national team, haunted by recent failures, and nursing the wounds of a painful breakup. With his career on shaky ground and his heart still healing, the last thing he wants is to think about marriage.

Inaya Pillai, on the other hand, is the fierce and driven CEO of a successful software company, LyraSoft. Focused on her career and not one to be tied down by tradition, she has no interest in arranged matches or settling down.

But destiny has its own plans.

Forced into an arranged marriage by their families, Shreyas to regain stability, Inaya to fulfill an old promise, the two reluctant partners must navigate the clash between expectations and personal desires. Neither of them is ready. Both are running from the idea of marriage.

Yet, sometimes, the paths we try to escape from are the ones that lead us exactly where we're meant to be.

Read on to discover what happens when two stubborn hearts, thrown together by circumstance, begin to challenge everything they thought they knew about love, life, and second chances.

*DISCLAIMER*
This book is a work of pure fiction. While the male lead, Shreyas Iyer, is inspired by the well-known cricketer, the female lead, Inaya Pillai, is entirely a fictional character created for the purpose of this story. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, beyond the male lead is purely coincidental.

A Shubman Gill Fanfiction It started with a strategy. A few staged reels. A couple of cozy paparazzi photos. An exclusive 'soft launch' on Instagram. Nothing too obvious-just enough to redirect the headlines. When Shubman Gill's spotless public image takes a hit after a misquoted interview spirals into a media storm, the BCCI goes into damage control. And at the heart of the plan is Kavya Singh-the board's most trusted media strategist. Sharp, unshakable, and always three steps ahead of the internet. Her job? Build narratives. Kill rumours. Protect reputations. So when she suggests a fake relationship to soften Shubman's media persona, it's just business. He's a client. A brand. A pawn on her digital chessboard. She's been behind the camera for years-curating every off-field moment the fans obsess over. From locker-room banter to airport looks and post-win reels, Kavya knows every player's media mask better than they know it themselves. And she's immune to cricket charm. Especially Shubman Gill's. Too perfect. Too polished. Too smug. But Shubman is done being managed like a headline. And he's not going to let Kavya direct his entire life-even if she looks annoyingly good doing it. What begins as a professional arrangement soon turns into something far messier. Because behind every "casual" photo-op is a charged glance that lasts too long. Behind every caption is a private joke that no one else understands. And somewhere between match-day smiles and 3AM voice notes, the line between pretend and real blurs. He's supposed to be the golden boy of Indian cricket. She's supposed to stay behind the lens. But the story they're telling the world? It might just be writing itself. And the scariest part? Neither of them wants it to end.
The Faded Vows by lynk992925

He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.
