In the year 2025, 17-year-old Shreya-brilliant, strong-willed, and born with a mysterious pull toward the ancient-finds herself abruptly transported through time into the heart of the Mahabharat era. Drawn by forces beyond human comprehension, she awakens in the presence of none other than Krishna himself. 

Calm yet cosmic, he tells her the truth: she is not here by accident, but by destiny.

Now in the golden kingdom of Hastinapur, just as the Pandavas and Kauravas return from gurukul as young men, Shreya must walk a path between fate and free will. 

Gifted with knowledge of the future but burdened by the rules of dharma, she becomes a silent observer and secret catalyst in a world where every emotion could change the course of war.

Caught between divine politics, secret alliances, and a love that was written in stars before she was born-Shreya must uncover who she truly is.
Is she a girl from the future?
Or a soul from the past, finally coming home?

As kingdoms rise and dharma trembles, only one truth remains:
Time may move forward, but destiny always circles back.

And when woven together, it presents a tale of unwavering love. "The setting sun, the moon and the stars were the witness to our love in Kamyaka Forest as they are now.

Falling In Love - Dwaparyug (Coming Back In 2026)  by writes_shree_
20 parts Ongoing Mature
In a world where time bends and destiny weaves its own mysterious patterns, eight sisters from Kalyug - modern, spirited, curious - find themselves unexpectedly thrown back into the ancient and divine Era of Dwaparyug, the time of the Mahabharata. As they step into the grand courts of Hastinapur, the sacred lands of Kurukshetra, and the majestic halls of Indraprastha, they come face to face with legends they had only read about in scriptures: the valiant Pandavas, the wise Krishna, the mighty Bhishma, the fierce Karna, and the misunderstood Duryodhan. But this is not the Mahabharata you know. What if one of these sisters is none other than Mahalakshmi herself, incarnated without her own knowledge, drawn by cosmic design to restore the balance of fate? What if the infamous Dyut Sabha (the game of dice) still happened, but Duryodhan was not the mastermind behind it - what if he, too, was a noble-hearted prince, caught in the web of palace politics? What if Karna, instead of being torn between loyalty and dharma, stood firmly as a royalist, adopted by bhishma & the only way to tie pandav & kaurav In this twist of imagination, love blooms across time, as the sisters' modern hearts connect with the ancient souls of the epic's heroes. Bonds of love, respect, rivalry, and sacrifice are tested across centuries. This story is purely a work of fiction, a heartfelt tribute and imaginative reweaving of the epic Mahabharata. No disrespect is intended toward the original scripture, its divine characters, or the beliefs surrounding them. If you're sensitive to fictional reinterpretations, you may kindly choose to skip this. For those ready to dive into the depths of this reimagined tale, I invite you: step into the ocean of this book and discover a Mahabharata where fate itself gets a second chance.

"Stop following me! Just let me go and leave me in peace!" she pleaded, struggling against his unrelenting grip. "I won't. Not today, not ever. Not after finding you again," he said firmly. "I don't belong here. This isn't my place. Let me go," she begged, desperation in her voice. He shook his head. "You've always belonged. Since the beginning of time, we were meant to be together." "You'll never convince me," she snapped. "I won't be part of this farce or let you treat me like an object without a will of my own." "It's not a farce. It's as real as the sun, and you will be part of it-whether you want to or not. Your only desire should be our companionship," he declared. "Please," she whispered, one last plea as her hand inched toward her waistband. "The only thing left to do... do it for her, if not for love. " he ordered. "For love?" she murmured, shaken. Then her expression hardened. "But love was never an option," she spat, her voice dripping with disgust-before she struck with full force. It wasn't supposed to end like this. Anwesha-once a soldier by choice, not birth-had embraced duty for her nation. But one failed mission led her to the dark waters of the Ganges. Caught in a whirlpool, she accepted death like an old friend. Yet, she didn't die. She woke up in another timeline, but here, she didn't belong. A misfit, a lone coal in a chest of gold. She wasn't chosen by fate, nor favored by the gods-just an accident struggling to return home. But every path back was closed. Trapped, she resolved to be a silent observer. Yet fate had other plans. She crossed paths with the Scions of Kuru, a dynasty shaping history itself. She hadn't intended to get involved, but now she was entangled in their world, for better or worse. Can she survive in this era, or will she find her way back? More importantly-who is she, really? And why her? After all, nothing in this world, or beyond it, is mere coincidence. • Book I ~ Stuck In Time Series •
Gandiva : Before The Rise Of Kalki  [Reincarnated As Dhananjaya Arjun 🦚] by Satarupa111
108 parts Ongoing Mature
Parth, a teenager from the year 2071, never believed his dreams could rewrite fate - until he woke up as Arjun of the Mahabharata. But destiny plays strange games. In a universe where Kurukshetra never happened, Parth learns that he isn't merely reborn as Arjun - he is Arjun himself, reborn across timelines. Guided by his Madhav's unseen hand, he enters a world where Karna sits on Hastinapur's throne, Kunti's truth is no longer a secret, and peace reigns where war once should have. His grandmother, the quiet woman he'd known all his life, turns out to be Satyavati herself, reborn to witness the world she had once dreamed of - a world where her dynasty did not bleed itself dry. Between love and duty, Parth lives the lives Arjun was denied - the laughter with Draupadi, the tenderness with Subhadra, and the quiet fulfillment of a wish once whispered to Krishna. But the wish was never the end. It was only a beginning. Without warning, Parth wakes up again - this time in 2072, with no divine voices, no weapons, and no idea why he's back. Seeking meaning, he follows his father's path and becomes a doctor, vowing to help those he can. Until strange things begin to stir. Disappearing students. Electric static that hums like divine energy. Symbols that glow. And the faces around him - Sia, Aarav, Neel, Avni, Meera - feel achingly familiar, as if pulled from a life he once fought beside. As whispers of the seven immortals resurface and the shadows of Ghor Kaliyug creep closer, Parth begins to remember why he was reborn - not to escape destiny, but to lead what remains of the good into the dawn of a new Yuga. ●Past name- ■Reincarnated As Dhananjaya Arjun(I regret changing it because of my attachment issue. Lol)

War. Suffering. Despair. The year 4350, Kali Yuga's peak. Virtue and dharma had disappeared from the face of Earth long back and all that remained now was despair. To escape from the hell they called home, Syxira and Zolani agree to be scapegoats for a time travel experiment. When the time-travel experiment goes wrong, they're sent back to the era of Dwapar Yuga, a time of gods and kings. Thrown back in time to the epic of Mahabharat, they find solace near the banks of the Ganga, the forests of Aryavarta and the palaces of Hastinapur. They view the epic from far away, but can't help being drawn in themselves. But they face their worst enemy-God himself. Because even in this new world, their hatred for Krishna runs deep. The cheeky, flute-playing God hadn't helped them as they lost everything in Kaliyug. Yet, here he played his flute with no worries in mind. They argue all day, and scream all night but never make up for the silly fights. But, will their fury keep them from finding peace or will they have to confront the very gods they despise? Will they ever let themselves be a part of the famous tale of Mahabharat? ⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅ This book is being written in collaboration of Error_1242 and bhadra-.
