Unwritten, Until You♡
He was never supposed to matter to me. My sister's husband. Her forever. Her shelter. But when I moved into their home, I met a version of him she never saw, quiet, hurting, misunderstood. And somehow, he saw through me too. It wasn't about stolen glances or hidden touches. It was the silence we shared when words failed. The way he listened when no one else did. The way I felt seen, for the first time in years. Sirish was everything I shouldn't need. But I wasn't just falling for him, I was finding parts of myself in him. It's not love. Not yet. But it's something real. Something that rewrote everything I thought I knew. Even if the world will never understand. ✧ Characters: • Sirish (ML) • Brishti (FL)
Choosing YOU
He was abandoned before he learned how to love - and she was thrown into his life by fate. Everyone thought they were just another arranged couple fumbling through married life. What no one saw were the storms behind closed doors. He didn't talk much - not about the family that left him,or the pain he never gave a name to. He carried his wounds like shadows, quietly, stubbornly. Until the day he broke - and told her the truth. A child born without warmth of a mother. Left behind like a secret. Raised without love. She tried to fix it - she really did. But healing doesn't always come from the ones who hurt us. So instead, she offered him something else: Her hand. Her heart. Her vow to stay. This isn't a story about saving someone. It's about standing with them when no one else will. And loving them until they finally start to believe they're worthy of it.Complete

Kiss Me Like a Lie
He hated her. Not the I-don't-like-you kind of hate. No. He hates her with every fibre of his being. Her mere presence set him off. He hates her know it all smile and the way she brushes her hair out of her face when she is upset. The way she played with her hands when she's nervous or made snarky remarks whenever he walked into a room. He hates her with every fibre of his being. She hated him. With every fibre of her being. With his sarcastic comments and devilish grin. She hated the way he never would address her politely, or at all for that matter. He was rude and annoying and she hated it all. Everything about him. She couldn't stand it. But then again, there's a very thin line between hate and love... - Dark romance - Enemies to lovers - Arranged marriage. - Forced proximity. - Revenge.
