Ananya and Ishaan never planned to adopt. But when they find a mute child abandoned in the depths of the forest, something about him calls to them-an eerie, unspoken bond that neither can explain. The child never speaks, never cries. He only watches.

But then, Ananya stumbles upon old photographs hidden in their attic-photographs of the same child, decades before he was ever found.
As whispers of the past begin to unravel, their world tilts into something unrecognizable. The boy isn't just lost. He isn't just silent. He is a reflection of something they were never meant to see.

And now that they have, he isn't letting go.

A chilling psychological thriller that blurs the lines between reality and nightmare.

No One Heard Her Cry by black_hunterr
30 parts Complete
Anaya, an eighteen-year-old girl, is the silent pillar of a broken household. The eldest daughter of a family teetering on the edge of collapse, she lives in the shadow of her father's violent rage and her mother's quiet endurance. Her father, once full of ambition, now drowns in bitterness and unemployment. His fists often speak louder than his words, leaving bruises not just on skin, but on souls. Her mother, worn and weary, works long hours to keep the family afloat. She bears her husband's fury without protest, trying to shield her daughters from a storm that never ends. But Anaya sees everything. She learns early that no one is coming to save her. So she saves herself-bit by bit. She wakes before dawn to prepare for school, studies harder than anyone else in her class, and then comes home to cook, clean, and protect Meera, her fifteen-year-old sister. She never cries in front of them. Her tears belong only to the silence of the night, muffled by her pillow. All she's ever wanted is love that doesn't hurt. A voice that doesn't yell. Hands that don't bruise. A home where she's not afraid to breathe. And then she meets Aryan - a calm, composed naval officer who sees through the mask she wears. With every gentle word, every respectful glance, Aryan offers a world Anaya never believed existed. But her heart, so used to scars, trembles at the thought of trust. What if love turns cruel again? What if Aryan, too, becomes her father? Anaya stands at a crossroads - between the trauma of the past and the terrifying hope of a better future. Will she bury her heart to protect it, or will she finally let it bloom in the light it always deserved?

"Destiny didn't choose her. It cursed her." Dominant ML & Dominant FL. ( Mafia King ×Lawyer) ✨ She was destiny's forgotten child. The girl no one chose. The bloodline no one claimed. The truth the world buried. *ANANYA SHARMA*- innocent, soft, broken, healing... living a life made of lies and held together by borrowed love. And between all that darkness, one boy stood beside her like a quiet protector. *Ishaan Thakkar*-her best friend, her safest place, the silent devotion that never asked for anything in return. He loved her the way prayers love temples- softly, secretly, endlessly. But fate had other plans. Darker plans. ✨He was the devil Banaras whispered about. The man who ruled fear. The shadow the city bowed to. *VARDAN SINGH RATHORE*- obsessed, dangerous, untouchable... haunted by the little girl who once saved him, claimed by her before she even knew his name. She didn't know he watched her grow. He didn't know she carried the lineage he wanted to destroy. She trusted him with her scars. He trusted her with his silence. She learned to love again in his arms. He learned to breathe again because of her. But the truth always returns. She was the one he was sworn to kill. And he was the man she was destined to fear. . . One man waiting with open hands. One man burning the world to get her back. This isn't a love story. It's the curse three souls inherited. The bond she never chose. The war they were born into. The longing none of them can escape. Because some people aren't meant to love freely- they are meant to love tragically. She was his- since the moment she saved him. Since the moment she broke. Since the moment he broke. But she was also the only heartbeat Ishaan ever prayed for. In a world where blood decides loyalty and destiny chooses enemies... They were the Unchosen Ones. Bound. Damned. And cursed to love in all the wrong ways- where choosing one man means destroying the other. #1 in new story 🎀

Woh Jo Tha, Woh Jo Hai

20 parts Ongoing

The past never stays buried. Anaya Qureshi thought distance and time could silence her nightmares. But returning to Pakistan only awakens them again-dreams laced with mist, footsteps in the dark, and whispers that refuse to let her go. What she doesn't expect is to collide-literally-into Aahil Mirza, a man with storm-grey eyes, a dangerous smirk, and secrets etched into his soul. Their worlds are bound by more than coincidence. Every glance ignites something forbidden, every encounter pulls her deeper into a web of memories, betrayals, and truths that someone wants to keep hidden. As shadows from the past close in, Anaya must decide if Aahil is her greatest danger... or the only one strong enough to save her.
