What if death wasn't the end -
but a portal into history?
Vedika dies in 2024.
She wakes up as Princess Chandravati in Dwapar Yug -
the past that looks like her, but isn't hers.
Krishna finds her. Fate rewrites her.
And Karna...
Karna looks at her like he's seen her soul before.
In a world where dharma is twisted and loyalty is punished,
she must choose:
Stay silent and let history repeat itself -
or rise and change Karna's ending.
She has been sent back to a time of war, betrayal, and dharma.
And she has one task -
Stand beside Karna.
Before fate breaks him again.

Does the Moon Yearn for the Sun?
[ COMPLETED ] When war steals everything and truth arrives too late, can love still find a way? Or will it vanish like the sun at dusk and the moon at dawn? Urmila, an ordinary woman from the 21st century, never imagined her life would take a turn beyond time itself-until a near-death accident hurls her into the heart of the Mahabharata. Lost in an era of warriors, kings, and divine prophecies, she finds herself entangled in the fate of the Kuru dynasty. At first, her only desire is to return home. But that changes the moment she meets Angaraj Karna-the radiant, tragic son of the Sun God. A man scorned by society yet bound by unshakable honor. A warrior cursed by fate yet overflowing with kindness. And a heart so fierce and noble that it threatens to consume her own. As the great war of Kurukshetra looms, Urmila faces an impossible choice: should she defy fate itself to save the man she loves, or let history unfold as it was written? Her journey is one of love and loss, sacrifice and self-discovery, forcing her to question whether destiny can be rewritten-or if some souls are meant to burn together, only to fade apart. Can love truly transcend time, or will Urmila's arrival only deepen the tragedy that awaits Karna?Complete

Drisana has always felt like she's in the wrong place, wrong time. Why? That has no answer. After her parents death, adventure lover Drisana has been travelling around the world to find peace in her heart which has always been missing. But things take a drastic change when she comes to visit the place that her parents belonged to, where she was born.

How she reached from Kaliyug to Dwapar yug and why? Many more things are running through her mind and all she got from the mortal disguise of Lord Narayan, Krishna is, "Tum etihas ka hissa nahi balki etihas rachne aayi ho. Apni vaggya ka racaita tum khud ho. " (You're not part of the history. Rather you have come to create the history. You're the writer of your own destiny.) *********** Familiar with the Mahabharat? Don't worry if you're not. I've added a short description of the original Mahabharat plot in the book for those. This story will follow the original mahabharat storyline but in a vastly different way with a lot of twists and events in my style. 😉 I'm aware Mahabharat holds religious sentiments for some and I do not INTEND to offend anyone. This is for entertainment purpose only. So don't get serious or offended please. And I apologise in advance if you feel hurt by any content of the book.Complete
Destiny or Accident?
Advika, 25, recently retired from her perilous career as a spy for the Indian government. She's faced trauma that most couldn't bear in a lifetime. Now, all she craves is the one thing her life lacked-normalcy. A quiet, boring life free from the shadows of her past. But she'd never admit it, even to herself. To desire simplicity feels like weakness. Yet, deep down, that's all she wants-something real, something safe. Karna, born a suta but kshatriya by heart, is a man who defied everything society forced upon him. Humiliated, cursed, and denied his rightful place, all he ever longed for was to learn weaponry-archery, his true calling. Though denied by every royal and guru, he carved his own path, mastering the art despite them all. Now, he seeks the respect and glory he's been denied, determined to claim his place in Hastinapur, the very kingdom that rejected him. He's no longer just a man-he's an enigma, a force of sheer will. But what happens when Karna, through mysterious forces, arrives in Advika's house? In a clash of instinct and fear, she attacks first, questions later. Their worlds, separated by centuries and desires, suddenly collide. One seeking peace, the other seeking glory. Both wanting the impossible. Advika wanted a simple life after the storms of her past. But maybe it was too much to ask. Karna wanted respect and honor in the land that spurned him. But maybe that, too, was too much to ask. Though their lives are worlds apart, something powerful connects them, pulling them into a moment neither can explain. Two souls, bound by destiny, stand before each other in an era foreign to them both. And as they each seek what they desire most, one truth becomes clear-when the universe conspires to grant your deepest wishes, there's always a price. The question is: at what cost?
THE ALTERNATE MAHABHARAT
In the world where destiny is written in stars, two souls dared to write their own. The Mahabharat begins as we know it-but one change alters the course of history forever. Isha, the enigmatic twin sister of Krishna, born with a divine spark yet unaware of her celestial lineage, crosses paths with Karna, the abandoned son of Surya, on his journey to find a guru. Their paths cross in Gokul, and a bond is forged-first as friends, then as something deeper. Trained by gods, shielded by secrets, and united in a marriage hidden from the world, they rise to build Suryaprastha-a kingdom of justice and beauty, far from royal eyes. But duty has its price. Torn between family and love, dharma and desire, Karna and Isha must walk in shadow-even as war brews and the world watches another story unfold. An untold saga of love, loyalty, and rewriting fate-this is Mahabharat, retold from the silence between verses.

HER DEMON A story of the forbidden, the fated, and the fire that never died. The demon. Her demon. She was the moon-gentle, serene, cloaked in a glow that calmed the wildest storms. But behind that soft smile lay unspoken chaos... a soul that had seen lifetimes, a fire buried deep under elegance. And he-he was the night. Not just its silence, but its shadows. Proud, raw, raging. A storm that no one dared to tame. A fire that burned everything it touched. They were night and moon. Darkness and glow. Clash and calm. Broken and whole. Incomplete... without each other. For only her devil could command his demon. Only her voice could silence his wrath. Only her presence could still the war within him. But what if the universe-tired of watching history repeat pain-chose to intervene? What if Narayan decided to play again, not with a flute this time, but with fate itself? What if the great Mahabharat, written in stone, was granted a new page? What if Duryodhan, the king of lost causes, the misunderstood warrior of Hastinapur, was given another chance? Not to change the war-but to change the reason he went to war. Not to reclaim a throne- And what if two hearts from Kaliyug, separated by time and tragedy, were reborn in Dwaparyug? Carrying the memories, the madness, the ache of a love that never found its forever? He was known as Hridav-fierce, feared. She was known as Vriddhi-graceful, wild, divine. But the time played & made them Duryodhan and Vartika. This is not the Mahabharat you know. This is the Mahabharat Krishna chose to rewrite. A tale where love is darker than war. Where the demon is not evil-but deeply human. And where the heroine doesn't slay the monster... she loves him. HER DEMON A story of souls reborn. Of fate reshaped. Of a love so fierce, even time dared not touch it. #1 in yudhishthir #2 in narayan
