Aaradhya was a storm that came softly.
An arranged marriage. A husband who didn't love her. A family that adored her.
She stayed silent. She stayed kind. And slowly, without knowing... he began to fall.
But when Vivaan finally realized he loved her, it was already too late.
A love story written in letters, lilies, and the kind of grief that blooms into forever.
He loved her late. But he loved her always.

Some hearts leave without closing the door. Some forevers aren't loud. Some love stories never leave... they just learn to live from far. He never shouted. Not when she ignored his silence. Not even when she forgot how to love him. He just stayed. Quietly. Through her tempers. Through her distance. Through it all. This is not the story of a perfect marriage. It's the story of a man who kept choosing her in the ways that didn't make noise. until it cost him more than his heart. "The Quiet Kind of Forever" is for every soul that's ever loved without being seen, for every sacrifice that went unnoticed, and for every goodbye that was made with love. ========= Rankings🎖️👇🏻 #1 in Real life romance (4-8-25)🥇 #2 in every day love (7-8-25)🥈Complete

The devil's devotion
--- "The Devil's Devotion" He was the name people feared, the shadow people bowed to - Aaryan Veer Singh Rathore. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. She was the kind of girl who smiled at flowers, lit diyas at dusk, and never raised her voice. Aaradhya - the soft-hearted girl who became his wife through an unwanted arrangement. Ananya never imagined her life would take such a sharp turn-married into the powerful Rathore family, where every bond feels unfamiliar, and every silence weighs heavy. But slowly, through playful teasing from her new siblings and the guarded eyes of her husband Rudra, she begins to discover warmth in unexpected places. He is arrogant, confident, a man who hides behind his silence, while she carries a heart still aching for belonging. As laughter creeps into her nights and soft conversations replace the distance, Ananya and Rudra find themselves walking a fragile line-between strangers, companions, and something far deeper.
Bound By Love ✔
Formerly, This Book Is Known As "TWO HEARTS ENTWINED TOGETHER" He thought she betrayed him. She thought love would bring him back. Arnav and Aaradhana were soulmates... until silence tore them apart. "I loved you like my whole world, Aaradhana." "Then why did you destroy it with your doubt, Arnav?" Three years ago, one lie whispered in the dark changed everything. Arnav believed the worst. Aaradhana chose to stay silent-out of love, out of fear, out of pain. And just like that, a love so pure turned into heartbreak. "I died every day waiting for you," she whispers. "You should've screamed the truth instead of whispering lies," he replies, eyes burning. Now, after years of distance and despair, fate throws them together again-not through their own story, but through the blooming love of their younger siblings. "What a joke... love runs in the family," he mocks, eyes cold. "It used to," she says softly, "until you taught it how to bleed." Aaradhana never stopped loving him. She clung to every shared smile, every unspoken word, every promise he once made. Arnav? He buried his love beneath rage, convincing himself it was betrayal, not love, that lived in her silence. "You still haunt me, Aaradhana. I see you in every shadow, every silence, every damn heartbeat." "Then why do you keep running from the only place you ever belonged?" As secrets unravel and the past claws its way back, they must face the truth: Love never truly leaves. But pride? Pride can burn down everything it touches. Will Arnav open his eyes before it's too late? Will Aaradhana's patience finally be rewarded-or shattered beyond repair? A storm of emotions. A past that refuses to die. And a love that still dares to hope. 🕰️ Start Date: 3rd April 2017 🕰️ End Date: 18th June 2017 🕰️ Edited Date: November 2025Complete
