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.

The Quiet Kind of Forever
In a world that claps for grand gestures and loud declarations, Neel chose to love differently. With packed tiffins. With late-night shifts. With quiet patience. Naina didn't ask for this life. She didn't want a man who gave without asking, loved without words, and forgave without being begged. And yet, every month- A letter arrives. A message pings. A love lingers. 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

Book Two of The Cost of Outrunning Fate ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ Not all thrones are made of gold. Some are built from grit and ghosts. ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ 𝑵𝒂𝒚𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒂𝒎 𝒌𝒊 𝒔𝒆𝒉𝒂𝒓, 𝒚𝒂 𝒔𝒂𝒓𝒅 𝒎𝒆𝒊𝒏 𝒅𝒐𝒑𝒂𝒉𝒂𝒓 𝑲𝒐𝒊 𝒎𝒖𝒋𝒉𝒌𝒐 𝒚𝒖𝒏 𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒂 𝒉𝒂𝒊, 𝒋𝒂𝒊𝒔𝒆 𝒃𝒂𝒏𝒋𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒌𝒐 𝒈𝒉𝒂𝒓 ──────── ✦ ──────── Vivaan Thaakur was never the one they looked at. He learned early how to stay unseen-how to earn worth through discipline, how to exist beside Aaryan without resentment. And every time Vivaan reached the top, Niya Sharma was already there. She didn't compete. She simply was-brilliant, composed, inevitable. To the world, perfection. To Vivaan, an unbreakable wall. Until she saw him. Rivalry turned into reverence. Ambition into surrender. Vivaan loved her quietly, like a prayer that asks for nothing. She became his goddess. He became devotion. But faith can fracture. And one mistake-the only one he was never meant to make-destroyed the temple he built for her. A story of rivals turned worship and devotion that asks only one question: 𝑾𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝒇𝒂𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒊𝒔 𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒏, 𝒅𝒐𝒆𝒔 𝒅𝒆𝒗𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒅𝒆𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒆 𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒄𝒚? ──────── ✦ ──────── "If you didn't exist, I'd have everything I ever wanted."- Vivaan "Your brother was given a throne. But you? You have the power to build an empire. That's the difference. One that screams not 'Thaakur Dynamics'-but Vivaan Thaakur."- Niya

He didn't hate love - he just didn't believe in the kind that fades. She wasn't just sunshine - she was the storm wrapped in warmth. Reyansh keeps his heart guarded, not out of fear, but because he's seen too many people settle for less than real. Quiet, intense, and unapologetically blunt, he never imagined someone could get under his skin. Until Aadhya. She's chaos in pastel. Bold, warm, and completely unfazed by his cold shoulder. A girl who doesn't need saving - but somehow makes him want to be better. She doesn't wait to be chosen; she makes her own space in the world - and maybe in his life too. They were never supposed to collide. But hearts don't ask before they crash. ✨ A slow-burn story of soft glances, sharp words, and the kind of love that feels like home - even when it hurts. Tropes - ✯ Grumpy x Sunshine ✯ CEO x CEO ✯ Slow Burn Romance ✯ Possessive MMC and Ignorant FMC ✯ He fell first... ✯ Soft Banter ✯ Touch her and see the hell. ✯ Spicy

Destiny
They were never meant to be... or so they believed. She hated relationships. He didn't believe in marriage. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it simply unfolds. Bound by a decision that wasn't theirs, Aaradhya and Shivansh were pushed into a marriage neither of them wanted. Strangers with wounded hearts. Prisoners of their pasts. Victims of a word that haunted them both-Destiny. Aaradhya was born into a home that never wanted her. A burden, they called her. A mistake. Every time she heard the word "destiny," it didn't feel like fate-it felt like a curse. And Shivansh? He had built walls so high around him that even love feared to climb. Marriage was never part of his plan. Until she walked into it. They were never supposed to fall in love. But maybe love doesn't ask for permission either. Or was it even love? A story of quiet pain, healing silences, and unexpected tenderness. Of two broken souls who were forced into a bond... and slowly found pieces of themselves within each other. "Maybe it was fate that made them hate me. Maybe I was born to be unwanted." "Destiny"-that word never felt beautiful to her. It felt like betrayal. Like a silent enemy lurking behind every decision others made for her life. It took everything. Changed everyone. And left scars she could never forget. ~~~~ ~Author's note~ Hello guys I heartly welcome you all in this journey of Aaradhya and Shivansh. English is not my first language so please tell me if i did something that seems wrong or a grammatical error. This story is purely a work of imagination and any resemblance to real world is a coincidence. This is my first story so please do give me some tips on improvement, and don't think twice before commenting anything you don't feel alright.
Soft Silence
"𝐼𝑛 𝑎 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝑓𝑢𝑙𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑜𝑛𝑠, 𝑠ℎ𝑒'𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑢𝑛." 𝘿𝙞𝙮𝙖 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙖 is kind, too kind and strong in the way that makes people forget she bleeds too. Love was never expected, only endurance. So when her father asked her to marry she nodded... not out of hope, but habit. 𝙑𝙚𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙈𝙖𝙡𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙧𝙖, grew up in a home that taught him how to build empires but never taught him how to ask for a hug. Marriage was never part of the plan until a hospital room, a fading pulse, and the one man he could never disappoint whispered a final wish. Neither expected warmth. Neither expected understanding. And they definitely didn't expect comfort in each's other's silence. A tale of quiet yearning- an arranged marriage where silence becomes a language and love sneaks in when no one's looking. - M 💌
