[EDITING IN PROCESS.] In a kingdom wrapped in shadows and whispered secrets, where loyalty is sold for gold and love is considered a dangerous weakness, some hearts are born not to shine... but to endure. In a palace where beauty is judged by skin and worth is decided by blood, silence becomes survival. Vidya Gupta was never meant to belong there. Eighteen years old, dark-skinned, quiet, and invisible to the world, she was the daughter of a royal advisor who dreamed not of crowns, but of freedom, knowledge, and a life beyond the palace walls. But fate dragged her into the palace as a backup bride. A replacement, a shadow, a girl meant to be forgotten. Books became her only escape. Freedom, her only dream. Disguised as a maid, she walked through corridors never meant for her footsteps. And that was when he saw her. Rudra Vikrampuri, the crown prince. Twenty-one years old. Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable. Known across kingdoms as the Demon of War. A prince who ruled battlefields with iron hands and hearts with silence. A warrior who trusted no one. A man who believed love was weakness. To him, she was just a servant. Until she wasn't. Between stolen glances and harsh words in gilded halls, a forbidden bond began to bloom, a love the palace never wanted, a connection power could never allow. But in a kingdom where thrones are hunted, secrets are lethal and betrayal hides behind every smile, love is not a blessing. It is a threat. When enemies rise and conspiracies unfold, Will Rudra choose the crown...or the girl the palace tried to erase? Will Vidya survive loving a prince, who was never taught how to love? Will two hearts survive the shadows of the throne? Or will love itself become the greatest danger of all? ✦ Royalty ✦ Secrets ✦ Dark Romance ✦ Forbidden Love ✦ Slow Burn ✦ Hate to Love ✦ Betrayal ✦ Intrigue For hearts that dare to fall in love with darkness. 🌹 This story is for you.

Still wants him. If you've ever been lost in the middle of love and doubt, this story is for you.

The Tales Of Unrequited Love
"It must be quite something, a feeling like this... it is quite something. Wanting someone for so long that in your head they were yours and with some twisted intervention they become yours but the universe just decides that no form of intervention, strong feeling, and lust, planning or begging will make them yours. I wanted Jurian for so long I even overlooked that he loved someone else, I knew he never was mine but my yearning for him was so strong that I needed to have him anyway, I was selfish when it came to him, he was like a craving I desperately needed to satisfy, I was pregnant with emotions controlling me with its craving for someone who does not belong to me, but that is just how it goes isn't it? The tales of unrequited love." When Liana's fairytale does not turn out the way she had dreamt, she tries at all costs to make it work but she soon becomes indebted to reality and an unforseen journeyComplete
Dragonbound Legacy
When the dragons vanished, the world began to die. Kael never asked to be marked. He was too young, too unworthy, and now too hunted. But the ancient bond has chosen him-and with it comes fire, prophecy, and war. In a kingdom reduced to ash, one dragon still breathes. And it remembers the boy.
Kael Draven Eternal Ember
In a world of shadowed streets and ruined empires, one name is whispered like a curse-and a promise. Kael Draven. Once a predator in the forgotten alleys of a crumbling city, Kael's hunger for survival awakened something ancient within him: the Eternal Ember, a fire of both life and ruin. Neither mortal nor immortal, neither savior nor destroyer, he is bound to a destiny that defies the Thrones, the Ancients, and even the Primordial that carved the world from ash. But power breeds enemies. The Hollow Court plots in silence, factions of hybrids sharpen their claws, and the spectral forms of Ancients loom above the storm-wracked skies. As Kael ascends from the shadows to stand as the Apex, he must decide: will he wield his flame to rebuild the world-or burn it into eternal night? Epic, gothic, and unflinching, Kael Draven: Eternal Ember is a tale of loyalty and betrayal, of monstrous beauty and terrible power. Step into a realm where fire bleeds into shadow, where the line between savior and destroyer is as thin as a blade, and where one man's ascent could unmake the heavens themselves.Complete![The Things We Hide [BxB]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/395105351-256-k607599.jpg)

Cassian Blackwood has spent his entire life fighting his way through poverty, doing whatever it takes to keep his family alive in a city that couldn't care less if they lived or died. So when he was offered an unusually well-paid position as the personal servant to the crown prince, his entire world changed. The prince, Thalric Morrow, is everything Cassian despises: cold, entitled, and unbearably arrogant. A monster born into power who treats everyone with disdain. Especially his new servant, who he looked down upon from the very beginning. Cassian, however, is not afraid to stand his ground and give the prince a sharp tongue. They absolutely despise each other from the start, but hatred has a way of turning into obsession, and obsession into something far more treacherous.

And falling for the crown prince might be the most dangerous game of all. . . . ⚠️ CONTENT WARNING ⚠️ graphic language, sexual content, extreme violence, blood, death & murder, heavy mental themes such as depression and abuse, sexual identity struggles, homophobia ⠀ . . .
