Description
They say some people walk into your life and change everything.
But what about the ones who leave and take everything with them?
Aanya Mehra never thought she'd be standing alone one day, holding the weight of her father's business empire in one hand and her broken heart in the other.
Mumbai was her home, Canada became her escape, and New York... well, New York still had him.
Kabir Malhotra.
The boy who promised forever and left without warning.
Now a ruthless businessman with sharp words and colder silences.
And then there came Dev Shekhawat.
Her father's most trusted friend.
The man who held her world together when it fell apart.
Quiet. Constant. Protective. But never hers... unless she'd ask him to be.
Across three countries, tangled family secrets, and broken promises, she's forced to face everything she's been running from.
This isn't a love triangle.
It's a story of choosing yourself... even when your heart wants someone else.
It's about healing, forgiveness, and maybe... falling in love again when you least expect it.
Some love stories aren't loud.
Some love stories never end.
Some love stories live quietly between heartbreak and home.

His Darkest Light
He is the storm everyone fears-cold eyes, ruthless hands, and a past he never speaks of. She is the silence after chaos-soft yet scarred, with a smile that hides a thousand bruises. They weren't meant to collide. But fate doesn't knock-it crashes. In a world where trust is a luxury and love is a weapon, two broken souls find something dangerously rare: understanding. Not despite their pasts... but because of them. He sees her pain like it's his own. She touches his wounds like they were hers to heal. And in the quiet between war and peace, rage and tenderness- they become each other's home. This is the story of Rehaan Singhania and Ahaana Sharma. Not perfect. Not easy. But deeply, irrevocably theirs.

The cold silver of my waist chain pressed into my bare stomach as he pinned me flush against the heavy mahogany of his study desk. "You think you can hide from me, Little Bird?" His voice was a lethal, gravelly whisper against my ear, sending a violent shiver of wet heat straight to my core. "You think you can wear things that beg to be ripped off, and I won't collect what belongs to me?" I gasped as his rough fingers hooked under the delicate lace of my panties, snapping the thin fabric effortlessly. "Aarav, please-" "Please what?" He bit down on the sensitive skin of my neck, swallowing my desperate whimper. His thick thigh forced my knees apart, leaving me completely, helplessly exposed to his burning, pitch-black gaze. "Tell me exactly what you want. Use your words, Priyanshi." My nails dug into his broad shoulders, my entire body trembling with a heavy, throbbing ache that only he could cure. I looked into the eyes of the devil I married, finally surrendering to his darkness. "Please," I sobbed, my hips arching eagerly into his touch. "Please, Aarav. Take it." A wicked, triumphant smirk touched his lips. "Good girl. Now, scream for me." · · ─ ·𖥸· ─ · · Priyanshi Verma prayed to Krishna for a fairytale love story.
