She was sixteen. He was a stranger.
A rainy metro platform.
An offered bottle of water.
A quiet moment.
And a question she misunderstood:
"Coffee?"
she pointed towards a shop
And walked away-
Never knowing he meant her.
Year passed.
She became a doctor.
He became lawyer.
Life moved on....
Until it didn't
When fate crosses their paths again-
through old friends, family ties, and an
unexpected proposal-
neither of them is ready.
She doesn't know who he is.
He can't believe she's real again.
And neither of them has any idea
what's about to unfold
Because this time,
he is not walking away.
And this time,
The Coffee might comes too late-
or just in time
[BASED ON AUTHOR'S REAL LIFE]

Durga - A Spirit Unbroken
At eighteen, she was betrayed by the very people who should have protected her sold into a house where women are stripped of their will and forced to serve under the cruel mask of survival. What followed was years of torment, beatings, humiliation, and the slow erasure of her voice. She did not live; she endured. But endurance can only last so long. Behind every forced smile, every silenced scream, she nurtures a single truth: she will not die within those walls. Her escape is not a dream it is a promise she makes to herself every night. Yet freedom is never simple. When her path collides with a man whose past is as fractured as her own, a new struggle begins. He is pulled toward her shadow without understanding why, but she scarred by betrayal and bound by fear cannot bring herself to believe in the tenderness she has longed for all her life. Caught between her past that still claws at her, a present that cages her, and an uncertain future that tempts her. She faces questions that cut deeper than chains: Will she find a way to break free? Will she allow herself to trust what her heart has always craved? Or will the house of shadows tighten its grip, binding her forever? Some stories aren't about survival alone. They're about what a soul dares to dream, even in the darkest prison. This is my first story. I request every reader to just spend their little time to open my book and read Please support me guys.........
Undeniable Vows
First part of the Story : They were childhood best friends - two halves of the same soul, growing up side by side, laughing through scraped knees and stolen glances. He's been in love with her for the last four years, hiding it behind playful teasing and protective silences. To him, she never felt the same. She never looked at him that way. What he doesn't know is... she does. She has. For the last two years, her heart has been his - quietly, completely, hopelessly. Neither of them dared to speak the truth, afraid of ruining the one thing they both held closest: each other. But feelings like these don't stay buried forever. And when fate begins to pull them apart, unspoken love might be the one thing that can finally bring them together... or break them completely.

But emotions don't ask for permission. She didn't want to fall... Yet somehow, she did. And when she did-she fell harder. A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story where love isn't just found... it's fought for. There are three main leads two stories but only two will be paired.

HIDDEN AFFECTION
A new story begins... and this time, it's not just about love it's about everything that love hides. Hidden Affection. A tale where emotions run deep even when they're buried beneath anger, silence, and duty. She's fierce, free spirited, and unpredictable a 24 year old with a heart full of spark, rebellion, and unapologetic dreams. He's mature, composed, and everything she swore she'd never fall for a 28 year old man bound by rules, reputation, and silence. They're nothing alike. She's chaos. He's calm. She questions everything. He follows structure. But sometimes, it's the opposites that burn the brightest when they collide. When their worlds crash into each other, sparks fly but not the pretty kind. It's messy. It's intense. And beneath all that chaos... something begins to grow something they both try to deny. A journey that starts with misunderstandings, cold stares, and unexpected encounters... A story where hatred slowly softens into something unspoken. Where boundaries blur. And hearts, unknowingly, begin to lean in. Tropes you'll find in this story: • Arranged Marriage • Professor x Student • Chaotic Couple • Slow Burn Romance • Opposite attracts This is not your typical romance. It's about stolen glances, denial, unsaid feelings, broken rules and hidden care and the slow unfolding of affection that was never supposed to happen.
