Every day at 4:25 PM, he walked into the library.
He never read. Never spoke. Just sat at the same table and wrote quietly in a black notebook.
Until one day... he left it behind.
When Ananya opened it, she wasn't prepared for what she'd find - letters written to a woman named Aamna, full of grief, memories, and love that hadn't faded with time.
She wrote him back.
And that's how two strangers, lost in their own silences, began to heal one page at a time.

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

Wounded Heart ✔
She loved him with devotion so fierce it scorched every heartbeat, every glance. He was her obsession, her reason to breathe, and her undoing. But while her world revolved around him, he remained distant-a presence, never hers. "How do you let go of someone who is the air in your lungs and the ache in your heart?" "He is my breath, and I will forget him when I forget to breathe." Memories burned bright and untouchable-hers alone. She clung to each haunted fragment, every echo of forbidden love. Until fate, honouring a promise to Aashi, forced her into the arms of the man whose heart was a graveyard. "I married you to fulfil her last wish. You will never belong here." His words cut deep-cold, calculated, meant to wound. Cruelty hid his storm. Her silence was her weapon, her pain a fortress. "You think you know pain?" she spat, her eyes blazing. "I live it every day." He turned away, fists clenched. "You don't belong. This will never be your home." Yet, in their grief and fury, sparks flew, igniting something dangerous. "Love and hate are two sides of the same burning coin." When apologies come too late, and regret drowns truth, love risks turning to ash. She walks away, her heart in ruins. He falls, shattered-vowing to bleed, to burn, to reignite the fire in her eyes. "Some hearts are forged in fire. Some burn to ashes." Even if it destroys him. 📅 Start Date: 28th October 2019 ⏳ End Date: 23rd October 2020 ✏️ Edited Date: 2026Complete

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.

Determined to rise above the chaos, Ananya walks away from the relationship that once defined her. She throws herself into a new IT firm, carving her identity on her own terms.
