🌹 Crown of Thorns
Every crown hides a wound. Every throne guards a secret.
In the ancient city of Nawbas, behind the high stone walls of a majestic yet crumbling royal palace, two souls are bound by a fate neither of them chose.
Arnav Singh Chauhan, the cold-hearted CEO and last heir of a royal bloodline, has no time for emotion-only duty, power, and silence. Raised in shadows, trained to lead, he is a man who wears his crown like armor and trusts no one.
Jaanvi Singh Agnivansha, an unloved daughter of another royal house, is soft where he is stone. Hidden away for years and haunted by a traumatic past, she escapes into the beauty of her designs and the warmth of her food. But her quiet world shatters when she is thrust into a political marriage with a man who refuses to look at her.
The palace whispers secrets-of betrayal, forgotten heirs, and bloodlines soaked in mystery. As emotions flare and boundaries blur, Jaanvi and Arnav must navigate the thorns of a forced union, family expectations, and a love that blooms slowly... if at all.
But some crowns are cursed.
And some love stories were never meant to be safe.

RIWAAYAT : The Secrets Of The Heart
He is the King of Jaipur; poised, commanding, untouchable. Arhaan Veer Rajneil carries the weight of a crown, the responsibility of a legacy, and a heart haunted by a past he refuses to forget. Ten years ago, he lost his mother in a mysterious car crash, a tragedy that still casts shadows over his every decision. Love? That is a luxury he cannot afford. She is Sahira Roy Raichand; passionate, fearless, and full of life. A literature professor with a heart that feels everything, she has always believed that emotions are to be lived, not hidden. Yet fate binds her to a tragedy she never asked for... her father died in the same accident that changed Arhaan's life forever. When their worlds collide through a royal literature project, sparks ignite and not the kind either of them expected. Her warmth challenges his order. Her laughter irritates him... and slowly begins to heal him. But the world watches in shock when Arhaan, cold and untouchable, chooses to fix his own marriage with Sahira. She refuses, she resists, yet he will not be denied. A scandalous kiss. A marriage bound by law. Small stolen moments that speak louder than words. Beautiful, fleeting, forbidden. Yet behind every confession, every tender glance, lies a question that refuses to stay buried: the crash that took his mother, the death that took her father; were they just accidents... or something far more sinister? In a world of secrets, duty, and unspoken desires, love is dangerous, trust is fragile, and every heart holds a story waiting to be revealed.
A Promise in Silence
A widowed father. A veiled princess. A marriage born out of duty-blossoming into destiny. Mrityunjay Rajvanshi is a man of silence and scars. A powerful CEO from Varanasi, he hides his pain behind discipline and devotion-especially for his little son, Karthik. When societal pressure pushes him to remarry, he agrees-for Karthik, not for love. Meera is a vision of grace-raised behind palace walls in Thrissur, trained in dance and silence. Behind her demure smile lies a royal lineage and a goddess-like power she's never had to unleash-until fate binds her to Mrityunjay. In a world where ancient bloodlines still whisper secrets and pride is a currency, Meera enters a hostile household with nothing but resilience and love. But when danger touches Karthik, she awakens as something far more than a wife-something divine. As their bond deepens and desire ignites behind closed doors, a shadow from the past rises. Sree, Meera's missing best friend, vanished without a trace... and holds a secret that could unravel everything. From the sacred temples of Kerala to the burning rain of Varanasi, this is a tale of love that begins in silence and ends in storm. A love story carved in fate, drenched in tradition, and touched by the gods.Complete
