A girl visits her grandmother's house for what turns out to be the last time. suddenly her grandmother passes away, leaving behind only a single item in her will - a hauntingly beautiful painting, along with a handwritten note: "A life beyond the painting."
The girl doesn't understand it. Her real life feels heavy, hollow - full of grief, loneliness, and things left unsaid. She hangs the painting anyway, a swirling, dreamlike landscape that somehow seems to shimmer when the light hits it just right.
Then one night, unable to sleep, she goes to get a glass of water... and sees movement in the painting.
At first, she thinks it's her imagination - a trick of the light, maybe. But as she steps closer, the wind in the painting blows through her real hair. The trees shift. A figure turns and looks right at her.
And when she touches the canvas, everything changes.
She falls through it.
Suddenly, she's in a world unlike anything she's ever known - vivid, strange, and alive with magic. There, she meets a mysterious princess, bold and beautiful, with secrets in her eyes. And against all odds, the two fall in love.
But this world has rules. And staying means forgetting the one she came from.
When the painting starts to fade, she has a choice: stay with the girl she loves and lose herself... or return to her broken life, knowing what she had and what she gave up.

It's moments like these that make me feel like my soul is entangled with his. It feels like all of the broken pieces of me turned out to be the missing pieces in his puzzle and not at all the worthless trash that I thought they were previously. Every jagged edge dripping with blood that killed the child in me has a home against one of his, which have slowly healed into each other. Huh. Maybe that's just it. Maybe our pasts were meant to be so painful and broken so that when we met, we'd fit each other so perfectly, so snuggly, so completely that nothing would ever be able to break us again. Maybe all of the pain and suffering and loneliness truly did have a purpose after all. Maybe all of it was so that I could become the kind of person that I needed when I was a kid. - - - She is the most selfless, giving, caring, compassionate, intelligent, fearless, ambitious, loyal, kind, stubborn, patient, hardworking, did I mention stubborn-as-hell, woman I have ever met. She treats the world with such kindness even though it has beaten her till she was bloody and bruised more times than you can count. No one in this world deserves happiness and peace more than she does. I just want to grab her demons by the fucking throat and hurt them as bad as they hurt her. I want to hurt Bohr and her dad and Caroline and every person that ever made her feel small or insignificant or made her hate herself. I just want to help her feel happy. She's drowning in front of me and I'm just trying to pull her out of the water.

In one swift movement of my hand I reached behind Sapphire's neck and released her hair from the low ponytail it was in. She gasped at my action and looked at me with feverish eyes. I thought I saw the colour gold flicker in her eyes, for a few seconds before I lifted my hand near her face and tucked a strand of her wavy hair behind her ear, before I said: "I fell in love with you, the first second I saw you reading that Tolstoy book in the library." She looked up at me, her warm beige skin looked like it was glowing now and she said with pure sincerity in her eyes "per sempre, in ogni dimensione, per sempre in ogni vita, solo tu fino al mio ultimo respiro amore mio" It meant (Forever, in every dimension, forever in every life, only you until my last breath, my love) I snaked my hands around her waist and pulled her close to me. Before kissing her the way I wanted to all this time, i looked into her eyes and said "Me too my love, me too." My first novel is about soulmates. And reincarnation. About, how many bodies a soul has to live in before they finally become their true selves. And before they finally get to be with their soulmate. It's about how love has so many faces. It's about how we never know what roads life will force us to cross. And what emotions we will be gifted to feel. And the things we're blessed with that sometimes we neglect. It's about giving yourself the time to grow and evolve before you give yourself to someone completely. And it's about not to take the love you have in your life for granted.

Aarav, a talented but skeptical young man, has always lived in the shadow of his family's mystical legacy. He is content with his rational world, shunning anything that feels unexplainable or "magical." But everything changes when he encounters Meera, a mysterious woman with a gift that blurs the line between the supernatural and reality. Her touch can heal, her words can inspire, and her love... has the power to move mountains. As the two grow closer, they find themselves in a whirlwind romance where magic is not just about spells and wands, but about understanding, trust, and the gentle force of love. But with great power comes great danger. Forces both within and outside their world will test their bond, as they learn that the most potent form of magic is not what they can do-it's how deeply they feel. In a story where fantasy and reality intertwine, *Magic Wala Ishq* explores themes of self-discovery, the power of love to heal and transform, and the journey of understanding not just each other, but also themselves. The mature, tender love between Aarav and Meera becomes the ultimate gift, a reminder that sometimes, the truest form of magic is the bond we share with another person. ---

[COMPLETED] "We both agreed, Apollo! We said no feelings, no attachments! You promised you wouldn't get attached." I look down at my lap in worry and shame. I have no idea what to say, I promised her, but like an idiot I broke that promise. "Say something!" My breath hitches and I look up at my beautiful girl through my lashes, my eyes brimming with tears because I know after tonight we won't be seeing each other again. I stand up from the edge of the bed and walk over to her, watching as her chest moves up and down harshly with each breath. My eyes trail over the love marks I left moments ago when we were happy to only get lost in each other's arms temporarily. She's mad at me. I never wanted her to be mad at me. "I'm sorry, baby," I whisper reaching forward to run my finger along her cheek catching the falling tear that flows down her soft skin. "You promised." She whispers. I know. "I promise I'm not attached, Blue." Too late. ••• Apollo and Blue have a few things in common. They're both lonely, they're both sad and they both attend the same university, a place where they stumble upon each other for the first time. So when the two decide to keep each other company by forming a causal relationship, the hard-headed Blue sets clear instructions for Apollo. Do not get attached. #2 Dark // 7 April 2022 #1 Interracial // 8 April 2022
