The day Prisha decided to end her life was supposed to be the last page of her story.
But when she opened her eyes, she was back-years ago-standing in the warm,golden days before everything had fallen apart. Before her siblings turned their backs. Before the loneliness swallowed her whole.
She doesn't know why she's here, or who-or what-sent her.
All she knows is that this time, she won't let the past slip through her fingers.
If she can protect what she lost, maybe she can save more than just them.
Maybe... she can save herself.

The Echoes of Our Hearts
Some stories bloom in sunshine. This one took root in shadows. For every beginning is not loud. Some slip in quietly-like a secret. Like a glance held a second too long. Like a name you weren't supposed to remember... but did. At Regalia Reynolds Global University, appearances were everything. Beneath the gleaming towers, designer labels, and curated smiles, truths were buried deep-hidden behind last names that weighed like crowns. Prisha Goyal didn't belong to that world. Not by blood. Not by bank balance. She was a girl with a past too heavy for her age, and dreams stitched together by hope and resilience. She wasn't looking to be noticed-not by the elite who ruled the halls with old money and sharper smiles. But life has a habit of unraveling even the most carefully woven plans. The Four Princes didn't need new players in their world. Yet fate introduced her anyway. To most, they were unreachable. To her, they became something else entirely. Enemies. Friends. Confidants. Strangers. And eventually... something far more complicated. As friendships formed in the unlikeliest corners, and laughter echoed through shared dorm kitchens and unspoken pain, the lines began to blur. Loyalties tested through whispered betrayals. Between affection and obsession. Truth and illusion. Trust and betrayal. And somewhere between the stolen glances, cruel misunderstandings, and gentle touches that meant far too much, something deeper began to bloom. Each thread Prisha tugged unraveled another mystery-about her past, about those she called friends, and about the man whose eyes always lingered just a little too long. Because love doesn't arrive in declarations. Sometimes, it creeps in-slowly, silently-until it wraps around your heart like ivy. And when the masks fall, when the truths finally surface, the question remains: Who will still be standing? P.S: It is a slow burn romance
The Lavender Haze (GL)

Now the world around her is beginning to crack- And something is clawing its way through the haze. A secret too heavy to carry. A love too deep to forget. And a truth powerful enough to burn everything down.

It a waste that I might forgot the plot and all so here it is. Mainly I don't have much time (mostly procrastinating ) and I have lot of novels to catch up. So... this novel might not have decent updates that it might be on par with on hold/on hiatus stories. I just felt wasted on leaving it rot like some of my old stories. Again I don't own my book cover picture. Salute to people who have amazing talents. Status: CompleteComplete
