His mistress
Loving him was the cruelest kind of torment-a love that lived in the shadows, one that could never bask in the warmth of the sun. I was nothing more than a stolen moment, a whispered name in the dark, a secret he tucked away between the life he had built and the one he wished he could have. I knew, deep down, that I was a fracture in his story, a fleeting escape from the weight of his reality. And yet, I still clung to him, to the illusion that for a few precious hours, he was mine. But the truth was relentless-it came in the form of unanswered texts, in the way he dressed hurriedly after loving me, in the way he said her name with the same tenderness he once gave me. I had given him my heart, knowing he would never be able to keep it, and yet, I loved him still. Loved him as I watched him walk away, loved him as he returned to the arms of the woman he truly belonged to, loved him as I drowned in the loneliness he left behind. Because no matter how much I wished it to be different, I was not his home-I was just a place he visited before going back to where his heart truly lived.Concluida

After All This Time It Was Still YOU
She closed her eyes and rested her forehead against the rough bark, her fingers tracing familiar lines-like they could pull her back to a time when love felt safe. "I missed you," she whispered. Not just to the tree... but to everything she had loved and lost. "I never knew you missed this tree so much." The voice behind her was soft. Familiar. Dangerous. Her breath hitched. Because she knew it was him-by heart. Because she had spent nine years trying to forget the sound of his voice. Some trees remember secrets. Some hearts never truly heal. And some love stories don't end... even when the goodbye was never spoken. Will Siyara and Rudransh find their way back to each other? Will love survive the weight of silence and time? Will he forgive what she never explained-or walk away for good? After nine years apart, will distance erase what they were... or prove that love never really left? Some goodbyes are unfinished. Some love stories are waiting to be continued. ✨ Dive in to find out.
