Taking a small breath, she whispers, "Sir... may I come in?" and slowly pushes the door open.
Zavian is on a phone call-
but not just talking.
He is shouting.
His deep voice echoes like thunder in the room.
"I DON'T CARE! FIX IT TODAY, NOT TOMORROW!"
Aylin freezes at the doorway, startled.
She steps inside quietly, trying not to disturb him, but the moment she places the cup on the desk-
His voice blasts again, even louder:
"ARE YOU ALL COMPLETELY USELESS?"
Aylin jumps in fear.
The hot coffee slips from her hand-
the cup tilts-
and the coffee spills all over the desk, soaking Zavian's papers...
...and splashes on Aylin's hand.
"A-Ah-" she hisses softly as the heat stings her skin.
For a moment, there is dead silence.
Then Zavian turns his head slowly toward her.
His eyes are ice.
Read to see more what will happen in the story
His jaw clenches.
And his voice...
Low. Dangerous. Ruthless.
"Are you out of your mind?"
Aylin steps back instantly. "S-Sir I-I didn't mean-"
"Of course you didn't mean it," he snaps.
"You never mean anything. But somehow you still manage to ruin everything you touch."
Her chest tightens.
Zavian slams the file shut-now drenched-and stands up sharply.
"Clean this. All of it. Now."

ENIGMA : UNVEILED 🥀 [ 18+ ]
It should've ended with distance. A silence. A closed door. But instead, it began here-pressed against a balcony wall, with her breath caught between fear and temptation, and his grey eyes burning with something far more dangerous than lust. He didn't touch her. Not yet. But the threat of it lingered in the space between their bodies, in the way his chest nearly brushed hers every time he exhaled. She could feel the tension rippling off him, barely contained-like a storm pacing behind his ribcage, just waiting to destroy. "You shouldn't be here," he said, voice rough, low, and shaking with restraint. But he was the one who had cornered her. He was the one who couldn't stay away. And she? She hated how much she didn't want to run. Because this-whatever this was-felt like standing on the edge of something irreversible. "You're my employee," he snapped. As if the label could cage what was already unravelling inside him. "You're a mistake I keep choosing." Her eyes met his-furious, pained, exposed. "I never asked you to," she said, but her voice cracked around the lie. His hand lifted slowly, brushing the side of her jaw with a touch that contradicted everything his words said. Possessive. Tender. He stared at her like she was the very thing he was never meant to want-and the only thing he couldn't stop needing. "I've spent years building walls to stay in control," he muttered, his thumb grazing her lower lip. "You walk in and wreck all of it... without even trying." She swallowed hard. This wasn't love. This wasn't even hate. This was obsession-raw, electric, and utterly doomed. And as his lips hovered over hers, trembling with the weight of a thousand wrong intentions, they both knew- 🥀It started with a look. It spiralled with a touch. And before they could stop it, they were already each other's greatest undoing.
HIS SUNSHINE ✔️
A rom-com where chaos meets calm, and love is as simple as showing up every day. She's sunshine in human form. He's a storm cloud in a suit. When cheerful and perpetually optimistic Haseena lands a job as the secretary to the infamous, grumpy CEO Anubhav, she quickly discovers that his idea of a perfect day doesn't involve laughter, fun, or-most importantly-her bright, bubbly personality. Anubhav runs a tight ship. He keeps his emotions locked away and his world perfectly structured. But Haseena? She's a walking whirlwind of clumsy mishaps, sunshiney chaos, and relentless joy. And somehow, she's exactly what he didn't know he needed. With every smile, every awkward stumble, and every unexpected act of kindness, Haseena begins to melt the walls around Anubhav's heart. And while he tries to resist the warmth she brings, it's getting harder to deny that her presence makes his world a little brighter. No past trauma. No dramatic exes. Just one grumpy man, one sunshiney girl, and the slow, sweet unraveling of a heart that's finally learning how to love.

The priest asked softly, "Pyaar karte ho apni patni se?" He smiled, his eyes instinctively finding hers. There was calm in his expression, yet something deeply intense beneath it. Then he whisper, "Pyaar toh bas ek shabd hai..." His voice carried devotion, not hesitation. "Main uski ibadat karta hoon." He paused, as if the truth itself needed space to breathe. "I don't need to worship God in temples. I have my own goddess - my wife." For him, faith was not stone or scripture. "My devotion begins with her..." "...and ends with her."

He realized she didn't understand his intention. "Get intimate with me, tell me that you love me, and I'll believe you. I'll believe that you're telling the truth," he said, or more precisely, made an offer. She couldn't process his words. Her heart broke as she listened to him. •••• His expression darkened, pain flickering in his eyes. "Kya kami reh gayi thi, Amisha? Sab kuch diya tha tumhe... apna dil tumharee kadmon mein rakha tha. Fir bhi tumne yeh kiya?" His words came out in a choked whisper, his composure slipping. (Was there anything I didn't give you, Amisha? I gave you everything... I placed my heart at your feet. And still, you did this) Tears gathered in his eyes, though he struggled to maintain his demeanor, reminding himself he couldn't afford to be soft. "You're hurting me," she whispered, her voice cracking slightly. His eyes flickered with guilt, but he didn't let go. "And what about the hurt you caused me?I loved you, Amisha. I gave you everything. My heart, my soul... everything. And still, you didn't choose me." Tears welled up in her eyes. "You should have looked into my eyes once, it was always you Vivaan.
