The reluctant love

They met at a wedding-two strangers bound by a moment, unaware that fate was already weaving their story. He fell first. Hard. Her smile, her silence, her chaos, her dramatic antics-everything about her pulled him in. But she? She had walls too high, scars too deep, and a heart too afraid to fall in love.
He saw her pain, her chaos, her drama, her strength, her vulnerability, he saw HER... and decided he wanted all of it. Even if it meant breaking every barrier she built.
Between misunderstandings, stolen glances, arguments, and unspoken feelings-he kept choosing her. Until one day, she chose him too.
Because sometimes, love isn't found. It's fought for. π

πππππππππ ππππππ built herself out of glass and fire, sharp enough to cut, bright enough to be seen. Once the head of a rising empire, she now wakes to find her name stripped from the company she created, her life reduced to contracts and control she never agreed to. But she doesn't break; she plots. Every breath becomes strategy, every silence a step toward taking back what's hers. The only problem is the man standing in her way, the same one she can't seem to stay away from. πππππ ππππππππ learned early that love was a weapon and obedience the price of survival. Behind his charm lies temper, behind his control lies ruin. He's the son of a man who built kingdoms on blood, and he's spent his life trying not to become him. But when she enters his world, she threatens everything he thinks he understands about power, loyalty, and the quiet hunger he can't seem to kill. κ¨ -#1 in #billionare - 22/08/23 -#3 in #storytelling -14/11/23 -#1 in #girlboss - 06/11/23 -#1 in #stalker - 08/11/23 -#5 in #daddyissues - 21/02/24 -#5 in #arrangedmarriage - 04/07/24
Tied By Fate
Anvitha has spent her life being the strong one-the one who never asked for love, but always secretly longed for it. Rudra has lived his life falling in love with every girl he met... but never staying long enough to feel anything real. When an unexpected twist forces them into marriage, neither is ready. Not for the silence. Not for the closeness. And definitely not for what follows. She builds walls to protect her heart. He makes it his mission to understand every crack in them. What begins as a compromise slowly becomes something neither of them expected-a connection too gentle to ignore, and too fragile to name. They weren't meant to fall in love. But fate had other plans. A slow-burn, heart-tangled romance about broken timing, unexpected warmth, and love that arrives quietly... but stays loudly.Complete

And Still, I loved you.
They were never supposed to meet again, but fate had other plans. They were never strangers. They just became people who knew everything about each other, Except how to fix what they broke. She loved him like it was the only thing keeping her from falling apart. He left like he couldn't feel it. Years passed. Cities changed. Names got softer on unfamiliar lips. But silence never erased the way they ended. And when fate threw them back into the same room, One bleeding, Other one breaking, The past didn't knock. It kicked the door down. This is not a story of falling in love. It's what happens after.
