Ishani :- The elder daughter, utterly broken yet standing tall .

Advik :- Her healer , her lifeline.
He loved her like he never loved anyone before.


Warning:- 
This is a slow burn story and the entry of the  male lead will be at least after 20 - 25 chapters , as we will be digging into Ishani's past , her daily life and other topics about her because I want to portray the real emotions behind the story .

Ishani is shown as a weak character in the start but there will be a big character development of her .

No hate will be tolerated on any of my lead characters .

If you don't like the story ,  don't read ,just leave it .

At last ,

This story is based on the author's real life but the difference is  there's no Advik in her life .All Rights Reserved

JAAN by Mishti_loveforever

WARNING: this story will contain a male lead who has anger issues and controlling in nature, not a moral story some scenes may trigger you so, if you do not wish to read it please skip it. Story will contain some explicit scenes so you have already been warned. When fiercely independent college student Ishika Rai is torn from her glittering Delhi life by a family emergency, she finds herself trapped in a remote Rajasthani village that feels like stepping back in time. No WiFi. No freedom. No escape. Prithvi Raj Chauhan-the village head whose word is law. Respected by some, feared by all. His anger burns like desert fire, his dominance absolute. He sees Ishika as everything wrong with the modern world: defiant, disrespectful, dangerous to his carefully guarded traditions. She sees him as everything she's fought against: controlling, suffocating, determined to break her spirit. Their first meeting ignites a war. Every conversation becomes a battlefield. Every glance a challenge. He demands submission; she gives rebellion. He tries to silence her; she roars louder. The village watches in shock as their untouchable leader meets the one person who refuses to bow. But beneath Prithvi's rage lies a man haunted by secrets that made him this way. Behind Ishika's defiance beats a heart that's never met its match. As desert nights burn with their explosive confrontations, something darker and more dangerous than anger begins to consume them both. Desire. In a place where tradition rules and outsiders don't survive, two forces of nature are about to discover that sometimes the person who challenges you most is the one you can't live without. Can a woman who bows to no one love a man whose anger could destroy worlds? Can a king of tradition surrender his crown to a queen who refuses to be tamed? Some fires burn everything. Others forge unbreakable bonds.

Vengeance Wore a Smile by Author_Mizukie_

Love softened her scars, but vengeance sharpened her heartbeat. Ishani looked calm, tender-almost fragile- yet the truth beneath her smile was carved in storms. Trained to read emotions and unravel minds, she moved through life with a love that healed and a darkness that hunted. When justice stayed silent, she refused to. And then there was Vihaar- steadfast, infuriating, and the only warmth brave enough to hold a woman made of fire. He loved her shadows as fiercely as her sunlight. Together they lived on the thin line between justice and obsession, between soft kisses and silent promises. In the quiet curve of her smile lay a threat, a vow- and sometimes... his salvation.

His Sanctuary by Moonshyrewrites

Some scars bleed in silence. Some love stories begin with pain. He's the man the world worships - powerful, untouchable, cold. But behind closed doors, Abhimaan is a soul stitched together by trauma, hiding scars no one ever dared to ask about. Until her. Ishani is everything he's not - soft, stubborn, and impossibly patient. She sees him, not for his fame or fortune, but for the storm beneath his silence. When fate pulls them into the same apartment building, a quiet war begins - between walls and vulnerability, between past and healing, between pain and the possibility of love. But love isn't always tender. Sometimes, it hurts. Sometimes, it peels you open. And sometimes... it's the only thing keeping you alive. 💙 A slow-burn, deeply emotional story of trauma, intimacy, healing and blue-colored love.* Perfect for readers who believe in broken people finding home in each other.

Irresistibly Yours by tanisha_jaiswall

What happens when someone steps into your life out of nowhere, at a time you least expect... and suddenly, everything you knew about yourself starts to change? A pull so undeniable. A connection so intense. A story you never saw coming. DEVANSH MALHOTRA - cold, calculated, and driven. A man who buried his emotions long ago, living like a machine, where the only thing that mattered was success. Love? A distraction. Care? A weakness. But fate has a strange way of playing its cards. What happens when his meticulously structured world collides with a storm of emotion, unpredictability, and warmth? ISHA SINGHANIA - once a vibrant soul, full of dreams, laughter, and light. She was the kind of girl who believed in fairy tales... until one heartbreak shattered her belief in love and dimmed her spark. Now, she's guarded, distant, and nothing like the girl she used to be. But even broken hearts beat... and sometimes, they beat for someone unexpected. When two souls carrying the weight of their past cross paths, will they heal or hurt each other more? Will Devansh surrender to a fate he never believed in? Will Isha dare to feel again? Or will they both walk away from the one thing they never thought they'd crave-love? He didn't believe in love. She stopped waiting for it. Until now.

But instead of anger, her lips curved into a mischievous smile. "At least you feel something for me. And something is always better than nothing, my Love."

Maya: Tied to him by Velouraith

A calm village head enters a marriage of convenience with a city girl only to discover that loving her might be the one thing he can't control. Zayan X Maya ✨ "Woh umr mein bada tha, samajh mein samandar sa, Main jazbaaton ki baarish, woh sabr ka aasman. Main takraar thi, chup thi, toofan bhi kabhi, Woh khamoshi mein dooba, magar dil se qareeb. Bin maange mila saath, ek sauda sa laga, Par waqt ne likhi kahani, mohabbat ban gaya. Main bikhri rahi, woh samet'ta gaya, Ishq shayad aisa hi hota hai-chup chaap saza." 🌷💗✨

Her Replaced Groom (18+) by Author_Mannat_

Daksh didn't argue. He didn't rush to soothe her or deny her pain. Ishani turned away, her body tense, voice barely above a whisper but sharp with hurt. " it feels like the universe made a cruel joke - giving me you instead of the one I wanted." Her words landed heavy, and inside, Daksh felt the sting like a thousand invisible wounds. But he swallowed the pain, forcing himself to stay calm. "Ishani," he said softly, stepping a little closer, "please... just hear me out. I never asked for this. I only wanted to protect you from being broken even more." She flinched but didn't turn around. "Protect me? How can I feel protected when everything I dreamed of is shattered?" His voice grew gentle but urgent. "Maybe I can't fix the past. But I'm here - not as a replacement, but as someone who wants to stand by you." She clenched her fists, her breath hitching. "I'm tired, Daksh. So tired of pretending this is okay." Daksh's heart ached, watching her fight with herself - wanting to break but refusing to fall. "I'm not asking you to pretend. Just to give me a chance... to be here." Then Ishani whispered, voice raw and trembling, "I'm not ready. Not yet." Daksh nodded slowly, the pain clear in his eyes but his resolve unshaken. "Whenever you're ready... I'll wait." ||Daksh Sehgal - the elder son of the prestigious Sehgal family. Intelligent and responsible, he carries the weight of his legacy with quiet strength. With devilishly handsome looks and a calm, kind soul, Daksh is more than just a charming face - he's a protector at heart, willing to put others before himself.|| ||Ishani Raichand - a gentle soul wrapped in grace and innocence. Soft-spoken yet strong, she is a girl who carries the weight of the world on her fragile shoulders without ever letting it show. Her heart beats for her loved ones, and she endures every storm with silent courage. For her father's reputation, she's willing to sacrifice her own dreams, her own voice even her own happiness.||
