We were best friends before we were husband and wife.
And somehow... that made everything more dangerous."*
⸻
Introduction
They say arranged marriages are built on compromise.
They don't tell you what happens when love is already there-
hidden, one-sided, and painfully quiet.
She loved him in silence.
He protected her without knowing why.
They were best friends.
They were family-approved strangers.
They were secretly married.
And neither of them was ready for what that would do to their hearts.
⸻
Tropes You're Signing Up For
• Best friends to lovers
• She fell first, he fell harder
• Forced / arranged marriage (soft families, zero toxicity)
• First proximity (roommates, shared space, stolen glances 👀)
• EXTREME possessiveness + jealousy
• Protective, quiet, emotionally constipated male lead
• Cute, introverted, secretly brave female lead
• Funny younger brother who knows everything
• Secret marriage from the friend group
• No cheating. Ever.
• Angst + humor + slow burn + emotional explosions
Ps this is my first time writing a story, please. The the first few chapters might seem boring, but please keep on reading. You will enjoy it a lot. Have little faith.🙏🙏🙏

Forgetting The Ex
I wince when my bangles dig into my skin,forcing a smile,hoping my boredom didn't show in my movements. I inwardly roll my eyes when my father makes introductions. What lame crap. They obviously know each other. Why make intros? I hiss when my sister steps on my foot,making me looking up. I glance at a middle aged couple, freezing when I made eye contact with an all too familiar grinning face, my vision landing next to her,hoping it was just a bad dream,my heart stopping and finally turning into an icicle when I stared into eyes of the most unexpected person,the person looking back at me,but not quite acknowledging me.Complete

UNREQUITED LOVE ❤️💔
They are best friends. She loved him. He didn't. She imagined her future with him. But he never saw her more than a friend. He loved somebody else. Her heart ached. He was happy. She was happy seeing him happy. She cared for him. But he misunderstood her. She was left heartbroken. So guys, read to know what happened next......... . . . I got 'Unrequited love' and from search, there was no turning back. I loved that story to my heart. And you never know, how much I have read that story until now. When I am sad, I read that story from the beginning - 'Ring ring ring' alarm clock going off and Piyu waking up and attending the college late. Gosh, also I feel her one-sided love and the way you portrayed Piyali wa his too good. It will always be in my heart as a cute love story between the innocent Piyu and naughty Sameer.

Under the White Lights
In the sterile hum of the OT, where the scent of antiseptic clings to every breath, two philosophies collide. Dr. Ruhi Desai - relentless, idealistic, the kind of endodontist who believes that even the most hopeless tooth deserves redemption. Dr. Rishvik Khanna - precise, pragmatic, the surgeon who knows when to cut losses before infection spreads deeper. A failed root canal. A swelling that won't wait. A patient caught between their convictions. Their debate crackles louder than the suction. Her eyes flash with defiance; his with quiet certainty. And when their gloved hands brush over the radiograph, something shifts - a current neither of them can sterilize away. In a world where every decision is measured in millimeters and minutes, they find themselves drawn into a battle that's no longer just clinical. Because beneath the white lights, where truth is magnified and emotion has no anesthesia, they'll learn that saving something broken - or letting it go - isn't just about teeth. It's about the heart.Complete![His Ex-Girlfriend [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/182264594-256-k644452.jpg)
