~•~ Siya x Kiaan ~•~
He wasn't supposed to matter.
But the way he looks at her? Like she's already his.
Siya tries to stay away, to ignore the pull, to pretend it's nothing-but stolen moments, accidental touches, and one unforgettable night change everything.
"I...can't love. I don't want to love again and break!"
And just when she thinks she can walk away-
He doesn't let her.
"You don't want to love? That's fine. But you are no one to stop ME from loving you. Please.... Let me love you." He begged.
With friendships at stake, jealousy rising, and emotions spiraling out of control. The points when Friendships starts to taste like Betrayal.
"If I knew this is how I'm going to end up like, then I wish I never introduced you two to each other! I wish I never did... I fucking regret it all!" Her voice trembled as she glared at Siya with red-rimmed eyes full of tears.
How far can Siya run from something that refuses to let her go?
And how will she face it all when hell breaks loose on her friendship, when every choice starts to cost her something?
She may fight it, but reaching to one meant losing the other.

Love beyond words
They were once rivals. Now they're a collision waiting to happen. Siddharth Kapoor has mastered two things-flying planes and avoiding feelings. Aaradhya Singla has mastered everything else... including the art of getting under his skin without even trying. Years after school, fate throws them back into each other's orbit-older, sharper, and far more dangerous to one another's peace of mind. He's a pilot with a habit of running from the truth. She's an army doctor who refuses to flinch from it. Every glance feels like a challenge. Every conversation feels like a tug-of-war. And the chemistry? It's the kind that ruins rules, routines, and people. But when an old lie resurfaces-one that neither of them is ready to confront-they're forced to choose between the safety of distance and the risk of finally unraveling everything between them. Rivals. Almost-lovers. Two hearts that were always meant to crash into each other. This time, neither of them is walking away unscathed.

This is the story of how they slowly become part of each other's world.

"Sach mein marna asaan hai" lakshya chuckled before continuing , "Asaan hota jab hai ki koi tumhara intezaar nhi kar rha par yaha toh meri Kavya Mera intezaar roj karti hai. Roj mar k jeeti hai iss umeed mein ki mein wapas aaunga. How can I turn weak ?" "Itna dard jhelna sirf uske liye ?" The man asked chuckling at the Lakshya , a lovesick man. "Mujhe iss baat ka dard nhi hai ki log kya sochte hain mere baare mein , I don't care of they think I'm a betrayer , bas dard iss baat ka hai ki meri Kavya kaise jee rhi hongi ? "Lakshya replied his fingers trembling. "Woh mere alawa kisi k saamne apne aasu nhi dikhati. She pretends to be very strong that hurts me. Usse kaandhe ki jarurat hai on which she can lean & cry" he whispered, voice breaking. "But it hurts ki i can't even give her that" a tear escaped from his eyes. "Jeena toh mujhe hai. Uske liye , apne sach k liye , humare liye...." Lakshya chuckled while kissing her photo. ************** "Mein unhe insaaf dilaungi! Chaahe jo ho jaaye mein ladungi unke liye. If the whole country is against him than I'll stay against the whole country." She whispered looking at his photo. "Uss gaddaar k liye tum- "Gaddaar nhi hai woh! Mat bhuliye aap mere pati LAKSHYA SINGH RAJPUT k baare mein bol rhi hai. Zubaan sambhal ke. Unki patni zinda hai unki raksha k liye." She screamed , her eyes burning for the truth. Her eyes softening as she looked at his photo silently promising to save him. "O RANGREZ" a story of love , faith , devotion & battle. 🛐

When 𝙋𝙧𝙖𝙮𝙖𝙣 𝙈𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙧𝙖, a grounded, sharp-witted boxer from Bihar, earns a scholarship to Ravenford, he expects nothing more than a chance to study, fight, and build a better life. What he doesn't expect is 𝙃𝙞𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙚𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙧𝙖 𓂃۶ৎ He's grumpy but sunshine when it comes to her. She's cold but newly emotional because of him. He falls first, she denies, and heartbreak finds them long before any confession. She teaches him the world he never knew; he makes her crave the homeland she barely remembers. But behind their growing bond, the Mehrotra family is secretly playing games to control power, inheritance, and the future of the university. Heirs and Heartstrings mixes royal college romance, mystery, fun moments, and a rich-girl/poor-boy love story. It is about two people who meet too soon, get hurt too early, but still end up loving each other deeply. --------------------- In Phase I of H&H, you'll get all the heartfelt moments-soft confessions, stolen glances, and the first sparks of a love that quietly grows deeper, like a flame learning how to breathe. But by the end, Phase I becomes the calm before the storm. It sets the stage for a completely opposite Phase II-one built on deception and desire, tangled lies and buried family secrets, where every truth hits like a sudden crack in the glass.

"He loved her not to be loved back, but to remind her what love was meant to be." °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Aradhya Khanna stopped believing in forever the day her mother walked away. She grew up watching her father hide heartbreak behind gentle smiles, and somewhere along the way, love turned into something she didn't trust anymore. Now a successful interior designer with walls higher than her dreams, she lives her life by one rule-never expect too much from anyone. So when her father asks her to marry Rudransh Malhotra, his best friend's son and her childhood protector, she agrees... not for love, but for him. Rudransh has loved her quietly for years-through her anger, her silence, and the distance she built between them, she's always been the reason behind his patience, and now... his pain. In a marriage that begins out of duty, will love find its way through the cracks of old wounds? Or will Aradhya's fear of losing love again destroy the one person who always chose her-selflessly? Because sometimes, the most selfless love is the one that waits... and heals.![𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐐 𝐃𝐄𝐄𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐈 [ Meant To Be ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/369405209-256-k808148.jpg)

I pushed him back, my hands trembling as tears streamed down my face. My eyes burned, eyes red and vision blurring. My throat felt tight, almost like it was wrapped in thorned vines, and the vine waiting to snap my breath away. "YOU ALREADY DO!" he snapped, his voice finally breaking through, louder than before. His fingers dragged through his hair as he let out a harsh exhale, eyes squeezing shut for a moment like he was trying to hold himself together. And I looked at him, really looked at him. He was breaking. Because of me. A moment later, his eyes opened again and this time, they found mine. He started walking toward me with slow steps, like he was afraid I'd soon disappear. "You already love me, Ira," he said, almost a whisper. "What's stopping you?" His voice fragile in a way that hurts more than his shouting. He finally reached me, his hands lifting to hold mine but I pulled back instantly. "A blooming lotus can never love a withered rose, Krishav."
