A missed turn. A quiet conversation. An ordinary moment that refuses to stay ordinary.
Crossways is a growing collection of flash fiction where familiar situations take unexpected paths. Some stories lean toward mystery, others toward speculative fiction or quiet reflection, but each explores the moment when a single choice, coincidence, or revelation changes everything.
Each story stands alone and can be read in just a few minutes, with every tale under 1,500 words.
New stories will be added as they are written.

"you're mine... even if you hate me".
She trusted him more than anyone... and that was her biggest mistake. One accusation. One moment. And everything changed. When the world pointed fingers at her, she waited for him to speak... but he didn't. He chose silence. And she chose to leave. 5 Years later, fate brings them face to face again... but this time, she's not the same girl. And he's not the same boy either. She built a life where no one could question her again. He built a world where no one could refuse him. Two different lives. Two broken hearts. One past that refuses to stay buried. Will they find their way back to each other... or will their past destroy them once again? "You're mine... even if you hate me." 🔥

𝐎𝐁𝐒𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐃 𝐃𝐄𝐕𝐎𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 - his massive admiration ╰┈➤ EKANSH SINGH RANAWAT [27] king of udaipur and ruthless underworld mafia leader. I have seen admiration all my life. Women don't look at me - they look at the crown. At the Ranawat name. At the legacy I carry on my shoulders. They fall for the title. For the power. For the Raj gaddi. But the day I saw her everything changed. Ananya Aradhya Singhania. She didn't look at me like I was a throne to sit on. She looked at me like I was just a man. No greed in her eyes. No calculation. No hunger for status. Just calm. Just grace. Just something untouched by this fake world. She doesn't try to impress me. Maybe that's why I lost. This isn't attraction. This isn't ego. This is love. For the first time in my life, I don't want to conquer. I want to protect. And I swear on my life- my only aim now is to stand between her and every storm. If loving her means becoming softer, then I'll become softer. ╰┈➤ ANANYA ARADHYA SINGHANIA [22] University student ,princess of jaipur I hate royal blood. People think royalty means grace and power. I think-it means [secrets and betrayal]. I was just 10 when my mother died. after 1 year , my father married to my mother 's assistant. Everyone called it fate. I call it murder. At twelve, I left for boarding school- away from Jaipur, away from marble walls that felt like cages. In this world, I only care about two people: my brother, the present King of Jaipur - the only exception - and my best friend, Meera Mehra The rest of the royal world? Keep it away from me. Especially him. Ekansh Singh Ranawat. He roams around me like some bhatakti aatma. What does he think - that he's some king or something? Well... technically he is. But that doesn't impress me. Royal blood is dangerous. And I promised myself I'd never let it rule my heart. No crown is worth my peace. No king is worth my trust.
A Terrible Evil Villain And Their Destiny
They say every hero needs a villain. In the world of Strarth, the Goddess of Heroes, Afa certainly thinks so. Unfortunately she doesn't have either nor is she allowed to bring any to the world of Strarth. Fortunately for her all her superiors are currently asleep and won't be waking up for a couple decades. What's more another strange entity who has the ability to grant her wishes offers her a deal she just can't refuse! The deal is simple, the strange entity brings to the world of Strarth someone who Afa can mold into a villain and then Afa can summon a few hand picked heroes from this backwards planet called earth. What's not to love? This is where Bryson Colin Coldwater comes in. Falling from the sky on a cold rainy night an infant Bryson is found in the garden of the Coldwaters. A noble elitist group that is known to rule their land with fear. Throughout Bryson's life his family call him the chosen one, and that their family has been chosen above all others. A perfect upbringing to bring up a egotistical villain. Unfortunately, for Afa, and fortunately for Bryson, he does not quite develop in the way she wanted him to. Over the course of Bryson's life, he will be in countless different scenarios and situations that are made to turn him into a villain that will be defeated by the heroes in the future. Bryson will unknowingly resolve these conflicts in any other outcome but the one Afa wants. In this strange game of chess, watch as the world of Strarth's most terrible evil villain faces of against his destiny.

In a world where hearts were easily broken, he chose to have none. A powerful businessman, cold and untouchable, lived a life built on silence and control. He never spoke with warmth, never cared enough to stay, and never allowed anyone close enough to hurt him. Emotions were nothing but distractions-and he had buried his long ago. Until one night... everything changed. He found her-alone, trembling, and fragile like a piece of glass ready to shatter. Her eyes held fear, her silence carried pain, and her small hands clutched onto nothing... as if she had already lost everything. For the first time, he didn't walk away. He didn't know why he stopped. He didn't know why her tears affected him. But something in her broken existence reached the part of him he thought was long dead. She was scared of everything... even of him. Yet slowly, unknowingly, she became the reason his empty world began to feel again. He, who never believed in love, found himself learning care... patience... protection. Not as a lover- But as a brother she never had. And she, who feared the world, found safety in the arms of the man everyone else feared. But when the shadows of her past return, threatening to take her away from the only place she feels safe... Will he be able to protect her? Or will the fragile bond they built break before it can truly become a family. A story of a shattered girl and a frozen man-two souls finding warmth in a bond stronger than blood. ✨ ---
