He controlled everything-his empire, his emotions, his world.
Until the past he never knew existed... walked into his life.
Akshara Rathore is not weak-just silent in a world that never listened.
Once blamed for something she never did, she learned to choose her words carefully and guard her heart from the wrong people.
She doesn't trust easily...
but when she does, she gives her loyalty without hesitation.
Advik oberoi is control itself. Ruthless, powerful, and feared-he doesn't allow emotions to interfere with his decisions.
But her presence?
It unsettles him. Challenges him. Changes him.
Because some truths refuse to stay buried...
and some people are never meant to remain unaffected.
When control meets the truth-
something is bound to break.

BATTLE OF LOVE (completed)
"So, should I take it as a 'yes' Dharani?", Acharya asked me looking straight into my eyes as if he is reading my expressions. I immediately looked down trying to compose myself and hide my feelings before he actually reads them. "Or would you like to take your word bac...." "It's a yes," I replied confidently. Taking your word back is the worst thing you could do in a royal family. It is a sign of weakness and is just unacceptable. Moreover, I am pretty sure Arjun would never agree to marry me. So why should I be the one to reject. "What about you, Arjun?" asked King Indra turning towards his son. "You remember what you told yesterday right?" he said signaling Arjun about something. The room was filled with absolute silence and I realized that the only sound that could be heard is that of my bangles, and that is because my right hand is slightly shivering. "Umm...father....I, " Arjun stuttered perhaps for the first time in his life, "accept....accept... this marriage proposal." I looked at Arjun in disbelief. My eyes widened and I didn't know how but my hand was already on my forehead. I didn't expect this from him. Why in the world would he want to marry me? He hates the way I look at the world. He wants everyone to be as heartless as him and I would never be able to do that. "Dangerously kind" is the word he used to describe me a while ago. We wouldn't even make good friends, let alone life partners. How in the world could we live together? "So it's official. You both are going to get married," king Indra said smiling while Acharya was writing something on a paper as if he already knew this is not going to be all love love. "This is more of an agreement king," he said as he wrote down, "and they knew it. They were eavesdropping on our conversation from the beginning." True, we heard them. We understood what they had planned, but we didn't want to get married. At least I didn't.....Complete

The Royal Stranger
Vrishali was popularly known as the life of the party. She had a natural ability to make friends with anyone she met. Everyone adored her, and she had yet to find her perfect match amidst all the chaos of her college parties. However, she was not interested in dating anyone at the moment. She was content with being single and wanted to enjoy her college life to the fullest without any commitments holding her back. She always had this belief in the timeline in her mind. 'Meeting. . . Knowing. . . Dating. . . Live-in. . . Marriage. . .' Marriage has always been somewhere in the back of her head. She didn't believe in the concept of love at first sight or the prospect of marrying someone she hadn't lived with. She is fully committed to enjoying her college life to the fullest. However, when her grandparents invite her parents to spend the summer holidays with them in India, she reluctantly agrees to go along. To her delight, she discovers that she will have the opportunity to meet one of the country's royal families during her trip. But that's not all stored for her. When things take a 360°, she couldn't do anything except listen. Until it crashed all her beliefs in one go, they said love doesn't need to come first, then marriage. It can be the other way: first comes marriage, then comes love, filling you like slow happiness in a desert of sadness. "We meet for a reason― to fill the empty parts, to make it a little over the top, to try the filmy drama in a drama called life."Complete

Two souls, two lives, two extremes of existence She was mischief wrapped in sweetness, The girl who painted every hallway of the school with her brightness, The one whose giggles were remembered long after the day ended. People said she was the kind of joy you don't forget, The kind of light that even shadows bowed to. He was the enigma, the untouchable, The boy with cold eyes and a sharper tongue, The one every heart ached for, yet feared to reach. He was the thrill no one dared to claim, The heartbreak every girl still dreamt of. And then- Their worlds collided. Not in a planned, gentle way, But like fire meeting ice, Like destiny laughing at its own script. They fought, they teased, they resisted. But love? Love was merciless. It crept in, slow and stubborn, Until even the storm softened for the sunshine, And even the sunshine found her calm in the storm. For a moment in time, It felt like the world had bent its rules. They weren't two people anymore- They were one soul in two bodies, Breathing the same ache, Dreaming the same dream. But the world... The world doesn't forgive such lovers. It doesn't allow opposites to stay stitched together. History had warned them- Radha and Krishna loved, But they were never allowed a forever. And history repeated itself. He walked away. Just like Krishna had walked away once upon a time, Silent, merciless, leaving behind only memories. And she became Radha once more, Living not with him, But with the ghost of him, With the fragrance of a love That was too pure to survive this world. Ruhanika, the girl everyone adored, Now carried a smile stitched with pain. Hridav, the boy who owned every heart, Now lived as if untouched, unbroken- But somewhere, somewhere in his silence, He still carried her name. Because some stories don't have a happily ever after. Because some stories aren't written to be completed. Because some love is so eternal, It was never meant for this lifetime. #1 in goel #1 in adhuri #1 in kahaniComplete

Ruhanika Malhotra has never believed in destiny-especially not the kind that wears expensive suits and answers to the name Aarav Singhania. Back in high school, Aarav was her personal nightmare: the cold, arrogant topper who spoke less, judged more, and somehow always ended up on her nerves. Ruhanika, loud, opinionated, and unapologetically fiery, made it her mission to hate him just as passionately as he ignored her. Years later, fate decides to laugh. Now Aarav Singhania is a powerful CEO with a perfectly controlled life, a sharp mind, and absolutely no time for chaos. And Ruhanika? She walks straight into his office as his secretary-armed with sarcasm, confidence, and a personality that refuses to be toned down. She talks too much. He speaks too little. She challenges every rule. He Is The rule. Their days are filled with verbal sparring, accidental proximity, and a past that keeps resurfacing when they least expect it. Every argument feels personal. Every silence feels loaded. And somewhere between heated debates, late-night work sessions, and stolen glances that last a second too long, something shifts. Aarav starts noticing the fire he once dismissed. Ruhanika starts seeing the man behind the cold exterior. What begins as irritation turns into tension. Tension turns into chemistry. And chemistry turns into something neither of them planned for. Because some soulmates don't meet with soft smiles and love at first sight. They meet with attitude, unfinished business, and a whole lot of banter. A rom-com enemies-to-lovers story about a cold boss, a fiery heroine, high-school grudges, office chaos, and a love that refuses to stay professional. Ⓒ︎𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐝
