✧"I'd live through every second of it again... if it meant I'd still be 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓎𝑜𝓊." ✧ ⚜ Sebastian Holtman grew up in a house with more rules than laughter, polished floors and a continuous silence that he had grown used to. Cassian Holtman-a man of importance and high respect, and also known as his father-had always taught him that perfection was expected, emotions were a weakness, and questions were better left unanswered. So when an unexpected letter arrives on his eleventh birthday, informing him that he has been accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Sebastian finds himself stepping into a world far bigger than anything he had ever imagined. Magic, however, is the least of his worries. Because behind the moving staircases, enchanted portraits and centuries-old castle walls lie forgotten secrets, strange visions, and whispers that seem to know his name long before anyone else does. As the years pass, the line between truth and illusion begins to blur, friendships are forged in the unlikeliest of places, and Sebastian slowly discovers that some mysteries are buried for a reason. After all... Some stories begin with a letter. His began long before he was born. (Eventual Hermione Granger x Oc) *Disclaimer This is a fan-made work based on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter universe.

THE BOSS'S UNPLANNED BRIDE He wanted a perfectly organized life. She was the definition of chaos. And somehow... she became his wife. Yugvansh Mittal is everything a boss should be-strict, disciplined, intimidating, and absolutely allergic to unnecessary conversations. Anvisha Sinha is everything he cannot tolerate-talkative, cheerful, dramatic, occasionally clumsy, and completely incapable of keeping her thoughts to herself. As his personal assistant, Anvisha has somehow survived his impossible schedules, terrifying stares, endless coffee demands, and his legendary "Be on time." But one ordinary morning, a marriage proposal changes everything. Anvisha doesn't want the marriage. Yugvansh certainly doesn't plan on marrying his talkative PA. Yet when family expectations, unexpected circumstances, and a twist neither of them saw coming bring them to the mandap... the boss gets an unplanned bride. Meanwhile, Riaan Raivansh-the charming singer and Yugvansh's best friend-is perfectly capable of turning any peaceful moment into complete chaos. And then there's Ravisha Jha. A talented chef with a quiet world of her own, she doesn't need words to express what she feels. Her eyes, expressions, and little gestures say more than enough. One is a charming yapper. One is a quiet listener. And somewhere between music, food, friendship, family drama, office chaos, and an unexpected marriage... four lives are about to change forever. Because sometimes... the person you never planned for becomes the person destiny never planned to let you escape. Welcome to a story of arranged marriage, boss × PA, opposites attract, friendship, family chaos, music, food, and an unplanned love story. This is not the marriage Yugvansh wanted. This is not the life Anvisha planned. But maybe... it is exactly the story they were meant to live. 💗😭🫶🏻
