Our Contract Engagement Ends Soon

ObsidianOrbs
The life of a manager is never easy, especially if the artists you are managing have a knack for getting into trouble with the media. Adding an unwanted husband to this mixture would surely bring nothing but chaos into her already hectic life Therefore, Demi, a pragmatic young lady, knew that rather than crying over her problems, it was better to find a quick solution. When a sudden marriage proposal landed on her lap, she knew that she had to do her best to avoid finding herself in a troublesome situation. Thankfully, the man chosen by the elders seemed to disagree with these arrangements just as much as she did. Contract marriages were quite common in their social circles so when Demi proposed a contract engagement instead, the man readily agreed. For two years now, they had pretended to be a loving pair while meeting their relatives yet could not stand each other when they were alone. The perfect couple aura around them was nothing but a calculated move, an act to please them. Now as the end of the contract comes closer, Demi was worried how her elders would react. Will they accept that her engagement was nothing but a sham? Will she be able to cope with the guilt that she had tricked her favorite elder? However, more than these thoughts, what worried her the most was the unexpected change in the man's behavior towards her and their engagement. "What if I say this engagement cannot end this way?" The man who had cornered her, whispered in her ear, sending shivers down her sensitive spine. Unsure of how to respond, Demi could only look into those dark eyes which were now staring right back at her. Why did he seem so reluctant to put an end to this pretense when he was the one who had personally drafted their contract in the first place? Will Demi be able to peacefully break off this engagement when the contract ends? Or will that man hold onto her so that she never escapes his clutches? NOTICE: This is a trial book!!!

Reincarnated as Duryodhana in Mahabharata

Aditya was just an ordinary young man from the modern world — until a sudden accident ended his life and sent his soul into the body of Suyodhana, the eldest prince of Hastinapur. In this new life he is the boy history will one day call Duryodhana — the cursed prince fated to start the greatest war the world has ever seen. But Aditya is not alone. A mysterious Karma System has come with him, rewarding every kind choice and warning him when darkness creeps too close. Armed with his twenty-first-century knowledge and a burning desire to change the future, Suyodhana sets out to rewrite the tragic story of the Mahabharata. He heals his father Dhritarashtra’s blind eyes, wins the true loyalty of the mighty Karna and the forest archer Eklavya, and gathers his young friends in a quest to stop the bloody Kurukshetra war before it can begin. Yet destiny is far more stubborn than he imagined. As Suyodhana and his companions journey through glowing mountains, face ancient trials of the heart, and challenge the will of gods and sages, a deeper shadow begins to stir. Something far more dangerous than the coming war hides in the forgotten corners of this world — an ancient evil that the old legends never dared to name. Will Suyodhana truly become the hero who saves everyone he loves? Or will the heavy name of Duryodhana slowly pull him back into the darkness he is trying to escape? A tale of friendship, second chances, and cosmic fate — where one boy’s modern heart must decide whether he will break the chains of destiny… or become the very monster the world already fears.
