The journey back to his palace feels longer than it should.
Or maybe it only feels that way because I am too aware of everything, of every passing second, of every small sound, of every thought that refuses to leave me alone.

The Second Time He Loved

Years ago, he was a young husband, still learning what it meant to care for someone. And just when he began to understand love, he lost it all. Ruhi โ his wife, his first true companion โ died giving birth to a child that never took a breath. Since then, Ishviq has lived not as a man, but as a shadow. Loyal. Quiet. Untouchable. He drowned himself in duty, rising through the palace ranks and becoming the most trusted man in Prince Rudraโs army. A soldier feared by many, respected by all โ and truly known by no one. Until Meera. A quiet palace maid, Meera never expected to catch Ishviqโs attention. But when her life begins to entangle with his โ through chance, through duty, through fate โ she sees the man behind the silence. The storm he never speaks of. The heartbreak heโs never healed from. And before she can stop herself, she falls for him. But loving a man like Ishviq isnโt easy. Especially when his heart still beats for a woman who no longer exists. Especially when heโs sworn never to let himself love again. What happens when love walks into a life thatโs already been buried once? Can a man whoโs forgotten how to feelโฆ still be someoneโs forever?
