-The ones hiding behind masks need love the most-

Dressed up as a clown, poked and pointed at while acting goofy for the crowd, Jamil had learned to swallow bitter pills of need with a happy smile. No one saw his hurt, heard the inner growls of embarrassment and humiliation, as he worked to make the audience laugh. 

Smiling, goofing around and gifting balloons to children, he would be recognized as the youthful clown often seen in malls, on roads and near restaurant corners. However, no one saw the sad youth hiding behind the mask, sleeping in a shabby room after making everyone smile.

He was content in being depressed until he met her.

Enthralling Obsession by Vaniversetales
23 parts Ongoing Mature
Book 1 in (Unholy series) "You're behaving like a madman, Daksh," Ved's voice cut through the silence, filled with concern and disbelief. "Where do you think you'll find her? You don't even know her name, haven't seen her face. How can you be so sure about someone just by their touch and scent?" Daksh turned to face Ved, his eyes betraying a turmoil that ran deeper than any rational explanation could appease. "I can't explain it, Ved," he began, his voice laced with urgency. "The moment I felt her touch, breathed in her scent, it was like waking up from a dream I didn't know I was in. She's real, I know it." Ved shook his head slowly, as if struggling to comprehend. "No sane person would chase after someone based solely on touch and scent. There are plenty of other girl-" "But none of them are her," Daksh interjected, his tone firm, resolute. "I've never felt this way before. It's like she's imprinted on my soul. I crave her touch like a drowning man craves air." "I don't care what any sane person would say, because my sanity ended the moment I smelled her and touched her lips with mine." "I crave her intensely. I don't even know her name or how she looks, but her scent and touch intoxicate me, driving me to madness". "I can't say exactly when or how I got hooked on her, but one thing's for sure, she's the only thing I crave more than anything else in my life," "She has to come to me. It's not a choice; it's the only option. Whether she comes willingly or not, I know how to make her mine, even if I have to take her against her will," Daksh's eyes darkened with each word, his voice laced with an unsettling intensity. Let's see what fate has planned for Daksh and krina.

Not a Love Story

(Exactly what it sounds like. It's really not a love story. ) "Do you like me?" You're straight forward I forget that sometimes. I open the drink and look at it as if it were the most interesting thing in the world. I sigh, it's a habit now, and take a gulp. "So?" You ask again. I put the drink on a table next to your bed and sit properly. "I don't know." I say honestly. You didn't seem fazed but you did seem a bit confused. "What do you mean you don't know?" I shrug and decide that the floor is the next best thing to look at. "I like you." I laugh at this and see you don't. "Don't say that. You don't like me. You don't." I say as my smile fell and I looked to your eyes, mine were filled with sadness. But enjoy the book :)
