The Story I Never Meant to Write - Chapter 6

 


Chapter 6: The Storm Before the Sunrise

The calm was over.

A new storm had begun — and this time, it wasn’t just inside Aditi or Aditya.
It was everywhere.

The Reveal

It began with a single leak.

A well-known literary blogger posted a breaking article:
“KVS is none other than Aditi Mehra, daughter-in-law of the Singhania Empire!”

In minutes, it went viral.

Headlines exploded across the internet:

"Business Tycoon’s Wife is the Mysterious Bestselling Author!"
"KVS: A Secret Hidden in Plain Sight!"

Aditi’s photos, past interviews, and comparisons to her books flooded the media.
Every news anchor wanted her story.
Every publisher wanted her face.

Her phone wouldn’t stop ringing. Her social media was flooded.
And her peaceful, private world — shattered.

The Family’s Reaction

At the Singhania mansion, chaos erupted.

Aditya’s father was furious.
“You’ve embarrassed this family! You kept this hidden from us?”

Aditya tried to explain, “She just wanted her space. Her freedom. She didn’t lie — she protected her peace.”

But no one was listening.

Aditi, for the first time in days, looked truly shaken. Not because the world knew…
But because the people closest to her — her own family — didn’t stand beside her.

Except one.

Aditya.

He looked around the room and said, clearly and firmly:

“If you can’t be proud of her, I will be.
She built a name on her own, without using anyone’s influence.
That’s not shameful. That’s inspiring.”

The room fell silent.

So did Aditi.

Riya’s Move

As Aditi fought one battle, another one came knocking.

Riya held a press conference.

“Yes,” she said into the camera, “Aditya and I were in love. Even during his wedding. He told me it was a contract marriage. It was never real. I was supposed to wait for him.”

The media jumped on it.
“Love Triangle Exposed?”
“Aditya’s Wife Speaks Through Fiction, But Ex-Girlfriend Speaks With Truth!”

Riya’s aim was simple: humiliate Aditi, shake the Singhanias, and win Aditya back.

Aditya’s Decision

That night, Aditya sat alone in his room, staring at the contract they had once signed.

Three years. No emotions. No closeness. No interference.

He tore it into pieces.

Then he walked to Aditi’s room. She was sitting by the window again, just like the first night.

He placed the torn paper on her desk.

“I’m done following this,” he said.

She looked at him, stunned.

“We made that contract to protect ourselves from each other,” he continued. “But now… I don’t want to be protected. I want to be real.”

Aditi didn’t speak. Her eyes glistened.

Aditya stepped closer. “You don’t have to say anything tonight. I just wanted you to know — I’m with you. No matter what the world says. Even if you never love me back… I will still stand next to you.”

Her eyes finally met his. Quiet. Emotional. Searching.

For once, no words were needed.

Unspoken Sparks - Chapter 6 (Last Episode)

  Chapter 6: The Confession & The New Beginning The tension in Raychand Industries had reached its limit. Rumors swirled. Whispers about Aditya and Aditi grew louder. Some speculated. Some envied. But Aditi stayed focused, as always—poised, distant, dedicated. Except now, her heart wasn't as quiet as her face. And neither was Aditya’s. He saw her in everything. In every decision. Every plan. Every moment of silence. Her absence made the air feel heavier. Her presence? Like calm fire. He had denied it for weeks. But now… he couldn’t anymore. That Friday Evening – Office Rooftop Aditi had just wrapped up late-night reporting. The office was nearly empty, and the city lights sparkled in the distance. She stepped out to the rooftop for a breath of air. What she didn’t expect… was him. Aditya stood there, sleeves rolled up, no phone in hand—for once. Just… waiting. He turned as she approached. “You’re still here?” she asked. “I was waiting for you,” he said softly....

🖤 The Monster Inside Me 🖤 - Chapter 5 (Second Last) [“He thought he was a monster—until she looked into his darkness and chose to stay.”]

  Chapter 5: The Monster’s Voice Silence. That’s what Aditi chose after walking out of Aditya’s penthouse. Not the dramatic kind. The real kind — the kind that hurts more than any scream could. No calls. No messages. No replies. Nothing. And Aditya… he let her go. Not because he didn’t want her. But because he wasn’t sure he deserved her. It had been four days. Four long, echoing, manuscript-free days. Aditya sat in his study, the room heavy with memories and ghosts that had grown louder since Aditi left. Her absence was not quiet — it thundered in every corner she used to sit, in every coffee cup that remained untouched. So he did what he had always done with pain. He wrote. But this time, it wasn’t a book. It was a letter. A manuscript with no chapters, no structure, no edits. Just a title: “The Girl Who Dared to Touch the Monster” 📓 Excerpts from the letter: “I never told you, Aditi, but your voice made the screaming inside me quieter.” “You didn’t...

🖤 The Monster Inside Me 🖤 - Chapter 6 (Last) [“He thought he was a monster—until she looked into his darkness and chose to stay.”]

  Chapter 6: Our Monsters Can Coexist Final Chapter Healing isn’t a sunrise. It’s a dim lightbulb that flickers. A hallway that echoes with memories. A slow dance with shadows that sometimes lead, sometimes follow. But when Aditi and Aditya began again — this time, it wasn’t about fixing each other. It was about accepting that maybe... they were never broken to begin with. Just bruised . And still beautiful. 🌅 One Month Later: Aditi moved into Aditya’s penthouse — not because she needed a place, but because he needed her in his. It wasn’t romance that brought her there. It was presence . Some mornings were silent — both typing, heads down, coffee cups clinking now and then. Other days were stormy — Aditya still woke up drenched in nightmares, still sat at the piano with eyes closed, fingers trembling. But now, when he broke... She was there to hold him. Not to fix. Just to hold. 🛋️ Their Therapist Asked Once: “How do you define your relationship?” Aditi...
