Cherreads

Chapter 1 - 1. A life of luxury

The golden rays of the morning sun slipped through the velvet curtains of an upscale bedroom, gently falling on the sleeping face of Tanmay — handsome, charming, and effortlessly powerful. His mansion, tucked in the heart of the city, was a symbol of wealth and authority.

There was a softness in her soul that turned ordinary things into magic — and even though her world was calm now, her heart carried a storm of dreams, fears, and forgotten memories.

She took a deep breath and whispered to herself,

"One day... my lens will capture something unforgettable."

Little did she know, her next shot might be of someone who would change her entire life...

I know this chapter is short,
