The Man In Her Shadow
The introduction of The Hive ^~^
Arpita grew into a quiet girl with observant eyes. Xavier grew into something sharper.
By sixteen, she found an app called Mangatoon— a world of stories, chats, role-plays, and people hiding behind usernames. It was the perfect place for someone who had learned early that reality was unsafe.
She created a group chat.
At first, it was just a small circle of readers and dreamers.
Xavier – 20 years old (inside her mind, believing he is two years older than her)
The group was created when Arpita was 16.
Everyone believed Xavier was a man.
A cold, intelligent, slightly dangerous man.
They never imagined the “The Hive” was created by a 16-year-old girl typing from a dimly lit bedroom.
The group quieted the moment the green dot appeared beside his name.
He didn’t announce himself.
Dam
The Hive is finally online
Luna
Xavier I sent you that edit did you see???
Three messages. Five seconds.
He hated repeating himself.
He hated when people forgot who led this place
And everyone knew the warning phrase.
Because when Arpita and Xavier aligned — when both personalities shared the same irritation — it wasn’t just cold.

Yours truly Authy
So it's kinda inspired by My Boss and his love story 😄 so if there is something you want to change you can Comment it
Yours truly Authy
Ik I won't let you guys make it bored
Yours truly Authy
So if you by chance see a scene which looks like your chat just close your eyes and imagine i didn't write it 😂😂😂
Yours truly Authy
Also some of his or other characters will be different i can't write it like his own character still there will be my own ideas
Yours truly Authy
^~^ have a beautiful day/night..
Cassius Entry
There was the contradiction.
If someone close had family problems?
He’d move them to private chat.
If someone close was crying?
He’d chat/call
If someone felt alone?
He’d stay up.
But he protected his people.
And that’s why they clung to him.
When he pushes them away..
The admirers were exhausting.
Single Girls in the GC who had admired him, at some point, confessed to Xavier.
He rejected them with surgical precision.
Cassius has entered the chat
For two days, Cassius observed.
Which made Xavier notice him.
Cassius
The Hive huh? Sounds like villain energy.
Xavier
I don’t need to sound like one.
Cassius
Oh? So you are one?
Xavier
Depends who’s asking.
Cassius
Cassius. Professional troublemaker
Xavier smirked behind the screen.
Yours truly Authy
Ahem so don't freak out it's just my imagination...
Yours truly Authy
In this story Mangatoon does have online/offline tag -.-
Yours truly Authy
Where everyone can see if someone is online
Yours truly Authy
So have a beautiful read kiddos
Fake Proposal
Three days later, Xavier made a decision.
The admirers were getting out of control again.
Private Chat – Xavier & Cassius
Xavier
I need a fake lover.
Cassius
You proposing already? We just met.
Xavier
Don’t be dramatic.
Just play along in GC.
Male x male. Keeps girls away.
Cassius
So I’m your shield?
Cassius stared at the screen.
The softness hidden behind sharp replies.
Xavier was protecting someone.
Cassius
Babe, you didn’t reply to my message.
Cassius
You’re carrying my child and still have attitude?
Xavier
Your child? It’s mine.
Cassius
Oh? So I’m the mother now?
The GC exploded with laughter.
Yours truly Authy
