In 1800s Awadh, marriages were for honor - not love. Avantika became the wife of Virendra Thakur, a powerful zamindar, widower, and father of two, knowing her place was bound by duty. On their wedding night, he told her she would have the respect of his household... but nothing of his heart. Yet respect cannot quiet longing. In the candlelit halls of the haveli, every stolen glance, every brush of his hand, and every night spent under the same roof only deepened the ache between them. And in the stillness of those nights, where power and pride ruled the day, they fought a private war - of desire, restraint, and unspoken truths. **** Will Avantika melt the walls around his heart... or will she be consumed by her own yearning? When respect, pride, and forbidden passion collide - what will win? Most important... will she survive being The Thakurain?

A widowed father. A veiled princess. A marriage born out of duty-blossoming into destiny. Mrityunjay Rajvanshi is a man of silence and scars. A powerful CEO from Varanasi, he hides his pain behind discipline and devotion-especially for his little son, Karthik. When societal pressure pushes him to remarry, he agrees-for Karthik, not for love. Meera is a vision of grace-raised behind palace walls in Thrissur, trained in dance and silence. Behind her demure smile lies a royal lineage and a goddess-like power she's never had to unleash-until fate binds her to Mrityunjay. In a world where ancient bloodlines still whisper secrets and pride is a currency, Meera enters a hostile household with nothing but resilience and love. But when danger touches Karthik, she awakens as something far more than a wife-something divine. As their bond deepens and desire ignites behind closed doors, a shadow from the past rises. Sree, Meera's missing best friend, vanished without a trace... and holds a secret that could unravel everything. From the sacred temples of Kerala to the burning rain of Varanasi, this is a tale of love that begins in silence and ends in storm. A love story carved in fate, drenched in tradition, and touched by the gods.

In a kingdom where beauty and power dictate worth, Princess Evelyne has always been the forgotten one. Overshadowed by her radiant sisters, dismissed by her own family, and treated as nothing more than an afterthought, she has learned to live in the shadows-silent, invisible, and aching for something more. But when the feared and ruthless Dark King arrives to choose a bride, no one expects him to spare Evelyne a second glance. He is a man of legend-shrouded in mystery, draped in power, and said to have a heart as cold as the night itself. The court watches, breathless, as he surveys the dazzling princesses before him. And then, he chooses her. Whispers ripple through the halls. Shock turns to outrage. Why would the Dark King-a man who could have anyone-claim the overlooked, unwanted daughter? But as Evelyne is whisked away to his shadowed kingdom, she begins to uncover the truth. The Dark King sees what no one else ever has-her strength, her resilience, the fire beneath the quiet. And in his arms, beneath the weight of his intense gaze, Evelyne is no longer invisible. She is his. But as darkness looms and enemies gather, Evelyne must decide-will she forever remain the forgotten princess, or will she rise as the Dark Queen, feared and revered beside the man who saw her worth when no one else did?
