That marrying her would tie me to the minister whose word sways cabinets and commands kings. I was twenty-two, hungry and unshaken- A 𝒢𝒽𝒶𝒹𝓏𝒾 by name, born of legacy and cold-blooded business. So I agreed. To the alliance. To the girl. 𝒜𝓂𝑒𝑒𝓇𝒶 𝒮𝒾𝒹𝒹𝒾𝓆𝓊𝑒 𝒬𝓊𝒶𝓇𝑒𝒾𝓈𝒽𝒾. She was fifteen when they marked her as mine. Eighteen when we signed the nikkah. I never saw her-only the tremble of pale fingers, and the quiet grace in her signature beside mine. And then I left. Now, at the brink of becoming the youngest Chief Minister this state has ever seen, they say it's time to complete the picture. Time for her rukhsati. Time to claim the girl I never forgot to remember. She's the granddaughter of a man who could make me king. And somehow, she's also the one thing in this game that feels... undeserved.

But when duty binds me to Reyansh Raichand, a man cloaked in tradition and intrigue, I find myself ensnared in a charade of matrimony to protect those I hold dear. Reyansh, a titan of industry and a figure shrouded in mystery, holds the key to my freedom and my undoing. As we navigate the intricacies of our tangled union, the weight of expectation threatens to crush my spirit. Yet amidst the facade of compliance lies a truth that binds us-a child, a silent witness to our tumultuous love, and a chain that tethers me to Reyansh in ways I never imagined. Caught between the shadows of our fractured marriage and the secrets that threaten to tear us apart, I must find the strength to 𝒃𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆.
