Meenakshi strings flowers, yes, that's all she is, a flower girl. She is just a pair of hands in a palace that has never once looked down to see whose hands make the beauty it wears so carelessly. She has watched the one everyone fears in the whole Mahishmati, Bhallaladeva, the Yuvaraj, from behind a pillar for years. She has counted his heartbeats from across a court hall, and she has chosen night-blooming jasmine for his wedding garland because it blooms only in the dark, and she has never met anything lonelier. All she was supposed to do was hand the garland to the priest and disappear. Yes, that's all, but instead the crowd pushed the one wearing simple cotton clothes holding the garland as life, along with the priest who was blind and the stars which would not wait. And now she is locked in a ceremonial chamber until sunrise with a man the entire kingdom calls a monster, bound by sacred thread and the most beautiful garland she has ever made, the one she made for him, the one she poured her heart into without ever admitting why. Now he is furious, and she is terrified, and the night is long, very long. And somewhere between the silence and the wine and the jasmine blooming deeper in the dark, the monster starts to crack.

"She was sent to make peace. He wanted to burn her kingdom to ashes. But she became the fire he couldn't extinguish." In the 1700s, Rajputana was at war for a hundred years. Rivers of blood between them. And a princess was sent as a peace offering to the most dangerous king in the land. MEERABAI, Princess of Mewar. Raised to be a queen and trained to fight, she was sent to die. VEER SINGH, King of Marwar. They call him the Butcher. He watched her kingdom murder his parents. Now he wants revenge, and she's the perfect weapon. Her wedding was in a horse stable, and her bridal clothes were a widow's white, as her husband called her his prisoner. But Meera doesn't break. She refuses to kneel before his throne. She saves his life when assassins strike. She picks up a sword and fights beside his warriors. She commands his army when he falls in battle. "Aap mujhe qaid keh sakte hain, Maharaj. Par yaad rakhiye, chhoti si chingari bhi pure jungle mein aag laga deti hai. Main woh chingari hoon." (You can call me prisoner, Your Majesty. But remember, even a small spark can set an entire forest ablaze. I am that spark.) He wanted to destroy her. She destroyed every wall around his frozen heart. He wanted a prisoner. He got a queen.

✨Book Description✨ In the glittering world of wealth and legacy, Shaurya Surveer, a 30-year-old billionaire with power sprawling across continents, lives behind layers of silence and shadows. Ruthless in business and reclusive in nature, he carries a darkness that no fortune can heal-a haunting past buried beneath his cold gaze and carefully tailored suits. On the other side of the city's skyline is Sitaara Dhiwan, a 23-year-old self-made millionaire whose world smells of sugar, spice, and everything resilience. A renowned baker with a chain of opulent patisseries, she hides her scars behind frosted cupcakes and warm smiles. Estranged from her own family, she lives alone-not by choice, but by betrayal. When fate begins to meddle with well-laid plans, Shaurya's grandparents arrange his marriage to a girl of their choosing. But destiny, with its twisted sense of timing, intervenes-and Sitaara becomes the replaced bride. Two strangers. Two broken hearts. One unexpected union. What begins as a mere accident of fate soon turns into a tale of passion, secrets, redemption, and a love that neither of them saw coming.
