❝Mummy, meri shaadi karvado.❞ Aditya Shrivastava had lived half of his life third-wheeling his friends and their partners. While they went on dates, he was debugging a hundred lines of code. While they got married, he was breaking sweat for an early promotion. Now they're all happy and settled, and he can't help but envy them. Getting a girl on his own was an impossible feat to achieve for Aditya. He couldn't even keep a stable eye contact with people of the opposite gender. Hence, he heavily relied on his mother to get him hitched. He was desperate for a life like his settled friends, unaware there's more to a relationship than book-y romance and cuddle nights. And when he crosses paths with Priya Mathur, the elder sister of the first potential bride he wishes to meet, his life goes spiralling in a whirlwind of sweet and sour love he hadn't expected himself to fall for.

He has more to himself than he lets on, his brutal reality hidden under his façade, all of it after surviving a traumatic experience that is darker than his black custom suits and haunts him every day. He doesn't expect anything more from life, having seen enough, but life has plans for him, one that involves a specific woman who may or may not change him completely. The 26-year-old beauty, Aahana Kapoor, is the daughter of a billionaire but not your snobby, rich bitch, rather sweet, fierce, and loyal. In her heart, she knew she was destined to marry Atharva from the very first time she saw his picture before their arranged marriage. So, what will happen when she realizes Atharva has no desire for women and avoids them like a plague under any and every circumstance? Will she be able to penetrate her way into his heart and slip under his skin? [UNEDITED]
