A Dark Romance Story where love isn't soft... it's consuming. ✦ ───────── ✦ ❀ ✦───────── ✦ She looked into his eyes, her heart racing, her voice trembling yet filled with an unspoken longing. "Make me yours, Professor," she whispered, like a confession she could no longer hold back. He didn't look away. His gaze stayed fixed on hers-cold, distant, and guarded. A man who had already loved once... and lost. After a heavy silence, he finally spoke, his voice low and firm, "I can't... not in this lifetime." ✦ ─────── ✦ ❀ ✦ ────── ✦ ✦ 𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐒 ✦ 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐫 × 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐀𝐠𝐞 𝐆𝐚𝐩 (7 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬) 𝐆𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐲 × 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 & 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞...

Atharv Rajvansh says yes to Astha, her identical twin, the alliance that keeps empires intact. Then comes a wedding, and the wrong bride becomes fate's chosen scandal. She wears vows never meant for her skin. He, older, silent, merciless in restraint, has wanted her for years. Not gently. Not publicly. Like devotion sharpened into possession. One man offers safety. One man offers surrender. And when she tries to walk back to the life she chose, a shadow moves the pieces, because some obsessions are written long before fate dares to intervene. 🔥 𝐓𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐬 🔥 ˚˚˚˚˚˚˚˚˚˚ 🤍 Introvert × Extrovert ✓ ❤️ Silent × Sunshine ✓ 💚 Green flag MMC ✓ 🖤 Right person, wrong time ✓ 🤎Unexpected/Secret marriage ✓ 💛 Brother's bestfriend ✓ ★Be still, the storm is just brewing.
