╰----➜ Ashvi's life changed forever when she lost her mother at the tender age of seven. Not long after, her father remarried. Her new stepmother brought along two children of her own - a ten-year-old boy and a six-year-old girl. From the very beginning, they resented Ashvi. Perhaps it was because her father's heart still belonged to his daughter more than anyone else. In a house that should've been her safe haven, Ashvi became a stranger - a silent observer of a love that never reached her. Then one day, fate took another unexpected turn. It was her wedding day. And yet, Ashvi had no idea she was about to be married. Her life was about to be entwined with that of Siddharth - Asia's youngest billionaire. A man with power, wealth, and influence... but not with her heart. Ashvi didn't like Siddharth. And Siddharth? He didn't care. Their marriage was meant to be just for appearances - a bond only in the eyes of the world, not in their hearts. But time has a way of challenging even the strongest decisions. Slowly, silently, and unexpectedly... what began as a hollow arrangement turned into something real. Something deep. Something that proved they were both wrong about love.

ABHYANSH SINGH RANAWAT, the most feared man in the country, was crowned at the tender age of 14, exposed to all the cruelty power-hungry people threw at him to obtain the throne and he reciprocated all the cruelty with triple force to keep the power and protect his people. Kindness, compassion, sympathy, and forgiveness have no place in his reign. He not only is a king by birth but by profession, runs multi-billion dollar companies, across the world which operate Ajmer as the base as he wants to stay in his palace close to his kingdom and people. Despite the country's independence 75 years ago, the place still follows monarchy and for the people, he is the king. No one ever saw him displaying any emotion, some call him a cold monster, some call him a living form of destruction, and many other names but the most prominent one among them is THE ROYAL BEAST. The one name that could send shivers to any human taking breath on earth. ISHA RAJPUT, the kind princess of Mewar, home-schooled since childhood, has always dreamed of having friends, spending time with them, sharing problems, and having someone to stand up for her.

The day she hoped she would finally get freedom from her palace where she is caged for over 15 years, she is thrown into another cage, this time forever.

"don't look at me with those eyes Ms Singh otherwise I will loose myself to you ". He said and landed forward our lips so close but still that strength of kissing each other wasn't. "You know advik ,you already loosed yourself when you said that if anything like love existed then you would have fallen for me ,like they way no one did ". I told him as my hand moved to his cheeks. "Exactly,But that felling of love doesn't exist in reality". He told me "Fuck ,then what about those feelings which you are having for me "? "I don't know what I feel for you Radhika". He said as he crassed my taato which was on my neck . "You know what it's good that you are leaving advik ,I thought that you were just trying to run away from things but no there's nothing like that ! I was the one who thought that you are changing because of me ,even I thought that I have found my one but know I was so wrong, so wrong because I fall for wrong human ! You really don't deserve this advik ". I told him and tried to go away but he holded me back , "If there's something in your heart for me then I will suggest you to forget me ,and look forward for someone who can love you madly ,who can take care of you ,you should look for someone of whom you will be not scared of radhika" "I know that you are not perfect and so I but you what advik what makes both of us best is us being not perfect and then also I can guarantee you that we are so perfect together with our imperfections." She said and passed me her smile which I saw very first time ,teary eyes with peaceful smile. I didn't said anything and stepped more closer to her ,she closed her eyes making her tears travel down her cheeks but before that can happen I cleaned them and kissed her on forehead. "Trust me , I don't know about anything but only thing I am aware is you are going to be there in my mind till my last breath and I hope you forget me the moment I leave India ".
