No, Aadyan killed me in the slowest, cruelest way possible. He made me his. It wasn't a choice. It never was. He kissed me like a claim, like a war, like a grave I'd never crawl out of. He kissed me like he'd breathe me in, just to tear me apart from the inside. And when he pulled away? He smirked. Like he'd just set me on fire and dared me to beg for the burn. That was the moment I realized-I could run, I could fight, I could bleed. But I'd never be free. Because this man, this monster... He would never let me go. .・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。. AADYAN ZAVERI She thinks she can escape me. She thinks I'll let her go. But my little rebel doesn't understand. I don't let go of what's mine. Not when she fights me. Not when she hates me.

She sat straighter, pretending her heartbeat wasn't thundering in her ears. "So you're from Rishikesh, huh?" He leaned back again. His eyes gleamed with coldness. "So tell me, Miss Rishikesh... why should I hire you?" Her throat went dry, but she forced her words out. "Sir, my main focus will be on growth and development of the company-" He raised one eyebrow, cutting her sentence like a blade. "By fighting with the CEO?"

Aria was never loved-only tolerated. A gifted writer reduced to a pretty presence in her own home, she lived in the shadows of a favored sister and the quiet cruelty of a brother who despised her. Her parents buried her dreams, her words locked away in notebooks no one ever read. Smiling in public, breaking in silence-until one tragic night ended her life. Or so she believed. Aria wakes up the next morning in a sleek, high-tech office... alive. Same face. Different aura. A body that looks like hers, but belongs to a powerful world she has never known. Reborn into a life of influence, money, and secrets, Aria is suddenly no longer invisible-and this time, she refuses to stay silent. Enter Reyansh Raichand. A 27-year-old genius heart surgeon, emotionally distant, painfully disciplined, and famously untouchable. Publicly, he's a medical prodigy. Secretly, he's the owner of Relive Hospital, one of the most prestigious hospitals in the world. Reyansh never wanted to be a doctor-his dreams were chosen for him by parents who were too busy to notice the child they were raising. Success gave him everything... except warmth. Two unfinished dreams. One unexpected collision. What begins as sharp banter, accidental meetings, and chaotic misunderstandings soon turns into something neither of them planned-comfort, laughter, healing, and a love that feels terrifyingly new. With no past lovers, no emotional baggage between them, they become each other's first-first love, first trust, first home. This is a light-hearted comedy romance filled with witty moments, slow-burn chemistry, hidden identities, and emotional healing-where the past stays in the past, families remain off-stage, and choosing yourself is the real happily ever after. Because sometimes, the heart needs a new life to learn how to beat again.
