"Don't fall for me," I warned, my voice low.
"Me? In love with you?" she laughed, a mocking sound that cut sharper than any blade. "Oh, you're so delusional, Reyaan. This is a contractual marriage, remember? I will never fall for you-not in a billion years."
Her words snapped something inside me-something dark and reckless.
And her eyes, those perfect shades of brown, gleamed with a silent challenge.
"Not in a billion years, huh?" I echoed, my voice dangerously soft. "Is that a challenge, Brownie?"
I took slow, deliberate strides toward her.
"Because I never lose one," I whispered against her ear, pinning her against the elevator wall, feeling her sharp intake of breath as I caged her in.
JIA NIKITA KHURANA
She was broken-ruined until she no longer recognized herself.
Once a girl full of sunshine, now a storm.
Once dreaming of a Prince Charming, now believing herself utterly unlovable.
She had sworn off love, scoffed at the idea of marriage.
Until destiny, the master manipulator twisted her life on its cruel axis.
Now Jia, the girl who vowed never to marry, finds herself trapped in a marriage she never wanted.
And her husband?
An arrogant, emotionless, cold-blooded, maddeningly handsome billionaire born with a permanent poker face.
REYAAN SHAHVEER
He was broken before he even had the chance to be whole.
Wounded by those meant to love him.
He loathed the idea of love hollow, treacherous, temporary.
He swore he'd never let anyone close enough to destroy him.
Marriage? Commitment? Love?
A joke.
But fate has a cruel sense of humor.
Now Reyaan, who trusted no one and needed no one, is bound by contract and vows to a girl who screams danger from ten miles away...
A danger he knows he should avoid,
Yet can't seem to stay away from.
