When two strangers cross paths, neither expects the kind of spark that could set their world on fire. Rishi Sehgal isn't just a man-he's a presence. A London-born heartthrob with deep roots in Delhi and Hyderabad, he walks the tightrope between old-world charm and modern grace. At 27, he's built a life many only dream of-confident, magnetic, and always in control. But even he can't predict what happens when fate throws him into Aarna's orbit. Aarna Hegde is a storm wrapped in sunshine. The youngest daughter of one of Hyderabad's wealthiest families, she's spoiled, yes-but self-aware, razor-sharp, and never sorry about who she is. She doesn't chase trouble. She is trouble-with a smile that stings and eyes that dare. Their worlds collide at the bachelorette of Aarna's sister and Rishi's cousin in Hyderabad. For Rishi, it's another family event. For Aarna, it's her spotlight. But between stolen glances and teasing sparks, something real begins to rise. He wasn't planning to stay. She wasn't looking for anything real. But love doesn't ask-it entangles, it tests, it ties knots around hearts and refuses to let go. And as wedding season spins on, so does their fate-twisting, burning, binding. They were never looking for love... But sometimes love finds you. Wild, messy, electric-and impossible to undo.

Book-5 Lord Vishnu says, "In your eyes, I see the reflection of eternity. In your touch, I feel the warmth of a thousand lifetimes." One night was all it took. One mistake. One moment that shouldn't have meant anything-yet somehow, it changed everything. Krish Oberoi, the eldest son of the powerful Oberoi family, he never loses control. His reputation is spotless, his business instincts razor-sharp, and his demeanor so composed, it borders on untouchable. Nothing fazes him-until her. Ira Yadav doesn't believe in fairy tales. As the sole provider for her family, she doesn't have the luxury of chasing dreams, least of all ones that involve a billionaire with a voice like silk and eyes that see far too much. She knows better than to get involved. But, how can she ever avoid her boss? Before, she even realised it. Krish was in her path again, effortless and unreadable as ever, except for one thing: he wants her. And He is not a man who walks away from what he wants. Even if it means reshaping her world into something she never imagined, and his into something even he can't control. - - - "So, let me get this straight-you want me to fake-date you just to keep your board off your back?" "Starting tomorrow, you're mine-on paper, at least. Think you can handle that, Miss Yadav." - - - Author : Lily

"See a future with him, pretend to move on... but when it's time to become a bride, it'll be for me. You can hate me all you want, but my name will be in your fate." The monitor backstage buzzed with Swaraj Malhotra's voice, slick with self-satisfaction. "Dhananjay Singhania ke paas na toh bahu hai, na hi bahumat." I almost pitied them. Almost. "Sir?" my aide whispered. "We're live in two." I smiled, not the charming kind they use for posters, the other one . the kind that didn't reach my eyes. The kind that meant someone was about to regret underestimating me. The one that makes my team nervous. Because they know when I smile like that, it means I'm about to ruin someone's perfectly planned day. I walked up to the stage, every step measured. The anthem played. Composure is a crown, and I wear mine well. The Chief Justice handed me the Constitution, his expression solemn. "Repeat after me." as he gestured me forward, the Constitution opened before him. I raised my right hand. "Main Dhananjay Singhania..." My voice echoed back through the hall, too calm, too rehearsed. I could already imagine Swaraj watching this on his fancy LED, smug and proud of his own line. "Main Dhananjay Singhania, shapat leta hoon ki main apne pad ke kartavya..." The words droned on, heavy and holy. Every syllable was a performance loyalty, integrity, service. Funny. Everyone in this room had sold those words long ago. And then I saw her. Front row. White saree. Minimal makeup. Hair tied loose. Sitting right in front , her father's daughter, my rival's pride. I forgot the cameras. The promises. The Politics. "Bahumat toh mil gayi..." I said into the microphone, pausing deliberately. The Chief Justice froze. The crowd murmured. My security chief mouthed something that looked suspiciously like "sir please don't-" Too late. "Ab bas bahu ki kami thi." In one sentence, I did two things - proposed to my rival's daughter and declared a war.

"You little liar," he breathes. "You want me to make it hurt." My heart skips a beat. "Don't lie to me Aira. You like it rough." I do. But I am not going to tell him that. "You will ruin me." I almost whimper, my head falling back to his chest as his hand squeezes my neck almost stealing my ability to breath. "I will," He pauses, his other hand skillfully kneading my breast. "I will ruin you with every single fucked up part of me." And it's not just a threat - he will make sure he turns it into my reality.
