"You don't look like someone who survived." Nivansh Mehra is control wrapped in silence-power earned, respect demanded. The country knows his name, his discipline, his empire. What it doesn't know is how deeply he hides what he feels, or how little it takes to break his composure when the past stands in front of him. "Survival doesn't always leave marks you can see." Adhira Sharma is restraint shaped by pain. Quiet, observant, carrying strength that never asks for sympathy. She doesn't explain her scars or seek understanding. She simply exists-changed, guarded, and done with believing that love is gentle. They don't meet as who they were. They stand as who life forced them to become. And some truths are louder when left unsaid.

She never dreamt of marrying young. She dreamt of finishing her college, singing infront of the whole world , and living a quiet life. But fate had other plans.

While her husband treats her like a stranger... his family embraces her with warmth. His grandmother pampers her, his sister becomes her best friend, and his mother shields her from his temper. Caught between the love of her in-laws and the coldness of her husband, Meher finds herself slowly breaking through Veer's walls... but at what cost? Because in his dark world, love isn't just a weakness. It's deadly.

She laughed with someone else- and his entire world snapped. He didn't speak. just walked over, wrapped an arm around her waist, pulled her back into him.

"How dare you touch me?" she shouted, losing her senses. she was about to get up from the couch when he held back my neck and brought her back to the position and roared in a dangerously calm voice " NOT ONLY TOUCH I HAVE ALL FUCKING RIGHTS TO FUCK YOU HARD WHENEVER, WHEREVER I WANT. GET THIS IN YOUR HEAD." "What are you doing?" he questioned, trying to calm himself, but it came out in a harsh tone. "I won't sleep with you and you fucking don't touch me" she asserted with a voice full of demand. He took slow steps towards her, which resulted in her moving back.

𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 ' 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 In a world that screams, I stand in despair, My voice drowned out, lost in the air. Chains of tradition tighten each day, I long to escape, but I'm forced to stay. Each breath I take feels heavy and torn, Every mistake a scar I've worn. I crave a sky where I can be free, Away from the walls that imprison me. For now, I sit with my heart in pain, Silent, yet screaming, again and again. Though shattered, a spark in me still survives, Dreaming of freedom where my soul can rise.

"I want to run from the city I once dreamed of living in... all because of a man.A man who's a mafia lord. A CEO. And my obsessive stalker. I know I can't escape from reality. And in reality he has all the ability to find me from anywhere." - Tiara "She is mine. She just doesn't know it yet.She owns the heart of a mafia - I saw her , fall for her and even wait for her to grow up. So after everything if I have to cage her to keep her, I will." - Rudraveer She's a sweet,bubbly Bengali artist. He's a cold, possessive Punjabi mafia lord. She dreams in colors. He moves in shadows. She wants freedom. He wants her-only her. Two opposite worlds. One dangerous obsession. And a love story twisted with power, passion, and pain. 🔞 A small warning: This story may contain mature themes, strong language, and smut. So if that makes you uncomfortable, feel free to skip it - no hard feelings. Also, Rudraveer can act like a psychopath sometimes. Yes, he's dangerous. Yes, there's violence. But there will be reasons for everything, I promise. Let's start this rollercoaster now. I hope you feel all the love, chaos, and intensity I poured into it. Thank you for being here.
