A wedding. A betrayal. A life stolen. Aarav never expected his return to his ancestral village to be anything more than his sister's wedding, family traditions, and a month away from city life. But when his twin sister, Aanya, vanishes the night before her engagement ceremony, everything changes. Left behind with only her discarded bridal jewelry and a family desperate to protect their honor, Aarav finds himself caught in a nightmare he never saw coming. When the powerful and unforgiving Vikram Rathore arrives demanding to meet his bride, the family makes a terrifying decision. Aanya is gone. But Aarav remains. Forced into his sister's place, dressed in the silk and gold meant for her, he must become Aanya-or risk the wrath of a man who does not take betrayal lightly. How long can he keep up the deception? Will he ever reclaim his identity? Or will Veil of Deception become the story of a man who was never meant to be a bride... but had no choice?
