Three rules. One soundproof wing. And a centuries-old royal debt.
Adyant Vardhan Rai is a thirty-year-old prince of the Rai lineage... ruling his ancestral Uttar Pradesh estate with tyrannical disgust.
Inika Sen is the eldest daughter of a family bound to the estate for generations.
She is forced to take the responsibility of a debt she didn't create.
She enters into the mansion's soundproof wing under a brutal contract, Inika is given three absolute rules: keep her gaze on the floor, serve his cruel self, and stay out the second the midnight alarm sounds.
Her family has guarded the Rai family's ugliest secrets for two centuries, but they have kept Inika completely blind to the horror waiting behind the doors.
A dark gothic story.
Trope: Elite old-money x generational servant dynamic, a genuinely unlikable hero, and a slow burn born in absolute isolation.
