In a world of silk gowns, inherited wealth, and unspoken rules, perfection is a performance-and no one performs better than her. Married into a prestigious aristocratic family, she's the model wife: elegant, composed, and quietly intelligent. For eight years, she endures the subtle cruelty of high society, the cold dismissiveness of her parents, and the calculated apathy of a husband who only sees her as a social asset. She plays her part-until the day she walks in on him in bed with her younger sister. But this betrayal is not a beginning. It is the end of her patience. Unknown to them, she has already been collecting evidence: conversations, confessions, financial corruption, and the quiet complicity of every family member who turned a blind eye. Armed with her knowledge of technology and a mask of obedience, she launches an anonymous online forum-a slow, deliberate unraveling of two dynasties hiding centuries of rot beneath velvet and lace. As secrets spill and empires fall, the woman they dismissed becomes the force they cannot trace or tame. Reputation is their currency, and she's burning it all to the ground. This is not a story of revenge. This is the story of a woman reclaiming her voice- And forcing the world to finally hear it.

"How dare you!!!" She screamed And... Slapped him hard across his face. But she had no clue who she was messing with or how easily he could destroy her. His lips curled into a dark smirk. Without a word, he fired his gun into the air and barked, "Start preparing for the goddamn wedding." Before she could even process what was happening, he hoisted her over his shoulder and stormed straight to the mandap set up for her cousin's wedding. Slamming her down, he hissed, "That slap just made you my wife." In one brutal motion, he filled her hairline with sindoor, sealing her fate in the most explosive way possible. Her life was no longer her own-𝘐𝘵 𝘞𝘢𝘴 𝘏𝘪𝘴. 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝟏𝟖+ | 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 | 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐫

What would you do if you found out your husband of eighteen years was having an affair? No, please. Don't answer now. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬. Eighteen years, not eighteen days. We have a history. A family. There's a long road between suspicion, footprints left in the sand, and the absolutely devastating truth that life as you know it has ended. I saw it all coming. Felt it in my bones. Late nights at work. Sleeping at the office. I felt the distance - how his eyes couldn't hold my stare anymore. Secretive texts late at night. Lipstick stains where they didn't belong. Unfamiliar scents on a man who should always smell like him and me. 𝘏𝘪𝘮 & 𝘮𝘦. But when a third person enters your marriage... There's nothing left anymore. My name is Cecily, and this is the story of how my life was 𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘥 - and how I survived 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦.

The fire crackled, sacred chants filling the air as two couples sat before the holy flames-bound not by love, but by fate's cruel twist. Siya's breath hitched as Aadhiran Varman applied sindoor to her forehead-her uncle by relation, now her husband by destiny. He didn't flinch, didn't hesitate. For him, duty came before everything. Across from them, Ira's fingers trembled in Rudran's grasp. Her best friend. Her younger cousin. Now her husband. But there was no playfulness in his eyes, only something dark and unreadable. The wrong vows. The wrong partners. And no way to undo what was done. Will love bloom in the ruins, or will the past consume them all? Mature scenes. So read on your own risk.
