When 18-year-old Aanya, a bright and spirited college student, is forced into an arranged marriage with her 30-year-old professor, Veer Malhotra, she finds herself trapped in a world of duty and control. Veer, a man of discipline and intellect, sees their marriage as an obligation rather than a union of love. As they navigate their unexpected relationship, misunderstandings and emotions collide, culminating in a heartbreaking moment where Veer's anger leads to an unforgivable mistake-he slaps Aanya. Broken and humiliated, she walks away, determined to reclaim her self-respect and independence. But love has its own way of binding souls. Veer is tormented by regret, desperate to earn her forgiveness. As Aanya gives him a hard time, making him fight for her love, their story takes a passionate turn-filled with emotional breakdowns, heartfelt confessions, seductive encounters, and intense lovemaking. Through heartbreak and healing, pain and passion, their love story unfolds, leading to a life of warmth, togetherness, and a little miracle-completing their journey in a way neither of them expected.

At 21, Ananya is full of dreams, innocence, and mischief-her world bright with possibilities. At 32, Aarav Malhotra is the epitome of control: a strict, no-nonsense businessman who's seen too much of the world to believe in fairytales. They couldn't be more different. Or more perfect for each other. Forced into an arranged marriage with her brother's best friend, Ananya is determined to hate the man who seems so cold and unyielding. But Aarav sees what no one else does-her vibrant energy, her endearing clumsiness, and the way she makes his heart race in ways he can't control. "You don't have to like me, Ananya," he says, his voice low and possessive, "but you'll learn to love me. Because I won't let you go. Ever." An age-gap, brothers-best-friend romance filled with sizzling chemistry, heartfelt moments, and a love so fierce it burns through every barrier.

Prashant Pandey is everything the world admires. Confident, charming, and impossible to ignore. But the version he gives them isn't real. Not like the one he shows me. With me, he's chaos wrapped in silence. With me, he's the broken parts he hides. And I hate him for what he's done. I hate that I still want him. His touch. His pain. His truth. Him. Ira Solanki used to be the girl I would've burned the world for. But that girl is gone. And the woman who took her place? I can't love her without destroying her. I'm colder now. Harsher. I don't let her in, not like before. I hurt her because it's easier than holding her. Because it's the only way I know how to let her go. We don't fit. We break. Over and over again. But no matter how far we fall, we keep reaching for each other through every fight, every scar, every memory that won't let go. This isn't a love story. It's a war. And somehow, we're both losing.
