Rooh Mehra has always lived her life by the rules - the obedient daughter of a middle-class, orthodox family. Sweet, naïve, yet quietly fierce, she believes love and marriage should be built on trust. But destiny has other plans. When her innocence is trapped in a scandal on the eve of Neel Rathore's wedding - a man she barely knows, yet shares distant blood with - her world shatters. Overnight, she's thrust into the role of his wife, not out of love, but out of compulsion. Neel, the cold and arrogant heir to a powerful business empire, never wanted this marriage. His heart belonged elsewhere, his life mapped out. To him, Rooh is nothing but a mistake... a reminder of betrayal he can't forgive. But how long can obedience silence her voice? How long before pride turns into passion, and strangers chained by fate discover a desire neither of them can deny? ✨ A tale of forced marriage, betrayal, family honor, and the slow burn of love that sparks in the ashes of hatred.
