Love is not always gentle-it can be cruel, consuming, and relentless. When fate binds two souls in an unholy vow, the line between worship and possession fades. And in the end, devotion is either a blessing or a curse.

Because even in the darkest times, honour can bloom into love and love into freedom. ⚠️ This story contains mature and explicit content. Read at your own risk (18+). --- Set in 1960s Bengal, Gunjan Saha, a 17-year-old girl whose eyes still hold the innocence of monsoon skies, yet whose heart knows only fear and silence. After her mother's death, she endures her stepmother's cruelty, dreaming only of kindness, freedom, and being seen as someone worthy of love. Riddhiman Roy Chowdhury, the 29-year-old son of the village sarpanch, returns from London as a gold-medalist barrister determined to reform his village. But destiny has another plan... one that ties his fate to a fragile, innocent girl. One night, Gunjan runs barefoot through the lanes, escaping the men her stepmother sold her to, and destiny leads her to him... the man who would rewrite her story. When whispers taint her name for taking refuge in his house, Riddhiman does the unthinkable... he marries her. Before the same eyes that condemned her, he takes her hand and gives her honour. Bound first by duty, their marriage slowly becomes a sanctuary of trust, hope, and forbidden desire. As Gunjan learns to smile again, Riddhiman fights the one battle he never expected... the battle of his own heart. A man of reason and law. A girl of innocence and faith. Bound not by romance, but by righteousness and something far more fragile... unspoken love. But what happens when duty starts to feel like desire? Will he ever see her as more than a responsibility? And will she find the freedom she's been longing for... in the heart of the man who became her protector?

"Aditya, I-" "Yes or No." His voice cut through the air, sharp and commanding. Shivalika didn't say anything. She knew if she replied with only Yes or No then it will bring up more Misunderstandings. But Her silence was enough for him. "The lies, the betrayal... You really thought I wouldn't find out?" Her eyes drifted to the papers in his hand-papers that would change everything. Her face paled. She had never imagined the truth would come out like this. "D-DNA report..." Her voice trembled. Her family was now frozen in shock. The betrayal was too much. His heart, once shattered, He had trusted her, believed her- But she had betrayed him. Not once, but twice. After all these years, she had hidden the truth about his daughter. "You hid it from me." His voice was thick "For eight years." His words were harsh. "I have a 7 year-old daughter, and I never knew she existed. I thought my child was dead! And you... you didn't think I had the right to know?" His voice broke into a whisper, one laced with pain. "I should've known. I shouldn't have trusted you after what you did to me eight years ago." Disgust curling his lips. For the first time, Shivalika saw hatred for her in his eyes, and it pierced her soul. But she knew she deserved it- every bit of his hate. She had broken him all over again. "You're a lawyer, right? You fight for human rights, but You took away my rights as a father." "Ms. Chauhan...You will regret hiding this from me. You've seen my love,and now... now you will see my Hate." "I didn't hate you when you left me. But today, today you've given me a reason to." His face twisted in a storm of fury, betrayal. "I'll make your life a living hell. This was all because of our family rivalry right? Now, I'll show You what a Real Rivalry looks like." Each word filled with venom, rage, and the promise of Vengeance. The man who had once been the hero of someone's story had now become the villain of his own. His Love turned into Vengeance.

So, this is the third book of the Blooming Love series. If you haven't read Lotus: Her Blooming Love and Sunflower: His Blooming Love, you can totally check them out first. But honestly-it's your choice. You can read them all together, or jump right in here. Either way, welcome back to this messy, imperfect, and beautiful journey. This series is about you too-the character who's learning to see how beautiful you are, even with all your flaws. Because every scar, every insecurity, every "not enough"... is still part of your blooming story. So let's begin, shall we?

Lotus: Her Blooming Love "Love isn't about claiming, it's about surrender. And healing begins where true love waits silently. Gauri Vishwakarma was born with fire in her aim and devotion in her heart. A joyful, talkative girl whose world revolved around archery, friendships, and the whispered prayers she shared with her eternal companion-Shri Krishna. She thought she understood love. At least, that's what her possessive boyfriend made her believe. But everything begins to change the moment she steps into Jamshedpur, chasing her dreams at the Tata Archery Academy. When her brother's best friend, Shiv Verma, a quiet, dark-skinned coach with eyes full of unspoken emotions, walks back into her life-everything that once seemed sure starts to unravel. What Gauri doesn't know is that Shiv has loved her since they were teenagers-since the first time he saw her lighting a diya in the Radha Krishna temple, talking to Kanha like He was really listening. She never noticed. But he never forgot. Now, fate brings them under the same roof, in the same training ground, with her heart confused and his love silent. Will her broken beliefs about love shatter under pressure, or bloom into something pure? Will she see the difference between control and care? And will Kanha guide her to a love that heals? A tender, slow-burn desi love story that celebrates faith, healing, and the kind of love that waits. Forever.
