"You walked into my life like a sin...and now you expect me to act innocent?"
"You are blushing because of me, Sugar... or because you want me to notice?"
An arranged marriage was never supposed to feel like a quiet surrender.
Aaradhya Sharma has spent most of her life being overlooked, unheard, and carefully adjusting to a world where her silence was more convenient than her voice. So when her marriage is decided for her, she does what she has always done - accepts without protest.
Rudraksh Singh Rathore is a man of control, discipline, and emotional distance. Marriage, to him, is nothing more than an obligation fulfilled for the sake of family.
He offers her respect.
A name.
A place in his house.
But never closeness.
In a home where everyone treats her with warmth except the man she now calls her husband, Aaradhya finds herself trapped in a strange contradiction - a safe house, yet a distant marriage.
He does not question her silence.
She does not question his indifference.
And somewhere between unspoken rules, quiet observations, and restrained boundaries, a marriage built on arrangement begins to change in ways neither of them intended.
Because sometimes, the most dangerous emotions are not the loud ones -
but the ones that grow quietly behind silence.
