And she'd watch it burn, wrapped in his arms. Aarohi Singhania was born into a world of politics and power, under a rare-astrological night, but she never asked for the danger that came with it. Veer Raichand is a storm wrapped in muscles and flesh - dangerous, ruthless and entirely hers, but threat and betrayal lurk around them. The last time they both saw each other was ten years ago. Veer swore he would never confess his feelings to his enemy, come what may. The hate façade which he carried around him, lies beneath a devoted façade for only her. But Veer's heart is stubborn and his heart never learned the art of letting go. His obsession grew even more. Their arranged marriage should be a formality, but Veer doesn't do formalities. Especially not with her. He wants everything: her fears, her scars and most importantly... her heart. Aarohi is the pawn in this deadly game, but Veer sees her as the diamond he had vowed to protect, even if it kills him. His queen, he has promised to bring the world to its knees in front of her. In a political and underground world where betrayal is currency and love is a weapon, Veer will bend the world, burn empires, and cross every line to keep her safe and to keep her his. And Aarohi? She must decide whether to fight, surrender, or burn alongside the man who makes her heart and her world explode.

STANDALONE

At eighteen, she was betrayed by the very people who should have protected her sold into a house where women are stripped of their will and forced to serve under the cruel mask of survival. What followed was years of torment, beatings, humiliation, and the slow erasure of her voice. She did not live; she endured. But endurance can only last so long. Behind every forced smile, every silenced scream, she nurtures a single truth: she will not die within those walls. Her escape is not a dream it is a promise she makes to herself every night. Yet freedom is never simple. When her path collides with a man whose past is as fractured as her own, a new struggle begins. He is pulled toward her shadow without understanding why, but she scarred by betrayal and bound by fear cannot bring herself to believe in the tenderness she has longed for all her life. Caught between her past that still claws at her, a present that cages her, and an uncertain future that tempts her. She faces questions that cut deeper than chains: Will she find a way to break free? Will she allow herself to trust what her heart has always craved? Or will the house of shadows tighten its grip, binding her forever? Some stories aren't about survival alone. They're about what a soul dares to dream, even in the darkest prison. This is my first story. I request every reader to just spend their little time to open my book and read Please support me guys.........
