But from the very first night, Rudraksh makes one thing clear - she will get his name, his protection, and his wealth... but never his love.

while she kept loving him with all the broken pieces."
But how long can a man hide love that deep?
And what happens when Shivika finally discovers the truth behind his hatred?
A story filled with silent love, heartbreak, emotional pain, family warmth, hidden truths, jealousy, obsession, healing, and a cold mafia king who slowly falls harder for the girl he tried so desperately to stay away from.
