From the very beginning, their union lacked the warmth of love, existing solely to fulfill Adhvik's parents' yearning for grandchildren. Reluctantly, they went through the motions, consummating their marriage and bringing their son Vihan into the world. Adhvik, driven by an irresistible physical desire, found himself drawn to Adhya. In those moments of intimacy, Adhya, fueled by her deep affection for Adhvik, willingly surrendered herself to him, hoping to awaken a love that lay dormant within him and the second time Adhya gave birth to a beautiful daughter, Vrihanika. Unfortunately, Adhvik only saw her through the lens of lust, unable to comprehend the depths of her love. While Adhvik proved to be a doting father to their children, his relationship with Adhya remained superficial, merely a façade. However, unbeknownst to him, a profound transformation was taking place within his heart. Slowly but surely, he began to realize that his need for Adhya went beyond physical desire; it was a yearning born out of genuine love. Now, the burning question remains: Will Adhvik summon the courage to confess his newfound emotions to Adhya? As their love story continues to unfold, we eagerly

Their marriage was built on family ties, not love or at least, that's what he believed. To him, it was a responsibility. To her, it was everything. She entered the marriage with a heart full of hope, believing that one day, he might return her love. But Zayan Malik had long buried his ability to feel, to connect especially with someone who looked at him with such quiet devotion. Seeing that hope in her eyes, he pulled away not out of cruelty, but to protect her from the hollowness inside him. What he didn't realize was that his silence, his absence, his indifference... would shatter her heart more deeply than any harsh word ever could. And when he left without a goodbye, she thought the pain had reached its peak. Until she discovered she was carrying his child.

When an unexpected twist of fate, places her in the hands of a powerful and ruthless man, where escape is no longer an option. He is feared, untouchable, and dangerously in control of everything, including her. She fights. He watches. She runs. He follows. But in a world where power is everything, resistance comes with a price. And when he marks something as his, he never lets it slip away! © quill_empress

Everything I went through was worth it. "Don't worry, mommy's coming," I said in a baby voice hoping to comfort him even though he wasn't crying. My heart dropped in my chest when I saw it was empty. No baby in sight. "Gray!," I screamed loudly like I was getting stabbed over and over again. He ran into the nursery, scanning the area for any danger. "He's gone! Our baby's gone!" His eyebrows furrowed as his eyes softened realising what happened. Just as quick as it came, it vanished and he was back with the icy look in his eye. The one he had when we first met.
