She was just a fangirl... admiring him from a distance, like millions of others. He was a cricketer... loved by the world, chased by the media, living a life she only saw on screens. But one decision by their families changes everything. Suddenly- She's his wife. On paper. In name. In a bond she never truly understood. An IAS officer with her own dreams. A cricketer with a life full of chaos. Two completely different worlds... tied together in silence. A marriage that's real- but a relationship that isn't. Secrets. Late-night conversations. Unspoken feelings. And a truth that could change everything. Is this just a compromise... ya phir kismat ka likha hua ek unexpected twist? Will it turn into love... or remain a rishta that was never meant to be? And when the world finds out- Will it become a headline... or a love story? Because sometimes... pyaar plan nahi hota. Bas ho jaata hai. ✨ Title Credits to @_ingeniouswriter97_ Also do check out @_ingeniouswriter97_'s Rishabh Pant fanfic Hearts and Boundaries...
