Sana Arora has spent her whole life surviving in silence. Working the front desk of a five-star hotel is supposed to be simple- smile politely, do her job, and keep her head down. She's built her life on staying unnoticed, staying careful, and never depending on anyone. Until one wrong night changes everything. One open door. One glance she can't take back. One man she was never meant to see. Rivaan Rawat doesn't tolerate loose ends. Cold, controlled, and dangerously patient, he rules his world from the shadows- and when Sana accidentally witnesses something she shouldn't, he makes a decision that is as ruthless as it is calculated. He takes her. But Sana isn't what he expected. She doesn't beg. She doesn't break. And she definitely doesn't surrender quietly to the cage he has built around her. What begins as a move to eliminate a risk quickly spirals into something far more dangerous, a battle of wills neither of them is prepared to lose. Because in Rivaan's world, once you are his... Walking away isn't an option. ══════⊹⊱❖⊰⊹══════ Warning 🔞 Please read the trigger warnings before you start. This book is intended for readers above the age of 18

One of Asia's youngest and most ruthless businessmen-a Mafia King whose name alone strikes terror. Arrogant, fierce, and dangerously unpredictable, he is a storm that never bends. Women crave him, power surrounds him, but love? Love is a weakness he buried long ago. Betrayal taught him that. Yet, beneath the ice and steel, there is one truth only a few will ever know-a heart that still beats, but only for one.

She was never loved. Not by the world. Not even by her own father the man who tried to sell her when she was only seven. Growing up unwanted, she stopped asking for fairy tales. She stopped believing in miracles. All she ever wanted was simple to be chosen. To be kept. To be loved just once in her life. So when marriage came, she thought maybe this was it. Maybe this was her escape from a childhood filled with betrayal. Maybe her husband would finally see her worth. But she didn't know the truth. The man she married wasn't looking for love. He was looking for revenge. Haunted by the death of his parents, he vowed to destroy the man responsible. And when fate placed the daughter of his enemy in his hands, he made a promise she would suffer for her father's sins. To her, he was hope. To him, she was punishment. In a marriage built on revenge and innocence, can love survive? Or will hatred burn everything before it even begins?
