ABHIMANYU × AMRITA THE VIPER × THE ANGEL OF DEATH Amrita Valekar is fierce, fearless, and razor-sharp. A CBI officer known as the Angel of Death, she has one mission-to bring down Russian mafia kingpin Damin Soklov and expose the dangerous network operating behind him. But Damin isn't her only target. Someone else keeps appearing in her way. A man wearing a grey skeletal mask. Silent. Calculating. Unpredictable. The Viper. Every time Amrita gets close to catching him, he disappears. Worse- he keeps saving her. Why would a man she's determined to capture repeatedly protect her? That's the secret Amrita doesn't know. Behind the grey skeletal mask is Major Abhimanyu Nandan-a man far more deeply involved in the shadows than she could ever imagine. And Damin Soklov? He isn't simply Abhimanyu's associate. He's his informant, feeding him intelligence about illegal and terrorist activities planned in India so that the military can intervene before disaster strikes. Amrita believes she's hunting criminals. She doesn't realize that the man she has been chasing is sometimes the very reason she survives. Then fate places them in an alliance neither of them expected. Marriage. Amrita enters the marriage completely oblivious to the truth. She doesn't know the man beside her is the masked figure she has spent months trying to catch. She doesn't know that Abhimanyu already knows who she is. He knows her investigation. He knows her mission. He knows exactly how close she's getting to the truth. And most dangerously- he knows everything about her. She is hunting the Viper. The Viper is protecting her. And now... she has married him. She thinks she's investigating a mystery. He knows she's already living inside it. ABHIMANYU × AMRITA One marriage. Two secrets. A dangerous game of truth and deception.

EK HASEENA THI Duet 1 Her story. Her perspective. Her truth. She was a prosecutor. He was the villain. Araadhna Nandan had always believed in one thing- Justice. As a prosecutor, she knows how to read evidence, tear apart lies, and put criminals behind bars. What she doesn't know is that sometimes... the truth isn't written in the evidence. And then there is Ayaan Mallik. Her brother's best friend. A Para SF officer. A man with a cold stare, an unreadable face, and a reputation that makes people think twice before crossing his path. He is arrogant. Eccentric. Rebellious. And undeniably bad. Araadhna, however, has a terrible habit of teasing him. She doesn't know why irritating Ayaan is so entertaining. He doesn't know why her presence is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. But this isn't a simple story of a girl falling for a man. Because Ayaan Mallik isn't the hero of this story. He is the villain. And eventually, Araadhna will find herself standing on the opposite side of the courtroom from him. While Garv Mukheja, a CBI officer who loves Araadhna, begins following a trail of questions that refuses to stay buried. Three people. Three different truths. One case. And secrets that were never meant to surface. DUET ONE Narrated by Araadhna Nandan. You will see Ayaan through her eyes. You will judge him through her understanding. You will discover the truth only as she does. But remember- Araadhna is the narrator. She isn't the keeper of every secret. So don't trust every smile. Don't believe every explanation. And don't assume you've figured out the villain just because you've found his name. Because sometimes... the most dangerous thing in a courtroom isn't the person standing accused. It's the truth nobody knows yet. 🖤 AYAAN MALLIK × ARAADHNA NANDAN ⚔️ GARV MUKHEJA × NAYAAB WAZIR Welcome to the beginning of the madness. - Ravenscript_noir

Some people are meant to remain strangers. Some lives are meant to pass each other without ever crossing.

Not by chance. Not by accident. But by choice. Fate does not always bring people together to give them something. Sometimes, it brings them together to take everything away. And when their worlds collide, it will not be a gentle crossing of paths. It will be the beginning of something neither of them was supposed to face. One life will step into the other's world. One existence will disturb the order of another. And a meeting that should have never happened will become the first crack in everything they once knew. They were never meant to meet...

Yet fate brought them together anyway. Why? Because perhaps some meetings are not written to create something beautiful. Perhaps some encounters exist for one purpose alone... to destroy. And when fate decides that two strangers must cross paths, who are they to stop it? After all, the cruelest games are the ones destiny begins long before its victims realize they are already playing.
