Arini Razia Khan was born in a place society pretends does not exist. Arhaan Dev Rathore was born into a world that decides which places should not exist. She is a lawyer fighting for the rights of women the country refuses to see. He is the Prime Minister's son, protecting the image of a country that refuses to change. She is called illegitimate because of where she was born. He is called legitimate because of whose name he carries. They meet in courtrooms, in conferences, in battles that start with law and end with ego. They are not supposed to like each other. They are not supposed to understand each other. And they are definitely not supposed to fall in love. Because some love stories are not written in poetry. Some are written in legal notices, political scandals, and whispered threats behind closed doors. And this is one of them.

He is the CM of the state while she is his Secretary. He does everything to keep his state on top while she does everything to keep the system right. He would do whatever it took to see his state rise to unparalleled heights, even if it meant making deals with the devil himself. Her loyalty to the state was unwavering, but her commitment was rooted in a deep-seated belief that right should always triumph over might. As these two influential figures found themselves under the same roof, their conflicting ideologies sparked a storm within the State Capital. Ajay, fueled by his burning desire to lead Veridian to greatness, did not hesitate to tread on the thin line between right and wrong. SHE, on the other hand, was a guardian of virtue, ready to defend the state's honour at any cost. Follow the story of the Chief Minister of the state and his Secretary to see where this relationship of politics in the state and house goes. Unleash the secrets of HER along with Ajay who bore the injustice yet stayed silent. THE C.M'S SECRETARY

NEHA NANDA x VARDAAN RATHORE "I hate you already, Mr Rathore. Don't make me hate you more. I will forget everything you've done to betray me if you let me and my father go." His head tilts in that dangerous, deranged way. "Escape me, wife? That desperate to leave your husband. Not possible in this lifetime." I retrieve my pistol and point it at him, towards his chest and he still dares to walk towards me, "I told you, I will kill you if I see you again." "You want to kill all of me? By all means. Whatever my pretty wife wants." He smiles. While my blood is boiling, he fucking smiles. "Don't get on my nerves, Mr Rathore. I won't hesitate to give you the same pain you gave me." "It would be worth the pain if you do it." Threatening is of no use for him. He'll always have a upper hand. So I act to beg. A sob escapes through my mouth, "Please let my father go. Please, I beg you." "You are going back home with me after that." Not in this lifetime Vardaan Rathore. "You betrayed me." I say instead, "And I want to kill you so bad right now. If I go with you, I'll end up hurting you more." "I told you, you can stab me to death and I still won't let you go." *** She was forced to marry a decade old politician. He willingly married the woman, who was predestined to be his wife. Their union was inevitable. Her motive was clear, Revenge. For all the misconceptions that destroyed her family seven years ago. And for all the misconceptions that might lead to her destruction as well. ◇◇◇ (Access early chapters on stck: author_july04) DIVINE SERIES BOOK ONE INTERCONNECTED STANDALONES
