As the chairman of the multi-billion-dollar Malhotra Group, he lives in a world of numbers, boardrooms, and luxury-far from love, feelings, or family warmth. A man of few words, and even fewer smiles. Dr. Ria Sharma, on the other hand, is Mumbai's rising neurosurgeon-brilliant, bold, and kind-hearted. Her world is filled with patients, night shifts, and chai breaks with her middle-class yet loving family. They meet for the first time through an arranged proposal-two strangers from different worlds, bound together by tradition. Marriage wasn't their dream. But understanding, companionship, and something deeper... slowly begins to bloom. A feel-good, slow-paced love story of two people who learn to trust, open up, and fall in love-after marriage. Because sometimes, strangers can become soulmates-if the heart is patient enough.

I loved her first. She married him anyway. Ten years later, she showed up at my door, broken, betrayed, begging for help to leave the husband who threw her away. She thinks I'm being kind. Helping an old friend. She doesn't know I've been waiting. She never knew how I loved her. Never knew I watched her wedding from the back of the church. Never knew she was the reason I buried my heart so deep even I forgot where. Now she's back. Vulnerable. Trusting. Asking the one man who never stopped wanting her to help her walk away from someone else. This time? I'm not letting her go.

~ABHIMAAN MALHOTRA ❤️ SAMANTHA SINGH~ "Tell me, wifey. You were so eager to marry me, huh? Do you have any extra needs that I can fulfill?" she fumed in anger upon hearing his disrespectful words. She raised her hands only to slap him and shut his mouth from saying more harsh words to her. "Don't you dare think that, Samantha," he said, holding her hands tightly. "Let me go, Abhimaan!" she shouted. "Then, why the fuck did you marry me? You are nothing more than a gold digger." Hearing that word broke her level of patience as she lifted her knee and hit him hard on his member. "You better not use that word again, Mr. Malhotra", he groaned in pain, moving away from her. Abhimaan Malhotra, CEO of Malhotra Group of Industries, is nothing but a definition of Greek God by looks and a walking centre of storm. His first love is his business, and the love that lasts has yet to enter his life. Samantha Singh, a girl who is working for not to live a better life but to save her father's last memory, his cafe, by paying off the huge amount of debt. When the crisis hits her hand and she is on the verge of losing everything, there are hard decisions that she has to make, and that involves marrying her father's best friend's son, Abhimaan. Getting into a loveless marriage was the least she would have wanted in her life, but that's what DESTINY means, right? "Divorce me and set yourself free." Abhimaan's cold voice echoed inside the room. "I can't divorce you, Mr. Malhotra," Samantha whispered, tears flowing down her cheeks. "Then accept that you are a gold digger." His voice broke her heart when she realised that she had already fallen for him. "Yes, Abhimaan, I'm a gold digger," she admitted with a barely audible voice, but enough for him to listen. What will happen if the walls start colliding and circumstances make them stand beside each other? WHO WILL DESIRE THE OTHER FIRST? Read "HIS UNWANTED DESIRE" to get all your answers. [Note: Weekly Updates]

She's a doctor who heals. He's a soldier who breaks boundaries and rules. Together, they learn that love is the bravest battle of all. When Dr. Anika Agnihotri volunteers at an army hospital, the last thing she expects is to fall for Major Vikrant Singh Rathore-a man carved from discipline, danger, and impossible loyalty. From stubborn arguments in the ER to stolen moments between long-distance postings, their love story is built on courage, sacrifice, and the promise to always come home. But the world doesn't make it easy. War zones, family fears, misunderstandings, and near-death missions threaten to tear them apart. And yet... love keeps finding its way back. A story of passion, distance, resilience, and the kind of love that survives uniforms, borders, and time.

They were strangers bound by an arranged marriage neither of them wanted. She, a quiet dreamer who had secretly loved him for years. He, a pragmatic man who saw marriage as an obligation, not an emotion. For two years, they lived as roommates - her world revolving around him, and his life quietly orbiting her without realizing it. Until one night, a phone call could have changed everything - if only he had picked up. That night changed her. The woman who once waited for love now wanted freedom. But by the time he finally saw what she meant to him... she was already gone. And some mistakes take years to heal - even if love never really leaves.
