" I don't believe in marriage."
Adhrit Singh said it flatly, his eyes cold, emotionless.
Ishani Rai tilted her head, a faint smirk hiding behind her calm eyes.
"It's okay... I'll make you believe I'm exactly that," she said, playful and daring, her voice soft but full of hidden fire.
An arranged marriage ties a cold-hearted police officer-shaped by duty, loss, and a fear of love-to a kindergarten teacher who hides a mischievous, imaginative soul beneath her calm exterior.
He keeps his distance, believing love only leads to heartbreak.
She stays, secretly dreaming, scheming, and playing little scenarios in her mind of a husband who is nothing short of divine.
No promises.
No expectations.
Just two strangers learning how to exist under the same roof...
where silence can hide laughter, and longing wears a mischievous smile.
This is a slow-burn dark romance where hearts open quietly, fantasies collide with reality, and love comes on its own terms.
