She married him to punish him.
He married her to protect something deeper.
Love was never part of the bargain... until it was.
Rayyan Malik lives by order.
A doctor by education, a COO by profession and a quiet rule-breaker when the rules lose their meaning.
He arrives at his cousin's wedding only to become the groom himself.
A sudden substitution.
A marriage born out of necessity, not desire. But he agrees without protest. He has his reasons and maybe... one of them is love.
Firdaus Faruqui walks with grace through a world thats never truly seen her.
An artist. A professor.
A daughter burdened with debts not measured in money. She was supposed to marry a man she barely knew-
until she twisted fate and chose HIM instead because she thinks she knows what he's done? Who he's betrayed?
And she'll make sure he remembers.
What begins as quiet rebellion soon becomes something neither of them expected.
In a world ruled by power, authenticity is the only weapon worth holding but sometimes ...
Reverence is born where revenge was planted.
Firdaus × Rayyan ❤️🔥
