    "She came from the future. He was born to protect a kingdom drowning in secrets." When twenty-one-year-old Siyanshi's life takes an unexpected turn, she finds herself ripped away from the modern world and thrown into the heart of seventeenth-century Rajputana-a land of bloodstained honour, royal conspiracies, and dangerous kings. Lost in a time that does not belong to her, Siyanshi becomes trapped inside the grand walls of a kingdom preparing for war. But survival becomes impossible when she crosses paths with Veeransh -the feared Rajput prince known for his cold heart, ruthless decisions, and unwavering loyalty to the Ivory Throne. To him, she is a mystery. A girl with strange words, unfamiliar customs, and secrets she refuses to explain. To her, he is danger wrapped in silk and steel. As political betrayals begin to unfold within the palace, Siyanshi discovers that her arrival in the past was never an accident. Someone knows who she is. Someone has been waiting for her. And the deeper she falls into the kingdom's deadly secrets, the harder it becomes to ignore the forbidden feelings growing between her and the prince who was never meant to love her. But history demands sacrifice. And in a kingdom built on loyalty and bloodshed, love may become the greatest betrayal of all.

    🌪️😩✨ She was never meant to return, never meant to cross paths with them again- yet fate pulled her back, only to bind her to a man who already belonged to someone else. He had walked through life untouched by the thought of marriage, untethered, unbothered- yet here he stood, promising a lifetime to a stranger he had never truly known. They were never meant to meet. Two worlds apart, too different to ever collide- and yet, destiny had other plans. Cruel, unyielding plans that wove their lives together in the most unforgiving way. 🌪️😩✨

    "𝒕𝒖𝒋𝒉𝒆 𝒚𝒂𝒂𝒅 𝒌𝒂𝒓 𝒍𝒊𝒚𝒂 𝒉𝒂𝒊 𝑨𝒂𝒚𝒂𝒕 𝒌𝒊 𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒉" "YOU CANNOT KNEEL BEFORE ANYONE, YASHWANT SINGH RAWAT!" Mayukta Singh Rawat's voice echoed through the hall, sharp enough to cut through the stunned silence that had settled over the crowd. Her furious gaze was fixed on the man before her. Yashwant. The prince remained on one knee, utterly unmoved by his grandmother's outburst. Not once did he turn his head toward her. His eyes never left the woman standing in front of him. The entire gathering stared in disbelief. A king was never meant to kneel before anyone.Yet here he was,on his knees,for her. "Bataiye, Noor..." His voice was calm, unwavering, carrying only sincerity. "Kya aap humse shaadi karengi? Kya humein yeh mauka dengi ki hum aapke ardhang ban sakein?" A collective gasp rippled through the room. Noor Tripathi stood frozen, her fingers clutching the fabric of her lehenga so tightly that her knuckles had turned pale. Her heartbeat thundered in her ears as she looked at the prince kneeling before her. "Yashwant, yeh kaisi pagalpan ki baatein kar rahe hain aap?" one of his relatives exclaimed in shock. "she is a commoner,you can not marry her ." But Yashwant didn't spare them a single glance. The world around him ceased to exist.There was only Noor,slowly, he extended his hand toward her "Noor..." His voice softened. "Sirf tab, jab aapki marzi ho. Agar aap mana karna chahein... toh bina kisi jhijhak ke kar sakti hain. Main aapke faisle ki izzat karunga." Noor swallowed hard, hearing him when almost instinctively, her eyes searched for her father. He stood a few steps away, watching silently.For a brief moment, father and daughter looked at each other. Then, with the faintest smile, he gave her a gentle nod.Tears threatened to gather in Noor's eyes. She looked back at Yashwant, whose hand still waited patiently for hers,Her lips parted,Barely above a whisper,
