"You can trust me, it will be dealt with," he said with that practiced smile of his that hid all his thoughts.
Though I already knew, while my mind kept screaming inside that I was gambling with everything, and my heart ached, yet I mustered the brightest smile I could and replied sincerely, "I trust you with my entirety. Who else can I trust if not you?"
********
He was a man known for many things. He was intelligent, smart, handsome, rich, powerful, talented, charismatic, charming, famous, celebrity, et cetera, et cetera.
He was a lawyer, that everybody recognised, everyone looked up to, everyone admired.
But not everyone knew about his other side where he was broken, cold, calculative, secretive, dangerous, imposing, manipulative and a great actor. He was a fire that could freeze his opponent with one look. He was the ice that burnt her with his every smile.
Little did she know that he had a history that was more complicated than the cases he handled. And what was to become of her when she learns about his betrayal?
With the ghosts of the past coming back to haunt him, and the one presence he wasn't even anticipating to be involved in his new case, who will Neel Raivardhan choose? Will he give into his demons and chase after the lost or will he cherish what he had and give himself another chance?

Empire of Fire: A Dark Dance of Power and Love
Anaya Sharma knows all about the struggles of life. Growing up middle-class, she's learned to find joy in simplicity, beauty in kindness, and strength in quiet resilience. Her heart is as soft as the silk of her mother's favorite saree, and her dreams are as gentle as the monsoon rain. But when a family crisis threatens to shatter everything she holds dear, Anaya finds herself in a gilded cage, staring into the steel-cold eyes of the man who holds her family's fate in his ruthless hands. Advay Rathore is a force of nature. Self-made, insanely rich, and a lawyer whose reputation precedes him like a predator's shadow, he doesn't just win cases-he annihilates opponents. Witty, savage, and arrogantly certain of his own infallible judgment, Advay sees the world in stark black and white: his way is the only way, and whatever he does, by sheer force of will and intellect, becomes the right thing. He wants a wife. A beautiful, compliant trophy to adorn his arm at galas, to keep his bed warm, and, most importantly, to never, ever question his absolute authority. Anaya, with her innocent eyes and quiet charm, fits the bill perfectly. Their arranged marriage is a contract: he saves her family, she becomes his possession. Advay treats her not just as a wife, but as a carefully selected asset, often demeaning her with his dismissive words and alpha-male dominance. He expects obedience, not love. He wants a body, not a soulmate.Complete

That something should be worth. ☆☆☆ He was standing infront of me all the time, when I had my eyes closed. I turned my back to him so that I could confess without any interruption. Also closed my eyes to avoid my nerves that could have held me back. But the bastard took the opportunity to witness all my misery. And when I finished I was too anxious to notice him there. I even thought it better that he left after. That he didn't hear any of those stupid things that I spew out of my mouth. Now that he heard everything. I felt a little shy, embarrassed and probably more shy. With him this close, touching me, whispering things. How am I still alive?! "Huh?!" I replied, making myself an idiot, again, infront of my, uh___ crush?! Yeah, I was tired of calling him my ex secret husband. He smirked as his eyes twinkled, amused. That brought me back as I blink a few times. Stupid, that I was. "When?! Why would I ignore you?!" I denied. Gashmir did not stop his torture. His hand went to my neck as he soothed my skin. ☆☆☆ To my Indian and non Indiana readers both. Don't think much just give it a shot.Complete
