His Solace by NandiniKrishnaa

Arjun×Nandini Two gentle hearts One is yours and another one is also yours Yes! I have given you mine For this reason, sometimes I may seem heartless ✧♡｡⁠♡｡♡⁠｡♡✧♡｡♡｡♡｡♡✧ Nandini Sharma is an aspiring singer who hides her painful past behind a bright smile. To the world, she is warm, cheerful, and full of life-but beneath the surface, she carries scars no one sees.

When her father arranges her marriage to Arjun Singh Khurana, she believes she's marrying a businessman. She doesn't know that Arjun is a ruthless mafia boss-or that their marriage is nothing more than a contract. Forced into a life she never chose, Nandini soon realizes that beneath Arjun's cold exterior, he, too, carries wounds hidden from the world. But just as she begins to understand him, the past she tried so hard to forget starts resurfacing. And when the cracks in her carefully built walls begin to show, Arjun realizes that something much darker is haunting her-something far bigger than he ever expected. As secrets unravel and truths come to light, will they find solace in each other, or will the past destroy them both?
