It was a wedding, not a marriage. A simple business deal...
She married for money...
He had a wedding as a cover for his sordid affairs...
The contract was clear- no feelings, no emotional investment, no interfering in each other's lives. All the affairs they wanted as long as it was discreet. A wedding- not a marriage.
Will they keep to the contract? Or will the sacred union they entered in get the better of them? Most importantly, will their dark pasts and dangerous secrets eventually destroy the peaceful facade they have created?

Unexpectedly accepted-a tale of hatred and love
He never meant to love her. The cold-hearted CEO-ruthless in business, calculated in life-believed marriage was nothing more than a deal signed on paper. She was his lawfully wedded wife, yes... but never meant to touch the ice in his chest, never meant to matter. Until she did. Until the silence between them started to echo louder than any argument. Until the warmth in her eyes, despite the pain he gave her, began to haunt him. He had built empires, torn down rivals, and walked through life untouched... But love? Love crept in without permission-soft, steady, and devastating. And now he's drowning in guilt. Because somewhere between indifference and obsession, he realized his greatest mistake: He broke the very heart that was always meant to heal him. Read to know what actually happened
Marked by Sindoor....
I don't remember who I was. No name. No family. Only a scar... and eyes that flinch at every shadow. I was just a girl tied in the back of a car-until he saw me. Ranvijay Rathore, the billionaire everyone feared but no one really knew, married me to protect himself. Or maybe, just maybe... he saw something in me even I had forgotten. But I'm not who he thinks I am. I'm not his mistake. I'm not their victim. I'm something much more dangerous- A lost royal. A stolen heir. A queen who was never meant to survive. Now that I remember the truth... I'm coming for everything they took from me. Even if I have to burn every last one of them to the ground. _____________ She had no name, no past... and no one to call her own. Until he found her-tied, broken, and silenced in the dark corners of a roadside hotel. Business tycoon Ranvijay Rathore never believed in fate, until the woman he rescued became his only chance at survival. A rushed marriage, a fake identity, and a storm of enemies closing in from every side. She was supposed to be his shield... But she was so much more. Behind her silence was a secret. Behind her bruises-a bloodline royal enough to shake empires. And behind her soft eyes-a rage that could burn kingdoms to ash. When betrayal comes from blood and power plays turn deadly, one truth will remain: She wasn't just his wife... She was his saviour. And their enemies' worst nightmare.Complete
The Playboy CEO (SAMPLE)
(The full version of this book is available on Webnovel!) "Do you see this?" I held up a card between my fingers. Jason looked at the card, then back at me, confusion clear as day in his eyes. "What is this?" "A wild card, obviously," he shrugged, looking like he was about to tell me to get to the point. All in due time. "Obviously," my smile probably looked sarcastic, like I was making fun of him. Jason had no business being fussy with the position he was in. "Take a look at your surroundings, my love. The situation you find yourself in is less than ideal, and I'm the only one who can save you," I was done being the hurt one. The one who was always left behind. "Now tell me again. What is this?" "A wild card." "This is what I am to you right now," I put the card down on the table and slid it towards him. "And whether it wins or loses the game for you is your move." ~°~°~°~°~°~ An accidental marriage. A drunken mistake, or a premeditated plan for revenge?

Well, it's up to him to decide what he'll do with this new mess he's stuck in.Complete
