Prologue
Omkara Singh Oberoi never believed in love. Not the kind that lasted, anyway. His marriage to Gauri Kumari Ssarma was built on duty and convenience, not affection. She was always there-steady, reliable, loving him in ways he could never return. Gauri had accepted her place in his life, knowing that his heart belonged to someone else, or perhaps to no one at all.
Yet, their lives intertwined in unexpected ways. The night Omkara showed up at Gauri's door, drenched in rain, carrying a small child in his arms, everything changed. He didn't explain much, only that he needed her help. Gauri, without hesitation, welcomed both him and the child, Anaya, into her life. From that moment, Gauri became more than just Omkara's wife-she became Anaya's mother.
Years passed, and though Omkara cared for Gauri, he kept his emotions guarded. Anaya brought them closer, but there was always something holding him back, a barrier between him and the love Gauri longed for. Omkara's past still haunted him, a shadow that Gauri couldn't quite see, but she felt its weight.
As the family's fragile peace is threatened by secrets and unresolved ties from Omkara's past, Gauri can't help but wonder: will Omkara ever truly love her? Or will she always be the woman who gave everything but received only part of him in return?
The question lingers, unanswered, as they face the battles ahead. For Gauri, the mystery isn't just about the past. It's about whether Omkara's heart will ever belong to her, or if it's a love she'll never fully have.
