"Shae - Like the butter?", he was cocky beyond belief.
"S H E A is the butter. It's Shae.", I enunciated sternly as I simply chose to ignore this unwitting stranger.
23-year-old Shae paved her way through tragic family circumstances and now that everything seemed settled for once in her life, she was turning to a new chapter. A "well planned" beginning of live-in with her college sweetheart, Daksh. With a new job, not so new city and a childhood home filled with happy yet heartbreaking memories, she was ready to embark upon with hopes of a perfectly timed wedding - until another life turning event changed it all.
Scattered to pieces, this new life she always dreamed of takes a whole different turn when Ved, a family friend from the life she had previously left behind as a teenager on a bittersweet farewell comes to light with unwarranted feelings along with some hidden truths.
When personal life has taken a life of it own, Shae now looks forward to find inspiration at her new job but little does she know how a stranger is about to air wounds of her family's past just when she finds herself caught in an inescapable situation with her new boss Ronit, where it's all unfathomably connected.
Starting over has never been so melodramatic yet sensational.

Anya:His Eternal Devotion | 18+
Book-1 in the obsession series I told her not to wake me. I told her again and again, but she never learns. Every time she opens her mouth, every time she looks at him, something inside me burns. And tonight, I'm done warning.I press the knife against her chest and whisper, "I told you not to wake me... now see, what you did with yourself." Her eyes widen, tears mixing with sweat as the blade cuts deeper. She tries to grab my wrist, but I push harder, feeling the resistance fade under my hand. The sound of her gasp hits my ears, trembling, desperate-but all I feel is calm. Strange, but true. The deeper the knife goes, the quieter my thoughts become.He's mine. Not just his smile. Not just his body. Him-every breath, every heartbeat, every thought. Mine. And I don't share what's mine.She screams. The noise shakes through the room, sharp, irritating. "Ananya... you're doing wron-" Before she can finish, I push the blade all the way through her chest. The words die on her lips, replaced by silence."I don't like raised voices," I mutter, watching the light fade from her eyes. My voice sounds strange, lower than usual, almost satisfied. She falls back-limp, lifeless-eyes still open, like she's still trying to question me.The blood spreads across the floor, slow and uneven, and I kneel there, staring at it. This... this is peace. This is what quiet feels like. No begging. No pleading. Just me. And soon, him. No one can keep him like I can.I wipe the blade clean on her dress, stand up, and breathe deeply. The air smells sharp, metallic, real. My heart's steady again. The trembling's gone. Finally, again...only mine. She is not just a CEO but a devil who kills someone if they try to come in between them.When he will get to know her real, will his love break her darkness... or will his warmth be enough to meet her the real herself?
