When the monster falls for the chaos, the city will burn.
Eden thrives in the shadows of Los Demonios, a city steeped in vice and danger. He's a creature of beautiful contradictions: a bastard son of a ruthless crime boss, an artist of precise, theatrical violence, and a man whose greatest escape comes from the sweet, euphoric rush of Candy Krush. Beneath his flawless, model-like facade, Eden is a storm of unhinged desires, reveling in sex and brutality, where the thrill of the chase, the raw release of pain, and the consuming burn of pleasure intertwine. He's often crude, sometimes crass, and always dangerous.
But when he encounters the son of a rival Mafia family, the lines blur between predator and prey. This rival heir sees through Eden's carefully constructed masks, drawn to the beautiful chaos within. As their worlds collide, a dangerous obsession ignites, pulling them into a dance of power, forbidden desire, and secrets that could shatter both their empires. In a city built on blood and lies, how long can two monsters crave each other before they both get burned?
Two rival sons. One forbidden obsession. And a love that demands a body count.

✦ RITVIKA KAPOOR ✦
A girl who carries the sun in her smile and storms in her silence.
She wasn't raised in riches, but she's richer than most-in love, in softness, in strength. A single mother at 24, her heart beats not just for herself, but for her little girl who calls her "Mumma."
𝙎𝙞𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 is her language and 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝 her comfort-she loves quietly, endures deeply. Every scar has a story, but she chooses not to tell them, only to live past them.
She dreams of love, but doesn't expect it.
She hopes for a miracle, yet walks through life with calm acceptance.
She is a - ❝ Khud se zyada kisi aur ke liye jeene wali ladki. ❞

His presence demands silence.
A man built from shadows and steel. Cold eyes, sharp suits, and a reputation darker than the night. He's the kind of man who doesn't flinch at loss, and never looks back once he walks away.
A CEO, a name whispered in fear, a heart hidden behind layers of pain and pride.
Commitments? He avoids them.
Emotions? He shuts them out.
Children? He doesn't do soft things-until Tara calls him "Dadda."
He doesn't believe in second chances,
but somehow, Ritvika feels like the home he never had.
He is a - ❝ Mohabbat se door bhaagne wala, lekin mohabbat mein doobta hua aadmi. ❞
