The Beast's Beauty [On Hold]

❝"I refuse!", was her deafening scream. The temple full of people stood in silence. He watched her, taken aback at the audacity, but not out of his icy cold composure.
He took a step towards her.
"Step back! Step away-"
He yanked her by her wrist, she bumped onto him. For moments, she froze, and then he said in a whisper,
"It was never a choice."❞

Aviram Raghuvanshi was the end. The business magnate had the whole country, if not the whole world, under his control. The family, of Royals, had never seen defeat. He was the coldest night, and yet the fire that devoured everything.
He was destruction.

Devika Leela Kanwar was the beginning. Freshly graduated in classical dance, she knows only the language of love. From a middle class family, for her nothing was beyond her father, a priest, and her art.

When on one fateful evening her paths cross Aviram on his visit to his traditional temple, she crosses the line.

And all hell breaks loose.
