"Oh, you're using sir now? How polite of you. Did a fairy bite you overnight?"
She didn't even blink.
"No, but apparently I needed to remind myself how to behave in the presence of egotistical bosses."
I smirked again. Fire. Always fire with this girl.
"You call that a reminder? You stormed into my cabin like it's a wrestling ring."
Her eyes blazed like I'd challenged her to a duel.
"Because that's what this job feels like lately. Wrestling with my sanity."
"Then maybe you should quit before you embarrass yourself."
"Oh no, sir. Quitting is for the weak. I stay. I slay. And I collect pay."
That caught me off guard. I let out a short laugh genuine, rare.
"Is that a quote from your diary or from others' dairy?"
She rolled her eyes but didn't budge.
"You think this is funny? Humiliating me every second day? Whispering threats in an elevator like we're in some psychological thriller?"
I stepped closer, voice dropping.
"You think I care about you or what you think?"
Silence.
"You wore the other perfume today."
"Oh, you noticed."
"You have nothing to notice."
The air shifted-tense, dense. Even my breath slowed.
"Sorry, I didn't know your nose was on the board of directors."
I stepped even closer, locking eyes with her.
"Careful, Mannat. You're in my territory now."
But she didn't even flinch. Just whispered with deadly precision
"And you're in mine, every time you talk like that."

FATE ( Part 1 )
"Oh my God, Ishaan! You smoke? Mtlb Aapko lung cancer ho gaya kya?!" Ishaan clenched his jaw. "Roshini-" "Ab toh bas chemotherapy ka option bacha hai!" She dramatically wiped a fake tear. Ishaan groaned, unable to take it anymore. In one swift motion, he leaned forward, closing the space between them. Roshini's breath hitched. The playfulness in her eyes faded as she suddenly became aware of how close he was. His sharp features were just inches away, the warmth of his breath mingling with hers. Ishaan smirked, voice dangerously low. "Agar main cigarette peeta, toh tumhe ab tak uski smell nahi aa jati, Roshini?" Her lips parted slightly, but no words came out. He leaned in just a little more, enough to see her gulp nervously. Eyeing her up and down he said, "Aur waise bhi... mujhe addiction sirf ek hi cheez ki hai. Aur woh cigarette nahi hai." -------------- ISHAAN SINGH RAJAWAT - 27. The ruthless CEO the world fears. Handsome, arrogant, and dangerously charming.

A middle-class girl with dreams too big for the world to handle. She's clumsy, outspoken, and unapologetically herself. A mess of emotions, laughter, and unpredictable charm. Her heart speaks louder than her mind-and trouble always seems to follow. He's darkness. She's light. He believes in control. She thrives in chaos. They were never meant to cross paths... but fate had other plans. Will love bloom in the shadows of pain? Or will destiny tear them apart before their story even begins? When fire meets ice-will it melt... or burn?Complete
"Whispers of Fate"
Two orphaned best friends, Aarya and Mannat, have survived every storm together, but nothing prepares them for the tempest that two of the country's most powerful men bring into their lives. Aarya, fierce and unyielding, believes in fighting for what's right. When she stands in the way of Ranveer Rathore, a ruthless businessman who stops at nothing to expand his empire, she unknowingly signs her fate. Ranveer, a man accustomed to getting what he wants, sees Aarya as nothing more than an obstacle-one he will crush at any cost. But when her resistance costs him a major deal, he takes revenge in the cruelest way possible-by forcefully making her his wife. Bound in a marriage of power, control, and defiance, they wage a war neither of them is ready to lose. Mannat, soft-spoken and kind-hearted, has always been the one to bring peace. But when Aarya's freedom is at stake, she makes the ultimate sacrifice-offering herself to Vihaan Rajput, a cold, calculating billionaire who sees marriage as nothing more than a business deal. Vihaan's inheritance depends on him producing an heir, and he needs a woman who will carry his child and walk away when the time comes. Mannat agrees, thinking she can remain untouched by a man who has no heart. But she doesn't expect to uncover the man hidden beneath the ice. And Vihaan doesn't expect that the woman he thought was merely a contract will become his greatest obsession. As fate, power, and desire entangle their lives, Aarya and Mannat find themselves trapped in marriages where love was never part of the equation. But the heart has a way of rewriting rules, and when hate turns into something far more dangerous, the question remains-who will break first? A story of power, revenge, sacrifice, and an unexpected love that defies all boundaries.Complete
