Passionate Devotion

➥Saanvi Malhotra never intended to become distant. Once a carefree child, her face was adorned with a perpetual smile until a traumatic incident unfolded before her eyes 18 years ago, snatching away her smile and labeling her as a murderer. Others see her as rude, but they are unaware of the torment inflicted upon her by her nightly demons.

➥Rudra Singhania, a name that commands and influences, holds the power to captivate, especially among women. His successful business career thrives without any commitment due to a past relationship that shattered his faith in love. His days are dedicated to business matters, while his nights are filled with casual encounters at clubs, earning him the reputation of the business world's playboy. However no one knows about his secret identity, a life hidden within a dark world where only blood is shed.

But all of that changed the moment he laid his eyes on Saanvi.

"I know that you're staring at me." I said, feeling his intense gaze.
"So you were staring at me too." he replied with a smirk, leaning closer and I felt nervous under his intense stare.

He became certain of his desires, determined to conquer her in his own way. Even if she were to resist, he is determined to possess her, as he believes....

"Stop calling me Pearl. I'm not yours," I snapped, irritated by a name I can't stand anymore.
He clenched his jaw and pulled me closer by grabbing the nape of my neck, making me gasp.
"You're my Pearl, and you always will be," he said. Looking into his dark eyes, I knew I was stuck with him, and there was no going back.

What happens if Rudra learns about Saanvi's past? What if he ends up losing her due to his own blunders?
