Antara Sharma
I promised myself I wouldn't do this again. 
But somehow, he's gotten under my skin. Not in the way you'd expect, though. It's the way he's always there-pushing, questioning, caring. The way he makes me laugh when I don't want to, or how he sees through me in ways that make me feel seen.
I promised myself I wouldn't let someone in again, but he's different. And that's the problem. I've been down this road before, opening up and trusting someone, only to end up broken. But this time, with him, it feels different. It feels... right.
The question is, can I let myself believe in a second chance?
Can I trust my heart, this time, to find its way home?

Aiden Asher
I want her. 
Not in some fleeting, shallow attraction. I want all of her - her laughter, her pain, the moments when she's radiant with joy and the times when she's buried behind the walls she's built so meticulously around her heart. I want to be the one to tear them down, brick by brick, not to leave her exposed, but to show her she doesn't have to carry it all alone.
I told myself I'd wait. That maybe she needed more time, more space. 
But time hasn't changed a thing. It's only made it harder. Because the truth is, she's the only one I've ever wanted, and I'm done pretending like I can stay away.


Antara Sharma, a fiercely independent lawyer haunted by betrayal, meets Aiden Asher, a charismatic entrepreneur who has loved her from a distance. As their paths intertwine, both must confront their pasts and navigate the complexities of their very different lives. Will they embrace the chance for love, or will fear keep them apart?

"I don't love you," I declare, my voice steady but my resolve wavering. He smiled at me, though his expression was tinged with pain, tears pooling in the depths of his eyes. "I knew it, you still love me so much." I was rendered speechless by his declaration, my efforts to conceal my emotions proving futile as he effortlessly deciphered the truth written in my eyes. "Say it, just once, that you love me, my Sweetheart. Just once, please," he pleaded. I finally surrendered, tears misting my own eyes as all rational thoughts scattered, "I love you. I never stopped loving you." "And I love you infinitely more," he declared, leaning closer towards my lips. I placed a trembling hand over his mouth, halting him in his tracks, and shook my head slowly. "We can't. It's wrong. We can't betray our partners." *** Two hearts, torn apart by the cruel hand of fate, find themselves face to face after 4 long years.

༺𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 "𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐃"𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒༻ ----------------------------------------------- "Verdant, leave me! What am I to you? A possession? An obsession? Leave me right now!" I yelled, trying to knock some sense into him. He slowly brushed a strand of hair behind my ear, making me feel things I didn't want to. His hand grazed my waist, the warmth of his touch brushing against my bare skin, as my top lifted slightly due to the position he held me in. He touched his forehead to mine, closing his eyes as I did, the intimacy of the moment wrapping around us. "You're my first and last love, darling. You're not just the water I need, you're the oxygen I struggle to breathe. You're my best, my worst, my life, my world. You're mine." At the last words, he placed a gentle kiss on my forehead. The soft touch calmed my muscles, but my mind was still a battlefield. Two months before my marriage, Jai used to write poetry, say sweet things, and do all these little romantic dramas. All men are manipulators. I know Vedant isn't, but I can't trust anyone right now. I wanted to push him away. "You really think you can manipulate me with sweet words? You're a manipulator, aren't you? At the end of the day, you're forcing me to choose you. And what's worst about men is that you only think about yourselves. You want me, but what about me? You never prioritise me!"
