Bound by an arranged marriage, Kabir Randhawa, a cold, calculated business tycoon, and Sanzh Mishra, a fiercely independent artist, are trapped in a toxic cycle of obsession, betrayal, and manipulation. As they try to control each other, they discover that their greatest enemy is not each other but the suffocating expectations of their families.

Obsession and Madness: Their love is destructive, a spiraling obsession where neither is truly free, and both are losing their sanity.

Betrayal
Strong obsession 
Intense Romance

Kayalvizhi is a young woman from a village where farming is the most significant source of income. Her world is full of the day-to-day tasks, and she has little time to think of anything else. That all changed when she "met" him. Uthiyan returns to the village after being away for years. He has barely settled in before he is told to marry Kayal. He resists, not wanting to be forced to marry, or so he says. Kayalvizhi exudes an aura of beauty and innocence that should have tempted him, right? Unfortunately, she must embark on a journey to break down the walls surrounding his heart, even if it means pushing through her innocence to become a temptress. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The more you try, the more you'll burn in the end, Kayal. You'll turn into ashes and dissipate into the wind. Can you handle the consequences then?" He pulls away and a chill goes down my spine at the sudden loss of his warmth. Without another word, he packs his things as I watch, frozen in place. When he leaves, he doesn't turn around to look back at me. As I watch his form fade in the distance, a lone tear slips out of my eye, slowly caressing my cheek before falling onto the earth below, disappearing into its depths. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kayal: "I vowed to marry him or end my life." Uthiyan: "I wanted to resist, but I could never resist her." . . . . . . . . . . . . . #1 villagelovestory (04/16/25) #2 uyir (06/21/25) #1 uyir (11/07/25) #1 temptress (11/07/25) #1 divine (12/09/25) #2 tamilstory (11/13/25) #162 heartbreak (01/14/26)

This is the storm before even the idea of love. 🔥 Tropes & Themes: Revenge Marriage / Forced Proximity Forced Marriage 💍 Mafia Boss × Cop's Daughter 💣 Enemies to Lovers Obsession to Devotion 🖤 Slow-Burn Romance with High Spice 🌡️ Obsession, Power, and Control
