Smriti Srivastava.
She learned too early how cruel the world could be.
Her mother's death forced her to grow up fast.
Her stepmother taught her silence.
Her first love? Untouched. Unseen. A boy who never looked her way, but owned every heartbeat she had.

Now a 23-year-old software engineer at Ahuja Industries, she lives alone, far from her past, clinging to the few people who stayed-her younger brother Aryan, her best friends Suhani and Isha.
She has a calm smile and a shy voice...
But inside? She's chaos. Rage. Fire no one dared touch.

Until one day, her parents arrived-with a demand that changed her life.
A marriage.
A trap.
A betrayal.

What made her say yes to a man she didn't love?
And how did that "yes" become her worst nightmare?


---

Rishabh Singhania.
25. Cold. Dangerous. Richer than god.
The former CEO of Singhania Tech Ascendancy-Asia's #1 company.
But boardrooms are only part of his empire.
In shadows, he's feared. Respected. Untouchable.

No attachments.
No rules beyond his own.
No weaknesses.

Until her.

She wasn't part of the plan.
He doesn't want her.
So why does her presence crawl under his skin like fire?


---

Together...
He wasn't supposed to be her savior.
She wasn't supposed to touch his cold heart.
But fate had other plans.

When the past collides with the present,
when lies start falling apart...
Will obsession be enough to survive the truth?

Or will it destroy them both?

85 parts Complete
"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. They call him the Devil-a man who walks through life with a heart sealed shut and a soul drenched in darkness. His love is a storm, his silence is louder than chaos. He's sweet only for those he calls family... and bitter to the rest of the world. ROSHINI MALHOTRA - 24. A firecracker wrapped in innocence. 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?
