FURY & DESIRE ~toofan-e-ishq

Samira Chauhan's POV:

The truth about my marriage with Arvind could destroy everything I've worked for. As the CEO of my fashion brand, I've built an image of strength, independence, and power. If anyone found out about the deal that tied me to Arvind-my childhood enemy, my forced partner-it would be seen as a weakness. The media would tear me apart, my competitors would use it against me, and everything I've built would crumble. But that's not the only reason. The truth is, I don't trust him. I can't let anyone know that he holds this power over me, even if it's a marriage born of necessity and not love. I have too much to lose.

Arvind Mehra's POV:

Samira doesn't know it yet, but I've got her exactly where I want her. I've always had a plan, and this marriage is the ultimate chess move. She thinks it's a secret because I'm trying to protect her-or worse, protect my own reputation. But the truth is, this marriage gives me leverage. I can tear down her empire from within, and no one will ever know it was me. Keeping it a secret keeps her off guard, keeps her vulnerable. It also keeps me in control. The last thing I need is for the world to see us together. But I'm not just playing to win. I want her to fall for me. And when she does, she'll never see it coming.
