Wedded In Shadows (Wedded Ties series- 1)
She was the daughter of wealth, but her fate was never hers to decide. Vivanira Rauth had dreams-dreams that didn't involve being wedded off like a mere bargaining chip.
-"You don't care about this marriage, do you?" Vivan's voice was laced with defiance.
Aadip Rohan Shanghvi was no ruthless tycoon, no feared kingpin. He was a man of dignity, a gentleman shaped by a past that left unseen scars. A respected corporate figure, fate had always played cruelly with.
-"I don't take my vows lightly Ms. Rauth" Aadip met her gaze, steady, unreadable.
They didn't ask for this marriage, but he wasn't the kind to walk away from responsibilities either.
-"And what if I do?" she challenged.
-"Then that's your choice to live with."
A marriage neither wished for, a bond neither knew how to break, but in the shadows where emotions are buried and unspoken truths lurk.

PROFESSOR HUSBAND

Aarohi Pandey, bold, brilliant, and unapologetically rebellious, never imagined her future would be tied to the man she despised most-her arrogant Biology professor, Aashutosh Kulkarni.

But when their families force them into a marriage neither of them wanted, they strike a deal-live as strangers for one year, then part ways. No feelings. No expectations. No strings. But life under the same roof begins to blur lines. Between shared silences and stolen glances, between jealousy and unspoken care, love begins to bloom where hate once grew. Will they hold on to their pride-or surrender to the feelings they never planned to have?Complete
