A tragedy separates two destined royal heirs for a decade, only for fate to bring them back together under extraordinary circumstances. On Veer's 16th birthday, his older brother-the crowned prince-is assassinated by enemies targeting the royal family. The loss changes Veer's life, sending him into exile abroad for safety and leaving him haunted by guilt. When he returns at 26, hardened and cynical, he reunites with Princess Aadhira, the innocent yet resilient woman he was fated to marry. Their reunion is anything but smooth as love, duty, and redemption intertwine in this tale of destiny and courage.

"Veer ji!" she declared dramatically, standing like she was leading a protest. "We want to go inside our room. You cannot keep us standing here." OUR room?! "I am your legally married wife," she continued, placing a hand on her chest like she was reciting a national pledge. "And he is your son." I swear to god, my soul left my body for a second. MY WHAT?! "MY SON?!" I exploded, staring at her like she had grown three heads. "Gosh, I HAVE A SON WITHOUT EVEN TOUCHING MY OWN DAMN WIFE?! JUST GREAT!" Siya just smirked. Siya Rathore never imagined herself in an arranged marriage-let alone to Veer Pratap Singh, the cold, brooding heir of a Rajasthani royal family. Where Siya is soft-spoken and gentle, Veer is gruff and distant, a man of few words but piercing stares. Thrown into a world of tradition, grandeur, and expectations, Siya struggles to find her place in a marriage that feels more like a contract than a bond. But in stolen glances and quiet moments, she begins to see glimpses of a man who isn't as unfeeling as he appears. Veer never wanted a wife. But Siya-shy yet strong, delicate yet determined-is unraveling the walls he spent years building. And no matter how much he tries to resist, fate has a way of bringing souls together... even the most unlikely ones. 💛 A slow-burn, grumpy x sunshine arranged marriage romance set against the backdrop of Rajasthan's royal legacy.
