Bound by Fate, Trapped by Fire

She was a storm he never saw coming.
He was a fire she couldn't escape.

Ishani Sharma knew better than to believe in fairy tales. A middle-class girl burdened with responsibilities, she had no time for romance-until Vihaan Thakur shattered her world. Powerful, untouchable, and cold as ice, the billionaire didn't ask for her hand in marriage. He ensured it happened. Manipulating her family, pulling the strings behind the scenes-he bound her to him, leaving her no way out.

She swore to hate him. He never planned to love her.

But when two worlds collide, sparks don't just fly-they ignite an unstoppable wildfire. From heated arguments in grand palace hallways to forbidden glances across royal wedding rituals, Ishani finds herself unraveling in his presence. And Vihaan, the man who swore never to be touched by emotions, starts to crave the one woman who challenges his control.

Through late-night battles drenched in moonlight, stolen touches in the rain, and a marriage that blurs the line between obsession and devotion, Ishani fights to hold onto herself. But with every possessive glance, every unspoken promise in his touch, she wonders-is she trapped in his world, or has she unknowingly trapped him in hers?

In a game of power, passion, and betrayal-who will surrender first?..
