Bound by Power

In a world where power dictates fate, Marnika Suryavanshi and Aakarsh Singh Mehrotra stand at the pinnacle of influence-one ruling the shadows, the other reigning in the light.

Marnika, the ruthless and untouchable Queen of the Asian Mafia, has built an empire feared by all. With no family to call her own and a heart hardened by betrayal, she trusts no one but herself. Business is her only loyalty, and emotions are a weakness she refuses to indulge in.

Aakarsh, the enigmatic and dangerously charming heir to the Mehrotra dynasty, is a force to be reckoned with in both legal and illegal territories. He gets what he wants, and now, he wants her.

Their paths collide at a high-stakes auction, sparking a rivalry laced with undeniable attraction. When circumstances force them into an alliance-one sealed by marriage-both lay out their conditions. No love, no expectations, and absolute freedom. But in a game where trust is a luxury and desire is a weapon, lines blur, and rules shatter.

As Marnika battles the ghosts of her past and Aakarsh discovers emotions he never intended to feel, their war of dominance transforms into something far more dangerous. When enemies strike and betrayals surface, they must decide-will they remain bound by power, or will love become their greatest downfall?

A tale of passion, rivalry, and a love neither of them saw coming.
