Meera, a 21st century girl is thrown into the 16th century by a mysterious accident where she is forced into marriage with the ruthless Maharaj Adhiraj, a powerful king obsessed with owning her.
But her greatest danger is Ahaan, her mysterious bodyguard who hides a deadly secret. Ahaan is not just Ahaan; he is Ahaan Suryavanshi, the prince of Madhavgarh, sent to kill her to claim his throne to Madhavgarh.
Duty and desire collide as what should be an easy kill turns into an intoxicating, forbidden passion. Ahaan is torn between claiming his crown and surrendering to the woman he can't resist. Meera caught between Adhiraj's obsession and Ahaan's fiery lust, finds herself playing a deadly game where betrayal burns hotter than love.
In a world where betrayal smolders beneath every touch, Meera and Ahaan are playing with fire. One wrong move could ignite a passion that consumes them both-or cost them everything.

The Emperor's Innocent Temptation
Jalaluddin Muhammad, The mighty and merciless Emperor of Hindustan, never believed in love. He conquered kingdoms and women with the same ruthless grip. No softness. No feelings. No attachments. But the moment his eyes fell upon Jodha Bai, the innocent and breathtaking Rajput princess he married for political gain, something in him stirred-not tenderness, but hunger. She wasn't like his harem women. She didn't flirt, didn't defy, didn't even know how tempting she was. Her shyness, her lowered lashes, her quiet tremble when he touched her-only fueled the fire inside him. He expected Fire. He received Softness. But Softness can still tame a lion-if she survived his passion.
The Rajputs

She doesn't just chase him across borders-she chases him across centuries. Suddenly, Meera wakes up in a breathtaking, powerful kingdom that shouldn't exist. It isn't in a single textbook. It has no ruins. It's a ghost in the timeline, ruled by the fiercely enigmatic King Vikram Singh Rajput. To survive and find a way home, Meera must navigate Vikram's court. What starts as a clash of eras turns into a dangerous game of secrets, political warfare, and a romance that blurs the lines between sweet devotion and dark temptation. Together, the modern historian and the erased king must uncover a terrifying truth: Why was an entire empire wiped from the face of history? Can Meera save the kingdom from its invisible fate, or will she be erased along with it? Spanning two epic seasons, this story explores the true meaning of gender equality in the face of relentless struggle, and the chaotic domino effect of being given a second chance at life.Complete
