Veil Of Deception

Aarohi Rathore is more than just the heir to a ruthless mafia empire-she's a woman with dreams beyond bloodshed. While her father forces her deeper into the underworld, she secretly longs to build her own empire in fashion and business. But when fate entangles her with Vivaan Mehra, a powerful CEO and her biggest rival, their cold war turns into something far more dangerous.

A contract marriage binds them together-a business deal meant to benefit both. To Vivaan, she is nothing more than a cunning, ambitious woman. To Aarohi, he is the man standing in her way. But neither realizes the depth of the deception at play.

When Vivaan is kidnapped, Aarohi is forced to step out of the shadows, unleashing the ruthless side she's kept hidden. But secrets don't stay buried forever. And when the truth comes to light, will their love survive, or will their war consume them both?

Teaser with Dialogue:

"Marry me."

Aarohi tilted her head, a smirk playing on her lips. "I'm sorry, did you hit your head on the way in?"

Vivaan's eyes darkened. "It's a contract. Business. Nothing more."

She leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand. "Oh? And what makes you think I'd agree to that?"

"Because I know you, Rathore," he said smoothly. "You want power, just like I do. This deal benefits both of us."

Aarohi held his gaze, pretending to consider his words. If only he knew. If only he understood the world she truly ruled.

"Fine," she said at last, standing up. She stepped closer, watching the flicker of surprise in his eyes. "But be careful, Mr. Mehra. You might not like what you just signed up for."
