Book 2 The Ruthless Ties Series
An innocent heart collided with a ruthless soul, in a world where mercy had no place.
Fate, ever cruel, bound them in a dance neither could escape.
Written in Reverie - the second book in the Ruthless Ties series - is a story about the collision of innocence and ruthlessness, of shattered dreams and rewritten fates.
The story of an undestined fate - of two souls from completely opposite worlds, opposite bloodlines - colliding in a marriage built on convenience, forced consequences, and the crushing weight of duty and morality, set against a backdrop of a morally grey world.
Alekha Agnihotri, the eldest princess of the Agnihotri family, watches her heart, her hopes, and her dreams shatter in a single night. With no path left to choose, she is forced to accept her fate as the enemies of her nation, Auveria, step forward in her rescue.
In Rostavich, she is surrounded by threats cloaked in shadows; safety is a fleeting illusion.
But standing between her and annihilation is Igor Sokolov - a man with no heart, no mercy.
A killer. A ruthless villain carved from ice and blood, whose hands have long forgotten kindness.
And yet, in the ashes of lost dreams and fractured loyalties, a story neither of them was meant to live begins to unfold.

#trending 1 on 17-10-25 (#book-2 of PAKHI ) PROLOGUE :- I've seen the love that burned its own home to ashes. I've seen him drown himself in alcohol-not for pleasure, not for addiction-but to escape her. To blur the edges of the memories that refused to fade. Her presence haunts him like a ghost he can't outrun. And his heart... I've seen it clench, tremble, shatter. Over and over again. I was there when he fell to his knees for her. I've witnessed every single change in him-because of her. She didn't just love a monster... she changed him. She turned the devil into a man. And yet- She left. Left him with nothing but misunderstandings and silence. And now, their lives have once again dived into the same ocean they once tried to swim across together- An ocean full of hate, betrayal, ruthlessness. New entries are coming-people who will twist their fate. Old secrets are still buried, hidden faces moving the pieces behind the destruction I'm standing in the middle of. He once burned a country when he said he hated her. And she? She stood still. Took everything he threw at her. The pain. The humiliation. The disrespect. Like she was born to carry it. But just think. Just think for a moment. Just for a fucking moment- What happens... when they love each other again? What happens when the misunderstandings clear, when the pain turns to passion, when the hate turns into something softer, deeper, dangerous? What happens when he claims her again? If hate made him burn the world- What the hell will love make him do?Written in Shackles

"Millions of reasons, Tanya. All perfectly legal, or perfectly arranged to seem that way. I don't make threats. I explain consequences." He stepped close to her again, cupping her chin with his hand. His touch was like ice. She was too terrified to pull away. "So, you will sit tight. You will go to your school. You will teach my nephew. And you will look very, very pretty while doing it. You will not make me angry again. Understood?" A single, hot tear of pure, helpless rage escaped and traced a path down her cheek. He saw it. His dark eyes glittered with a perverse kind of satisfaction. He leaned in, his lips brushing her cheekbone where the tear had fallen. The kiss was chillingly soft, a brand of ownership. "You see?" he murmured, his breath warm against her skin. "You look so pretty when you cry angrily. Like a good girl who finally understands her place." ___________________________________________ Love is a lie they tell to make obsession sound pretty.
