ENEMIES AT THE ALTAR

The Heir's Bride

He was raised to inherit an empire.
She was raised to never belong to one completely.

When the powerful Rathore and Malhotra families force a marriage to rebuild business ties, two people with completely opposite worlds are pushed under the same roof.

Ekansh Rathore - cold, unreadable, and terrifyingly composed, is the perfect Rathore heir. A man who speaks in silence, controls every room he walks into, and has never once lived for himself.

Ishitha Malhotra - stubborn, emotional, and impossible to control, refuses to become another quiet trophy bride trapped beneath old traditions.

They clash.
They fight.
They burn.

But somewhere between rivalry, tension-filled glances, midnight arguments, stolen softness, and a marriage neither wanted...

they begin falling for each other in the most dangerous way possible.

Because love was never the problem.

The problem was;
How do two heirs raised for legacy choose each other over everything else?

Tropes:

Enemies to lovers
Arranged marriage
Billionaire heir × independent businesswoman
Forced proximity
Slow burn romance
Family politics & business drama
"Mine" without toxicity
Powerful couple energy
Emotional intimacy > perfect love

In a world where families fight for legacy and power, Ekansh and Ishitha accidentally discover something far more terrifying:

A love strong enough to change them both.
