She was nothing.
To her family a burden.
To the world is invisible.
But to him she was everything he never knew he needed.
And everything he would never let go.
Chaaya, just 18, orphaned and trapped in a home that never knew love raised by a cruel uncle, tormented by a venomous aunt, and humiliated by a jealous cousin. Her days were filled with bruises, silence, and servitude. Yet she endured, hiding her pain behind innocent eyes and quiet smiles.
But fate doesn't knock gently.
It crashes in.
At her college's annual function, he arrived the chief guest. The king of Jaipur. The most feared name in business.
Kunal Shekhawat, 27 a dangerously calm man with eyes that command empires... and a soul carved in violence. The world knows him as a billionaire royal.
But in the shadows, he is something far more terrifying.
The secret leader of India's most feared mafia syndicate.
And when his gaze meets hers, it's not admiration.
It's possession.
He doesn't believe in love.
Only in claiming, Controlling. Consuming.
Now, Chaaya's life is no longer her own.
Because Kunal Shekhawat doesn't take no for an answer.
He'll burn the world to have her.
Even if she breaks in the process.
After all, obsessions are not always born from love.
Sometimes, they're born from the darkest corners of the soul
