She promised her parents she wouldn't fall in love. He promised her he'd wait.
Pratigya has spent her whole life sticking to rules - top grades, no distractions, and definitely no dating. A promise made to her parents is not just a rule, it's a wall she's built around her heart.
But then there's Devansh - persistent, kind, patient, and everything she ever imagined in a boy she could love... if only she were allowed to.
After rejecting him one too many times and carrying the guilt like a second skin, she finally tells him the truth.
And instead of backing off, he proposes a deal: 10 dates. No promises. No pressure. Just memories.
What starts as a countdown becomes a slow unraveling of restraint, desire, and dreams she was never supposed to have.
But what happens after the tenth?
🌸 A slow-burn college romance
🌸 Heartfelt, emotional & dramatic
🌸 Perfect for fans of arranged love vs true love

His Dua [ THE MAFIA DEVOTION]
"Don't touch me... please, don't!" Dua screamed, trembling. "Shh... it's me... it's me... Baacha," Reyansh's voice was calm, steady, wrapping around her like a lifeline. Tears streamed down her face. "He... he will... he'll hurt me too... he bought me and my sister..." she sobbed, clinging to him in desperation. "Shh... I'm so sorry for your loss. No one will hurt you... not ever," Reyansh whispered, holding her close. Her body went limp, collapsing into his arms. "Baacha... open your eyes... talk to me..." he pleaded, heart aching. But she remained silent... unresponsive... leaving him holding her fragile form, the weight of her pain crushing his soul. ✨© Kaashi WRTS | 20 September 2025 | All Rights Reserved✨ ✓ Mafia × Innocent ✓ Talkative Female × Quiet/Listening Male ✓ Professor × Hacker ✓ Billionaire × Middle Class ✓ Sweet × Grumpy ✓ Possessive × Caring ✓ Protector × Vulnerable ✓ Silent Hero × Emotional Heroine ✓ Secret Identity × Curious Heroine ✓ Revenge × Redemption ✓ Dark Past × Healing Love 2025-9-20 started (人*'K｀)｡*ﾟ+
From Stranger to Soulmates
Ananya never imagined that her college life would take such a sharp turn. With a strict family that decides her future without asking, she finds herself married to Devansh Rathor-a man she barely knows. Devansh, the charming Rathor heir, is everything she isn't expecting-patient, kind, and supported by a family who welcomes her with open arms. While her own family never gave her the freedom to dream, his family shows her what love, respect, and belonging truly mean. From awkward first meetings in the college corridors to stolen glances as husband and wife, their journey is anything but ordinary. Between assignments, whispered arguments, and unspoken feelings, a bond begins to bloom. Will Ananya find her voice in this new chapter? And will Devansh's steady heart be enough to heal the wounds of her past? A story of arranged vows, unexpected love, and the magic of finding a home in someone's heart.
