Moving into his brother's old apartment was never Vedant Malhotra's choice. Neither was meeting Shoumili Banerjee, the girl upstairs, who looked at him as if his very existence offended her. Sharp-tongued, guarded and impossible to understand, Shumi was exactly the kind of trouble Ved avoided. Except he needed her. To convince a stubborn music teacher for his sister's school and to help him organise an apartment that felt less abandoned and more... disturbed. So they made a deal which was supposed to be simple and temporary. But nothing about Shumi was ever simple. She went silent whenever his brother's name came up, dodged certain questions and carried a loneliness she refused to explain. The more she pushed him away, the deeper Ved found himself drawn to her. Then... She screamed... Ved found her trembling in the dark, clinging to him like he was the only thing keeping her alive. But Something watched from the shadows. Something that refused to let Shumi go. Ved instantly knew that loving her might cost him his sanity, and it might drag him straight into hell, but he wasn't going to walk away. He would fight. Fight till death do them part.
