Terms of Desire by pooh_bani_parwati

She met her boss the same way some people fall in love - loudly, recklessly, and with a crash. A fiery street-side argument with a smug stranger should've been the end of it. But when Arya Diwan walked into her new job - late, flustered, and fuming - only to find him seated at the head of the boardroom table, she knew this job wouldn't just challenge her résumé. Sahir Nanda is cold-blooded brilliance in a tailored suit. As the ruthless MD of a corporate empire, he doesn't tolerate mistakes - or backtalk. And yet, Arya does both. Constantly. Boldly. And somehow, irresistibly. What begins as a war of words and ego, turns into something far messier: stolen glances, breathless silences, and a chemistry neither of them has the power to ignore. But with power plays, buried pasts, and a two-week ultimatum hanging over them, desire was never supposed to get this personal. In a world of power suits and power moves, what happens when the person you were hired to impress becomes the one you can't seem to forget? Can desire stay professional? Or will their fire consume everything - including their hearts?

Normally, that's not much of an issue. They only cross paths occasionally. And when they do, it's as if they've made an unspoken agreement: keep as much distance as humanly possible. But then a mistake forces them to spend the next 72 hours working together. In the same office. A nightmare for both of them ... or maybe something else?
