Prologue:
"Love me or hate me, both are in my favour. For if you love me I will always be in your heart; if you hate me I will always be in your mind."
― William Shakespeare
Viraj saw the same glimmer in those little doe eyes that he had once witnessed when she insulted him in the party.
How the wind changed for him that day, when he saw a different aura flowing through her?
A change which committed him to love her throughout his life. A love that shattered all his hate for her.
The love that made him jealous and scared of himself. Threatening him to not confess to her.
Because he knew the day he would, she will hate him more.
He would let his heart go through anything in this world but not her hatred.
Let me take you through the journey of man who fell in love with a woman he could never have. Bringing to you the next Slow Burn Romance 'The Rich Man and His Lady' just for you....

#1stStory She swore to hate him- He swore to own her- "Marriage doesn't work like this," she hissed, breath shaky. His lips curved into a dark smile. "In my world, marriage works however I want. Either you marry me, or I'll ruin you first-and still make you mine." Her palm cracked across his cheek. "Shut up, bastard!" He stilled, slowly touching the sting she left behind. His eyes burned with something deadly-and hungry. "You shouldn't have done that," he whispered. "Now you'll never get rid of me." She stumbled back to the window. "I'll jump! I'll end it here!" "Jump," he said smoothly, almost amused. "I'll catch you in the air. I'll follow you to hell if I have to. Baby, you don't escape me-not in this life, not the next." Her body trembled on the ledge. "I'm serious." He moved behind her, wrapping her waist in a bruising grip. His breath scorched her skin as his mouth pressed cagainst her neck. "So am I. If you jump, I'll fall with you. Heaven, hell, doesn't matter-" his lips dragged along her throat, possessive and cruel, "-you'll still be mine before we hit the ground." ♧•°●●°•♧ #1 femaledoctor #1 intenseromance #1 loveandpower #1 Indian setting #1 Citylife #1 CrazinessComplete

With his index finger he raised her chin high enough to make her fearful eyes meet his raging eyes that had a hint of guilt but he brushed it away... "Princess, don't ever beg infront of anyone. Until and unless you are laying under me-with heavy breaths, sweaty body, and every inch of your fragile body being worshipped by me as you are crying and begging for more but I won't stop until I consume your whole self" he said with low and erotic voice which was hard to resist. She was shocked, feeling disgust in his arms, she struggle to free herself from his grip but it was just getting stronger. He was tightening his grip against her with every passing second.

Will they make their way to the end or his obsession ends her in a dead trap?Complete
