In the glittering world of wealth and power, where royal bloodlines rule kingdoms disguised as empires, one name is spoken with equal parts fear and reverence-Veeraj Singhania.
Prince by birth. King by power. Mafia by destiny.
With his sharp mind, ruthless ambition, and an empire built on shadows, Veeraj has always been untouchable. Women dream of his attention, enemies bow to his command, and his family relies on his strength to protect their throne. Yet beneath the royal charm and business prestige, Veeraj is feared as the crowned shadow-a man who never loses, never bends, and never falls.
Until he meets Jaanvi Maheshwari.
A soft, innocent, and hardworking girl, Jaanvi enters his empire not as a queen, but as an intern in his company. With her shy eyes, clumsy nature, and quiet determination, she is everything Veeraj's world is not-gentle where he is harsh, pure where he is tainted, light where he is darkness. She comes from a loving and humble home, raised only by her kind-hearted father and a caretaker who treasures her like her own. Jaanvi is wealthy, yes, but her soul is rich with something far rarer-innocence.
For Veeraj, one look is enough.
The moment he lays eyes on her, obsession strikes like lightning. Her every blush, every nervous fumble, every stolen glance fuels a fire inside him he has never known. He doesn't see an intern; he sees his destiny. He doesn't see a girl; he sees his queen. And once Veeraj Singhania wants something, the world knows-he will have it, at any cost.
But love born from obsession is never simple.
Is she strong enough to step into his shadows? Or will Veeraj's all-consuming love destroy the very girl he swore to protect?
"You don't understand, Jaanvi," he whispers, his voice both a promise and a threat. "You were never just an intern. From the moment you walked into my world... you became mine."
"He thought she destroyed his sister's life. So he destroyed hers.
But the truth was never hers to tell."
Saanvi Roy never expected her kindness to cost her everything.
Accused of ruining the life of a billionaire's beloved sister, she's kidnapped and forced into a loveless, brutal marriage with Ahaan Mehra-a man carved from rage and vengeance.
To him, she's a liar. A manipulator. A disgrace.
To her, he's her punishment for sins she never committed.
But the more she suffers in silence, the more cracks begin to show in Ahaan's armor. And when the truth finally surfaces, he realizes he didn't marry a monster-he became one.
And she might never love him again
