Dard E Ishq

"Monsters aren't born. Sometimes... the world forces them into existence. And sometimes, an angel walks straight into their darkness."

Ruhi Mehra

never thought her life would become someone else's battlefield. Soft-spoken, gentle, unbearably innocent-she survived in silence, shrinking herself to escape the cruelty of a world that never seemed to care. Adopted by a family that never loved her, she learned early that life was about surviving, not thriving. And yet, despite everything, her heart still believed in love-a dangerous love she never saw coming.

Advait Rai Singhania

cold, ruthless, devastatingly handsome-married her for revenge. He didn't want a wife. He wanted a weapon. He wanted her to suffer for sins she didn't commit.

Their worlds collide in fire and fury. His anger, sharp and unyielding. Her tears, quiet and endless. He freezes her out; she still reaches. He hurts; she trembles. She falls first-silently, secretly, hopelessly. But her innocence... it's a weapon he never expected. Her tender heart shatters the walls he built around himself.

"Touch her... and you die."

The man who terrified her becomes the shield she never had. Slowly, painfully, Advait unravels. Her softness irritates him, her kindness haunts him, her tears destroy him. And that smile-the one she hides behind sorrow-ruins him completely.

He falls harder, darker, deeper than she ever could. Every scar he left, every cold word, every cruel act becomes a war inside him-a fight to earn the right to love her. When the truth of her past surfaces-adoption, abuse, the fragile innocence she protected-Advait realizes he never married a pawn. He married his undoing.

A story of hate turning into a love that consumes, a monster learning to hold an angel without breaking her... and an angel discovering that even devils can love gently.

Slow burn. Bruising ache. Healing fire. And a happy ending born from revenge.
