So yes-another royal novel on Wattpad.
But not that kind.
The male lead is a king, but there's no mafia nonsense here. He's not going to shoot every man who looks at his wife. He understands that a woman can have male friends, that a handshake isn't a threat, and that not every man who speaks to the female lead is evil.
Mostly because he knows something very important.
She doesn't need saving.
She is more than capable of breaking bones if someone touches her inappropriately, poking eyes if someone looks at her the wrong way, and knocking out teeth if someone dares to disrespect her.
The female lead is not your typical Sati-Savitri, Sarvagun-Sampann heroine.
Okay-she is.
But she's also a bad bitch. A modern woman with ambition, power, and dreams bigger than palaces.
The characters in this story are kaleshi, not toxic.
And yes-there is a difference.
There may not be clear villains here. And even if there are, remember this:
Every villain is a victim of something too.
This is a story of royalty without glorifying control.
Power without erasing softness.
An arranged marriage that turns into love-slowly, painfully, beautifully.
Desi. Royal. Emotional.
And unapologetically different.
