The Throne without Queen

"Usne apna jism diya virasat ke liye, aur apna dil is ghalatfahmi mein kho diya ke woh sirf ek contract thi."

Adhvik Raichand never believed in love-only in legacy. A feared mafia king and an untouchable CEO, he has enemies waiting for his fall and no bloodline to secure his empire. To him, emotions are weaknesses and people are replaceable. So he makes a decision that feels clean, logical, and controlled: he will have an heir without a wife.

Ishita Rao enters his world not as a dream, but as a solution.

A brilliant student crushed under financial desperation, she agrees to a surrogacy contract that promises education, security, and freedom. She does not ask for affection. She does not expect kindness. She believes she can walk away untouched-because she has survived worse.

There are rules. There are boundaries. There is no love.

But presence changes things power cannot predict.

As the child grows, silence becomes heavier, control begins to crack, and emotions both of them swore to deny start demanding space. Ishita fights to keep her identity intact in a world that only values her utility. Adhvik struggles with the one thing he has never allowed himself to feel-attachment that cannot be commanded or owned.

This is not a story about romance. It is a story about power, consent, and the quiet destruction of two people who never planned to need each other.

Because some legacies are built on blood. And some hearts break the moment they are treated like property. 🩸
