His Quiet Ruin

Aniruddh Shekhawat is a man built from discipline, silence, and violence he never speaks about. A soldier who survives by control, he doesn't believe in softness, attachment, or love. He believes in order. In duty. In endings.
Until Zoya Khan.
She is quiet in a way that unsettles him-sharp-eyed behind her glasses, observant, untouched by the world that has already stained him. She was never meant to step into his life, never meant to be seen by him, and certainly never meant to become his weakness.
But Aniruddh does not walk away from what he wants.
What begins as protection turns into possession. What feels like safety becomes obsession. Zoya doesn't realize when his presence shifts from shadow to cage-when his silence starts to own her, when his gaze starts deciding her fate.
Because Aniruddh doesn't love gently.
He loves like a slow ruin.
And Zoya was never meant to survive him untouched.
