His Innocent Bride

Six years ago, Shreyansh Agnihotri's name was everywhere. Not for success. Not for power. But for murder.

At twenty-five, he was sent to prison. At thirty-one, he walked out, silent, unreadable, and carrying a darkness no one dared to question.

But freedom didn't mean choice. Because before he could decide anything for himself, his father decided his future.

Marriage.

And the bride chosen for him was twenty-two-year-old Mishri Sharma. A girl who still believed marriages were built on love.

No one asked her what she wanted.
No one cared what he felt.

Two strangers.
One forced relationship.

Mishri never spoke in front of him. She moved around him like he was a storm she didn't want to trigger.

Until one night... she finally looked up at him.
And for the first time, she questioned him.
Her voice was soft, but it held courage.

He didn't argue.
He didn't shout.
He simply stepped closer... caught her by the wrist... and before she could say another word...

He kissed her.
Not tender.
Not romantic.
Just enough to silence her.

And from that moment, everything between them changed.

Now the question remains:

Will Mishri's innocence survive a man who has forgotten how to feel?

Or will she be the one who teaches him that even the coldest hearts can burn again?
