"I was sold to a monster to save my family. I didn't expect the monster to be the one to save me." Akash is the third of four brothers-the artistic soul in a family of titanium and stone. When his father's empire begins to crumble, Akash is the price paid for its survival. The deal? A forced marriage to Vikram, the "Mafia-type" CEO of their greatest rival. Cold, ruthless, and mysterious, Vikram is a man people whisper about in shadows. Terrified for his life, Akash attempts a chaotic, fourth-floor escape on his wedding night, only to land right at Vikram's feet. But as the gold embroidery comes off and the mansion doors close, the "monster" reveals a different side.

Little by little, with staged accidents which her daughter gladly played the part, their love, trust, and respect for you disappeared. The pair always played the victim, accusing you of not wanting them to be apart of the family. Years flew by with this torment, no matter how much your pleaded, begged them to realize that you would never do any of that. They never listened, and the breaking point came when you finally realized that nothing will ever change. It will always be her, not you. So, the first chance you got you left that house.

Who knew that you'd be living a life far from normal as a horror circus rolls into town and you catch their attention when you saved their quiet Pierrot. The love you so craved from family, he will give it to you, destroy anything that dares to snuff it out, and give you all that is his. Though, he might not be the only one...
