"So, you think you can keep up with me?"
"No," he whispered, eyes locked on hers. "I don't want to keep up. I want to rise with you."
She is his Moonlight. He is her Sunshine.
Vardhan Malhotra, who has never met anyone capable of making him feel weak in the knees, confident yet cautious in his world of business and power, meets Anvika Shrivastava in a bustling university corridor, rushing with papers and determination, completely unaware of the world watching her every move.
Anvika Shrivastava, an ambitious, intelligent, and radiant young woman-outgoing with people she knows, introverted with strangers, and entirely focused on achieving her dreams as a research scientist.
Before they even realized it, they had become each other's world... yet a quiet storm waits on the horizon.
Two souls, one love... can they survive the storms of fate?

"He loved her not to be loved back, but to remind her what love was meant to be." °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Aradhya Khanna stopped believing in forever the day her mother walked away. She grew up watching her father hide heartbreak behind gentle smiles, and somewhere along the way, love turned into something she didn't trust anymore. Now a successful interior designer with walls higher than her dreams, she lives her life by one rule-never expect too much from anyone. So when her father asks her to marry Rudransh Malhotra, his best friend's son and her childhood protector, she agrees... not for love, but for him. Rudransh has loved her quietly for years-through her anger, her silence, and the distance she built between them, she's always been the reason behind his patience, and now... his pain. In a marriage that begins out of duty, will love find its way through the cracks of old wounds? Or will Aradhya's fear of losing love again destroy the one person who always chose her-selflessly? Because sometimes, the most selfless love is the one that waits... and heals.

I pushed him back, my hands trembling as tears streamed down my face. My eyes burned, eyes red and vision blurring. My throat felt tight, almost like it was wrapped in thorned vines, and the vine waiting to snap my breath away. "YOU ALREADY DO!" he snapped, his voice finally breaking through, louder than before. His fingers dragged through his hair as he let out a harsh exhale, eyes squeezing shut for a moment like he was trying to hold himself together. And I looked at him, really looked at him. He was breaking. Because of me. A moment later, his eyes opened again and this time, they found mine. He started walking toward me with slow steps, like he was afraid I'd soon disappear. "You already love me, Ira," he said, almost a whisper. "What's stopping you?" His voice fragile in a way that hurts more than his shouting. He finally reached me, his hands lifting to hold mine but I pulled back instantly. "A blooming lotus can never love a withered rose, Krishav."
