"Outside these walls, my word is law. Inside this room... you are nothing to me."
In the dusty, power-hungry heart of Rohtak, Haryana, one name commands absolute silence: Astra Sangwan. A ruthless Zameendar (landowner) with olive skin, eyes as cold as winter, and a heart made of stone. He didn't want a wife; he wanted a shadow.
Enter Riva.
Labelled 'manhoos' (cursed) by a society that blamed her for her first husband's death, Riva is traded into the Sangwan haveli like a piece of property. But Astra is about to learn that Riva isn't the fragile doll her family promised. She doesn't bow. She doesn't whisper 'Ji Huzoor.' She looks him in the eye and challenges the very authority he spent a lifetime building.
One is a storm of Haryanvi pride and cold arrogance.
The other is a fire of silent secrets and a past that could burn the haveli to the ground.
When a forced marriage becomes a battleground of egos, who will surrender first? Will Astra be able to keep his distance when the woman he claims to hate is the only one who dares to stand up to him? Or will Riva's hidden 'curse' destroy them both before love even has a chance?
What's Inside:
Enemies to Lovers: From cold shoulders to heated arguments.
Forced Marriage Tropes: The "One Bed" struggle and the "Saree Draping" tension.
The Alpha Hero: A traditional, possessive Zameendar with a Haryanvi heart.
The Fierce Heroine: She's been through hell and she's not afraid of a little more.
Desi Flavor: Authentic Haryanvi culture mixed with high-stakes family drama.

RIDDHI : her broken love and his vengeful intentions
Riddhi~Advik ✨ "why... why me?" " Advik " she cried. "Tell me what you want..." "You want me to marry you, right? You want them to feel the same pain your family felt, the pain you felt." A harsh, broken laugh escaped his lips, his eyes mirroring the torment within. "Really? You think I did all this to marry you? No..no..no. Riddhi Sharma, marrying you would mean giving you respect, a positive reputation, and believe me, that's not my plan. Marriage is a holy thing, and you don't deserve that," he said with hatred. "Do you know what my plans are for you?" She looked at him, her eyes wide with confusion. "aapki ye Aankhen ...." His fingers tightened on her jaw, his voice a low growl. " in Mein Yeh masoomiyat Sab chalawa hai" (Your eyes...This innocence in them, it's all a facade.) "Hum apse kabhi vivah nahi krege ..ye lal rang pasand hai na apko...." His eyes burned with hatred. " to suniye ye lal rag to hoga apke upar pr pavitra ka nahi balki lalchan ka ..en akhon me kajal hoga magar kalank ka ... Aap har roj sajegi riddhi magar sirf humare raaton ke liye..." " hum apse sab cheen lenge riddhi jis tarah humse sab cheena gya tha " (I will never marry you. You like the color red, don't you?" His eyes burned with hatred. " Well, you will wear red, but not the red of purity, the red of disgrace. There will be kohl in your eyes, but the kohl of shame. You will adorn yourself every day, Riddhi, but only for my nights...) His voice trailed off, a dark promise hanging in the air. "I will take everything from you, Riddhi, just as everything was taken from me." With a sudden, violent motion, he tore her suit, the sound ripping through the silence. "Every night I spend with you will give you pain, a feeling so intense that death will seem preferable." That night, both had tears in their eyes. The reason was the same: love, twisted and broken.
