The Crimson Vow

In the glittering heart of modern-day Delhi, the Raichand Dynasty rules more than just an empire of steel and silicon. They are the keepers of the Crimson Lotus-an ancient, shadow-bound tradition that has kept their bloodline powerful for centuries.

Every twenty-four years, during the night of the Black Moon, the heir to the throne must perform the Rakt-Arpan-a secret ritual of protection. But this year, the ritual requires something the cold, ruthless Advait Raichand doesn't have: a bride of a "Pure Lineage."

Meher Mehra is a struggling archival student who just wanted to graduate and support her family. But when she accidentally witnesses a forbidden ceremony in the basement of the Raichand palace, she is marked by the Crimson ink.

Now, she is no longer a witness-she is the sacrifice.

Advait doesn't believe in love, only in the power of the Vow. He is dangerous, possessive, and haunted by the very shadows he was born to lead. But as Meher is pulled into his world of dark rituals, silk-draped secrets, and midnight prayers, she realizes the deadliest part of the Crimson Vow isn't the ritual itself... it's the man holding the blade.
