Roop is a girl trapped in a cycle of violence and abuse. Sold as a slave at a very young age to a zamindar, she has spent most of her life longing for a single moment of freedom.

At eighteen, she manages to find work as a servant in noble households, believing that perhaps life will finally become easier. But it never does.

Will Vatsal forget her and accept the princess chosen for him? Or will Roo
