Craved by the Monster (Craving You #1)

Kartik Singhaniya was control wrapped in power. He was cold, commanding, and unshaken by defiance. In his world, lines were drawn in stone... and no woman dared cross them.

Until she did.

He came to choose a bride worthy of his name...soft, obedient and predictable.

Instead, he chose her.

Chahat Rathore - a mistake wrapped in beauty. A temptation he should have rejected.

But behind that veil stood a girl with fire in her eyes and rebellion in her blood-her curves soft yet dangerously distracting, her presence impossible to ignore. She wasn't delicate... she was disarming. The kind of woman who didn't ask for attention, yet commanded it effortlessly.

She played a game, pretended to be her elder sister and tried to make him walk away.

But monsters don't walk away.

They claim.

What begins as deception spirals into something far more dangerous...a marriage tangled in forbidden tension, stolen glances, and unspoken hunger neither of them is willing to admit.

Because she is his would-be bride's sister and that only makes it worse.

He watches her when he shouldn't.
Thinks of her when he mustn't.
Wants her in ways that break every rule he has ever lived by.

And when circumstances force them into a marriage neither expected...

The line between right and wrong shatters completely because this marriage was never about love.

It was a deal.

A condition - an heir.

She agrees for her sister. He agrees without knowing the whole truth.

And when that truth comes out...

It won't break him but unleash him.

Because Kartik Singhaniya doesn't accept betrayal.

He punishes it but the most dangerous part?

Even in his anger, even in his control...

He craves her.

Not gently or purely but in a way that consumes.

In a way that ruins.

In a way that turns forbidden into inevitable.

Some cravings aren't meant to be resisted...

They're meant to destroy you.
