Her past was a terrible one, filled with betrayal and love. One she often tries to drown with new friends and boyfriends she could never love. One she tries to forget, but can't seem to let go of. She soon realized that all of her new companions and beaus were repetitive characters of her past. The similarities were intoxicating. They pushed her past her breaking point.
Arazale is a completely different person in the dystopian Indian Empire. She is sophisticated, smart, friendly, lively, and beautiful. She's the CEO of a well-known and wealthy fashion company. She has many different flavors of friends and occasionally has a fling. Until she talks to an exotic stranger. That later kidnaps her.

He shrugged, "I skipped that page." "Why?" I breathed out as he took another step closer, standing so close that I could see his eyelashes under the dim light. "I need you to answer this." he replied, looking into my eyes. I felt my breath hitch, as I felt his eyes leave mine and travel below, stopping at my lips.
