They were high school rivals who couldn't stand each other.
Years later, fate throws them back together-not in a classroom, but at a crime scene.
IPS officer Veer Ahlawat is still infuriatingly composed. Still impossible to read. The kind of man who walks into chaos like he already knows how it ends.

Old rivalry resurfaces.
Unfinished tension lingers.
And pieces of a past Myra thought long buried begin quietly finding their way back.
Because some things don't stay in the past--not secrets, not memories and definitely not the people you swore you'd never see again.
