"She was the bait in his game of revenge-until he forgot the rules and fell for his captive." Rivan Malhotra didn't believe in love. Only power, loyalty, and revenge. So when he marries Ishita Mehra-the innocent daughter of the man who ruined his family-it's all part of a calculated plan. Charm her. Claim her. Use her. And then bring her entire world crashing down. But Ishita isn't the weak, naive girl he expected. She's fire wrapped in silk, and once he has her, Rivan can't let go. Not when her touch calms the storm in him. Not when her tears taste like guilt he's never known. Not when her defiance awakens something darker-need. She was supposed to be his pawn. Now, she's the obsession that consumes him. And if revenge made her his... Desire will make her his forever. Even if it means burning everything to keep her.
