Chapter 7: Cracks in the Armor

The days bled into each other like watercolors running together in a storm—faded, indistinct, and full of tension. Raghav's presence loomed over Aarya like a dark cloud, unyielding and suffocating, while Vikram's light-hearted attempts to make her feel seen and heard were only temporary distractions. The Malhotra estate, grand and imposing, felt more like a prison with every passing hour.

    The bride fate chose

    “This marriage is for my son. Not for love. Never for love.” That’s all Rudra Singh Rathore said on the night he married Aadhya Verma—a girl chosen not by his heart, but by fate and family. At 30, Rudra is a cold, emotionally shut-off business tycoon and a single father to a two-and-a-half-year-old boy, Ivaan—his entire world. After being betrayed by his wife, who abandoned them both, Rudra buried his emotions behind power and silence. Love is weakness. Trust is dead. All he wants is to raise his son in peace. But his traditional and loving joint family—especially his sharp-tongued Dadi and soft-hearted mother—has other plans. They believe Ivaan deserves more. He deserves a mother. So they find Aadhya Verma. Aadhya, 24, is a sweet-natured child psychologist with a spine of steel and a heart that still believes in healing. She agrees to the arranged marriage to fulfill her dying grandmother’s final wish, stepping into a palace full of strangers, a husband who promises nothing, and a child in desperate need of affection. “You will be my son’s mother. Never my wife.” Rudra's rules were clear. But fate doesn’t follow rules. From silent meals and awkward glances to midnight feedings and emotional meltdowns, Aadhya begins to weave herself into the very fabric of Rudra’s closed-off world. She takes a life-changing decision—to induce lactation and breastfeed the fragile Ivaan, becoming the mother he never had. And slowly, her warmth begins to melt Rudra’s icy resolve. But falling in love with a man who swore never to love again? That wasn’t part of the deal. As family drama brews, buried scars reopen, and her overprotective brother demands answers, Aadhya must face the truth: Was she truly just the bride fate chose—or the one Rudra needed all along?

    Sinful ties

    She was meant to be safe. He made her his obsession. Jahnavi Rathore has spent her life in a golden cage, protected by her ruthless mafia family. But she has always stayed out of the shadows, destined for a safe, respectable marriage that will finally give her freedom from the bloodstained world her brother controls. Until the night of her engagement. That’s when Aarav Shekhawat—the most feared mafia king in India—comes crashing into her life. Her brother’s betrayal cost Aarav millions, and instead of killing him… Aarav takes something far more precious. He takes her. > "Your brother stole from me, Jahnavi. Now, I’m stealing you." Jahnavi becomes his prisoner, his collateral, his new obsession. She fights him. He enjoys the struggle. She tries to escape. He catches her every time. She hates him. But he won’t let her go. The more she resists, the deeper Aarav’s obsession grows. Until keeping her isn't enough. He wants to own her. Break her. Marry her. > "You’re mine now, princess. The sooner you accept it, the easier it’ll be." But when a war ignites between them—one fueled by passion, vengeance, and an attraction she can’t deny—Jahnavi is faced with the most dangerous question of all. Does she want to run… or surrender to the monster who holds her soul?

    Twisted lesson

    At 22, Avni Sharma has spent her whole life playing by the rules—keeping her head down, excelling in academics, and staying away from trouble. But that all changes the moment she crosses paths with Professor Kiaan Shekhawat—a man who commands fear, respect, and absolute authority. Cold. Calculated. Untouchable. He’s known for his ruthless discipline, his sharp mind, and the fact that no one, absolutely no one, dares to challenge him. Until her. A single accusation—a cheating scandal she didn’t commit—threatens to destroy everything she’s worked for. Expulsion is inevitable, her reputation ruined. But instead of throwing her out, Kiaan offers her a deal. “Work for me. For six months. Follow my rules, no questions asked. In exchange, you graduate.” It sounds simple. But the moment Avni steps into his world, she realizes the real danger isn’t losing her degree—it’s losing herself. Because Professor Shekhawat isn’t just strict. He’s possessive. Demanding. A man used to controlling everything around him, including her. And when she starts uncovering the secrets he’s been hiding—the obsession, the darkness, the past he can’t erase—Avni realizes one terrifying truth. She was never meant to walk away. She was meant to be his.

    The Reign in shadows

    In a city ravaged by corruption, Leila, a fierce and determined leader, is thrust into a dangerous battle for control, justice, and survival. Once under the shadow of the oppressive Chimera faction, she rises to take on the mantle of rebellion, only to find herself entangled in a world of betrayal, shifting alliances, and internal conflict. Forced into a marriage designed to cement a political alliance, Leila must navigate the brutal world of factions, the weight of her choices, and the pressure of her destiny. As she leads the charge against the factions that control the city, Leila faces enemies both within and outside her ranks. Marco, a former ally turned potential love interest, grapples with his own quest for redemption and loyalties, torn between his past and the future Leila seeks to build. Meanwhile, a mysterious and deadly adversary known as The Serpent manipulates the city's unrest, threatening to destroy everything they’ve worked for. Leila’s journey is fraught with dangerous decisions, alliances that may be her undoing, and a growing tension between her ideals and the brutal reality of war. Amidst the chaos of a brewing revolution, Leila uncovers hidden powers, faces down betrayal from unexpected places, and learns that sometimes, the road to freedom demands an unbearable sacrifice. The war for control of the city reaches its climax as Leila and her companions prepare for the final confrontation with The Serpent and the forces that have pulled the strings from the shadows. With everything on the line, the future of the city rests in her hands, but victory will come at a cost that no one is truly prepared for. The story is a gripping tale of power, redemption, love, and rebellion, exploring themes of trust, leadership, and the complexities of doing what is right in a world that demands sacrifice. Leila must not only fight for her life but also for a vision of a better world—a vision she may not be able to see fulfilled without compromising everything she believes in. #DarkFiction #BetrayalAndPower #ChasingRevenge #CharacterDrivenPlot #FateAndChoices #ForcedMarriage #TheSerpentsWeb #SurvivalOfTheFittest #CityUnderSiege #RomanticSuspense #MysteryUnfolds #PlotTwists #PowerStruggles #BrokenAlliances #RedemptionOrDestruction #UndergroundWars #EmotionalTurmoil #ThrillingConfrontations #TangledFates
