About this audiobook
Meher was sold into a contract… but refused to be owned.
Aaryan married her for power… but couldn't control what she made him feel.
When art curator Meher Malhotra is forced into a secret marriage with billionaire tycoon Aaryan Khanna, she thinks she’s just collateral payment for her father’s mistakes. But what begins as a cold transaction soon turns into a slow-burning war of wills, secrets, and forbidden desires.
He is an expert in playing mind games. And She plays to survive.
But when veils begin to slip, and power begins to shift…
The one rule they both swore by—no emotions—might just be the first to shatter.
What happens when the puppet cuts her strings?
And the puppeteer… bleeds?
Welcome to a love story disguised as a battlefield.
And neither side is ready to surrender.
