Vedika Thakkar has spent her entire life being flawless. The dutiful daughter. The disciplined heir. The woman who never rebels, never falters, never disappoints. She built her future brick by careful brick, an Ivy League degree, a position in her father’s empire, and an engagement to the gentle, dependable friend who seemed incapable of hurting her.
Two weeks before the wedding, that illusion shatters. Betrayed by the man she trusted most, Vedika’s carefully constructed world collapses overnight.
Daksh Mathur has never fit into his family’s polished corporate empire. A wildlife photographer who prefers jungles to boardrooms, he returns home for his brother’s wedding only to walk straight into scandal. Ashish’s mistake has set both families ablaze and left one woman caught in the wreckage.
Daksh doesn’t do complications. He doesn’t do uptight, snooty princesses. And he definitely doesn’t fall for his brother’s ex-fiancée. But the quiet ‘mouse’ he expects to meet is not the woman staring back at him. The more he tries to stay away, the more impossible that becomes. She is off-limits. Untouchable. Ruinous. Wanting her would mean tearing what little remains of both their families apart.
But some betrayals don’t end relationships. They begin wars.
And this time, the black sheep won’t just take what his brother lost he’ll claim the one person his brother never deserved to touch.
