He promised a dying man he would protect her. He never promised he wouldn't fall for her. Eshna had nothing. No family. No surname. No one to stand beside her. The only person who ever chose her was Kiyan Malhotra. Then he died. Now the world blames her for his death. Hunted by powerful people who want revenge, Eshna finds herself under the protection of the one man she fears the most. Avyukt Chauhan. Cold. Dangerous. Untouchable. To fulfill Kiyan's last wish, Avyukt marries Eshna. Not out of love. Not out of desire. Only because a promise must be kept. But promises are easier to make than emotions are to control. The more Avyukt protects her, the more possessive he becomes. The more Eshna tries to stay away, the closer he pulls her in. Soon, he is no longer protecting her from the world. He is protecting the world from what he is willing to do for her. Because Eshna was never supposed to become his weakness. She was supposed to be a promise. Instead, she became his obsession.
