«Story description»

In the world of power, betrayal, and unspoken sins, Pratishtha Singhania walks the fine line between light and darkness. To the world, she is a delicate storm—beautiful, untouchable, a woman of grace wrapped in silk and secrets. But beneath the fragile skin lies something far more dangerous. A monster. A devil. Or perhaps, a girl who was never given a choice.

Haunted by a past she barely remembers and a mind that doesn’t belong solely to her, Pratishtha’s carefully built life begins to fracture. The shadows in her head whisper, urging her to embrace the darkness she has long fought against. And when the triggers pull, the girl with a soft smile becomes something unrecognizable—a nightmare in human form.

Then there’s Abhimaan Singh Rajvansh—a man of power, a man of sins, and the only one who has ever seen the real her. He has chased her all his life, craved her like a sickness. But even he doesn't realize that Pratishtha is not just a woman to be loved; she is a force to be feared.

In a world where love is laced with obsession and trust is a dangerous illusion, Pratishtha and Abhimaan are bound by something darker than fate. As she fights to keep her demons at bay, he is ready to pull her into the abyss with him.

But the question remains—

Is she the prey, or was she always the predator?

A tale of twisted love, dangerous desires, and a woman who was never meant

to be saved.

♡♡ Characters aesthetics♡♡

ABHIMAAN SINGH RAJVANSH (30)

Abhimaan Singh Rajvansh is a formidable presence, a man born into royalty with a ruthless edge that reflects his dual life as both a king and a mafia lord. At 30, he is cold, calculating, and deeply strategic, mastering control over both his vast business empire and the darker realms he operates in. His intimidating aura hides a deeply emotional and obsessive nature, especially when it comes to Pratishtha, the one person who has pierced through his armor. Scarred by the traumatic murder of his mother and burdened by his twisted sense of justice, Abhimaan wields power with precision, crossing moral lines to protect those he loves. Despite his ruthlessness, he harbors a deep vulnerability in his obsession with Pratishtha, which often clouds his judgment and fuels his darkest impulses. He is both protector and destroyer, a man whose love for Pratishtha drives him to terrifying extremes.

MELINOË

Melinoë is an enigma, a shadowy figure who thrives in the unseen spaces between life and death. Often whispered about but never fully understood, she is known as the Goddess of Madness and Nightmares. She moves like a phantom, her motives obscure and her presence chilling. Her mere name is enough to send shivers through those who know of her legend, for she is the harbinger of chaos, a manipulator who bends the minds of others to her will. Appearing like a specter, she walks a path that no one dares to follow, embodying the darkest nightmares of those who encounter her. Calm and calculating, Melinoë is a figure of both fascination and terror, a symbol of the unknown that preys on the deepest fears of the soul. But behind her composed, ethereal exterior lies a storm of destruction waiting to be unleashed, leaving no one safe in her wake.
