I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the door creak open. My heart skipped a beat. Abhi stepped inside, his presence commanding the space, and then closed the door softly behind him. "Stay strong, Kriti. Don’t let him see your fear," I silently whispered to myself, trying to steady my nerves. But as he approached, a sense of dread gripped me. He was getting closer, and I felt frozen, as though fear had completely paralyzed me. He sat across from me on the bed, his eyes locking with mine, and a mischievous smile tugged at the corners of his lips. The warmth of his gaze sent a chill down my spine. I wanted to speak, to ask him what was going through his mind, but the words wouldn’t come. I couldn’t move, couldn’t even breathe properly. Abhi’s deep voice broke the silence. "Why do you look so scared, my wife?" His words were both teasing and almost...provoking. He moved closer, his finger brushing gently against my cheek. It was a soft touch, yet it sent a shockwave through me. His hand slid down my neck, and my breath hitched involuntarily. "Are you scared of what this night holds?" he murmured, his finger tracing an electrifying path down my skin. I felt trapped in his gaze, in his touch, unable to react. His smile only deepened, as if he could sense the whirlwind of emotions inside me. "We don’t have to waste any more time," he continued, his tone intense. "Let’s make our wedding night count. There’s so much to be done." Before I could comprehend the weight of his words, he leaned in, bringing his face dangerously close to mine. I could no longer hold back. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kriti Agarwal never believed in fairy tale weddings, especially not one where the groom was the industrialist Abhi Malhotra. From the very beginning, they clashed like fire and ice. They couldn’t stand each other. He was arrogant, cold, and impossible to talk to, while she was stubborn, fiery, and not afraid to speak her mind. But when their families arrange their marriage and leave no room to refuse, they strike a deal.  They would stay married for one year, pretend to be the perfect couple in front of everyone, and then go their separate ways. No love, no dramas, just a quiet exit after twelve months. At least, that was the plan. But the longer they lived under the same roof, the more everything started to change. From intense fight to unexpected sparks, they found themselves caught in moments they never saw coming. The more they pushed each other away, the closer they seemed to get. With each passing day, their fake marriage began to feel a little too real. One year was supposed to be the end. But what if it was only the beginning? Could they resist the pull that threatened to destroy their agreement, or would the fire between them burn too fiercely to rewrite their story?
