The room smelled faintly of antiseptic and warm tea. Gatha stirred, finding Siddharth still at her side, forehead resting on their entwined hands.
“You’re awake,” he whispered, guilt heavy in every word. “I keep thinking… if guilt were medicine, I’d have cured you twice by now.”

Avisha - an orphan, soft-spoken, and untouched by arrogance. Raised with simplicity, she dreamt not of fairy tales, but of becoming someone - someone strong enough to change her life on her own terms. Aarav - a name whispered with both respect and fear. Famous for his brilliant mind... and infamous for his ruthlessness. To him, innocence was weakness - and weakness had no place in his world. But fate had its own twisted script. One believed in love. The other believed in power. And yet, he married her... at gunpoint. What happens when a gentle soul is thrown into the fire of a man who never believed she could survive? Can innocence tame arrogance - or will it burn in its rage?
Since childhood, we were told the story of Rapunzel. A beautiful girl with long golden hair, locked in a tower by a wicked witch. A brave prince stumbles upon her, climbs her hair, and they fall in love. He rescues her. They escape. And, of course, they live happily ever after. That’s the version the world wanted us to believe.
