Never Say Never
[#2 ~ The Mehra Cousins] "I'm bored," he complained. "Someone find me a wife." "You're asking for a wife, not a toy," she replied, frowning at him. "Besides, what kind of foolish woman would agree to marry you?" "Excuse me!" he exclaimed, clearly offended. "Women are dying to marry me!" She rolled her eyes. "You wish," she said with a sarcastic smile. He smirked. "You're just jealous." "What in the-" She stopped herself from cursing, remembering they were in the office. "Why would I be jealous?" "Because you love me," he said, nodding as if it were a fact. "You're delusional." "And you are completely, utterly, and hopelessly in love with me," he said, grinning. "Why don't you just marry me and save yourself from the misery of watching me marry someone else?" "Even if you were the last person on this planet, I would never marry you," she snapped. He smirked. "Never say never." ❋ Manya Raheja has no time for nonsense—especially not the kind that wears tailored suits and a cocky smile. As a sharp-tongued marketing strategist with a reputation for excellence, she's worked too hard to let anyone—especially Aarav Mehra—get under her skin. Aarav Mehra, the charming, irreverent heir to a luxury hospitality empire, has never met a woman who challenges him quite like Manya. She's infuriating, brilliant, and absolutely immune to his charm—making her the most interesting part of his day. But when a high-stakes resort launch forces them to co-lead a campaign that could make or break both their careers, sparks fly—some born of friction, others of something far more dangerous. Between pitch meetings, heated arguments, and a growing tension they can't ignore, Manya and Aarav must navigate professional ambitions, personal grudges, and the inconvenient truth that the line between love and hate is thinner than either of them expected.
