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 would I-" 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, appealing, heir to his family's 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.
When a family twist forces Manya and Aarav into a fake engagement, what begins as a performance quickly unravels into something dangerously real. Between barbed banter, stolen glances, and the kind of moments that feel too true to fake, their carefully drawn lines begin to blur, and both are forced to confront what's real, what's pretend, and whether love might just be the biggest risk either of them has ever taken.
