A vow without love

Some stories begin with love. This one begins with betrayal Aditya Singhania- once believed in permanence - in loyalty, in vows, in building a family brick by brick. Gentle by nature and unwavering in devotion, he was a man who loved deeply. Until the day everything collapsed. On the very day his daughter was born, he was handed two realities - the joy of becoming a father and the devastation of being betrayed. A life entered his world as another shattered it. He never decided whether that day was his greatest blessing or his most unforgivable wound. Something within him hardened. Warmth receded. Trust dissolved. Love became a word he refused to acknowledge. Now, Aditya Singhania is not merely influential - he is a force. Calculated. Feared. Unapologetically ruthless when crossed. The world may tremble at his presence, but only one soul softens him - his daughter, Aahana. He does not seek companionship. He does not desire affection. He does not believe in love. He needs stability for his child. Nothing more. And then there is **Misha Singh**. A cardiologist who restores fragile hearts while quietly guarding her own. Gentle, sincere, and resilient, she believes in first love and emotional permanence - yet marriage unsettles her. She carries a truth she refuses to hide. And every time she chooses honesty, she is chosen last. Their marriage will not begin with romance. It will be arranged. Practical. Necessary. A father seeking security for his daughter. A woman agreeing for reasons yet unrevealed. He is fire - controlled, destructive when provoked. She is water - patient, healing, quietly strong. He distrusts emotion. She believes it is everything. In a union born of obligation, the question is not whether love exists. The question is - can a man who buried his heart learn to feel again? And can a woman who believes in love survive a man who does not? Because sometimes love does not arrive gently. Sometimes, it must be earned.
