The Bride He Never Chose

Anubhav Rathod was supposed to marry the perfect bride. Instead, fate placed a trembling girl in red beside him a girl who was never meant to be his. At thirty, Anubhav is powerful, feared, and impossible to challenge. His arranged marriage was meant to be a symbol of status, tradition, and family honor until a ruthless enemy turns his wedding into a scandal that shatters everything. Anushka Sharma, a twenty-year-old maid in the Rathod household, is forced into the mandap under the threat of losing the only person she has left her ill mother. By the time the truth is revealed, it is already too late. The sacred vows have been taken. The sindoor has been applied. And in the eyes of a traditional family, she is now Anubhav Rathod’s wife. Unwanted. Unaccepted. Unforgiven. Bound by rituals neither of them chose, Anubhav and Anushka are trapped in a marriage born from betrayal, anger, and silence. But in a house full of secrets, pain, and unspoken wounds… what if the bride he never chose becomes the only woman he can no longer live without?
