The Secret Bride
A sacrificial bride. A billionaire bound by a dark prophecy. And a secret marriage that changes all the rules.
Armaan Khanna is the ruthless, high-flying CEO of New Gen Corp. Controlled by logic and business strategies, his structured world is completely upended by his family’s deep-rooted superstitions. When an ancient astrological prophecy declares that his first wife is destined to meet an early grave, a cruel plan is set in motion. To protect the woman he was supposed to marry, Armaan agrees to a secret, temporary arrangement—a one-year sacrificial marriage to a complete stranger who will act as his spiritual lightning rod.
Viya Mehra is an orphan who has spent her life surviving under the toxic roof of her relatives. Constantly treated as a burden, she has learned to live in the shadows while nursing her dreams of becoming an engineer. When she lands a life-changing interview, she thinks her luck is finally turning. Instead, she finds herself trapped in a high-stakes web of manipulation, forced into a marriage with a powerful billionaire. She believes she is finally getting a family, completely unaware that she has been chosen because her life is considered disposable.
From a breathless encounter to the sacred fire of the mandap, the tension between Armaan and Viya is explosive. Armaan intends to keep his distance, treating Viya as a temporary contract to be cast aside after a year. But as her innocence and resilience begin to crack his armor, the lines between a fake marriage and real desire begin to blur.
When the past catches up and the dark truth behind their vows threatens to spill, Armaan realizes he is no longer fighting to break a curse—he is fighting to keep the wife he was never supposed to love.
Can a marriage born out of deception survive the ultimate truth, or will the prophecy claim its victim before they can find their happily ever after?
