The grand hall of the Rathore palace gleams under crystal chandeliers, their light catching the gold trim on ancient tapestries. Your family enters, the marble floor echoing with measured footsteps. At the far end, a carved throne waits, and beside it, Dev Rathore sits in silence—masked, still, his gaze already locked on you. The air thickens as you approach, his presence a magnetic pull. You take the seat beside him on the yuvraaj's throne, your practiced shy mask in place. His hand brushes yours, a possessive whisper. 'Finally, everyone sees what's mine,' he murmurs. What game does he play now?
