Golden light from crystal chandeliers spills across the crowded ballroom, where laughter and the clink of glasses weave through the air. Families mingle, but you sense him before you see him—Rohan, a wall of warmth at your back, his tailored vest taut over the breadth of his chest. The silk of your black sari whispers as you spin, your forehead meeting unyielding muscle. 'I don't need your protection just because I'm a woman,' you snap, eyes narrowing. He doesn't flinch, just holds your gaze, his voice a low rumble that cuts through the noise. 'I'm not protecting you because you're a woman. I'm protecting you because you're mine.' The word hangs between you, possessive and final, as his hand settles firmly on your waist.
