She was the granddaughter of a servant from his household. And he fell for her—at first sight—on a Diwali evening, in the middle of a crowded market glowing with lights. She is just a girl. A girl who wonders, questions, and doubts herself. But to him, she is a celestial grace—something rare and divine, like stars scattered across the night sky. A beauty that feels unreal, like an angel disguised as a human. She is difficult to love, people say. So most choose not to. Yet the way he loves her—deeply, endlessly, in every possible way—makes her believe that maybe she was never too hard to love… just not loved right. She neither likes him nor hates him. But he lives his life only to make her feel loved. She gives up when jealousy creeps in. He claims her in a way that even in his absence, the world still speaks their names together. She teases him with Sanskrit endearments. So he creates one for her—despite not knowing Sanskrit at all. They call him a stone. But for her, he is the softest soul—someone who only wears the mask of a demon because the world forced him to. She overthinks. He over-explains. He loves her—and she loves hearing him say it every single day. He is easy to make jealous. And she enjoys doing it—again and again. “Suniye, Prannath,” she calls, teasing him. “Sunaiye, Prandharini,” he replies, gifting her a name he created just for her. “Aapke bina jee nahi paayenge hum,” she whispers, eyes locked with his. “Hume toh aapko apni nazaron ke saamne dekhe bina… marna bhi manzoor nahi,” he says, pressing a kiss to her forehead. “She is just a maid…” she tries to explain. “And I’m just jealous,” he admits. “Main galat hoon par… main kiski hoon?” she asks innocently. “Meri,” he answers without hesitation. “Haan toh, galti bhi aapki hui na,” she smiles—leaving him unsure whether to laugh or be angry. This is not just a love story. It is chaos and calm, fire and faith, possession and protection. A story where he fell first— but she fell harder. ~Tropes~ Chaotic Couple Sunshine × Grumpy He Fell First and Harder Love at First Sight Arranged × Forced Marriage Innocent FMC Obsessed MMC
