Veeresh Rathore and Poornima Rathore were cousins only by blood—but by heart, they were strangers… maybe even enemies.

From childhood to adulthood, they were like fire and ice.

Always fighting.

Never understanding.

Never bonding.

Both raised under the same prestigious Rathore name, yet living two very different versions of loneliness.

Veeresh was the son of his father’s second wife—a woman who died bringing him into the world. His father loved him deeply, but fate was cruel. When his father passed away, Veeresh was left at the mercy of a stepmother who never saw him as a son… only as a reminder of the woman she hated.

Poornima, on the other hand, grew up in a house full of people but devoid of love. Her parents kept her like an obligation, never a blessing. She learned to smile through wounds no one cared to heal.

They never had the love they deserved.

They never had the support they needed.

And they certainly never had each other.

As years passed, Veeresh built an empire from the ashes of his childhood—becoming a powerful, feared businessman. Poornima stayed back, working in her father’s company, hiding her pain behind professionalism and silence.

Their paths were destined to cross again.

Hatred was expected.

Coldness was certain.

But destiny had other plans.

Because sometimes…

The people who hurt us the most become the ones who heal us.

And sometimes…

Love blooms exactly where hatred once lived.

This is a story of two broken souls, tangled by family, separated by pain, and slowly drawn together by a fate neither of them can escape.

Will they destroy each other?

Or will they finally find the love they were denied all their lives… in each other?
