Madly Loving You
He was her first love. Her first everything. Her last mistake. Back in high school, Rivan was the boy who teased her, tormented her, then vanished without a trace. But he never stopped watching. Never stopped waiting. And never stopped desiring. She waited for him - patiently, foolishly, believing he would return for her. She never saw the truth: He never left. Now, eight years later, she's with someone else. Someone who doesn't see her the way he does. Someone who can't have her the way he does. Rivan can't stand it. He can't let her go. And this time, no amount of distance, no new relationship, no well-meaning fianc will stop him. He'll tear apart her world. **He will make her remember who she truly belongs to. He will make her see the truth that was always there: She was never meant to love anyone else. He was her first. And he will be her last.** "He'll break her heart, but it will be his hands that put it back together." "She was always his... and she'll never escape again." "No one else could ever take her place. He won't let them." "She thought she moved on. He'll make her regret that."
Rivan Dhruv hadn't seen Asha in eight years. But she was still his.
The years had passed, the world had changed, and he had climbed to the top of his empire. His father's real estate company was now his, and the name Dhruv was feared and respected in every boardroom. But none of that mattered. None of it compared to what he wanted most.Her.
The photo on his phone burned into his eyes, sending a jolt of fury through his chest. She stood there, smiling with another man-her man-her arm resting casually on his. Asha, his Asha, looking so different. A stranger, with the light in her eyes dimmed.He doesn't deserve her.Rivan's fingers clenched tightly around the phone, almost shattering it under the pressure. His teeth ground together, and a dark, bubbling rage surged inside him. Asha had always been his. She'd belonged to him from the moment they met. And yet, here she was-so casually attached to someone else.
The rage inside him twisted, becoming something more dangerous. It wasn't just jealousy anymore. It was a thirst. A need.How dare he touch her like that?
He could feel the blood rush to his head as his thoughts darkened, replaying every memory of their time together in high school. The teasing. The laughter. Her shy glances. Her lips. Her smile. Her warmth. He had pushed her away, made excuses, rejected her love when it was offered. He hadn't been ready then, not for her.Not for this.
But now? Now, he was ready.
What made his blood boil, though, was not just the fact that another man stood in her life. No. What enraged him more than anything was that she had given herself to him-taken by him. She was no longer that innocent girl he once protected, the girl who waited for him. She had belonged to another man now.She's no longer untouched. Not his anymore. He took her innocence. The one thing I always wanted to be the first to give her.
