Saviour or Destroyer
Hatred ignites faster than love. But sometimes, both burn in the same fire. He was the fire she couldn't escape - the one who could either save her... or burn her alive. When Meher Malhotra, a 23-year-old ambitious journalist from Kolkata, lands in Delhi, she never expects her first big case to be a brutal murder. Nor does she expect to cross paths with Kabir Rathore - a man with piercing grey-black eyes, a dangerous reputation, and secrets darker than night. He is everything she hates: arrogant, intimidating, untouchable. She is everything he never wanted: stubborn, reckless, unafraid. They despise each other at first glance. Yet destiny keeps pulling them back - to the same case, the same shadows, the same fire. Every answer Meher uncovers ties back to Kabir. Every truth she reveals leaves her questioning: is he the villain... or the only man who can save her? As Meher digs deeper, she realizes the truth isn't written in black and white - it's soaked in scarlet. And in the midst of blood and betrayal, hate begins to blur into passion. But desire is dangerous, and secrets don't stay buried forever. In a city where every secret has a price, how much will she pay for the truth? And what if the man she should fear the most... is the only one her heart desires?
Meher Malhotra's heart was pounding as she stepped out into the cold Delhi night. The city was a far cry from the calm streets of Kolkata she'd left behind. But this was her chance - a dream she was chasing with everything she had. A chance to become a fearless journalist, to expose the truth no one dared to touch.
Tonight, that truth was a brutal murder.
The buzzing crowd outside the old bunglow was suffocating. Police vans, yellow tapes, reporters shouting for "exclusive bites."
The police cordon stretched in front of her, flashing blue and red lights painting the scene in eerie colors. Reporters jostled for space, shouting questions, snapping photos.
Amidst all the chaos, Meher Malhotra adjusted her dupatta, flashed her freshly laminated press card, and slipped inside. This was her first official assignment as a journalism intern. And it wasn't just any story - it was a murder.
Inside, silence screamed louder than the crowd outside.
