In the sprawling halls of a grand Haveli, tradition and hierarchy reign supreme. Hayat, a fiercely independent and rebellious young woman, has spent her entire life in the shadows of this world. Living with her mother, who works for the family that owns the Haveli, Hayat has always felt the weight of her place in society but refuses to let it define her. She craves freedom and autonomy, unwilling to bow to anyone, especially not Haider—the Haveli's eldest son.

Haider is everything Hayat despises—arrogant, dominant, and accustomed to getting his way. As the heir to his family's legacy, he’s been raised to lead with an iron fist, but beneath his hardened exterior, he carries the weight of his responsibilities and expectations. His short temper and controlling nature have kept everyone at a distance, but Hayat’s defiance challenges him in ways no one else dares.

From their first encounter, the sparks between them are undeniable, but they are the kind that threaten to burn everything to the ground. In a world where both are bound by duty and circumstance, their mutual hatred becomes a battle of wills—one that neither is willing to lose. Yet as the fire between them intensifies, so does the undeniable pull toward each other. Can two hearts forged in conflict find peace, or will their fire consume them both?
