Malavika Devraj (17)

FMC • Rajkumari of Ishvara

❝𝑳𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒅𝒐𝒎 𝒆𝒏𝒗𝒚 𝒎𝒚 𝒄𝒓𝒐𝒘𝒏. 𝑰 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒃𝒖𝒓𝒏 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒈𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒐 𝒂𝒔𝒉 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒆𝒆𝒍 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒔 𝒐𝒏 𝒎𝒚 𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒏.❞

Malavika Devraj is grace wrapped in power, a princess raised within marble walls and ancient traditions, revered for her beauty, her status, and the crown she was born to inherit. But beneath the silk sarees, delicate jewelry, and ceremonial poojas lies a will of steel—one that refuses to bow, refuses to break.

She wasn't raised to be protected.
She was raised to rule.

Disciplined, observant, and quietly defiant, Malavika walks the line between duty and desire, between tradition and change. She performs her morning pooja for ancestors and rides her white horse across palace gardens. But when she practices archery or studies war strategy in the royal library, it becomes clear—she has never mistaken obedience for strength.

In a world where everyone watches her, judges her, and envies her, Malavika holds herself with unshakable poise—until it's challenged.
Until a silent shadow steps into her life, and with a single glance, unravels the control she never knew she relied on.

Aaryavardhan 'Aaryan' Ranawat (22)

MMC • Royal Bodyguard

Aaryavardhan Ranawat is silence, discipline, and danger carved into one man—a royal bodyguard bound by loyalty, trained to protect without question and exist without being seen.

He doesn't speak unless necessary. He doesn't feel more than he should.
And he never crosses the line.

Cold, controlled, and ruthlessly efficient, Aaryan earned his place through strength, precision, and unwavering devotion to the royal family of Ishvara. He moves in the shadows of marble corridors, through misty palace gardens and golden-lighted halls, where every whisper of threat reaches him before it reaches anyone else.

But then there is her.
The princess he is sworn to protect. The one person he should never look at twice.

And yet—he does.
Because the closer he stands behind her—tracking the soft chime of her payal, correcting her posture during archery practice, or guiding her through dark corridors—the harder it becomes to remember he was never meant to stand beside her.

Malavika Devraj & Aaryavardhan Ranawat

Princess • Bodyguard • Forbidden

She was born to command.
He was trained to obey.

What begins as protection becomes tension.
What begins as duty becomes something far more dangerous.

In a kingdom of gilded halls and whispered secrets, Anvika and Advait are a mistake waiting to happen.

He is her shield.
She is his impossible duty.

Because he was sworn to protect her—
not to want her.
And she was never meant to need anyone—
least of all him.

Fiercely protective of his sister and unwavering in his loyalty to the kingdom, Reyansh believes in order, hierarchy, and control. To him, the throne is not a privilege—it is duty.
