WHERE THERE IS HATE, THERE IS LOVE There's a thin line between Hate and Love. And both hate and love come from the heart. When we hate a person, hate them with all our hearts, and when we love a person love them with all our hearts. Both can stay side by side. When the thin line breaks between hate and love we don't realize it, we just start to drown in the ocean of love without realizing it. The same thing happens with Ivan and Jessica. They don't realize when they start to love each other when they despise each other from the deepest core of their heart. Ivan Pratap Sigh, he's 29 years old and CEO of Royal Fashion which he built himself. He has a very powerful aura around him. Everyone fears him. He's an angel for good people but a death bell for his enemies.  Jessica Walia is 24 years old. Just graduated in fashion design from a prestigious college in Delhi. She's sweet, noble, confident, sophisticated, and believes in everyone. But whoever tries to bully her that time she becomes bold and  never hesitates to beat the shit out of them.

I felt every last slice of their blades, every new tendon sewn into my muscles and nail hammered into my bones. I screamed. I begged. I begged for them to stop, for them to kill me, just ended the pain. --- I have a secret, I am a mermaid. I should live in the ocean, but my tail was cut and I only owned legs. After escaping to Asterion, I hid my identity. I thought I could finally live a peaceful life, until that day I met the famous bad boy, the future Alpha, Caspian. --- I felt a strange prickling on the back of my neck. I spun around just in time to see Caspian prowling towards me through the darkened wings, his blue eyes positively glowing. Sharp white teeth flashed as Caspian's lips unfurled into a lethal grin, "Hello Mate."
