Loved by the Gang Leader

Prologue

Pune:

A girl, around 20 years old, was shown working diligently. She was creating craft pieces using wooden sticks, seated on the floor of her small, single-bedroom house, or rather, a chawl. She worked with impressive efficiency, producing beautiful pieces that looked almost too perfect to be handmade.

In just two hours, she made up to 20 small and large craft items suitable for both adults and children or decorative purposes.

She balanced her studies with working at a bookstore, where the owner allowed her to sell her crafts in a corner of the shop. As a result, she had a small table in the shop where her craft pieces were displayed for sale.

Living alone, she found comfort in the kindness of the bookstore owner, who ensured she never felt lonely. The shop was located in a mall, providing her with a bit of connection to the outside world.

She was content in her bubble, unwilling to let anyone cross its boundaries. Her fear of forming relationships stemmed from past experiences. Though Priya was close to her, she remained unaware of the girl's painful history.

While having someone to trust is important, she was not ready to place blind trust in anyone. Her painful past created a barrier that made it difficult for her to trust others completely.

On the Other side of the city:-

Thick forest trees surrounded the mansion, which was situated on the outskirts of the city for safety reasons. The large jungle area around it was also owned by "The Black Tigers," though this was unknown to most, as the mansion was officially recognized as the property of "Shayan Rathod," the renowned business tycoon.

Though Shayan owned the mansion, it was a gift from Rishi, RV, and Karan, given to him two years ago when he decided to step into the public eye as a businessman. Four years prior, Shayan had started a small company with a loan from Rishi. Within 11 months, he repaid the loan with double interest, demonstrating his commitment and integrity.

Their trust in each other was absolute, a bond that would be crucial in winning the hearts of someone who would come to rule their hearts in ways they had not yet anticipated.
