Anaya Mehra (Protagonist, "The Villainess")
Daughter of the Prime Minister of the Rajya Sabha royal parliament, Anaya is elegant, calculating, and raised as a crown princess in all but name. She was groomed from childhood to be the future Maharani. Possessive and volatile, she doesn't believe in forgiveness—only in recompense. After being cast aside, she refuses to fade into the shadows. Her beauty is matched only by her dangerous wit. She's deeply jealous, emotionally erratic, and unapologetically flawed, yet her vulnerability makes her compelling. She is the perfect modern villainess—sharp heels, sharper tongue, and a heart that's fractured but still beats.
Major Aryan Rathore (Male Lead)
An elite officer in the Royal Defence Corps and the scion of a decorated military family, Aryan is known for his stoic silence, lethal precision, and commanding aura. Unlike the polished charm of his royal friend Veer, Aryan is all jagged steel—rigid, cold, and unnervingly calm. But beneath the stone exterior lies a man haunted by choices, bound by honor, and far more emotionally complex than he lets on. When Anaya targets him as a stand-in for her revenge, he resists—and then unravels. What begins as a power play soon becomes his own descent into desire, defiance, and ultimately... possession.
