Author's Note: Read This Before You Dive In!

Hey, Bellezze! It's your author here, and I'm super excited to share my first story with you!

I'm not a voracious reader, but I've devoured a few romance novels here and there. Now, it's my turn to spin a tale that'll make your heart skip a beat (or two, or three...)!

Before we begin, let's get some housekeeping out of the way:

1. No hate comments, please! Chotu sa Dil hai Mera, tut jaayega bichara. (My heart is fragile, and I don't want it to shatter into a million pieces)

2. Constructive criticism is welcome! If you have suggestions or ideas, share them with me on Instagram (@AuthorSRD or @author_srd)

3. Grammar Police, please forgive me! English and Hindi aren't my first languages, so I might make some boo-boos. If you spot any mistakes, kindly let me know in the comments.

4. This story is mine, and I'm proud of it! I created the cover and everything you'll read is from my imagination (and wild dreams).

5. Picture credits: I borrowed images from Pinterest, so kudos to the original creators!

6. Voting is caring! If you enjoy the chapters, please vote! It's a great way to support your favorite author (me!).

7. Saturday night updates: Mark your calendars! New chapters will drop every Saturday night.

8. Follow me for updates and spoilers! Find me on Wattpad and Instagram (@AuthorSRD or @author_srd)

Disclaimer: This story contains some steamy scenes, so if you're sensitive or uncomfortable, please don't read it. Also, no cheating tropes here!

That's it! Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the story!

Dhanyavad!

Aap logo ka aaj ka din mangalmaya ho. (May your day be filled with joy, love and good vibes!) Swaha.

If you're a student, may you ace all your exams with 90+ percent! Swaha.

And may all your enemies be blessed with wisdom and kindness!

Swaha. Swaha. Swaha.

P.S. If you're still reading this, you're a rockstar! As a reward, I'll give you a virtual hug and a cookie.

Now, go forth and read the story! But don't say I didn't warn you...this story is SPICY, so grab some ice cubes and a fire extinguisher, just in case!
