Chapter 1 - Character Introductions

💠 Rhea Kapoor

Age: 22

Heritage: Half Indian 🇮🇳, Half American 🇺🇸

Lives in: London, UK 🇬🇧

Role: Mafia heiress — the girl wrapped in danger and luxury.

Appearance:

Rhea is striking — tall, sculpted features, almond eyes lined with smoky black, and dark brown hair that falls like liquid ink. Her skin has a warm undertone, glowing softly under city lights. Her every move feels calculated, graceful, powerful — like she owns the room even when she's silent.

Personality:

A storm behind calm eyes. She's the kind of girl who hides pain behind smirks and secrets behind silence. Ruthless when she must be, protective when she cares — and she doesn't care often. Her voice is low, measured, almost hypnotic.

Habits:

Twirls her ring when she's lying.

Lights cigarettes but rarely smokes them.

Drives alone at night to clear her head.

Secret:

She's the daughter of a feared crime lord, but she's secretly planning to take him down.

🌷 Ananya Sharma

Age: 19

Heritage: Half Korean 🇰🇷, Half Indian 🇮🇳

Lives in: London (student visa)

Role: The soft-hearted, bullied university girl — Rhea's contrast and undoing.

Appearance:

Ananya's beauty is unintentional — fair porcelain skin, soft hazel eyes with an almost shy sparkle, and chestnut-brown hair that curls naturally at the ends. Her fashion is modest, pastel sweaters, and oversized hoodies that swallow her frame.

Personality:

Quiet, observant, and kind to the point of self-harm. She bottles everything, letting her emotions leak only through her art. The world has been unkind to her — bullied, lonely — but she still sees beauty where others see pain.

Habits:

Draws whenever she's anxious.

Hums Korean songs softly when she's alone.

Apologizes too much.

Secret:

She once witnessed something she wasn't supposed to — something tied to Rhea's world — and doesn't yet know it.
