I Married My Enemy to Save My Brother
Chapter 1: The Deal With The Devil
"Marry me… or your brother goes to jail."
The courtroom corridor suddenly felt too small.
My hands went cold.
In front of me stood the man I hated most.
Reyansh Kapoor.
Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable.
The same man who destroyed my father's company.
The same man who bought our house after we went bankrupt.
The same man who never once looked at me… without calculation in his eyes.
And now—
He was offering marriage.
"This is blackmail," I whispered.
He stepped closer.
"This is protection."
"My brother is innocent!"
"Then prove it," he said calmly. "From inside my house."
I stared at him.
"You want revenge," I said.
He smiled faintly.
"If I wanted revenge, your brother would already be behind bars."
Silence.
The police were waiting inside the courtroom.
One signature.
That's all it would take to ruin my family forever.
"What's the condition?" I asked.
"One year marriage," he replied. "You live in my house. You follow my rules."
"And after one year?"
"We walk away like strangers."
No love.
No promises.
Just survival.
I hated him.
But I loved my brother more.
"Fine," I said, my voice shaking. "I'll marry you."
The Wedding No One Expected
The media exploded the next morning.
"Business Rivals Turn Husband and Wife!"
People called it strategy.
Some called it scandal.
Only I knew the truth.
This wasn't romance.
This was a cage.
Kapoor Mansion – First Night
The mansion doors closed behind me.
It felt like entering enemy territory.
Reyansh removed his coat calmly.
"Relax," he said. "I don't touch things that aren't mine."
Anger burned inside me.
"I am not your property."
He stepped closer.
"Not yet."
My heart skipped.
"What does that mean?"
He looked into my eyes — intense, unreadable.
"It means if anyone tries to hurt you now… they answer to me."
I froze.
Was this protection?
Or possession?
The Twist
That night, I overheard something that changed everything.
Two guards whispering:
"Boss didn't marry her for revenge."
"Then why?"
"Because the real enemy is coming back… and she's the only way to protect her."
My blood ran cold.
Protect me?
From who?
Cliffhanger 🔥
The next morning, a black envelope arrived at the mansion.
Inside was a photo.
My brother.
Tied to a chair.
And a message written in red ink:
"You married the wrong devil."
My hands trembled.
Reyansh entered the room.
His face darkened when he saw the photo.
"Stay behind me," he ordered.
"For how long?" I asked.
His jaw tightened.
"For as long as you're my wife."
And for the first time…
I didn't know if I was more afraid of the enemy outside—
Or the man I just married.
