Hate Me, But Love Me
Prologue
She moved to Mumbai after her father’s job transfer.
A new city, unfamiliar and overwhelming.
A new college, new faces, new fears.
She promised herself she would stay strong.
Then she met Advait Rathore.
The boy everyone feared but no one understood.
Cold eyes, powerful name, untouchable presence.
He ruled the college like it belonged to him.
He hated her defiance.
She hated his arrogance.
Yet neither could ignore the other.
Every glance became a battle.
Every silence hid something deeper.
One day, everything changed.
Something broke between them.
Something neither of them could fix.
He walked away.
She didn’t stop him.
But she stayed in Mumbai.
Not for the city.
Not for the memories.
For him.
Because leaving him was easy.
Forgetting him was impossible.
And she was no longer alone.
A love born in hate, destined in pain.
