A Dark Billionaire Romance
Welcome to Scintilla Universe
Series Prelude (A Dark Billionaire Romance)
Aayansh Ahluwalia isn’t just a billionaire tycoon—he’s the nightmare whispered about behind closed doors. The world knows Scintilla Corporations as a global powerhouse, a gleaming symbol of success. But beneath the surface, in the shadows no one dares to look, Aayansh rules something far more terrifying.
An empire built on fear. On silence. On blood.
He commands the kind of loyalty that comes from terror, not trust. He doesn’t blink when a life needs to be taken. He doesn’t hesitate when lines must be crossed. Ruthless. Untouchable. A man with no conscience, only control. They call him the devil—and they’re not wrong.
His world is forged in darkness. His presence, a force that devours everything in its path. No hope, no mercy. Just the cold, consuming void he carries within him. His soul? Long since buried beneath the empire he built and the sins he never paid for.
And then—
She appeared.
A flicker of light in a world that had never known warmth. One look, and the chaos inside him paused, held captive by something… impossible.
Tisha Chopra.
He hadn’t searched for her. Hadn’t needed her. But the moment he saw her, something unspoken snapped into place. She was life, laughter, sunlight—and she didn’t belong anywhere near a man like him.
Which is exactly why he wanted her.
She should’ve been untouched by darkness. Protected. Spared. But instead, he marked her. Chased her. Claimed her. Not to be saved—but to be ruined. Slowly. Deeply. Irrevocably.
He would drag her into the abyss, wrap her light in chains, and make her kneel beside him on the devil’s throne. Not his redemption—but his queen. Not an escape—but a prisoner to his love, his madness, his hunger.
What follows is a story soaked in obsession and seduction, where control tastes sweeter than freedom, and love doesn’t heal—it destroys.
Scintilla isn’t just the name of Aayansh’s empire.
It’s the pulse of this saga.
A place where power reigns, innocence dies,
And love demands everything—including your soul.

Read the Snippet
Time should have given me a heads-up, a little hint of what was coming.
This wasn’t fair. Fate could have whispered a warning, maybe then I wouldn’t have worn this innocent white dress, unprepared for the unexpected tornado that had hit me from everywhere. It was truly a tornado because it had swept me off my feet and I felt as if I was dangling in the air, my inner feelings being pushed from here to there, creating chaos inside me.
I had come to the stables to find solace among the horses, seeking their gentle companionship. Little did I know, fate had a different plan, a twist I never imagined.
I felt his fingers dig into my skin as he pulled me to him as if I wasn’t close enough. The touch didn’t repulse me, or my instincts would have taken over and I would have kneed him. I would have shown some discomfort but all I did was let him kiss me.
My body liked his touch. Traitor!
I leaned into him, surrendering to the moment. He wrapped his other hand around my waist and tugged me even closer as his lips danced with mine, nibbling, sucking, tantalizing me with his captivating taste.
How could his taste be so intoxicating? With every kiss, I descended into a dark abyss, feeling as if there was no way back. The outrageous part? I didn’t want to return. How could I have missed this so much?
Kissing someone could be highly addictive, especially when it felt like you were the only one for them. Being kissed by this masked man showed me how much I missed this in my life—the intimacy, the closeness, those blissful moments of holding hands and being in someone’s arms, hearing their heartbeats while experiencing absolute nirvana.
Why didn’t I smell a hint of mint in his breath? It meant he didn’t smoke. Smokers repulsed me, and I wished he were a smoker; hating him would then be easier. We were nothing but strangers, yet this kiss was forming a connection between us that was both shocking and unstoppable.
My mind had ceased to function, reaching its peak. Now, I let my senses reign. I had never imagined my body could crave this so desperately—the touch, the tenderness, and the burgeoning need inside me. I tried to squeeze my thighs, but his knee between my legs prevented it.
“Not so soon, sweetheart,” he rumbled close to my ear and a shiver ran through me.
I let out a frustrated groan at his words but kept my lips sealed, refusing to give him the satisfaction of knowing he was affecting me. I desperately wanted to reach that peak, to fall off the cliff. It had been an eternity. Even my trusty vibrator had never made me feel the way he was making me feel right now.
His lips moved against mine with practiced ease and all I did was moan because I couldn’t control them anymore. On the other hand, I was holding myself back because I didn’t know what would happen if I didn’t. But my moans weren’t in my control anymore, they had sided with him.
My past had scared me off guys and physical intimacy was new for me. 5 long years, I hadn’t let anyone touch me and today I was feeling all of it. His touch was unnerving me, and shudders raked through my body, but he didn’t stop. He kept devouring me, clinging to me as if he was hungry for me. Little did I know, my body felt the same.
Did he know me? Why was he acting like he had never kissed before? He didn’t look like a guy to save his first kiss.
“I haven’t sweetheart.”
I gasped at his voice. Had I spoken my doubts aloud?
He chuckled and continued, his words weaving a mesmerizing tale, his hot breath caressing my skin, igniting fire inside me. “I have kissed before but nothing compares you, sweetheart. Nothing at all! You are a nectar I cannot stop drinking. You are a drug, and even though I am overdosed on you, I can’t stop. I won’t stop until I cease to exist. But I won’t die because I am not human; I am a devil, and demons reside within me. They feed on the nectar you provide. So, I will keep kissing you, keep savoring you forever and ever.”
“Forever…” I repeated, gasping at the weight of that word.
“Yes, does that scare you?”
His question wrapped around me like a double-edged sword. Part of me was elated because I wanted nothing else but to be lost in this kiss forever. Yet, another part of me wanted to escape, to get out of this situation as soon as possible.
I nodded, and he tilted his head to look at me, as if disappointed.
“What?” I asked, feeling cornered.
“Don’t you like my kiss?”
“Are you done?” I asked instead of answering him.
