Before the crown, there were wounds so deep they burned him into someone unrecognisable.

Reyansh Nanda was never born a king.
He was made into one.

Forged in fire.
Sharpened by betrayal.
Abandoned by the people who were supposed to love him.

At eighteen, he learned the first rule of survival—
The people you die for are often the ones who watch you drown.

His girlfriend cheated on him with his own cousin.
His family threw him out like he was dirt on their shoes.
His dreams were shattered.
His heart was crushed.
And his name… smeared.

For three nights, he slept on a park bench.
For three days, he survived on water.
But for the first time in his life—
He was free.

Free from expectations.
Free from manipulation.
Free from people who only loved the version of him that benefited them.

He should have broken.
He should have collapsed.

But instead…
He rebuilt.

Brick by brick.
Skill by skill.
Failure by failure.

And beside him was the one person who never left—
Kabir, his childhood friend.
His shield.
His brother by choice.
The only hand that pulled him out when the world tried to bury him alive.

Reyansh worked four jobs.
Studied late nights.
Learned everything from coding to stock analysis.
And slowly… painfully… relentlessly…

He rose.

One company.
Then five.
Then, an empire powerful enough to shake every market in the world.

At twenty-three, the world whispered his name.
At twenty-five, it feared him.
At twenty-seven, it bowed.

He became what they never imagined—
The Youngest Trillionaire in History.
The Business King of the World.

But even kings have weaknesses.

She walked into his life like a storm in heels—
Serena Kapoor.
The Glamour Queen.
Fashion’s iron-fisted ruler.
A woman who didn’t bow to anyone.
A woman who didn’t need saving…
Yet saved him without trying.

He didn’t believe in love.
She didn’t believe in forever.
But fate believed in both.

Their worlds collided.
Their fire matched.
Their storms merged.

And together,
they built an empire no one could touch.

From betrayal to billion-dollar boardrooms.
From ashes to crowns.
From strangers…
to soulmates.

This is the story of a boy who lost everything—
only to rise higher than destiny itself.

This is the story of Reyansh Nanda.
The boy they broke.
The man they created.
The king they never saw coming.
