Unventured Passions is a contemporary romance novella in Indian context, weaving tales about a prominent young 18 year old landlord, who after becoming a barrister, returns to his country, only to find himself entangled with the fate of a 9 year old child, a girl. On a fateful stormy night, infront of hundreds of villagers, the young barrister was compelled to marry the little girl to save her life from the prevailing social evils that would have led her to imminent death. But, needless to say, he could never accept her as his wife. With an age difference of 9 years, the relationship between the two remained as that of a mentor and a mentee, a teacher and a student, for years, each growing up slowly amidst platonic companionship, until one sensuous moment of weakness. The blossoming teen girl had fallen hard for her cold barrister husband... and fearing the worst, the husband sends her away, only to realise he too had fallen for her madly... But it's late already! His baby wife wasn't a baby anymore, and the fiery passion burns hard... Would he be able to get this beautiful fiesty wife back? Will the young lady accept her husband who had renounced her once so heartlessly? The story revolves around love, hatred, jealousy, mystery, action, patriotism, and an unforgettable tale of passions above all... a saga of love beyond all odds. *Mature Content Alert*
"Barrister Babu..." Vandita called out softly as she peeped into the study room. The silence of the night was too overbearing for her low voice. Also, she was careful not to wake up Koeli or raise an alarm unnecessarily.
"Barrister Babu... You in there?" Vandita called out again, a little louder this time, as she pushed the door open.
She ran her eyes across the darkness as her voice reverberated in the empty room.
Vandita furrowed her eyebrows as she closed the door back.
"Why would he even say such a thing!... A VILE woman, it's very unlike him to use such a word!" The thought rang in her mind.
She stood there for a minute, thinking, before she finally started to walk back up to the stairs.
'Where did he go?' Vandita thought.
