Meena was practically Prince Soma's closest confidant growing up—the one person he could rely on when his parents weren't around. So when she suddenly left India with an Englishman named Lord West, the prince was devastated. He tracked her down to England, only to discover that Lord West had something in mind: he forced Agni (the legendary chef known as the "Right Hand of God" for his cooking skills) into a high-stakes curry competition. The deal was simple—if Agni lost, Meena would go back to pretending to be her old self around the prince, keeping up the façade that she was content as his servant.
But here's the thing: Meena hadn't been kidnapped or tricked into leaving. She'd escaped on purpose. She was burned out from caring for Soma and tired of being trapped in a servant's life because of her caste. Lord West represented freedom—a way out of a role she never actually wanted.
