S2 Chapter 17

Kadira quickly got the hang of her duties as queen and dove headfirst into making real changes.

Even though she was new to all this, she had a sharp mind and a kind heart, which made her perfect for the job. She started introducing modern ideas that were completely new to the kingdom, but the people trusted her and were willing to follow because she truly cared about them.

Akram, who used to overlook Kadira's potential, soon realized just how smart and capable she was. Whenever he faced a tough decision, he turned to her for advice, and she became a key part of running the kingdom.

Together, they took on the corruption in the ministry, getting rid of officials who were only interested in their own wealth and replacing them with people who actually wanted to help the kingdom.

One of Kadira’s first big projects was building a dam to stop the floods that kept damaging the kingdom. It was a massive effort that required tons of workers and resources, but Kadira's vision was clear: protect the land and improve the kingdom’s agriculture.

When the dam was done, it didn’t just prevent floods; it also provided water for farming, boosting the economy.

Kadira was also deeply committed to helping the poor. She set up relief centers all over the kingdom where people could get food, shelter, and medical care.

She made sure that no one was left out. She also understood how important education was, especially for girls who had been denied the chance to learn. With Akram’s support, she opened schools that welcomed everyone, no matter their background. These schools became a symbol of hope and progress.

Employment was another big focus for Kadira and Akram. They knew a strong economy was key, so they created job programs that gave people work in agriculture, infrastructure, and trade.

The kingdom, once struggling with poverty, was now buzzing with activity and optimism.

As the kingdom thrived, word spread, and refugees from nearby regions came seeking a better life. Kadira and Akram welcomed them, offering the same rights and opportunities as their own citizens.

This influx of new people added to the kingdom’s diversity and made it even stronger.

One of the most groundbreaking things Kadira did was introduce a voting system. For the first time, people could elect their ministers, giving them a real say in the government.

This change was huge, making sure the leaders truly represented the people. Kadira’s careful oversight meant that corruption was nearly wiped out, making the kingdom one of the fairest and most efficient around.

The kingdom was full of praise for Kadira and Akram, whose leadership had brought such positive change.

The empire itself grew as more territories wanted to be part of their successful rule. Under Kadira and Akram, every household was guaranteed three meals a day—something that was unheard of before.

It hadn’t been an easy road, but the hard work paid off. People saw their lives improve and were happy to follow Kadira’s lead.

The kingdom had never been stronger, and its citizens had never been happier. Kadira and Akram’s reign was one of progress, fairness, and compassion—a legacy that would be remembered for generations.

"It's been a tough two years, begum," Akram murmured, his voice low as he nuzzled into Kadira’s neck, inhaling the soft scent of her skin.

"And yet, you’re acting like a baby around me," she replied, smiling as she gently ran her fingers through his hair, feeling the soft strands slip through her fingers.
