Like every other Muslimah her age, Syeda Anaabiya Ahmed dreamed of a love that would heal her scars-a love that would cherish and protect her. As an orphan, she had spent her life fighting battles no child should face-struggling for survival, for a home, and, most painfully, for the love even her own younger sister denied her. Her last hope rested on marriage-the man destined to be her partner, her guide, the one who would help her grow into a better Muslimah. But that dream shattered the moment she was forced to marry Syed Humza Junaid-a man she loathed, a man as ruthless as the dark empire he ruled, a man who saw love as nothing more than a weakness. Defiant and unyielding, Anaabiya refuses to be another pawn in Humza's world of power and crime. She challenges him at every turn, determined not to bow to his arrogance and cruelty. But just when she thinks she has him figured out, the cracks in his armor begin to show-a man tormented by his demons, a man who, against all odds, might just be capable of love. As their world spirals into chaos, hatred begins to blur into something far more dangerous. Love. Obsession. Destruction. Will Anaabiya tame the monster within him, or will she lose herself in the fire that is Syed Humza Junaid? Join Anaabiya on a journey where love and ruin walk hand in hand-where the heart's deepest desires clash with fate's cruelest twists.

Ona s lehce rozevřenými rty a soustředěnýma očima zkoumala zboží vystavené před obchůdkem. On zkoumal ji. Ještě si ho nevšimla, i když na ni po celou dobu upíral oči, zatímco si užíval odpolední kávu. Seděl ve stínu malé kavárny jako jediný host. Spokojeně potahoval z cigarety a visel na ní pohledem jako na tom nejbarvitějším plátně. Fascinovala ho. Vystoupila ze stínu všech těch chudáků okolo a ozářila vše sluncem. Květované šaty se jí vlnily kolem boků svádivým způsobem a odhalovaly sotva kolena. Vlasy byly její výhra. Zlatavé lokny se jí spouštěly do poloviny zad a vyvolávaly ve vás jen samé vzrušující představy. Zrzka každým coulem. Zrozená Venuše. Upozornění: Čtení na vlastní odpovědnost
