Copyright© 2022. All rights reserved. Two people forced to live under the same roof in the name of something called 'conjugation' a sacred relationship that is supposed to be filled with love, tolerance, patience, consideration, listening and respect but in this situation, it is the total opposite of what a marriage encompasses. Theirs is filled with castigation, intolerance, cowardice and heedlessness. Merged with dramatic in-laws, the family is turned upside down. Although she couldn't see his face, she sensed a change in the atmosphere... the fierce will of a warrior in battle, the urge to conquer and dominate. Aware of his violence barely kept in check, Layla remained very still. She kept her face turned away and listened to his breathing, until the deepening movements of his lungs became calm once more. Not at all moved of scared, she lifted a mocking brow and jeered. "Go to hell, Captain!"

Copyright© 2023. All rights reserved. Meet Yasmin El-suraj, the epitome of determination. Defying the stifling norms of a judgmental society, Yasmin fervently pursues her dreams to ensure her family's rightful prosperity. In a society quick to judge, branding a woman's success as tied to whoring about and veiling it under a less prosperous business, Yasmin refuse to be defined by prejudice. When fate presents her the chance to become an event planner, Yasmin seizes it like a lifeline, disregarding her humble beginnings and embracing the opportunity with vigor. As the youngest and least affluent among her peers, she pours her heart and soul into mastering the craft, unwilling to squander this chance. Amidst the whirlwind of her burgeoning career, fate orchestrates a pivotal encounter during her first wedding event-a meeting with Abdullah, a groomsman. A man she knew she wanted, she fell for at first sight. The memory of their first interaction is a blend of blushing embarrassment and unforgettable mortification, etching itself indelibly in Yasmin's psyche. Most wouldn't look his way ever again and would hope to never meet in this lifetime, but not Yasmin. Despite discovering Abdullah's impending marriage, she stakes her claim, unyielding in a society where a man can have four wives, determined to find her place in his life.

Join me, let's unravel the story of two different people. He's a gardener in her father's house and she's treated like a slave in her father's house. A mother's love is the sacred kind of love. The love that wherever you are, no matter who you are and what becomes of you, is solid and the most needful love. It doesn't waver even on days that soft human being feels tired or depressed, it's always there whenever you need it. It's a love planted so deep that no one could ever reach its roots. The greatest of all loves. They both were hungry of it. They both were cold, they need a mother's closure, a mother's warmth and her love to fill their hearts. They live in two different worlds, where there's no path linking them. He lives as a gardener in her father's mansion, walking around every day with grief, and the starvation of a mother's love. She sees his grief without asking him, she sense his hunger before he speaks to her, she knows what he wants just staring at him. They have never shared a word about it, but through their hearts; Tariq and Zulekha knew their deep wounds that they both were certain would hurt for eternity.
