The stained bloodline. The name she never asked for. The girl who was never meant to belong. Aqilah Ranya Suldaha and Zaram Rasheed Rabbani. She was the quiet shadow in a loud legacy-born out of wedlock and raised far from the power tied to her surname. He was the pride of a noble bloodline-the son of a Datu, raised on duty and the bitterness of old wounds. She is everything his world was taught to reject. He is everything her world was built to fear. Their lives should've never crossed. But in Sultan Naga, where names hold power and silence screams louder than truth, fate doesn't ask for permission. He looks at her and sees disgrace. She looks at him and feels the weight of blame she never chose to carry.

It's a rebellion against the path they were forced to follow. A journey that begins when one girl dares to step off the trail...and walk into a world that never wanted her.
