"There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment." - Sarah Dessen

Some people chase power. Some chase love. Shaheed Muhammad El-Yakub chased neither, he built walls instead.
In the city of Abuja, where wealth gleamed in glass towers and luxury cars glided silently along wide roads, he was a man everyone noticed but no one knew. Calm. Unshakable. Dangerous only in the quiet way he moved through the world. He had learned early that hearts were fragile, trust was scarce, and love was... a story for fools.
And yet, fate has a way of laughing at certainty.
Across town, Inaya Ibrahim Dantata strode through life like a storm wrapped in sunlight, playful, fearless, and entirely unpredictable. Beautiful, clever, untouchable... the kind of woman who could unravel a man's composure without even trying.
Two worlds, two legacies, two people who had no reason to collide. And yet, in the twists of chance, in the subtle pull of attraction, their paths were about to cross.
One glance, one conversation, and the walls Shaheed built so carefully might finally have cracks. And Inaya? She had no idea that love could arrive quietly, without warning, and shake her world completely.
Because sometimes, the strongest hearts are the ones that fall when they least expect it.
