Ayzel Khan was never the obedient kind-
chubby, loud, childish by choice, sharp-tongued by nature, living life between laughter, chaos, and unfinished textbooks. Marriage was the last thing on her list... especially with him.
Captain Zarrar Khan lived by rules-
discipline in his veins, silence in his authority, control in every breath he took. Love was a distraction. Marriage was a responsibility. And Ayzel? She was everything he despised and couldn't ignore.
When elders decide their nikah on Eid, consent becomes optional and fate turns cruel. Bound by blood, forced by tradition, and trapped under one name, they enter a marriage neither of them wants.
"I didn't marry you because I love you, Ayzel.
But now I'm your husband and once something is mine-
I don't let it be taken."
"You can cage my name, Captain...
but if you think you own my soul,
you'll have to destroy me first."
But hatred has a dangerous habit.
It blurs lines.
It steals breaths.
And sometimes... it turns into something far more terrifying than love.
