When Noor Ameen is forced into a marriage she never agreed to, her world flips upside down overnight. The man she's marrying-Zayn Al-Karim-is rich, powerful, and entirely emotionless. Their union isn't about love. It's about convenience. Reputation. Debt. Survival.
To him, Noor is just part of a deal.
To her, Zayn is a stranger with ice in his eyes and secrets in his silence.
But Noor isn't the obedient, fragile bride everyone expects. She has a mind of her own, a voice she refuses to silence, and a heart that won't be handed over easily.
Living under the same roof, tension sparks between them-sharp, quiet, and dangerously magnetic. As Noor begins to uncover the cold layers Zayn hides behind, she realizes that their marriage is built on more than just lies.
It's built on pain.
And maybe... the chance to heal it.
But can love bloom in a marriage that was never meant to begin?
