Tabatha estaba comprometida, un matrimonio arreglado desde antes de su nacimiento, un trato entre familias de renombre. Un matrimonio no deseado por ella.
Noreen, una huérfana que había tenido que criar a sus hermanos sola a la edad de 12 años. Valiente es una de las mejores palabras que la describen, pero no es fácil, no tiene a nadie.
Hasta ahora.
Ahí es donde todo comienza, en Khartoum, capital de Sudán. Donde la homosexualidad es ilegal, un pecado que se castiga con muerte. Una ciudad en donde todos viven con miedo de expresarse.
-TITULO-
Jellabiya: Prenda de vestir típica de Sudán y Egipto. Generalmente se refiere a la prenda femenina, pero no tiene género.
¿Por qué en inglés?
En Sudán las familias de renombre o más importantes hablan inglés, mientras que el resto puede hablar árabe o diferentes idiomas indígenas.

Blood and Thunder
You've just woken in the woods, away from everything you know. You're dazed and confused, unable to comprehend what's just happened. As you are coming to, images flash before your eyes of the last few days. Your parents were taken by the police, you were forced to run, to leave everything behind, to save yourself and your sister. But she isn't here. You panic and look around, you stop. You remember. She too was taken, you are alone. For now. This is what happened to Alexander, his life has just been turned upside down. The year is 2415, the world has both evolved and devolved. It isn't how people imagined. Flying cars, robots in every house, telekinetic pencils. No, they are only in comic books. Self driving cars. No robots in houses, but workhouses instead. Telekinetic pencils... that's possible, if you are gifted with the power of telekinesis. There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end. From burning books, rewriting history and breaking human rights, this government will stop at nothing to make it seem that they are doing good. But people have had enough, the secret came out before. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government. Armed only the powers they were born with, the group do everything they can to discover the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But many have tried and failed, do they really stand a chance? Alexander doesn't think so, but his main concern is finding his sister, Rosia.Concluida

Mafia's Forced Wife
Being a Muslim girl and in a conservative family with three protective brothers to care for you for your entire life....It makes you spoiled, protected and well naïve to some point. My name is Sharia Qureshi. I am a cardiologist. Saving lives gives me the reason to live. I believe that living life for yourself is easy but giving a part of it to others is something worth living for. Starting as an intern at a reputated hospital was all I wanted after completing my degree. But never in my life I expected Allah would turn my life from a free spirited girl to damsel in distress with none other than the shaitaan(devil). #################### "You never married me with my own free will. You forced me and my family into this. Allah will make you pay for this." He started laughing at my face mocking my words. Breaking me. Showing me how powerless I was in front of him. He closed the gap between us, stepping dangerously close. I took a sharp breath as he held my my hair painfully pushing my scalp back leaving burning sensation. He leaned down to whisper hotly in my ears."You are mine and only mine to give pain. You will beg me to be free." # 15 Compassion (06/21/2021) #1 Compassion (10/19/2022)Concluida!["My Little Monster~"|| Selever X Reader [DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/268673945-256-k202187.jpg)

Just another look
Summer was finally here, and Amira was excited to return to her little village in the heart of Morocco. Not only was she happy to reunite with her family, but also to help her older sister with her wedding preparations. She thought that she would make the journey alone, but it turned out that a certain family was going to accompany her. This same family housed a person Amira never expected to talk to again. Ten years have passed, but the event she experienced with him was still stuck in her mind. ° ° ° It's 93k words. My story is a romance taking place in North-Africa and a little bit in France. I hope you learn a little bit about my culture through it and enjoy the love story 🥰. There is some angst, but it's mostly fluff. Please leave a comment if you like it 🤍 • English is not my mother tongue. If you see any grammar and/or syntax errors, please tell me. I still have a loooooottt to correct in it so please bear with me 🫶🏼 Feel free to give a try tho ! Thank you !Concluida
The Thorn (wlw)
Crown Princess Leonore, heir to the queendom of Dranath, likes women, obviously. The Queen Mother Carmilla marries her off to Sir Gabriel, obviously. So when she finds out Sir Gabriel is a woman... Dranath; queendom of mystique, bordered by jealous allies. To the southwest, the states of Aurune. East is the coast and the maritime poleis of Raham. To the north, the Hierstag clans. Rich in land and crop and poor in everything else, the queendom is closed in from all fronts. And when the sword of years-long grudges is brought to bear, who will play it to the hilt? ------------------------------ i wanted to say that this book is my love letter to imperialism, but it's actually lovingly crafted hatemail non-anonymously submitted to imperialism's tumblr asks. this is an exploration of how much suffering one can propagate in order to achieve one's goal, and the degree in which your decisions can be justified (even only to yourself!) before you become, essentially, irredeemable; an exercise in Is It Worth It Though yeah there's magic(k) in this one. and a lot of geopolitics! might have gotten carried away with the geopolitics. come for the gay, stay for the political machinations. or come for the political machinations and stay for the gay, i dont mind. 3rd person pov, leonore-centric, no homophobia (at least, not the kind we usually see), i want to say butch/femme but honestly it's butch gabriel/whatever the hell leonore is. folk anti-hero narrative or villain origin story, you decideConcluida
