You know that moment when your heart stops and time ceases to exist? When the capacity of your mind is utterly and completely absorbed in the immeasurable seconds that tick by right in front of your face. When there is only one word, one name playing about your lips, through your mind, and across your heart. When the only things that matters is what is right there. Then. Now. 

That's the moment I dread. 



Francis is just a small town girl, penniless and living off of the broken idea of love. Her family, having discarded her as a menace and a bad influence, are long gone, leaving her alone in the world but for her small apartment, awful job and iron spirit. On the edge of disaster - both financially and emotionally - Francis must fight to secure her place in the world and to stifle her mind's cry for release. Her life cannot simply remain hanging just in the balance of safety; she, a woman contending against all odds, must take her life into her own hands.

But will it be enough?



This is my first book on Wattpad and I'm really not an experienced writer. I don't even know if I'm going to finish this, or even write another chapter, but if I do, I present to you my badly written, most probably grammatically incorrect, mess of a novel. Thanks for reading, I hope you will understand my situation. Also, (I apologise in advance) please understand that I'm not particularly knowledgable on the time period that this book will be based in (the 1920s in England), so please feel free to correct me on any mistakes I might make. 

Thanks!! 🤍

P.S. I would like to dedicate this book to my friend, Em. She is my number one fan. 😂

This was my first time. I patiently waited for the man Dua Begum told me would be my first to bed with. After starting to bleed two years ago, my stepmother left me at a pleasure house when my father abandoned us. Since then, I've accepted the pleasure house as my new home. He walked in a black Kurta with subtle green eyes and a deep voice. The moment he asked my name and age and then proposed to me for the wedding, I fell in love. There was no denying it. I was just fifteen, and he was nineteen. But, ever since the night of our wedding, he has not come back to take me with him to his home. He left me alone, stranded, burning for him. I did not know who he was. What did he do? All I knew was that he was the soul of my World. My Jaan-e-Jahan. Seven years later, he came back as a storm in my life. As Sultan Rehman Sulaiman. The son of the man who took everything from my family, even before my birth. The reason I ended up in the Pleasure House in the first place. But my love for my husband, the Sultan, is bigger than the mountains, deeper than the oceans, and wider than the skies, even though he is himself a Mountain, impossible to move, an ocean, scaring people to stay away, and a wide sky, impossible to reach. Discipline is everything for him. He is full of love and respect for his family but equally heartless and dangerous toward those who cross him. And, in all of this, I entered his life as a burning flame, a tiny candle's flame, dancing for his attention, crying for his affection, and dying for his love. Until he killed my only loved one. My love died. And, his never bloomed. I was once a bud, unbloomed Rose, who opened my deep red petals for him, and he turned them black, leaving me forgotten inside the dying pages. Was I always forgotten for him? Did he never consider me anything more than a mere responsibility? Will I always be remembered as Bride of Sultan ~ The Forgotten Rose?
