Reasons Not To Die

• Love has never been more painful. When two opposite sides collide the spark is divine but deadly.

The river has never been more gracious to two individuals who never planned to meet at its banks one night.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the death of his brother, Rashid agreed to marry his brother's betrothed to secure the ties between his kingdom and her father's city.

Jazarah's plan to end the marriage comes to a halt with her father's threat. She cannot afford any more failed engagements, she must marry Rashid.

*******************

"Are you jealous Jazhara?" Rashid dared to lift his fingers to tilt Jazarah's chin to meet his gaze. Her black eyes meets his honey in a clash. It's always a battle of who would look away first. Rashid being trained to dominate will never falter and Jazarah's pride will never let her falter. The weaker one would look away first.

Jazarah could not ignore the tingling sensation she felt on her chin. Looking at Rashid and having him touch her wasn't a battle Jazarah was ready to face. She ignored the humming of her blood and poured her confidence into his penetrating gaze.

"You want the truth, Rashid?" Jazarah couldn't help but give into the demands of his stare. He wanted the truth and she will give it to him. Only the truth will be interwoven in their words.
