In politics, image is everything. Behind every picture-perfect smile, someone always bleeds.

"The world will see your ring... but only I will see the leash attached to it."

Layla married for freedom.

He married for power.

Their union was never about love, it was performance.
A show for the cameras, a fantasy for the nation.

But in this world, scripts don't last. Desire festers, deception deepens, trust and loyalty are measured by how many skeletons you can bury, and secrets rise - the kind powerful enough to destroy nations.

In political affairs, no one is ever what they seem.
The same person who kisses you for the cameras... might be the one to pull the trigger in the dark.

This is the price of power - gaining it, keeping it, surviving it.

Another irony of this life?

You go from wanting freedom to falling into the arms of someone who wants to own your being.

"Every one of my yeses will be your yes... my no will be yours too."

This isn't a marriage.
It's a battle wrapped with luxury!!!

AOTH Sagir Bawa was once a man overflowing with love and tenderness until his first heartbreak shattered his soul in the cruellest way imaginable. That single event transformed him, filling his heart with bitterness and leaving him vowing never to love again. Relationships, marriage, and the thought of being with another woman became a distant, scorned memory. But fate rarely follows the plans we make. When his parents decide to force him into an arranged marriage, despite his vehement protests, Sagir finds himself standing on the precipice of a promise he made long ago. Will he bend to their will, or stay true to his vow to never love again? Then came her........ Hairana Sultan, whose stubbornness and fiery personality masked a life overshadowed by aching sorrow. She believed love was nothing but an illusion-a word spoken but never truly felt. And like Sagir, marriage had been forced upon her, though to Hairana, it seemed like the only way to grasp her freedom. But secrets have their own gravity, and Hairana's mother holds the weightiest one of all-one that could shake Hairana's world to its core. When Sagir and Hairana's paths collide, both tethered by destiny, their unyielding stubbornness threatens to combust. Neither believes in love; neither trusts the idea of happiness shared with another. Yet, can the heart remain untouched when fate is determined to intervene? As challenges arise, and life's trials test the strength of their resolve, will their hearts soften toward each other-or will their aching hearts remain impenetrable, refusing to bow to the whispers of love? ......... ☺️☺️☺️
