Deserve to be loved
She was the daughter they didn't want. The girl her own family blamed for everything - for her brother's disappearance, for the grief they chose to wear as rage. For ten years, Amara Rose Willemson survived beatings, silence, and starvation. She kept her head down, her secrets locked, and her love for a family that did not love her back. Then came the night everything broke. One accident. One name she didn't recognize. One family who looked at her like she was something worth fighting for. She woke up as Rosa. She doesn't remember the pain. She doesn't remember the years of cruelty. And she doesn't remember him - the dark-eyed man who once watched her suffer and felt nothing but satisfaction. Xavier King Knight has never wanted anything he didn't get. But the girl he loved in silence, then hurt in silence, doesn't know his face anymore. And the man who could buy countries and break empires finds himself standing in the cold outside her gate for seven days - waiting for a girl who doesn't owe him a single second of her time. She forgot everything he did to her. He remembers every last thing. Does she deserve to be loved? She always did. The question is whether the people around her finally deserve her.

When Silence Breaks (Hausa Story)
They say a woman's success means nothing if she doesn't end up married. I used to laugh at that. Quietly. The kind of laughter that doesn't escape your lips, because you don't have time for arguments that go nowhere. My name is Ibtihal. I'm twenty-eight. I have two degrees, a corner office in Abuja, and enough money to make my own choices - or so I thought. But in a house where my mother prays more for my marriage than for my health, and my father treats every holiday like a matchmaking summit, my silence eventually became an agreement. Not because I was in love. Not even because I believed in the institution. But because I was tired. Tired of being the "too focused" one. The "still not married" one. The "career is not companionship" one. So I said yes. To a man I didn't know. A man who barely looked at me during the introduction. A man who, as I later found out, had someone else waiting for him - someone he actually loved. But he said yes too, because his uncle - the man who raised him after he lost his parents - asked him to. A year, we agreed. A year of pretending. No expectations. No intimacy. No emotional strings. Just two people performing tradition so the noise would stop. And I was fine with that. More than fine, actually. I didn't want love. I didn't want mess. I wanted space to breathe and be left alone. But then, something changed. It wasn't dramatic. There were no candlelit moments or sudden heartbeats. It was subtle - the way he started looking at me like I wasn't just a deal. The way my name sounded different coming from his lips. The way I began to notice his silence... and miss it when it wasn't there. I didn't mean to fall. And I don't think he meant to either. But here we are - trapped in a marriage neither of us wanted... now tangled in feelings neither of us planned for. And for the first time in my life, I'm not so sure I want to be left alone anymore.
