13 parts Ongoing MatureZaina had always imagined her love story would unfold like the ones in her favorite novels-unexpected, intense, and with a touch of destiny. She never thought she would find that love at a family gathering, but when she first laid eyes on Aidan, her father's friend's son, it felt like the world paused just for them. Adian was charming, with a quiet strength that drew her in immediately. Their eyes met across the room, and in that moment, Zaina felt a connection so deep it took her breath away. It was love at first sight, undeniable and consuming.
For days, Zaina found herself daydreaming about Adian, imagining what their future could be like. Every time they crossed paths, her heart fluttered with a mix of excitement and nerves. She believed that fate had brought them together. But fate, as it turned out, had other plans.
The news came like a thunderbolt-Zaina's marriage had been arranged, not with Adian, but with his older brother, Alem. Alem was everything Adian was not: serious, reserved, and utterly devoted to his family's traditions. The news shattered Zaina's dreams, leaving her torn between her feelings for Adian and her duty towards her family. She felt trapped in a story she didn't choose, where her heart was being pulled in two different directions.
