The moon hung low over the quiet city, casting long shadows over its narrow streets. In the stillness of the night, a figure stood at the edge of the prayer mat, his eyes closed, his lips moving silently in prayer. His heart, however, was far from peace. Zayd had always been a man of discipline, a man of power-his every move calculated, his every word measured. Yet, within the walls of his mind, a storm brewed. A storm that had a name: Noor.
She was the kind of woman who didn't demand attention, yet drew it effortlessly. Shy, soft-spoken, with eyes that always seemed to be looking down. But to Zayd, she was more than just an innocent soul. She was his obsession, his temptation-the one thing he could not control. He had watched her from the shadows, unseen, his desire growing like a fire he couldn't extinguish.
Noor had always believed in the goodness of others, her faith pure and unwavering. The world had not yet shown her its darker side. But soon, she would learn. She would learn that not all prayers go unanswered, and not all desires can be ignored.
As the night deepened, Zayd made a silent vow. He would have her, no matter the cost. Even if it meant dragging her into the depths of his darkness. For in his world, love was not a gift-it was a curse. And Noor was about to find out just how dangerous his love could be.
In the silence of his room, the words of his prayer echoed, but this time, they held a different meaning.
"Ya Allah, forgive me for what I am about to do."
this might come across as another attempt for romanticize abuse but have faith and read till the end
Amal's pov:
"please leave me" i pleaded to him but he just tightened his grip on my hand.
"why?" he asked clenching his jaw staring at me and that was enough for me to get scared ,
he came closer to me and holding both my hands he pushed me towards him
"i am asking you something, why should i not touch you?"
i looked down trying to blink away my tears scared of the fact that if he sees me crying,
i dont know what will he do.
"just please i cant do this" I tried to explain my voice broken and shaky
"I.Am.Asking" he paused and digged his finger deeper in my arms,
"WHY!!!!??" he yelled
i flinched and started shaking furiously
"because its haram" i said and started sobbing he left my both hands and held my face in his hand squeezing my cheeks painfully, while I trembled in his arms,
"are you really that Muslim who cares about haram and halal?"
i felt like he slapped me,
i looked at him shocked tears pooling out of my eyes,
he took a deep breath trying to calm himself
"i own you amal sweetheart but since you keep saying its haram, i am going to marry you and then i will see what excuse you have,
now take rest darling you are going to be my bride today" with that he threw me on the bed and left and i just sobbed over my condition and started praying to allah to save me.
