It was meant to be a simple union of duty and obligation.
For her,a sacrifice for family.
For him,a gilded punishment.
Dr. Nazara Amana Mansoor, a brilliant cardiologist content with her life of service, never questioned when her family arranged her marriage to Prince Zayd Fuad Ibn Abbas Zarumi. She accepted her role, ready to fulfill her destiny within the powerful Caliphate.
But that was before the secrets, the betrayal, and the deadly politics of the palace threatened to destroy everything she loved.
Now, standing on the soil of Sokoto with her head held high and her heart in ruins, she sends a warning to her former self, a whisper on the wind of what could have been:
"When my mother said I was getting married, I accepted. If only I had known what it would cost me, I would have run far away and never looked back."

She cried "Heh" he chuckled, "don't play dumb with me Kulthum. Just tell me why you chose him over me? What am I lacking? Huh? Tell me!" He shouted pushing her more against the wall. "Because you are evil! I never loved you in the first place, you are nothing worth loving" she spat as tears flowed down her beautiful face.
