21 parts Complete Raha has spent her life in hiding-behind silence, behind routine, behind the illusion of safety.
Then Kiara walks in-fearless, bright, and unapologetically herself-and for the first time, Raha dares to imagine a different kind of life. One where love isn't a secret. One where being herself doesn't come with a cost.
But in a world where truth is dangerous and two women loving each other is a whispered shame, every step toward freedom feels like betrayal. Caught between fear and feeling, Raha must make an impossible choice: stay safe in the shadows... or risk everything for a taste of something real.
The Cost of Freedom is a raw, intimate story of forbidden love, quiet rebellion, and the price we pay to survive-and the even greater cost of choosing to live.
