In Nigeria,especially northern Nigeria most young ladies are given out in marriage without their consent,sometimes they are promise out as early as age ten to men that are sometimes as old as their fathers or in some cases their own father friends....this is my protest against the barbaric tradition...

Affianced By Force
You might have heard that your life is never in your hands. Well, young, vibrant and care-free Umamah Sulaym is about to learn the full extent of the phrase. With a father who made engaging her to a man almost twice her age a dying wish, she is about to learn that responsibility knows no age and that duty is duty. Will she weave through the process of growing up, being married, being a mother and learning about her Lord at the same time or would she drown in the overwhelming burden of it all? He is cursed. Or at least, so they all say. Faisal Abdul-Rahman is a widower who has lost hope in love and marriage. Besides being a domineering Boss, he is a master at isolation and everyone knows better to stay miles away from him. But when his only friend asks him to marry his oldest daughter as his dying wish, he is both appalled and compelled. Will he fulfill the promise, become a husband and a father again and risk losing his solitude garden forever or let the 16-year-old kid and her siblings whom he had come to take as his own children find comfort elsewhere?Lengkap
STUBBORN lINEAGE.
Completed Hamma... I don't feel like eating." "Noor, eat that food now!" I said, my voice firm and commanding, cutting through the silence. She looked down at her plate, her eyes filled with reluctance. "Hamma, please... I'm not hungry. And... the food is too much for me to finish." "Noor, don't argue with me. I'm not your mate," I replied sharply. "You better eat that food, or I will force it down your throat. Trust me, I can do it." My words hung heavily in the air, a clear and unmistakable threat..... This is a story about two young people who were married without their consent, a union carried out with their parents' approval. ...So technically, it was an arranged marriage from their parents' perspective, but a forced marriage from theirs. He was far too arrogant for her liking, and she was far too stubborn and clumsy for his. Could this journey ever truly work...? We all have those cousins who can hardly be called family-more like cats and dogs. Sharing the same roof is nearly impossible, even when the rain pours endlessly. ⚠🚫⚠ WARNING: READ AT YOUR OWN PACE!!! This is a fictional story; all characters and events are imaginary, and any resemblance to real life is purely coincidental. It also explores forced marriage, is highlighting both its advantages and disadvantages-something parents should carefully consider before practicing it. Yours faithfully, The WriterLengkap

Too Good to Be Real
She felt his warm palm on her wrist and at once she was facing him. Without warning, his lips engulfed hers, setting her on fire just like she did him. His lips were warm and soft and she revelled in it as she shut her eyes, her body instantly warming up to the kiss. She wrapped her arms around him, marvelling at how their bodies fit perfectly together. It felt so good, like her head was rotating. Nothing else mattered. Just the two of them. This was all she needed. Someone who accepted her for her. Her flaws, her beauty, herself, hook line and sinker. She withdrew reluctantly, angry she had to stop the kiss and also afraid someone had seen them. As she stared into his eager eyes, she knew she loved him but she couldn't help thinking she was doing the wrong thing. She loved him, but it wasn't fair to his girl. She could do anything, run, apologise, but she followed her heart. She drew him back and continued the kiss. A Nigerian themed story bound to leave you yearning for the next chapter.Lengkap
