Doing as others told me, I was blind
Coming when others called me, I was lost
Then I left everyone, myself as well
Then I found everyone, myself as well

She's an innocent face with a fake name, a hurricane behind the calm facade. When Brekhna Khanzada becomes Leyla to outrun the demons of her past, the present surprises her with a beast in the form of Burq Al Aziz-- everything she hates molded together into a man. To make things complicated, a mistake called wedding ties them both together, each seeking their own personal gains. When their perspectives and personalities clash, both realize opposites not always attract.

Her husband becomes just another hindrance in Leyla's mission of avenging her murdered brother and chasing down her dreams, while his wife is nothing to Burq but a doll to please himself.

Three months later after Burq loses his memory in an accident, Leyla has a chance to change the rules and turn the game. But how long can she play tricks to tame the beast? Or will she actually turn his heart into gold?

Her eyes reflect the sun sinking behind the horizon, like a canvas with colors in mayhem. Her gaze sails across the orange rays before finding him, his golden orbs already awaiting her dark ones, letting the contrast bewitch him.

"Were I the pale blue sea under lilac sky, would you have loved me then?"

She smiles at his words, the beach sand feeling soft beneath her feet as she steps closer to him.

"What if I say I love lightning storms in blackened nights more, would you believe me then?"

His lips pull back into a grin of his own, displaying his perfect set of teeth, but his irises shade melancholic. Every breath he takes feels charged-- the air has a spark. Yet a piece of his heart remains missing, making him feel incomplete.

His agile fingers reach out to graze the back of her hand up to her wrist, holding it gently but firmly. He lightly tugs her towards himself.

"Stay, Leyla. Don't leave me."

PLEASE NOTE that this book talks about the flaws in our society and within us in general, and is not meant to target a particular group of people. The culture and religion portrayed by the characters in this book are the one I follow, chosen so for my own convenience, and no hate shall be tolerated against them, at all. If you're easily offended, this is not a place for you. If you decide to read on, I welcome you here. Happy reading (:
