ABOUT THIS BOOK
Description
Maheer’s Private Moment Interrupted
Maheer leaves his house to the garden seeking solitude, lighting a cigar, deeply lost in thoughts about Yasmeen—the girl he can’t stop thinking about. He reflects on how he's canceled all his schedules for the day just because of her. Despite being confused by his growing feelings, he just needs air, peace, and distance.
Yasmeen’s Daring Escape
Back in the room, Yasmeen is restless. Feeling trapped, she removes her IV line painfully, wraps herself in a cloth, and attempts to escape through the window. Although she’s weak and injured, her desperation drives her. She manages to squeeze herself through, despite the window's metal bars scraping her skin and feet.
Just as she starts moving through the compound, she encounters three massive black guard dogs. Unlike any she’s seen before, they bark wildly and charge at her. In terror, Yasmeen screams at the top of her lungs, running barefoot and bleeding, yelling for help.
Maheer’s Heroic Rescue
Hearing the chaos and Yasmeen’s desperate cries, Maheer springs from his garden seat and rushes toward the sound. He meets her just as she leaps into his arms in sheer panic. Yasmeen clings tightly to him—arms around his neck, legs around his waist—seeking protection. She buries her face in his neck, trembling, crying, refusing to let go.
With a single commanding shout, “Kikito!”, Maheer stops the dogs mid-air. They freeze. His bodyguards and Dan rush to the scene, but he silently motions them to leave. Instead of pushing her off, Maheer walks back into the garden carrying Yasmeen. Something in her touch, her trembling, her scent—softens his soul.
Their Most Intimate Moment
Once back at the garden swing seat, he gently tells her to let go, but she refuses, whispering through tears,
> “You are my savior.”
Maheer, overwhelmed but composed, asks her if she’s still scared. She says yes. He shoos the dogs away and finally convinces her to release him.
They exchange a deep gaze for the first time. Yasmeen is struck by how handsome he is; he stares at her like she’s the only woman in existence. It's the first real connection between them, unfiltered.
Hajiya’s Shock & Pablo’s Boldness
Just then, Hajiya rushes in, shocked to find Yasmeen wrapped around Maheer. Yasmeen instantly tries to dismount, but Maheer stops her calmly and scolds her for ignoring her injuries.
Seeing her foot bleeding, he calls Dan for a first aid kit. Hajiya attempts to treat the wound, but Maheer harshly stops her:
> “Don’t you dare touch her. Leave.”
Hajiya, stunned and silent, leaves. Maheer sits Yasmeen down and begins tending to her wound himself.
Pain and Revelation
While cleaning her wound, Maheer calls her “a stubborn girl”, and she shoots him a glare. But when he pours spirit on her foot, she flinches and holds onto his shoulder, crying in pain. He warns her coldly:
> “This should be the last time you touch me.”
Hurt but soft, Yasmeen pleads,
> “When will you let me go home?”
Maheer ignores her question at first, focusing on removing a stick embedded in her foot. Then he drops the emotional bomb:
> “I don’t forgive. Your father did something unforgivable. I released your sisters, but kept you—as his punishment.”
Yasmeen is stunned. Her eyes fill with tears again. Just as he pulls the stick out, she lets out a painful cry.
What Comes Next?
As he wraps her wound, Maheer hints ominously:
> “I don’t know how long I’ll keep you here...”
His statement leaves Yasmeen in deeper confusion and fear—unsure of what her future holds, now at the mercy of a man haunted by betrayal and shaped by vengeance.
