Mahira | His Want

Mahira had always admired her professor, a quiet crush she carried in her heart—never imagining that destiny would draw them closer than she could ever dare to dream. But the cost of that closeness? It was everything she had. One night, under the haze of spiked drinks and reckless passion, Mahira found herself bound to a truth she could not escape... she was carrying Ibzan's child. The reality is merciless. For her family, reputation is everything. To preserve their honor, Mahira is forced into marriage with the very man who spent the night with her - her professor. But no one knows the hidden truth. Ibzan's heart belongs to someone else. He respects Mahira, even cherishes her, yet his love remains locked away, leaving her a stranger in the marriage that fate has forced upon them. Mahira learns to live with the silence of a love she may never have, while Ibzan struggles under the weight of duty, torn between what is right and what he truly desires. But is love really absent? Or is destiny quietly weaving their hearts together, despite everything—family, shame, and the walls they've built between them?
