Farhan p.o.v

INT. AMAL'S HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY

I felt nervous  as I stood outside Aamal's house, gripping a bouquet of roses tightly. I take a deep breath, straighten my  tie, and ring the doorbell. We were supposed to have a simple wedding today . It's Aamal's wish and I respect it with all my heart . I couldn't believe my childhood friend and the one who always loved me. I wish I would have known it before I wouldn't have let Aamal suffer like that . I know people are gossiping about her in the town about how she is tainted but I really don't understand HOW SHE IS TAINTED when the man has done wrong. How can people blame and criticise the victim instead of the criminal ? I know Aamal is strong and independent enough to fight her problem but I just want to make her feel that she is not alone. I am always going to be with her .

The door swings open to reveal Aamal's Aunt , with a worried expression on her face

" Aunty ? What happened?" I immediately went to her , she was sitting on the floor with her head between her hands. I immediately noticed the messiness - broken vases, shattered glass, and overturned furniture scattered across the room. Fear and desperation consume me .It was a mess…there was blood stain on the white marble top .

" Farhan, I'm sorry. Aamal has been taken by Haider, the dangerous mafia leader. He wanted her " she said teary eyed .

My hopeful expression quickly turns to one of shock and concern.

" What? How could this happen? " I ask in disbelief

" Aunt Zahra, we have to do something! We can't let Aamal stay with that monster. We have to rescue her! " I stood up panicking

She clutching her chest " I know, Farhan. But Haider is not a man to be taken lightly. He's ruthless, powerful, and possesses an army of loyal followers. I fear for Animals safety, not just that they took Ibrahim and his father too, " she cried louder .

I paced back and forth, his mind racing.

I rub my face and stop " We can't just sit here, Aunt Zahra. We need to find help, someone who can take on Haider and save Aamal. I won't let him get away with this "

Zahra holds my hands, gazing at him with gratitude." Farhan, you have a noble heart. That's exactly why Aamal fell in love with you. We'll fight for her, together ''

I nod and wipe away a tear, with determination unwavering.

Aamal p.o.v

I sat there, in the opulence of the luxurious room that had been given to me by the notorious and dangerous Mafia Haider. As I surveyed the grandeur surrounding me, a sense of numbness settled deep within my being. It was a feeling that permeated my every thought, an eerie detachment from reality.

Just a few hours ago, I had been forcefully abducted, torn away from the safety and comfort of my own life. Haider, a man of power and influence feared by many, had orchestrated my kidnapping with ease, as if plucking a mere pawn from a chessboard.

And now, here I was, returned to his towering mansion, trapped within its fortified walls. The room I found myself in was the epitome of luxury, its extravagant furnishings a stark contrast to my captive state. Gilded decorations adorned the walls, and the delicate scent of expensive perfumes wafted through the air, mingling with an undercurrent of danger.

As I gazed out the expansive window, my mind struggled to comprehend the reality of my situation. How had I ended up in this opulent prison? Why had Haider chosen me as his captive? How come he fell in love with someone as ordinary as me ? Questions swirled mercilessly in my mind, each one more perplexing than the last.

But beneath the veneer of wealth and grandeur, fear danced with trepidation within me. Haider, a man notorious for his brutality and ruthlessness, had revealed nothing of his intentions. His inexplicable actions only served to deepen my sense of dread, leaving me teetering on the precipice of despair.

I hugged myself, trying to ward off the chill that seeped through my bones. The room's ostentatious beauty seemed to mock my suffering, a twisted display of power by the perpetrator of my captivity. How had I become entangled in this dangerous game, ensnared by a man so feared and revered?

As I sat there, my thoughts wavering between fear and confusion, I resolved to gather my strength. Though trapped within these lavish walls, my spirit remained unbroken. I would survive and find a way to escape this devious web Haider had spun around me.

And so, as I sat there, my heart pounding within my chest, I steeled myself for the treacherous path that lay ahead. Numbness would give way to resilience, fear would make room for courage, and with each passing day, I would inch closer to breaking free from the clutches of Mafia Haider and reclaiming my stolen life.

Just as despair began to weigh heavily on my trembling shoulders, the door suddenly swung open, announcing Haider's menacing presence. Panic flooded my veins as I locked eyes with him, his glinting gaze filled with malice and an unhinged sense of power. I recoiled, my body instinctively shrinking further into the corner.

Haider's voice echoed through the room, cold and dripping with menace. He wasted no time in verbally cornering me, his malicious intent thinly veiled. With a twisted smirk tugging at the corners of his lips, he revealed the cruel hand he had dealt, preying on my vulnerabilities.

"You know, my dear Aamal," he hissed, his tone laced with sadistic satisfaction, emphasising my name in a demeaning manner. "I hold the lives of your beloved uncle and brother in my hands. Their fate rests solely on your decision."

My breath hitched as his words sank in. The magnitude of the situation weighed heavily on my heart, the weight of both their lives now crushing my own.

" Why- why are you doing this to me " I cried like my whole world shattering in front of my eyes .

Haider revealed in his power, knowing he had trapped me, forcing me to choose between my loved ones and my own freedom.

" Because I love you " closing the distance between us while I move back in disgust .

The room seemed to close in around me, each second stretching into agony. Haider's unrelenting gaze burned into my soul, daring me to defy him. As terror and desperation threatened to consume me, I fought to gather whatever courage remained within.

" I- I don't love you please le- let me go " I beg folding hands .

His expression changed like a horrifying storm coming my way .

He grabbed my cheeks harshly forcing my face to be closer to him " You will marry me as I said or I will kill your family in front of your eyes " he said menacingly making me shiver in fear .

I felt trapped, my options limited. Haider's blackmail suffocated every glimmer of hope, leaving me with a wrenching choice. Marrying Haider meant a lifetime of despair and captivity, forever clinging to the shackles of his control. But to refuse his proposal would mean sealing the fate of my uncle and brother, an unbearable sacrifice tearing at the fibre of my being.

As Haider's twisted grin widened, my heart shattered with a mixture of dread and determination. In this dark, oppressive room, I understood that I had no choice but to face the devil himself. My decision would not come from submission, but from a fierce resolve to protect those I loved, regardless of the cost.

Though consumed by fear, a flicker of defiance ignited within me. I would face this wretched fate head-on, seeking a glimmer of hope even in the darkest moments. Haider may have had control over our lives, but the strength of my love for my family would guide me towards a hidden path, for I refused to let their lives be consumed by his malevolence.
