Everything was happening so fast. His mom has already fixed the date of the wedding. He'll be married in the next fifteen days.Hamza had requested his mom to keep the wedding private with close family and friends. Though he hadn't told his mom. But because of the vipers, he needs to take good security measures.His mom was busy with preparations. Hafsa showed no interest as she barely left her room.Batool has strictly warned Hamza not to visit Hooriya or to see her before the wedding. Though he wasn't going to see her. When you put restrictions on something, that thing becomes a lot more alluring.Hooriya was in her room as Shiza showed her dresses after dresses online. Shiza had already ordered four dresses for her which she could wear after the wedding as she would be a newlywed bride.Hamza was taking care of all the expenses. When Shiza left, Hooriya sighed. She couldn't help but think about her parents.How things would've been if she had parents.Thankfully, Hooriya has Shiza
She couldn't sleep the whole night. She kept tossing and turning. Whenever she tried to close her eyes his obsidian eyes would flash in her head and she couldn't help but think about him, just like that the whole night passed with open eyes.The next morning Shiza was there at the door banging like a crazy buffoon. Hooriya groggily got out of the bed as she padded to the door and unlocked it, she barely even opened the door before the energetic girl was barging into the room."Girl. It's your wedding tonight." Shiza chirped happily as Hooriya rubbed her eyes to get rid of the tiredness. Grabbing her shoulders Shiza gave her a rough yank. "Wake up, sleepy head. Good morning, bride. Hooriya. Hooriya. Say something. Hooriya." Hooriya's eyes were wide now with all the rough rattling as she stared at Shiza weirdly."You look like a crazy person," Hooriya murmured lazily."AHhhhhhh!" Shiza let out a shrill squeal which caused Hooriya to flinch back badly as she covered her ears to save h
The ride back to his mansion was silent. Hooriya was all teary-eyed after saying her goodbyes to Shiza and Salaar. Shiza was crying too but she threatened Hooriya not to cry as it would ruin her makeup.Hamza helped her into the car as he took the driver's seat. Soft music played in the car and there was a smell of roses surrounding them even in the car."Don't worry, I'll drop you at Shiza's place as many times as you want," He said gently and she sniffed.She was tempted to ask him if he would let her live at Shiza's place two to three days a week but she didn't utter those stupid words. He would only think that she had lost her mind."We are here," He said and she raised her eyes to look at the huge gates that opened as he drove into the private property. There were acres of land and in the midst of it was a huge Royal looking mansion. Her jaw might be on the floor where her feet were because she was too stunned and awestruck.Did she marry the king or some sort of a royal person?
He moved back as he let go of her hands. She noticed he took out his phone and clicked her picture. She looked up at him startled with cherry lips slightly parted as he clicked another picture.He didn't say anything about why he took her pictures. "You can change if you want," He said and she gave him a quick nod, still confused.Hamza got off the bed as he walked to the walk-in closet and grabbed his nightwear and trekked into the ensuite bathroom.Hooriya sat on the edge of the bed as she began to undo the pins on her head.A few minutes later the door opened and her eyes whipped up in his direction. He was wearing sweats with a loose t-shirt.He looked at her and she immediately dropped her gaze. This was the first time she saw him in such clothes.He walked up to her. His hair was slightly wet as if he had taken a shower and here she hadn't even gotten rid of all the pins in her veil and hair.She was mercilessly pulling at the pin when her hands halted feeling his warm palms hov
Hooriya stirred in her sleep as the bright light on her eyelids woke her up. She groggily opened her eyes and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling. As soon as the scent of roses wafted through her nose, she recalled the happenings.She was married.She was in Hamza's room.She looked to her left and the bed was empty. The sheets were neat and clean. She blinked slowly as she sat up properly. Her gaze instantly fell on the huge form of the man laying on the couch. She blinked at him. Half of his legs were hanging from the edge. He was just too big for the small couch.He looked so uncomfortable. She couldn't help but recall last night. That intimate moment in the closet and then him bringing food for her.She was hungry no doubt and they ate in calming silence. She was aware of how he kept glancing at her while she continued to stare at the bed worriedly.He was the one who said that he would sleep on the couch and she can take the bed. Her heart had done a wild pitter patter at his cons
Liar.He had said that he would be back in a day or two but she couldn't help but think how he mentioned a day or two and look at him. Gone for four days now.It was not that she cared but this was so careless of him. He didn't even call Aunt Batool to inform her about his whereabouts. Hooriya got to know about his well-being through Aunt Batool who had received Farhan's call. He informed his aunt that Hamza was fine and the workload was too much for him to even make a call.Hooriya didn't care much that he didn't call her. He must be busy no doubt and it wasn't like she was expecting a call from him. Not at all.But she was truly worried about him because she didn't know if he went for his business work or the Mafia work. She didn't want to think about it but the slightest thought that she married a mafia king in disguise of a wealthy businessman and now an emerging politician was crazy enough to drive her down the lane of overthinking.Aunt Batool was very angry at Hamza for leavin
"You're going, Hooriya?" Batool asked as Hooriya nodded her head and made her way to Batool who hugged her lightly and gave a kiss on her forehead."Study hard my daughter. May you get great success," Batool said lovingly and Hooriya smiled, kissing the back of her hand.She made her way out where Akram was waiting for her along with the driver.Akram opened the door for her as she got into the car and thanked him. "He will drop you inside the university and will pick you up at the exact time. He will be there before your last class ends." Akram assured her as she bobbed her head, being grateful.She reached the University on time and she met Shiza at the entrance. Shiza was waiting for her. Both the girls have been in contact through the phone. They talk nonstop for hours on the calls.Shiza pulled Hooriya in a tight hug, making her chuckle. "Miss me?" Hooriya asked while wiggling her brows just the way Shiza often did."So much," Shiza chirped as they walked inside."When is Hamza b
Hooriya settled down on the couch. She has made up her mind that she would sleep on the couch. Hamza told Batool that he had returned just as his work finished there. And he looked really tired. He needed a lot of rest.She knew once he found her awake he would threaten her to sleep on the bed so she lay down on the couch and waited for him to come back. She was small so she was comfortable even on the couch.Within a few minutes, she heard footsteps and the door opened. She abruptly shut her eyes and normalized her breathing pretending to be asleep.She felt his presence in the room. And then she heard the door closing. He was in the restroom. She peeked at the door and sighed. She just hoped he would sleep on the bed without creating a ruckus.He was back and then she felt his eyes on her. She knew he was close. Her eyes shot open in surprise when she felt his arms snaking under her as he picked her up in a bridal style."W...what are you doing?" She stammered, placing her hand on h
