On the brink of a life that seemed too dull to excite her, amidst the chaos of the insurgency that threatened not just her happiness, but the little she had as a world; Maryam Bukar Ibrahim seemed to battle more wars than her 16 years old and autistic brain could handle. 

It became too much to bear, too much grief for her heart to take and a commitment her innocent yet frail body could endure. As if that wasn’t enough, destiny found a way of getting her married to a soldier, at the brink of her father’s death and the last words he pronounced were of her becoming Mrs. Na’im Bolori. 

For Captain Na’im Bolori, marriage was the last thing he thought for his life. He was the prince of the Kingdom of Maiduguri and suffering from an unmentioned illness broke more of his engagements than he cared to count. Being a soldier was his lifetime dream, yet rescuing a dying father only to get him married to his weird and two colored eyes daughter was something he had never imagined. 

He took her home not because he wanted, not because he was ever going to accept the so called marriage, between, she was only 16 years old! But destiny decided to play with his heart and test how capable he was of controlling himself and protecting the ones he loved. As said, When A Soldier Loves...He Kills To Protect.

When A Soldier Loves

<p>"He hates me now, Ammi," she had always referred to her as Ammi, since the day Dr Summayah called and Fatima Zarah was there with her kids and she heard them calling her that. It was easier than calling her Dr Summayah, which was a bit long for her and when they spoke on the phone with her daughter, they all seemed to be a warm and lovely family. </p>

<p>"Who? Na'im? There's no way someone that loves you the way he did will just wake up one day and hate you, Maryam. Have you done something to him?" She asked and Maryam vehemently shook her head. Why was it that everyone thought she had done something to him? This was the same thing Intisar had asked her when she had told them about what he did to her and she asked her if she had done something to him. </p>
