Love was never part of the contract… but neither was betrayal.
When Crystal’s father dies, he leaves behind more than grief, he leaves her a debt of 24 million dirhams owed to the ruthless Al-Fayad empire. Forced to leave her life in Morocco, Crystal becomes a factory worker in Dubai, believing hard work is her only way out.
But her fate takes a darker turn.
Summoned by the cold, terminally ill Sultan Al-Fayad, she’s given a cruel choice, to remain a worker for life, or marry his golden son, Amir, to repay the debt faster. Desperate, broken, and betrayed, Crystal becomes a wife in name and a prisoner in reality.
But amid the walls of her new prison, another pair of eyes finds her, Ahmad Al-Fayad, the stoic and overlooked twin. He doesn’t know her story. He only knows her eyes won’t leave him alone.
As secrets unravel and passion brews, Crystal is torn between two brothers, a contract that controls her, and a desire that could destroy everything.
Will love free her or trap her even deeper into a forbidden love that refuses to stay hidden?
