Trigger

Sonia

He was my secret crush, the one man I wanted and couldn’t have.

Because he was my cousin, though not by blood, and my family wouldn’t be happy.

I tried to forget him while I was away, but nobody else compared.

If anything, the distance only made me long for him more.

So, now I was a woman on a mission.

Nothing was going to stop me from getting the man of my dreams.

My family loved me; they’d understand eventually. Wouldn’t they?

Romi

My feelings for her went against all the codes I held dear.

I protected her from afar, ensuring she was safe and keeping all other men away.

I yearned for her, yet she could never be mine.

She was my secret obsession, the only woman I wanted but could never have.

My love for her could tear our family apart; it might even be the death of me.

I could cope while she was away, but now she was coming home, thoughts of her consumed me.

I needed to stay away, but how can I when her very essence pulled me to her?

Can Romi and Sonia overcome the obstacles in their way, or will their forbidden love be forever doomed?
