❝My love will drown you to the depths of the sea.❞
Furat bin Kiyan, the fleet admiral of Al Andalus, is a spy and a rebel on a mission to kill the caliph of Cordoba and claim the throne for himself. But finds himself in trouble at the hands of Rahaf...
Where do you run away to if I follow you If everything you know I already knew Were I your shadow chasing after you Were I a cloak of darkness in the light surrounding you
Say my promises are lies spun to deceive you Say the venom in vial is meant to kill you Will you draw your sword to pierce my heart through Or will the dagger of my love finally stab you
❝My love will drown you to the depths of the sea.❞

author's note ━━━━━━━━━━
Before you proceed, PLEASE NOTE THAT:
• This book is set during the Umayyad Caliphate of Cordoba but is not inspired from any real life events of the caliphs or the caliphate. The story is purely fictional and might not follow any particular rules of that time.
• The characters in the book are Muslims, but represent Islam in no perfect sense, so shall not be judged. The story contains many dark themes, villainy and deceit, with characters who defy true values of the religion rather than adhering to them. Do NOT mistake or equate their gray morals with anything related to Islam or Muslims.
• Your opinion is welcomed, but any hate is not. You can leave the story at any point if you do not find it to be your cup of tea. But please refrain from advising me or criticizing me over anything that you do not understand or like. This will not make me do it any differently.
• The credits for the photos and quotes/poems used in the book go to their original owners.
Happy Reading (:
