Chronicles of Laiyla and Majnun's Devotion

Previously

…The olive grove, once a sanctuary of their love, now felt like a tomb. The whispers had done their work. The wedge was driven deep. Their secret world, so carefully nurtured, lay shattered around them. Laiyla’s spirit, though battered, was not broken. A seed of defiance had been planted, watered by the injustice and the raw, aching loss of Qais. As she was led back to the village, her gaze swept over the dark, rustling leaves of the olive trees, a silent promise forming in her heart. She would not forget. She could not. The serpent’s tongue had spoken, but their love’s true song had yet to be silenced.
