Forced marriage ✭

“They can say Bozorg Agha forced this marriage, but the truth is i wouldn’t let you go even if the whole city begged me to. The night they put the ring on your finger, I swore to myself... whether you love me or not, you will never belong to another man again."

Your parents’ voices trembled like candle flames in the dark, carrying the weight of a curse. Bozorg Agha’s offer was not an offer at all—it was a chain, cold and heavy. Marry Ghobad, or Farhad’s blood will stain the streets. That night, the world felt smaller; the walls of your home pressed in, and the love in your heart became a secret you buried like a forbidden poem.

NOTE:

Ghobad’s first marriage was to Shirin, a union built on duty, not love. Bozorg Agha wanted an heir, and Shirin was supposed to give him one—but when it became clear she couldn’t conceive, the marriage fell apart. Shirin’s heart broke; she stayed in love with Ghobad even as he walked away without a second thought. The family then forced a new plan—Shahrzad. Her family agreed to the marriage under the shadow of a threat: if she refused, the man she loved, Farhad, would die. Unlike with Shirin, something shifted in Ghobad; what began as another obligation turned into an obsessive, possessive love.
