Aasia's cries echoed in anguish and desperation: "Release me! I refuse to indulge in this insanity... Spare me, I beg!" Najat shrieked with mad, poisonous rage.She'll carry out her plan, regardless of consequences, killing the one she holds if defied. "You won't leave this house alive unless you bring us the Crown Prince to save our properties." Aasia attempted to rise, propping herself on her knee, only to be shoved violently by Najat, sending Najat stumbling backward. Najat barely avoided falling by grasping the chair behind her, all while unleashing a barrage of vile insults upon Aasia. Najat's sanity snapped when she saw Aasia sprinting towards the door. She caught up to her, yanking her back by the hair and dragging her inside. Najat slapped Aasia forcefully, causing blood to gush from her mouth and nose. Then, she locked the door, hiding the key within her clothes, hissing defiantly. "Give me my grandson, and then do as you please." Aasia shrieked hysterically, pounding her face fiercely, almost extracting blood. "Where can I find you a grandson? Your son is dead, and I'm not pregnant! Let me go!" Najat shrieked in response, vigorously shaking her head, refusing to accept anything. "You won't leave. I've told you how to give me my grandson. Your life is the price!" Aasia shrieked wildly, hysterically scrambling to find a way out of the house and away from the insane this woman's grasp. "There's no grandson! I won't commit sin for you. What you're asking is f*******n. Leave me alone!" Her mother-in-law gazed at her with a haunting stare, instilling dread, whispering ominous threats. "This is your decision." Aasia cowered, her entire being quivering, words faltering amid overwhelming terror. "What... what does it mean?! Ahh! Oh no!" "Discuss your impressions of this novel excerpt." Follow...
