5.0

“Even a thief may have honor, and even a jinni may have a heart.”

The story follows aladdin who steals a ring that speaks to him and eventually lead him to a jinni and not any jinni but when of the most famous and dangerous ones

“You’re a—you’re a—”
Say it, boy. Demon of fire. Monster of smoke. Devil of sand and ash. Servant of Nardukha, Daughter of Ambadya, the Nameless, the Faceless, the Limitless. Slave of the Lamp. Jinni.
“. . . a girl!” he finishes”
Aladdin was funny and sweet and overprotective when to comes to zahra
The two started off as a master and a jenni and then the became good friends and then LOVE

“Loving someone is never wrong. And like you said, it’s not a choice. It just happens, and we’re all helpless in its power.”

I love everything about this story, the characters were all very well written, and the way zahra's past blend it with her present was very impressive
