Fragment of Fragrance

A beautiful life, shattered by a single choice. A silence that holds the echo of a scream. Chimambom was nineteen, beautiful, and brilliant, with a future as bright as her smile. When a prince’s kiss promised a fairy tale, she believed him. But that kiss was not a beginning; it was the key to a gilded cage. Seduced, betrayed, and discarded by the very power that promised to love her, Chimambom’s world collapses into a nightmare of betrayal, imprisonment, and unspeakable loss. Stripped of her family, her freedom, and her future, she is left with nothing but the shattered fragments of her former self. This is her story. A raw and unflinching testimony of a girl who learnt that beauty can be a curse, love can be a weapon, and the deepest wounds are inflicted in silence. But from the ashes of a stolen life, a new voice will rise—one that will turn a silent scream into a beacon of warning and wisdom for a generation. A searing tale of innocence betrayed and a resilience forged in fire.
