The rain pelted the old glass window of a hotel on the outskirts of the city, causing time to stand still as he began speaking.
Long ago there was a prince...
He shared the tale of a young Egyptian, born in the late 1700s, an arranged marriage, an eventual love that was all-consuming-of a difficult pregnancy, an impossible birth, and the deaths of both mother and child. The unimaginable pain and grief that followed, as well as a tomb built into a cliffside in an undisclosed location in Cairo.
He spoke about the death of a King, an inheritance of FIVE STONES, and how each one offered a unique chance for redemption. The stones were so powerful that many, including the Nazi regime, went to huge lengths to possess them. As he finished, Alaa added one final detail: I am the man in the story. I am here because of one of those stones.
And that is when I thought he was a madman! But once the proof started stacking up in his favor, I came to believe. I couldn't deny the truth. Reincarnation wasn't just a theory any longer.
He'd lived and endured several lifetimes before winding up in front of me.
How far would you go to be with your soulmate? How far had he gone? Where had he been, what had he seen, and how was it possible? How many times had we met and fallen in love?
This is a story of an ordinary woman living in England who meets an extraordinary man in 2019. The rest is history-beautiful magical realism at its best; a timeless true romance.
