Unfitting

Unlike his sisters Emily and Katie, who had been pledged to African men as soon as they turned 18, Aaron Barre had dawdled through college in finding a union. Finally, his stepfather had impatiently pledged him to a distant cousin of the fabulously wealthy Al-Assaf clan, Fatima.

Married to a weak white male, Fatima had decided on a lifestyle of somewhat more liberation than many of her cousins, and Aaron and she now lived in London. And she'd gradually succumbed to a more ... haram ... lifestyle to cope.

And Aaron knew why, to his great shame. Because he was unfitting, as a husband, and as a mate. And he didn't know how to fix it without completely succumbing to decadence. He sighed, looking at the clock at work. Time to go home. Unhappy wife, unhappy life.
