I agree with everything you said! I actually was shipping Kamran and Huda more than Cyrus and Alizeh hehe. Kamran did get on my nerves alot, but I think his arrogance is an interesting flaw considering that he was raised by his grandfather who was not the most nicest person around. So it makes sense for his character to come off as condescending and rude at times-not justifying his behavior though especially how he gets hot and cold for Alizeh whenever she does something he doesn't like. I feel like he likes the idea of Alizeh ie an "otherworldly beautiful queen" rather than an actual person. With that said, Kamran does have some redeeming qualities like how in the first book he stood up for Alizeh when she was getting abused and how in the recent book, he was upset at the idea that Ms. Huda might have gotten hit before when she was confronted by Cyrus's mom. Ms. Huda is so precious! I want her to have the best and I see the enemies to lovers trope Mafi sprinkled in their banter. Hopefully, Ms. Huda changes Kamran for the better and Kamran appreciates Ms. Huda for who she is. Loved Cyrus and Alizeh-can't wait for more of them. And Hazan is the GOAT!
Yes, I completely agree, haha! You make great points with Kamran! I think Mafi did a good job with the character dynamics here, whereas in a lot of recent fiction it leans too heavily in other areas.
