Kasity :

I couldn't sleep. All I could think about was how I got into this mess. In this dangerous mess, from which I can't escape.

In the morning...

"Good morning." Alastair said as he walked past me, heading outside.

"We have approximately one day until Areson loses his mind and comes to kill me. Or something like that." he says as he smiles.

"As soon as I go back I'll deal with Areson for good." I answer.

We went outside and Alastair gestured me to sit down, because we had to talk.

"You once asked me if I have ever been in love." he started talking...

I remained silent.

"There was a woman." he continues...

"Oh God so that's why all this is happening?" I answer, not suprised.

"Well, I expect you to know about that feeling better than me." he responds. Caught me off guard.

"Can you keep a secret Alastair?" I tell him as my face becomes serious...

He gives me a questioning yet mysterious look.

"It depends." he says with a smirk.

I roll my eyes.

"You'd be surprised of how cold hearted I can actually become. To the point of leaving behind the person I love the most. So, you might want to think about what you said again." I say, narrowing my look, slightly looking away.

"Alright Ms. Psychopath I'll think about it." he says...

"She was my favourite person. "Passionate" is the word that describes her best. I met her six years ago, we had a business deal. Of course at first we were enemies, but she was mesmerising, made me fall in love, almost fail on my business deal. She was playing with me, but in the end, she fell prey to her own games and therefore fell in love." he said...

*Flashback, 6 years ago*

Alastair :

"Tell me what's your biggest fear Alastair..." She said as her silhouette approached me, coming out of the dark...

•Say it louder, say it louder
Who's gonna love you like me, like me?
Say it louder, say it louder
Who's gonna touch you like me, like me?•

"What's yours?" I asked her back...

"Mine is losing you." she slowly said as the moonlight illuminated her characteristics...

Said you wanna be good but you couldn't keep your composure
Said you wanna be good but you're begging me to come over
Come over•

"My biggest fear..." I start speaking as she approached me even more...

"My biggest fear is changing you." I answer as she stopped right in front of me, really close.

"Changing me?" she asks, giving me a questionable look.

I approach her...

"Do you want to hear something?" I say as my face approaches her ear...

"I love you, I want you, I don't want to lose you and I don't want to change you." I whisper.

"Oh damn, head over heels into me?" she asks playfully...

"Release your heart from that ice barrier and admit it." I continue...

At that moment, she looked me in the eyes and then kissed me, slowly, giving me the answer I needed.
