"I am sorry. I am so sorry sweetheart." He mumbled caressing her tear-stained cheek. He knew each word she said was a bitter truth he didn't want to hear.

If he was desperate for one chance from her then she was desperate for freedom as well. He knew imprisoning her in the name of this marriage wasn't right. He knew she was ready to live with him for more than six months till the contract will be ended keeping a stone over her fragile heart but the moment he confessed that even after the end of the contract he wouldn't let her go made her more desperate to get away from him as she saw no way out.

He had nothing to reply to her or say anything further. The sky roared once again making her flinch in her place. His eyes voluntarily moved around the room finding the mess he made a while ago. He was about to turn his attention to her when he stiffen watching blood on the ground.

His eyes snapped to her before he looked all over her body finding her feet injured. Hazel followed his gaze and then pain shoot up in her veins when she realized that to save him she stepped over the glass pieces. She hissed seeing her bloodied feet.

"What the fuck!" Without thinking twice Cyrus picked her up walking toward the bed. He placed her on the edge of the bed and instantly went to the bathroom to bring a first aid box. Hazel was still shedding tears she had no idea why she wasn't able to stop crying. It was like something in her wanted to cry loudly but she was holding herself back.

Cyrus came back and kneeled in front of her. He gently grabbed her injured feet and carefully started attending to it. Just when he was done with her one foot he went for the other but not before glancing at her face only to frown in worry.

"Sweetheart, does it hurt too much?" He questioned gently wiping the blood away. Hazel didn't reply to him only sniffled wiping her cheeks but more tears escaped her eyes.

"It will be alright just a little ok." He said applying for the medicine over her wounds. Hazel sobbed out and this made him go extremely gentle with her. Finally stopping himself from jumping to her he bandaged her feet and placed the first aid box on the floor beside him looking up at her who was still crying.

"Hazel, what happened? Did it hurt too much?" He said caressing her feet but Hazel only shook her head.

"Then? " He mumbled wiping her tears but Hazel burst out in tears crying loudly. This startled him he jumped on the bed beside her and pulled her against his chest.

Hugging her tightly he caressed her back but then he realized why she was crying. She was tried. She was tired of fighting with herself. With her emotions. He knew she was trying her best to not let out but he wanted her to cry her heart out.

Without exchanging any words he just closed his eyes feeling her head over his chest. Her sobbing frame got completely disappeared against his as he made sure to let her feel the warmth of his hug. It wasn't forced, it wasn't lustful, it wasn't hurtful. It was caring and warm.

Crying herself to sleep Cyrus felt her body being dropped all upon him. He looked down at her finding her sleeping on his chest. Sighing heavily he gently picked her up and laid her on the bed caressing her cheeks in the process.

Sitting beside her on the bed he stared at her swollen eyes and tear-stained cheeks. She sniffled in the sleep as well making him feel more messed up. Palming his head with both hands he closed his eyes once again trying to understand what should he do.

He knew she wants only one thing from him and that is to let her go but that's the only thing he can't give her. He can lay the whole world in front of her. He can wait an eternity for her to give him her consent. He can do anything for her to forgive him. The only thing he can't get himself to do was to let her go.
