His heart twisted painfully. He cupped her cheek with his free hand, eyes wide with a flicker of panic.
"I'm so sorry," he rasped, his voice breaking. "Did I hurt you?"
Her lips curved into a faint, sorrowful smile that pierced him deeper than any...
"You made me feel like I belonged somewhere," I said. "And then I saw who you truly were. Not just a CEO, not just the man who kissed me. But someone who lives in blood, threats, and secrets. I don't know what to feel, Yuvan."
He came, stood behind me, close but not touching. "What if I told you I wanted to be better for you? That I never wanted you to see that side of me?"
I turned around slowly, my voice colder now. "Then why the hell did you let me?"
He looked at me for a long moment.
Then said quietly, "Because I'm a coward when it comes to you."
"Leave, Tonight, I want to sleep without chaos. Without a mafia on my bed. Without twisted confessions."
His voice was low as he responded. "I won't."
The air between us felt thick-like the weight of everything unspoken had finally settled, pressing against my chest. I stood there, my body wrapped in nothing but a bathrobe and defiance.
"Hate me," Yuvan said, voice low and husky, the ghost of a smile tugging at his lips. "But don't tell me to leave you, it will kill me love."
