7--Our Little Secret🤞🏻

Zarek was looking at Lylah, his eyes searching hers, for any hint, a hint that she was just joking. But no, they were sincere. He closed his eyes for a few seconds, inhaling deeply.

Lylah was waiting for him to speak first. She wanted him to say something, anything. She was unsure of what he'll do or say. But he did nothing. He was just standing there, with eyes closed.

Before she could have thought about anything else to say, he turns around. She was taken aback by this move of his and just stood there confused.

Zarek without even giving a last glance, walks out of the store with long strides. He was walking so fast as if he couldn't breathe there. His face all red, fuming with anger.

That's why they told me to not come here... Of course I tried so hard, but here I am...
The only person I met here is of that stupid Royal bloodline...

Lylah couldn't contemplate what just happened, but as soon as she realises, she ran towards him.

"ZAREK... stop...wait, listen to me..... Zarek... " She tries to stop him but it feels like he can't hear her.

They are the reason, he died...
He wanted me to come to Nyxoria to stay with him but.... Now nothing can happen....
Shit... I took that oath to stay away from all Ravenwoods, just yesterday and she made me broke it already....
But...
It's not even her fault....
He even wanted me to meet her..

He had already walked half a mile till then, when she finally reached to him. She grips his hand and turns him around, while panting heavily from all the running.

He gets a little startled by her actions but soon his face changes from that of shock to anger. He looks at her,the feeling of betrayal, in his eyes was evident.

Lylah tries to speak but he cuts her before she could say anything.

"No... No need for any explanation. I don't need any of those bullshits. Just leave me alone." He says slowly, emphasising more on the word alone.

He pulls out his hand from her grip and turns back around, continuing on his way.

Why God why...
Why did we met... Ughh..
Why does she have to be a Ravenwood...
The family who made me an orphan...
Aaahhhhh....

Lylah sighs and again moves towards him this time grabbing him whole, from his waist, to lift him around like she used to do with Sasha, but fails miserably. She tries to lift him but couldn't even budge him slightly.

On the other hand, Zarek just froze. He couldn't comprehend what she just did. He looks below, her small hands gripping him around.

Lylah tries to lift him again, but nothing happens. So finally she starts to move around him, while still holding him, until she gets in front of him.

Slowly she raises her head to look at him, thinking he'll make fun of her strength. But when her eyes met his, they had a very strange emotion in them. His eyes were darker then before.

I should've known the moment she told me her name... Lylah...
How did I miss it..
Why I even came behind her...
Why does she affect me so much

Suddenly, Zarek pushes her away, his eyes going back to normal, his face showing no emotions.

"What the hell... What do you think you are doing?" Zarek shouts at her.
