Chapter 67 :



Damn this love. It hurts so much that I felt like taking out my heart and ripping it off into pieces.

My heart was breaking each second while I was looking at her. After the sex, I was feeling too low and pained that I had to leave my doll behind just to fight against someone, or some people. Yes, they included her biggest enemy, the one responsible for her nightmares and panic attacks. I knew she wanted to kill him but the situation isn't in the way where I can allow her to get involved in.

I saw the way shock and worry was etched on her face when I had told her about the war. Later on my heart broke when she hugged me and I didn't fail to notice her puffed face. I knew she had cried and she was crying from inside too when she was standing infront of me. Her moist eyes, vulnerable voice and weak physique, everything was like a torture for me because I couldn't see her like that. She means a lot to me.

But as I had promised, I'll go back to her. I'll come back alive—was what I had promised but I wasn't sure whether it'd be my soul or my body. Even if I happen to die, I just hope she'll stay happy, be it alone or with someone she chooses for herself. Yes it hurts to think about her with some other man as her husband but that's how reality works. Love was a cliché to me but now, it ethereal. I know that because I'm in love.

I wanted to run back to her after I had walked out of the room because I had heard her sobs buy I couldn't. Sometimes turning back ruins evrything and it's not the time to let things get ruined because they'll mainly fall on her. And I won't let that happen till I'm alive.

"Sir the weapons are ready", I heard Youngjae speaking, bringing me out of my thoughts.

I nodded mindlessly.

"Don't stay distracted Arnav. Remember you need to fight, even if not for anyone else but your wife. Remember your promise", Ren said, patting my shoulders.

I nodded again before standing up from my chair and walked out of the room.

This war is going to last long and its impact is going to keep me away from my wife for more than twenty days.

I need to focus.

"When does the war start?", I asked Rehan who was following me from behind.

"The day after tomorrow at afternoon 5:30 we'll assemble at War Hall III", he replied as I nodded.

"What about Ajay Singh Rathore?"

"He's plotting backup plans for our warehouses and his son is tracking all the underground pathways for the war. Zach is very powerful so we need to be cautious. He never does anything on his own yet he wins."

I scoffed, "Let him win against some mere mobs and gangsters. It's against me this time and I will bring his death", I gritted, anger bubbling inside my chest.

"The jet is ready. We'll land in the war field located near Monowi Nebraska. Since it's US so it'll be an unbiased war", he informed.

I nodded, the unsettling feeling inside me of leaving Anika behind like that was eating me out.

Dear Rooh,

Take care of yourself. We have been bestfriends for really long and I can't be more lucky than that. I don't have time to elaborate everything and unfortunately I can't even thank you properly. Remember your ex, the one with whom you used to stay in Paris while we both used to stay together? Don't ask him to track me. I know he's a professional hacker but please just don't. Hope you stay happy with your boyfriend, marry him and have a nice family. I'm leaving and I don't know where I'm going. Just stay happy and healthy without me. I'm sorry. I love you. I'll miss you.
