Tenerife Sea

Prologue

"Out of all the things I wish I never did, loving you is one of them. There is only so much I can take", I whispered in a voice filled with sorrow.

"Don't! Don't do this, Kim. I need you in my life. You have to give me a chance. Atleast one chance. Please!" His pained expression created a havoc in my broken heart.

"Its a little to late now, Noah. I-I am. I-I will now try to move on." I gave him one of my fake smiles. Something flickered in his green eyes. Pain. Regret. Guilt. I couldn't place the emotion. The feeling of emptiness was overpowering me. The pouring rain provided a beautiful camouflage to my tear-stained face.

Even under the heavy rain, he looked mesmerising. I sighed to myself sadly. This will be the last time I'll look at him like this. It's high time I move on. I took a deep breath preparing myself to say the words I wanted to tell him.

"Goodbye Noah. I hope you get all the best things in life".

I was shocked to see him smirking at me. His green eyes turned  a shade darker.
"Do you think I'll let you walk away like this? So easily, without even trying? Huh! You are mine, Kimberly Chloe Grant. You became mine since that fateful day when you were paired as my partner in the wedding. Look at us now. History is repeating itself." He started taking slow steps in my direction.

One look at his green orbs and I was paralysed. I couldn't move even though I desperately wanted to. It was as if time stopped on its own accord. Just him and me, looking at each other.

His strong arms encircled me as he pulled me towards him with a harsh tug. His deep voice whispering smoothly in my ear "I will make you love me again sweetheart".

His warm breath fanning on my neck made me shiver. He bit my earlobe gently as he tightened his hold on me. "You are mine for eternity, Kim. And I don't like seeing someone else having what's mine".

Kimberly Chloe Grant, a 27 year old Cardiac surgeon. Her caring, understanding nature and bright smile could make anyone happy. She is a hopeless romantic who believes in destined fairytales and happily ever after. Her definition of love is completely different from that of her two best friends Natasha and Megan.

Kimberly has been loving Noah ever since she got to know the meaning of the word LOVE. But loving him for 20 years without having the same feelings reciprocated has taken a toll on her. She desperately wants to move on and forget him forever.

Noah Jacob Clayton, a 30 year old pop sensation. He is the perfect definition of a prince charming. He is the kind of guy you will take home to meet your mom. The one whom your mom will accept without any hesitation. He is a complete gentleman with a mega watt smile worth dying for. But his heart was broken by the only girl he ever loved. And he swore not to love ever again.

Noah has always been completely oblivious to Kimberly's feelings for him. He always supressed his own. And made himself believe that she was nothing more than a close family friend. But when he realises that She is the one for him, Will he be able to let her go?

She is the broken and tired moth, who needs time to heal and forget.

He is the flame, which burned her. But is now hell bent on making her his.

Will Kimberly and Noah's eternal love succeed?

Or

Will it leave nothing but ashes behind?
