His fingers tighten on my waist, tilting me back slightly, breath hot against my neck. "Mistakes don't feel like that," he says, his eyes never leaving mine. "You don't know me," I fire back. "You don't get to talk like you do." "No," he chuckles darkly, "but I will very soon." "We were drunk, dizzy... it meant nothing. Don't take it seriously, because I won't." "You can tell yourself that," he growls, stepping closer, "but I see it in you... you can't hide how much you want me." "I'm already inked into you," he husks. "Body. Mind. Soul." I tilt my head back, eyes fluttering shut, an unholy sound escaping me. "Deeper than you think." ⋯ ♛ ⋯ 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕. 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒔𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒌. 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒃𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒓𝒆𝒇𝒖𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒍𝒆𝒕 𝒈𝒐.

He'll find a way-" "Your husband?" His voice is so low, so calm, like he's enjoying this. "He won't come for you. You know why?" I freeze. My lips part, but no words come. He leans down, bending himself over me. He reaches up, brushing a strand of hair from my face. "Because he gave you to me," he says, his voice soft and dangerous. The world tilts. My lungs seize. My heart stops. I can't breathe. "W-What...?" I back away instinctively, but there's nowhere to go. "N-no," I whisper, the words broken. "N-no, that's not true... R-Ranveer wouldn't..." His eyes darken, glinting with dark satisfaction. "He gave you to me, Aadhya," he repeats slowly, savoring each word. "Every. Single. Inch. Of. You." ════⋆⋅☆⋅⋆════ 𝑻𝒘𝒐 𝒎𝒆𝒏. 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒈𝒆.
