Genre: Angst The series consists of three ONE SHOTS 1-(A man who hates) As the name indicates, it is the story of a man who faces the consequence of his blinding rage and hate.A very different concept and my favorite among the one shots. 2-(A man who loves) Sequel to the above OS, To what extent the love of a man can go? 3-(A woman who loves) When a woman loves, she loves with all of her and when she is betrayed, she strikes back the same way as they say, "hell hath no fury as a woman scorned". She proves them right to the T. _________________
