"Life is a flight of Icarus, if you fly high; you burn, if you fly low you sink. Staying away from both ice and fire is near impossible. Decide what you're going to do, since you're already inside the labyrinth. Either; you can fly with me, I'll give you the wings of wax and feathers or you can wait here for the death to come. Ah, anyways I promise you no better chance at living, but at least, you'll die a free soul, isn't that better?
 Don't look at me like that, as if you read more than there is written, as if you can see beyond my face or beneath my eyes...no, stay away, there is no need to come closer. I feel nothing! I don't want to feel anything! 
Why do you laugh? What's funny? You don't believe I'm a monster? Fine, your problem; don't tell me I didn't warn you before.
Leave; run; hide; whatever! Just don't break my walls. It hurts to feel again, it hurts to cool off...I like burning, I like fire, just stay away, stay safe.
What have you done to me? You were my ace, my pawn, my weapon, why am I suddenly acting like your shield? Break this charm, break it right now... The last thing I want is to fall in love! Don't forget...not for a moment, that you're Icarus and I am your sun. Stay away, stay safe!" 
"A thing is not necessarily true because a man dies for it"
Oscar Wilde
A woman convicted for murdering her love... A man forsaken by his family.... Both with dark pasts, broken hearts and bitter souls, thrown together in to a battle of wits, egos, hearts and desires... Will they end up saving each other or dueling to death? After all life is a flight of Icarus, a moment of lost balance, a moment of ignorance is all between destiny and death.

"I got you something." He told her pulling away, while she watched him curiously until he pulled out a pandora bag. Her eyes widened at the necklace with an infinity symbol in crested with small little diamonds. "How you even afford this kari?" She questioned, unable to take her eyes off of it. "Shit, my savings." He rubbed the back of his head that possessed his starter loc twists. "That was so nice of you, you didn't have too." She smiled softly finally looking at him, "Can you put it on me?" He stood behind her and she moved her hair out of the way as he put it around her neck and clipped it back together. Her hand immediately went to it. "I'm never gone take it off." She promised him turning to face him. "I love you kari." "I love you too, hone. Til Infinity." --- When an unfortunate sequence of events suddenly separates two bestfriends, Dakari and Honesty, with no plausible reason, it's shakes up the world of the two inseparable individuals. With no goodbyes shared, Dakari was left feeling alone and heartbroken by the sudden disappearance of the only person outside of family that he cared for deeply. The outside world declared Dakari mad at the world, and he didn't think he could ever get over the missing void created by her absence. When honesty finds herself back where it all began, she discovers the hard way that Dakari no longer wants anything to do with her. The unexpected reunion rekindles unbearable memories of their deep connection and the painful separation that slowly but surely leads them back to each other. It's up to them to pick up the pieces of their broken friendship as they confront their past and face what's in store for their future, whether it's together or apart. They must decide if their love is strong enough to hurdle over the obstacles sent their way from every angle. Is true love worth fighting for no matter how long it takes?

Previous Title : Tum Jo Nahi Toh Kuch Bhi Nahi --- He sat emotionlessly, his gaze filled with anger as he looked at her. She met his eyes, confused and unable to decipher what was going on in his mind. The mantras echoed around them, the ceremony unfolding in slow motion. He went through the motions, following the priest's instructions, but his mind was far away, lost in a storm of resentment. "I can't believe you did this," he seethed inwardly. "I thought you were different, someone who could understand me, but I was wrong. I wanted to marry her, to build a life with her, but you destroyed everything. How could you stoop so low? She asked me to marry you for the sake of my family, for my father's happiness, but I can't. I will never marry someone like you." Suddenly, he stood up in the middle of the ceremony, his voice cutting through the mantras. "I can't go through with this marriage," he declared, leaving her shocked. ... She cried silently, trapped in her helplessness as he accused her of a betrayal she had never committed. All she had ever done was love him-deeply, unwaveringly. And that, she realized, was the gravest mistake of her life. Yet, despite the pain, she couldn't bring herself to hate him; her love for him was too profound. Join her on a journey where love speaks not in words but in silence. Discover how she finally receives the love she deserves, all without uttering a single word. For though she was mute, her eyes spoke volumes, revealing the depths of her heart. _________________________________ #1 Indianlovestory on 5.10.20 WINNER:- * Ist position YOURS CHOICE AWARDS * 2nd position in INFINITY AWARDS (Reader's choice) * Best emotional story in SWASAN FAMILY AWARDS ( 2nd ) * SWASAN NEWBIE AWARDS (consolation prize). _________________________________

Sanskar pinned her to a shelf blocking her way, his hand wrapping her waist and holding her tightly. Swara looked at this with wide eyes. "What are you doing, Sanku?"
