"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.

In the quiet corners of my heart, I kept a secret garden-a fragile bloom of love that I tended with care. It was for someone who never truly belonged there. His touch was like frost on petals, beautiful yet cold. His words, sweet as honey, dripped with deception. I loved him with a fervour that blinded me to the truth sometimes love is a cruel mirage. But as the seasons changed, so did my perception, revealing the fault lines of our mismatched souls. He was the wrong puzzle piece, forcing himself into spaces where he didn't fit. And I, foolishly, tried to mould myself to his edges. The pain of loving the wrong person is a silent ache-an ache that gnaws at your spirit, eroding the very essence of who you are. It's the realisation that you've been watering a barren tree, hoping for blossoms that will never come. Yet, I clung to him, desperate for validation, afraid of the void that would follow if I let go. But life has a way of surprising us. In the quiet aftermath of heartbreak, when tears blurred my vision, I stumbled upon a different kind of love. It wasn't loud or tempestuous; it was a gentle whisper-a warm breeze that carried away the debris of shattered dreams. 𝓓𝓮𝓿 appeared like a sunrise after a storm, illuminating the corners of my wounded heart. He was the right puzzle piece missing half of my soul. His laughter was a melody that resonated with mine, and his touch ignited constellations within me. We built a love that didn't need mending, for it was whole from the start. In his arms, I found solace, and in his eyes, I glimpsed eternity. The pain of loving the wrong person prepared me for the miracle of finding the right one. It taught me that scars can heal, and broken hearts can bloom anew. Now, as I stand on the threshold of forever, hand in hand with the one who fits seamlessly into my existence, I honour the past wrong turns, the tears, and the silent battles. For they led me to this love that feels like coming home.

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?" She looked up at him, her heart beating inside fastly. "Stop calling me that, Or you will regret it!" He said, looking at her coldly. She grinned widely. "I will call that only, Sankuuu!" She said with a cheesy smile, stretching it. "Stop it! I am warning you, Little Bak-bak!" He muttered, bringing his face closer. She gulped a little in nervousness but she didn't show it to him. She shook her head with a teasing smile playing on her lips. On the other hand, she twisted her fingers in nervousness. He tightened his grip around her in warning. "Sanku! Sanku! Sankuuu!

"𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶, 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴. It would mean neglecting my parents who have loved and cared for me for the last 23 years." I can't let her go. I love her too much. "Your parents might have loved and cared for you for 23 years, but that doesn't change the fact that I care and want you more than anything in this world," I say, my voice intense and filled with passion. "What we share is stronger than any societal or familial ties. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦, and I'm not letting anything or anyone come between us." Her voice is laced with anger and defiance as she asks me."You want me to 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂? 𝑩𝒖𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒅𝒐 𝒊𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒆?" I look at her, my eyes narrowing slightly, but my voice remains frustrated."If that's what it takes," I answer firmly, my determination unwavering.

The shock of the sudden gesture steals her breath away, and her body stiffens for a moment before melting into mine. Our mouths move together in a fierce, unbridled dance, our lips and tongues tangling in a feverish embrace. I break the kiss, reluctantly pulling away from her. "𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐦𝐞.
