~The flame that burns so hot in him can only be tamed by the union of two souls that are fire and ice~

The first time he sees her as his saviour and can't seem to stop thinking about her. He knows he can't get involved with a girl again, especially a doctor, but why is it that no matter how much he denies her, his heart craves her just as much? Her blue orbs seem to entrance him into a spell that hasn't been cast on him by another, the waves on her back cascade like a waterfall of the finest coffee and her red lips draw him in like a moth to a flame. How can he deny her when his body craves her so fiercely?

He came into her life as just another patient, but this particular one caught her eye. She had sworn off relationships after the tragic incident 2 years ago that cost her a family member, but why can she not resist this man? He is after all just another man. But his dark brown locks make her want to run her hands through them and his green eyes mesmerize her and provide her a sense of tranquility. How can the most feared business man of Manhattan make her feel so safe? Why isn't she afraid of him or the warnings that tell her to be cautious? She has many questions but no answers. 

Both their fates will be entwined by an incident that will leave an impact on them. Many secrets will be unraveled and things that should've stayed hidden will come out in the open. Ignorance is bliss.
Join the two in this story about love, trust, betrayal and death.

Emalia Our friendship had only lasted a month, then he was gone. I accepted it and moved on with my life having greater things to worry about. Suddenly after one year he comes back proposing, literally, a ridiculous offer that I can't refuse. Alaric A year ago I had to leave her. It's been 365 days and everyday I've lived it with the purpose of making my world safe enough for her. Enemies are still out there but I have full intention of using every resource and power available to protect her so now I've come to collect her. With a marriage contract in hand and 365 million dollars to convince her, I make her on offer she can't refuse. ⋆*・゚:⋆*・゚☾ ⋆*・゚:⋆*・゚☾ ⋆*・゚:⋆*・゚ Alaric's POV "Make sure you stay inside the lines." She orders me well flipping to the next page of her magazine. I look up, ready to glare at her, only to find she's happily humming, her eyes skimming the page. Unable to control myself, I see my body moving to do what she's asked. "What color did you say you want?" I ask, looking at the shit ton of nail polishes. She draws her eyes away from the magazine to meet mine. I find that I love the feel of her eyes on me; find myself doing what she wants simply to make her happy. She looks at the colors and I look at her. She brings the pink one "What do you think?" I nod in agreement taking it from her, lingering my fingers on her's for longer then needed. I sit on the coffee table, opposite of her, bringing her foot to my lap.
