"Why do you always do that?" he asked me, watching as I looked up at him. 
"Do what?" I questioned, confused. 
He shook his head, "Every time I compliment you, you refuse to even glance in my direction. Why?" 
I shrugged, "I guess I'm just not very good with compliments. They distract me." 
"They 'distract you'?" he raised an eyebrow. I nodded. 
"Yeah. It just repeats itself over and over in my head until I finally convince myself that you're wrong or you're lying," I explained, staring at my worn out shoes as I dug them into the ground, wanting nothing more than to just dig a hole and hide in it. 
"Look me in the eyes," he whispered and gently lifted my chin with his warm hand. My eyes met his. "And try to tell me I'm lying when I say that you're the most beautiful girl that I've ever met."

50 parts Complete Mature
A reflection. Do you like yours, love yours or hate yours? There's many people in this world who dislike theirs, not because of the physicality that they see in a mirror, but because they know what's lurking behind the eyes that stare. So much can be seen in yourself from your own pair of eyes, things that others don't seem to see. Do you know why that is? That's because no one knows you better than you know yourself. A pair of eyes could seem so kind, warm and innocent to the world, but only yourself could know the true darkness behind them. There's one person in this world who knows exactly what I'm talking about. He knows the infuriating, angering feeling of the painful suffering he experiences when his own eyes meet his reflection's. Deadly, severe, menacing: is what he sees. Everyone who looks into them simply see a bright pair of ocean eyes. Blue. That's all they see. But only himself knows he's drowning in the tidal waves of their deep ocean. And no one cares enough to notice, to help, or to save. Until her. She used to think fire was more murderous than ice. Little did she know, that would all change at first glance. She saw the eyes, she noticed their blue, she stared for a second too long, and now she knows that there's no going back. He'll claim her. ~If I take a step away from him, he takes a step closer to me. If I run, he'll find his way back.~ ~I'm trying my goddamned hardest to not act on the ache I'm feeling to place my lips on hers, just to have a little taste, because I don't want to appear as some sex-driven teenage boy who just wants to claim her body. Because I don't. I want to claim her heart.~ *Mature content: Strong language, aggressive behaviour, sexual content etc.* Note: Don't skip past the prologue. A bit of the dialogue or description in the first half of the book may seem slightly immature; I'll have to edit that when I get the chance. Started: 31/08/18 Completed: 02/04/19

They met for the right reasons but at the wrong time. She was just about to graduate from college, and he was already a successful CEO/Businessman who is ten years her senior. A city love like no other. Enter the world of Alecx and Tristan, brought together by fate, only to be separated by unexpected circumstances. Will there be a second chance for them when they meet again 9 years later? A story about chasing dreams, friendship and love.... "A love story that will make you swoon. Definitely a fun, entertaining and feel-good read. " - A Reader's Comment Excerpts: 1) I saw her hug one of the guys in that department and kissed him on the cheek. I don't really deal a lot with our employees. I am mostly either inside my office or in the boardroom conducting meetings, so I do not even know who this guy she is smitten with. Just seeing her do that caused a twinge of jealousy inside me. I barely know this girl and yet, she is making me feel something I have not felt before. 2) I gave him a dagger look and tried to get away from his hold, but he did not let me. Instead, he put both his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. Our faces are just inches away from each other. He was looking at me intently. My heart is beating so fast. I feel like I am going to melt from his gaze. "I am just messing with you. I am sorry. Forget about what I said. Just dance with me. For old time's sake." He smiled at me. I continued to look him straight in the eyes. "Why did I ever leave this amazing man in front of me?" I asked myself regretfully. I set aside all my inhibitions and placed both my arms around his neck. Even just for tonight, I will enjoy this moment. I rested my head on his shoulder and nuzzled my face on his neck. I hope we can stay like this forever.

Until they kill me or worse they make my fate same as her... ... But I can't let that happen ... I have to reveal the truth .... The truth which is hidden for many years... ... -------------------------------- Not only her but we also need to reveal the truth. What is the truth? Why someone's dream is becoming her nightmare? We have to find out about everything. -------------------------------- " I want to try something because in reality I don't think I have the guts to do it. Will you let me do it?" She tells me quietly and looks at me from under her lashes. A small pout on her pink lips. She is looking like a vision in the rain. Her damp hair is pulled on top of her head. Large eyes looking at me with so much innocence that it's impossible to look away from them. Her cheeks are flushed. Her pink lips are still holding the Pout. She is a vision. Perfectly made for only my eyes. Mine only. "You can do anything you want as long as it's not something which is going to hurt you." She stepped closer to me. She stood on her tiptoes to reach my height. Our noses are practically touching. "Are you gonna hurt me?" she whispered against my chin. "Never" "Good" Then suddenly her lips are on mine. --------------------------------

"why the fuck did you went on a date with him? he is not even your type!!" he growls. "so what? he is friendly and nice to me" I replied confidently. "NO, HE IS NOT NICE!!! he wants you because you're....beautiful" he said looking directly in my eyes! "Viaan! stop being so annoying...and let me go! he is waiting for me" I said. As I was about to leave, he held my hands and in a millisecond I was pinned to his car. I was shocked by this action of his. He never behaved like this but today he was in different mood. "What a-are you d-doing?" I said. We were so close that our lips were almost touching and then he bends towards my neck and kiss it. I swear that feeling was so amazing... I loved it but I didn't show it on my face, but then he looked at me with his dark brown eyes, and stared at me for a couple of seconds. "If you didn't leave for home right now! I will kiss the fuck out of you, until you become breathless" he said in his deep voice without breaking the eye contact. Honestly that was hot....but this is not the time for this. "And why are you suddenly so interested in my personal life? Are you jealous of Abhay?" I said without looking at him. "Do not try me! I said go home!!" I sensed that he is angry. "Oh yeah? don't try you? what will you do Mr. Raghuvanshi?" I said in a sarcastic way. To which he smirked. and said "don't ask for something you can't handle baby" What did he just say.....Baby? "I'm not your baby". "Are you sure?" he smirked again. Why the hell he's keep doing that. .........

"I'd buy you a drink" Someone whispers from behind me drawing me from my thoughts. I'm frozen in place and it's not because it's the same guy that was staring at me just a few moments ago no it's not...it's because I know that voice, well not technically but I do know the voice though. I smile trying to hide my blush. "I.. Umm" I stammer. "Com'on Chris you can't go on scaring pretty girls like this" That was definitely Joel. I blush. Like he just called me pretty. I'm definitely dreaming. Oh My Gosh, someone pinch me. "Scare!!"It sounds more like he's asking me. I just smile. "So where're your other baby brothers" I ask Christopher turning to face him. "Baby? I'm hurt" Joel says with his hand over his chest and I giggle.
