"There's something you should know" he mumbled. My brown eyes squinted as I tried to figure out what he said. "...Ehh?" having given up, I cocked my head to the side.

"So actually... I'm in the mafia" he said more clearly. Terror filled my veins as his words registered. "Ophelia?" he responded and stepped towards me. "S-s-stay back". My ears filled with the sound of my frantic heart beat. My mind telling me to run in the opposite direction. Then I ran, as fast as I could to get away from him.

Well that's probably how everyone imagined it went down, well sike!!!!! This is really what went down...

Want to hit the dance floor again? He has the biggest smile on his face, I have to smile with him. Excuse me, I want to cut in. My eyes get as big as saucers. I dont want to dance with a stranger, even if he is so damn cute. I dont think so, my lady and I are spending the night together. Wow Charley is acting all protective, I havent seen this side of him before. I didnt ask you. I am telling you. This guy is being a jerk. He takes my hand and pulls me toward him. I surprised myself and shoved him back, knocking him off balance for a minute. I am not dancing with you sir, I am dancing with my friend and dont touch me like that. The look on this guys face was one that could kill. You do as you are told, and you will dance with me. Youre funny, because I dont do what you want, I do what I want.

There are a lot of girls here, find one of them that want to dance with you. You are dancing with me now. He gabs me for the second time, I am getting pissed. He needs to learn a lesson. In one swift movement I make a fist and punch him right in the face. You will not touch me, that is final. You are feisty, but you are not strong enough to stop me. One more time he reaches for me, he wont learn. I take his arm roughly and shove it away from me. Giving him a look of disgust. Charley lets go home now please. We were leaving as fast as we could when who gets in the way? The man from the store.

"Why are you having my painting in your room?" I asked shifting my gaze a little from the beautiful painting of me, towards him who was standing behind me with his hands in his pockets before looking back at the sketch. I could feel his breath on my neck as he was standing closer to me. "Because, I didn't want to feel alone and you, keep me sane." He husked in my ear making goosebumps erupt on my skin. I turned a little and looked up at him craning my neck, to look at him who was already looking at me with so much of love and adoration as if I was the only one in this world. "When did you draw this?" I asked in a low voice taking a step back while he stepped forward. My back hit the table and he placed his hands on both sides of the table caging me in between. His eyes bored into mine making my breath hitch. "Seven years back," He replied dropping his head on my shoulder and turning sideways snuggling into my neck. His one hand reached my nape pulling me closer to him. "That was the first time I saw you," He said huskily kissing my neck and my cheeks turned hot while knots formed in my stomach. This is another secret of Arnav, but the sweetest of all till now. ***************************************************************************************** His life was filled with darkness and hers was not better. His friends became his family as he never got the love of his family after his parents died, while her family became her friends as she never had friends. But still, they felt incomplete. He wanted someone to call his family, while she craved someone to share everything that she couldn't share with anyone, including her family. He was not any prince, but the mafia king, and the CEO of his empire, the Rajvanshi Group of companies while she was a mere middle-class girl with lots of dreams and a pure heart. His world changed when his eyes fell on her but she was unaware of his existence until he decided to show up and change her life once and forever.

I have to throw my head back to look him in the eyes and I have no idea where I've got the courage from, but my temper gets the best of me as I have enough of his games. "You know what's bad for you, darling? Taking me by 120 million dollars." His head dips down to mine, hovering over me. My stomach flutters, and my knees are getting weak from the simple gesture. "Sucks to get a taste of your own medicine, no, love?" He murmers, scanning my face. "You know, you could make all of this stop. Just say the words."
