"I thought you were my person. I thought you were my true love. I opened my heart for you" 
She didn't want to cry. She didn't want to look weak before him. 
"Dharani..." 
"But you showed me. You proved me right. My heart is safer with me. It's safer in this wall of mine. And I thank you for that." She meant every word. Every single syllable. 
"I'm sorry." 
She heard the remorse in his voice. But a smile curved into her lips. Letting out a deep breath, she look into the dark chocolate eyes. How much they resembled a Devil's food cake. 
"No, I thank you." Her smile grew wider, the weight in her heart decreased. "Thank you so much, Ansh." 
She could have sworn that she saw tears well up in his tears.
And it became clear to her. She would always love him. At least the beat organ in her chest will always belong to him. 
But she couldn't forgive him for all the pain he caused her. 
Not yet.

Standing in the dimly lit room, facing Ankita, I took a deep breath. "Uhmm, honestly, I don't know how to confess to you, Ankita," I said, my heart pounding in my chest. The room was sparsely decorated with yellow balloons, her favorite color. It all happened so fast that I couldn't make it perfect. I hoped she would appreciate the effort. "What is it, Aryan?" she asked, her eyes wandering around the room. I gathered my courage and looked straight into her eyes. "I love you, Ankita," I confessed sincerely. Her body stiffened at my words, and she looked at me with numb eyes. I gave a small smile and continued, "I myself don't know how and when it happened, but I started falling for you, Ankita. I realize that I can't live with-" Before I could finish, she slap me hard, shocking me. I looked back at her, holding my burning cheek. She was looking at me with teary eyes."Ankita," I murmured in shock. "How could you, Aryan? I didn't expect you to stoop so low," she said, her innocent eyes now filled with pure disgust. I tried to explain, "Ankita, you're misunderstanding everything. I-" "Do you even know what relationship I share with you? I'm your brother's wife, your bhabhi, for God's sake! And you're lusting after your own bhabhi?" she spat at me, her words cutting deep. My entire body froze, and my eyes blurred with tears. I took a step back, the painful lump in my throat making it hard to speak. Is loving someone such a crime nowadays? What's my fault? Can anyone tell me? My intentions were never wrong. I swallowed hard, trying to keep my emotions in check. Destiny has given her a second chance to experience love again. Now, let's see what Ankita will do-𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐛 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐬.

Tied By Promise by bookxishq

MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE "You didn't trust me" Guilt wash over her when a tear cascades down his eye. He is crying for the first time. She is the sole reason behind his tears. "I am sorry" She lowers her eyes in shame. He steps closer to her gripping her forearm with his left hand. A shiver rolled down her spine not due to their proximity but due to the tension vibrating between them. She looks up and her heart crack in response as betrayal brims his eyes. "You claimed to love me but you couldn't trust me. Is our love so fragile ?" His words cut through her soul. The question felt like a mock. Question on their relationship. Question on her trust for him. Question on her lover for him. "I trusted you with everything. I strip off my every layer for you. I bared my soul to you. You are the only one whom I allowed to do this and I get this in return. If this is what love feels like then I don't want it" He left arms with a jerk and heaved a sigh suppressing the anger bubbling inside him. Hurt visible on his face and his voice held a mixture of anger and pain. She had never seen him this sad. This helpless. She hates to admit that she is the cause of it. "Adhyan please don't---" "You are,you were and you will be my responsibility. So there is no chance I will hurt you, it would be best If I go away " Two souls bounded by sacred bond. Tied by the promises of their grandparents. Will they be able to fulfill their promises ? Or break them by breaking each other ? Join their journey to know what the future holds for them.

"I don't love you," I declare, my voice steady but my resolve wavering. He smiled at me, though his expression was tinged with pain, tears pooling in the depths of his eyes. "I knew it, you still love me so much." I was rendered speechless by his declaration, my efforts to conceal my emotions proving futile as he effortlessly deciphered the truth written in my eyes. "Say it, just once, that you love me, my Sweetheart. Just once, please," he pleaded. I finally surrendered, tears misting my own eyes as all rational thoughts scattered, "I love you. I never stopped loving you." "And I love you infinitely more," he declared, leaning closer towards my lips. I placed a trembling hand over his mouth, halting him in his tracks, and shook my head slowly. "We can't. It's wrong.

It wasn't romantic or easy. It was just something that happened." "God! Was it worth ruining everything?" "It wasn't. Dhruv, it happened. I don't want to justify it nor do I want to defend it but nor am I ashamed of it." "You've ruined my life. This will stay with me forever." "I'm sorry for this. Only this."
