Last night it happened
The result of my weakness n desires
And his selfishness
It was mutual
Or so I thought
Cos he said the right things
Made the right moves
Acted the right way and what not
I gave way to my desires
Ignored the protest of my mind
My heart gave in
Despite the urge not to cross the line
A line In clarity I had no business crossing
But what clarity can one actually have
When the heart wants what it wants
The night of a thousand tales
The night the truth my heart feared most
Was finally told
Silently I looked into the dim light of the phone
As the message popped in
I tried somuch to hide away the pain I felt
I wanted so badly to talk myself into being alright
But little droplets came trickling down
Droplets of silence
Expressions of pain
I will rise again
Yes I will
Shoulders high
Forgetting the mind destruction
The night of pain
Would finally be over
And in the morning comes a new beginning
A beginning of hope

It started when the rain fell. As it hit the windows rhythmically, I fought my sleep. Fighting off the demons in my dreams. I hadn't realized how real that dream became.

My depression became the best of me. What's worst then your family being slaughtered? Hiding in the closet from the killers. I should've helped, I should've been there for them. The pain between my chest and stomach was growing guilt. So I started thinking smart. Looking at everyone differently. I decided to reopen their cold cases.

Are you okay?
She wanted to die. He wanted to live. ••• A hand grabbed onto my wrist, yanking me back just as the train rushed past, before I'd even had time to comprehend whether or not I'd carry out the action. I stumbled back into the person's chest, my heart jumping out as I swivelled around, startled to find myself staring into piercing dark brown eyes. "Were you going to jump?!" "No," I drawled out sarcastically, ignoring the intensity of his eyes as they bore into my own, "I just stand on the edge of train platforms at midnight because I feel like it." Seeing the stranger tense, I stepped away from the edge, feeling his hand let go of mine as I picked up my bag before moving to sit down on one of the platform benches. Letting out an evident sigh of relief, he sat down after tentative movements towards me, and I could feel his intense gaze raking across my features. His eyes never left me, I was sure of it, with every step both he and I had taken. "Are you okay?" He had asked warily, apparent apprehension in his deep voice while he spoke, "Do you want to talk about it?" "What's there to talk about?" I threw his question back at him, watching him study me for a few critical moments before his potent gaze switched to our surroundings. "I did just watch you nearly kill yourself; that might be a place to start?" ••• She didn't expect for a complete stranger to stop her milliseconds away from committing suicide. She didn't expect him to be so kindhearted and patient. He didn't expect to stop her from jumping in front of a train the first time they met. He didn't expect to find himself falling for the one girl he knew he shouldn't. [Word Count: 180,000 - 200,000]Complete

A Different Kind Of Love
" hey " I said while giving a light knock to the door " hi, what are u doing here? come in " he said trying to fix his tie, which he seemed to fail miserably. " shouldn't u be getting ready for the wedding? " he said. He was right, I should be getting ready wearing the white gown selected by my cousin and getting my hair and makeup done. But here I was wearing all black standing in front of him. The wedding is to be held within a few hours, everything was planned according to me, the pinkish white and red wine coloured decorations, the food , the cake, everything. This wedding is exactly as I expected my wedding to be. " ughhh God, Anne can you please help me with the tie? " he said giving up trying to do his tie. He was wearing the black wedding tuxedo which looked as if it was made only for him, his hair combed and parted on the left side giving him the perfect look. " no " I said sternly " no? " he said finally looking up at me connecting our eyes. Slowly I walked closer to him and then did the one thing that I wanted to do for so many years, I closed the distance between us and pressed my lips onto his, the kiss lasted for a few second before I pulled out, but stood very close to him. He didn't kiss me back maybe because he was too shocked to or because he just didn't want to. I started doing his tie, not looking up at him. I felt him staring down at me " this is the last time I am doing something for u Kai " I said as I walked out of his room and apparently his life, not daring to look back. Tears started to slip out of my eyes. I can't do this, not now, not ever. People gave me a questioning look as I walked up to the gate. Not being able to bare it anymore I started running towards my car as tears continued to slip out of my eyes. And right at that moment I decided to do the one thing that I thought would be the best for all of us I WALKED OUT OF THE ONE PERSON'S LIFE WHOM I LOVE THE MOSTComplete

#Mature Content in later chapters# A sharp pull by my wrist brought me back to the wall. I hold my breath for a moment. "what the hell" I cussed. "Shh, baby girl" he exclaimed. I cringed with the endearment he used. He brought his face near to my face. His breath is fanning all over my lips. It raised my heartbeat to a different level. It must be heard by him also. His smirked face saying it all. His eyes are gazing over my lips and he started closing the small gap we have between our lips to be mingled into one. Sensing his intentions I closed my eyes & moved my face to the left. He stopped right away & increase the gap between us which I really appreciate but the hold of his hand on my wrist is very tight. It started paining me slowly. "Now listen to me very carefully, we might be lawfully wedded husband & wife. But you are nothing to me. I have only married you because of my doll" he said rudely to me. I forcefully release my hand from his hulk like grip which resulted into breaking my bangles & a piece of glass cut into my hand. It hurt me like hell. There must be a big cut in my hand. Ignoring the pain in my hand. I showed my other hand finger towards him and said "even I was not interested in this marriage. I am kind of forced into this" Which I am not, my subconscious mocked me. But I wont give him that satisfaction. Although I was not forced but I had no other option than to accept this marriage. ______________________ To know more do read "Bound by Vows"😉 WARNING- This is the first draft and you will find mistakes but i will correct them when i get the time to edit it. ##I have removed the story from here and moved to another platform.

Dusk Till Dawn
I am wide awake. At 3 am, and all I can think about is him, turned to his left, left cheek squished onto his pillow, eyes shut, not tight shut but gently shut. Him breathing quietly and a soft light from the window falling upon his face. Sleeping. All I can think about is how he is at peace, sleeping without a care in the world. Even if tomorrow he would wake up stressed and agitated. Right now he is asleep, peacefully, and here I am. Staring at the ceiling, begging to god to stop the pain, my hands entwined together, saying to him that I'm tired and that I'm not as strong as He thinks I am. I still believed in Him, because whenever I lost faith, I got a reason right away to not lose it. My dearest was at peace, he was happy without me. And this time I knew. He was not coming back. He was gone. And all my memories of his smile, his hair, his body scent, his hands, the scars on his body, his two vampire-like teeth, his expressions, his cheesy lines, his eyes. His eyelashes, eyebrows, and the way he used to light up after seeing me rushed in. Of how his eyes didn't shine when we met for the last time. How I missed the special way we used to say goodbye. He loved me. He always had. He put in all his efforts just to see me. He did it all. But he didn't love me, not anymore.Complete

There was no way I was going to share the same room as him after what he just did. I released a breath which I held in for god knows how long.

His hold on both my wrist was tight, there was no way I could run. The little respect I had for him died right there. "I'm your prince charming Jaanvi. Don't push this prince away."
