"Why can't you understand that I can't live WITHOUT YOU!" Akhshit roared, coming really close to me.
"And why can't you understand that it's not possible. Please just go away." I pleaded to him cause all this was impossible to me.
"Stop running from me Shayri. I'm tired of playing this game." He snarls and closes the distance between us.
"What are you even talking about? Which game?" I asked, literally confused now.
"Like you don't want me. Where I know you do. You want me as much as I want you. I see the way you look at me, the way your heart races when I'm near." He said looking straight into my eyes. I knew these were all true but..
"No I don't. Why can't you understand that we both are poles apart. Where your duty is to kill, shoot and punish but mine is to save, protect and care. And again you are my brother's best friend. In every way it's forbidden. "
"Then let me show you just how sweet the forbidden can taste."
