The room was quiet except for the soft hum of the air conditioning but the space between them was anything but still. Their eyes locked across the dimly lit room the weight of unspoken words heavy in the air. She could feel the heat of his gaze as if it were a tangible thing tracing over the curve of her neck the way her chest rose and fell with each breath. It was the kind of look that ignited something deep inside her something that she had tried to ignore but couldn't any longer. He took a slow step forward the space between them shrinking. His presence was magnetic pulling her in even as she tried to keep her distance. She wanted to say something anything to break the tension but all that came out was a shaky breath "Why are you so far away?" His voice was low a challenge in the softness of the question. She swallowed, her pulse quickening every fiber of her being screaming to close the distance to feel the warmth of his skin against hers. But she hesitated caught in the storm of her own emotions. "Because...I'm not sure I can trust myself" she whispered barely audible. His lips curved into a half-smile but there was no humor in his eyes. "You don't have to trust yourself Just trust me" Before she could answer he was right in front of her. His hand reached up brushing a strand of hair away from her face the touch electric. Her breath hitched her pulse racing as his fingers lingered near her jaw. She wanted to close the gap to feel the pressure of his lips on hers but something inside her held her back unsure torn between what she wanted and what she thought she should want. "Just one kiss," he murmured his voice a temptation she could no longer resist Her resolve shattered. Without thinking she leaned in, her lips meeting his in a searing kiss deep and hungry a perfect mix of passion and need. Time slowed the world fading away until there was only the rush of their breaths the fire between them and the overwhelming pull that neither of them could deny.

-- PROLOGUE "Let me get this straight. We have nothing in between us, except for the deal we made that day" he spoke in a monotonous tone. "I am the one carrying your name behind me; we are married. how can you say we have nothing in between us? Huh" She yelled at him, tears blurred her vision, and she spoke her heart to him. "For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --
