"There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable." - Mark Twain ------------------------- The moment our eyes meet, the sparks in the air are almost tangible. My heart begins to flutter in my chest as I slowly slip away, drowning in those arcane silver seas that glinted with specks of gold in them. My breaths are stolen away with just a fortuitous slight brush of his hand against mine. And he isn't exactly in oblivion of the profound emotions he kindles in me. He is rather transparent about it. But, he is forbidden. He is my cousin's husband. The cousin who means more than a sister to me. We are bestfriends. And I just couldn't be selfish enough to set fire to their marriage that was already falling apart. So, I concealed my unequivocal attraction for him in the deepest corner of my mind until the night when he shows up on my doorstep with intents darker than the tenebrous night. -------------------------- **Warning: This novella contains mature and sexual contents.
