Bound by a fierce rivalry and fueled by years of misunderstanding, their connection was always more than hatred-it was instinct, pull, and ache. Each clash between them sparked something raw, unspoken, and undeniable. Ishan felt it in every breath Shubman took... a wild, restless pull he couldn't explain. And Shubman, no matter how far he ran, always sensed Ishan behind him-watching, waiting, wanting.
They were supposed to be enemies, but their bond refused to obey. It throbbed beneath every argument, pulse racing with something that wasn't anger but longing. A connection neither asked for, yet both craved. A bond that whispered of belonging, of home-if only they'd stop fighting long enough to reach for it.
