"Sshhh... wait a second." He grabbed my face, forcing me to look at him. "What?" I snapped. "Your eyes... when did they become so... beautiful?" he slurred, staring like I'd sprouted stars overnight. "Go home, you drunkard!" I shoved at him, trying to break free. He ignored me, gripping my chin tighter, stepping close. "And your nose... it used to look worse than a clown's. Why does it look... different?" His finger traced the tip. "Veer! Did you even notice? I got plastic surgery this morning!" I forced a fake smile and stomped hard on his foot. He yelped and stumbled back, but before I could walk away, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me toward him. "Why do your lips... look so good today?" His gaze locked on mine. "Go inside, or I'll shove you off this corridor myself and tell everyone you slipped because you're drunk!" I wrenched my wrist free. "Maybe it's the saree... or maybe I just had a little too much," he said, voice low, eyes still on my lips. "Fuck off!" I snapped, my patience gone.

when she asks him if he truly loves her, he simply smiles and says- "अभी तै तूने मेरा प्यार देख्या ही के सै, लाडो। वैसे तै तू मेरी ही सै... पर जिस दिन तू पूरी तरियां मेरी हो जागी ना, उस दिन तन्ने मेरा असली प्यार दिखेगा। मैं तन्ने गोद में लिए-लिए घूमूंगा, हाँडूँगा। अर सुन... मैं तन्ने रानी ना बनाऊँगा। रानियां नै समझौते अर कुर्बानियां देणी पड़ें सैं। तू तै मेरी राजकुमारी सै। राजकुमारियां नै तै पलकों पे बैठा के राख्या जाया करे सै... अर तू तै मेरी राजकुमारी सै, मेरी लाडो।"

Killian: "You blush like that again, and I swear I'll pin you against this wall just to see how deep it goes." He didn't know how to be soft. She didn't know how to be wanted. But in a house full of violence, he saw her. And he started to change. And soon, she was everywhere in his mind.
