The inception

Naina's pov:

I opened my eyes and found myself sitting on the chair, I moaned in pain as my head was aching badly, but when I tried to grab my head I realized that my wrists were cuffed with the chair,

My entire body got alert and I instantly start looking here and there in anxiety, but there was too much darkness...

I struggled and attempted to free myself, but it was no use,

I ended up hurting myself and soon blood started oozing out of my wrists.

Tears were about to roll out of my eyes, but I controlled my emotions at the right time because I know my tears doesn't matter to him anymore.

It's his basement, where he turns into a monster and chops humans like merciless devils here,

I have seen his brutality and madness in this deadly basement room where even a mute person started speaking due to his fear,

I had witnessed how he ruthlessly chopped my men in his rage.

Since our college days, he was a very aggressive and hot-head person but now everything has changed,

We are changed, he has turned into a ferocious Alpha, where only his power and his clan matter to him.

"It was you... All the time it was you who was backstabbing us " His dark, dominating words started ringing in my head.

My entire body got numb,

He knows, he knows that all the time I was cheating on him,

He knows that it was me who has been eating the roots of his empire like a termite.

Resting my head back on the chair I close my eyes.

**This is my end, No! I am not scared of death, I was already aware of the outcomes.

I'm upset with the ending of this game,

I never wanted this story to finish like this, But if everything was in our hands then maybe we would be gods.

It's not like I didn't try to finish the clashes between both clans, But how can the bloody thirst of years be quenched so easily?**

Suddenly I heard the voice of the door opening,

I opened my eyes, seeing him was quite difficult for me because of the darkness but I can smell him.

His steps were echoing in the dark basement and making the deadly basement more horrible...

I can see his figure standing in front of me, but his face was still covered under the darkness, his penetrating gaze has been burning my soul, and tearing my heart so painfully,

**What an irony of life where I have to sacrifice my love for my duty,

I wish I could go back to the past when I was living in my happy bubble, but unfortunately, real life isn't a fairy tale where you always get the happy ending...

This is the damn reality and reality is a bitter poison where you have to sacrifice yourself and your happiness for your loved ones and responsibilities...**

My entire body got rigid, My heart stopped beating and for a second my breath got stuck in my throat when he step close to me, and the light fell on his most handsome face,

His eyes, nose, and face were looking so red, there was puffiness under his eyes as if he cried a lot before coming here.

My soul screamed in pain and my heart started bleeding, Oh! God, I instantly removed my gaze from his face,

**I can't, I can't see him in pain ( her heart cried in pain), his eyes have been burning me,

Where you have dragged me, god,

What are you doing with me?**

He gripped my jaw but not in a painful manner and made me look into his cold, deadly, red eyes.

I can feel his harsh breaths fanning my face,

We still share the same gravity which we used to share at collage time,

There was some attraction between us,

He was fire and he used to call me his oxygen,

He was staring at me as if he has been trying to read me, But that girl has been dead for 6 years, whose eyes he could once read like an open book.

Stop staring at me Jacob, please stop staring at me like this, or else I'll break down,

I'll change my mind,

Damn! I am stuck between devil and Den, Whichever path I walk, the end will be mine.

**I have grown up listening to stories of fire and moths since childhood, and I always dreamed to have a love story like Fire and moths, but destiny had other plans...**

He leaned close to me, I remove my gaze from him and started staring at his pink soft lips, they were looking so alluring, then I turned my gaze back and once again started staring into his eyes.

**You have no right to feel anything for him,

You don't belong to him,

You are married, Naina..." My mind screamed, but my heart,

My heart was minding its own business.

I heard the sound of metal, with a painful sigh, I look at my wrists and noticed that he freed me from the cuffs, then he removed the shackles from my ankles,

He pulled his palm out for me, but instead of putting my palm on his palm, I got up from the chair and kept staring at him...

He smirked, but I can see the heart-wrenching pain behind his deadly smile,

**Do I honestly want to end the life of this man whom I love more than my life for the man who never considered me as his wife...

For whom I was just the toy, ** my heart asked,

My love will have to burn in the fire of hatred, only then the disaster of revenge will calm down.

"Did you ever love me?" he asked staring into my eyes with such intensity that for a second I thought I would flow with emotions,

*Yes* my mind and heart screamed at the same time but I can't say this to him,

I tried not to cry in front of him, but my shameless tears welled up in my eyes,

Seeing my tears, he smile and this was a genuine smile, pulling me close to him and wrapping his arms around me, he puffed out a heavy breath,

" I don't need an answer," he said as if he read my eyes,

I put my palm over his chest and made little distance between us, and to my surprise, he let me make the distance between us,

I gulped my pain with my saliva and then closed my eyes for a second to blink the tears, that had welled up in my eyes.

"He will be here any minute Jacob..." I said, looking into his eyes with a blank expression.

He stepped close to me staring at me with unknown expressions, for a second I thought he'll strangle me, and without thinking twice, I once again closed my eyes because I want to get free from this pain that I have been feeling, but instead feelings his palm around my neck, I felt his lips over my head.

He put a soft and promising kiss over my head,

That kiss has the simple meaning, that even after my deeds, my betrayal, my cheating, he still loves me.

This confession was enough to tear my heart,

I instantly opened my eyes and noticed him going toward the exit door,

**Stop him, Naina, Stop him before it gets too late** my heart said,

"Don't go out Jacob please!" I screamed,

He halted but didn't twirl back to look at me,

"We can stop this Jacob! " I said

"But I don't want to," He retorted

"Jacob, we can make a new home, new family, new life, we can live our lives as we planned when we were in college,

I'll talk to Aaron, I'll..." He harshly cut me off and twirled back to look at me,

"I can't forget how he killed my innocent Sister and my brother, he turned my father into a metal body," He yelled at me,

"You and your father also killed his family, and my father too, " I reminded him,

But instead of saying anything, he turned toward the door,

I started breathing painfully, tears started flowing out of my eyes like a never-ending river because I know what will happen if he steps out of the room,

"One of us has to die Sugar!" I stop breathing hearing his words, I felt as if someone has brutally ripped my soul out of my body and crushed it right in front of my eyes. I know, this was coming but I wasn't prepared for this, now I don't want to lose anyone in this battle,

"Either your love or your husband, only then the fire of this vengeance will end between both the clans, " He said in his cold deadly tone,

Hearing his words, my legs started wobbling and soon I sat on my knees.
