Anna’s POV   What the hell is wrong with me? What am I doing?  I just kissed this bastard back. Was my head not working anymore, or have I gone mad? I just kissed him.  Bloody hell! Fuck, Anna! Anna, you are such a two-timer! Just a while ago, I cursed him, yet when he kissed me, I melted away like dust. I was the one who had no shame, yet I called him shameless. But wait a minute, why was I cursing myself? He was the real culprit. How dare he kiss me? Even if I push him away, I end up hugging him like an octopus.  “You, Blaze, listen to me. Don’t think too much about this. It was a physical reaction, nothing else. And it was you, who walked away from our relationship. I didn’t, so it was your choice since you never loved me, and this is my choice that I will not marry you.”  I further spoke, “Also, what kind of useless desire is this of yours? You never loved me, so why are yo

Blaze's POV My possessive and dark mood turned on even after I tried so hard not to. I know I want to control, but at the same time, I decided to let go of the leash at my will.  I want her, her body, heart, soul — her everything. I just want her back. Even though I know she will hate me, I want to take this path I chose. The longing I had for these five years; I couldn't describe my desire in words. Every nerve in my body felt tired because she was far away from me. I wanted to give her time to agree with her will, but her eyes were too determined to take a step toward me and forgive me.  That's why she forced me to take such an action. I never thought I would blackmail her with her family. But I knew that other than this, I didn't have any other choice. After that I felt I should stop. Otherwise, her mind might blast in anger. I let go of her mouth and looked at her teary eyes. I felt terrible seeing her tears, but I held myself ba

 Anna’s POV After Blaze left, I came back to the room he called my room. I locked myself inside this room. I wanted to be alone at that moment. Currently I was sitting on the carpet, pulling my knees up to my chest, thinking about what he said. I finally lost my cool, but suddenly I turned calm, too calm and unusual like me. I didn’t know if I should pity my fate or laugh at my fucked-up luck — long-lost love came back but turned my life into a nightmare. I wanted to marry a man to save my father, which was a complete plan. I planned how to kill myself on the wedding night before my marriage but got kidnapped by my ex-lover and tried to run away, but he caged me in an ocean. Nowhere to run now. And finally, he blackmailed me into marrying him. I didn’t know how an average person would react in this situation, but my mind completely lost sense. I was a loud and nosy person, but suddenly I felt my brain frozen like December’s snow.

 Blaze's POV The sudden changes in Anna not only made me happy but also frightened me because I knew she was showing her emotions. But as soon as she remembered these painful five years, she would hate me for doing this to her. My Anna was always a sturdy girl. If everything goes according to her desire, she will stay calm, but sometimes the opposite can also happen. But seeing her catch me tightly as if I was going to vanish if she loosened her hold on me — it ached me. It reminded me of how badly I hurt her that she felt so insecure. My body was feeling every part of her as if she melted just for me. The wild desire kicked me once again, but I didn't want to force her. So, I changed the position, and now she was on top of me. I covered us with the blanket tightly. She was silently crying as her tears soaked my t-shirt. I wanted to call also at that moment, but I didn't want her to bore my pain again. She already had enough on her plate.

Anna's POV "Why and how dare of me? Blaze, do you even realize what you are talking about? e I was crazy for you, I was in love with you, yet you left me. That's why do you need any more reason?" I asked him. How dare he point his finger at me? I killed him. Yeah, I did because he killed my first soul. Suddenly his grip loosened from my neck, and he stepped back. He turned back and went inside the bathroom. He left me alone. I felt a burning sensation on my neck. That bastard almost broke my neck, but something else broke inside me — my firm willpower.  Now when he screamed at me, I saw the pain in his eyes. He was dying from pain. He was in pain like me. I knew the pain in his eyes, but I thought Blaze didn't love me. So why did he suffer hearing I almost died? I went to bed and laid down, covering myself with a blanket. I heard a loud noise coming from the bathroom. I wanted to check, but then I listened to the clicking sound of
