"Stop teasing me," I muttered, rocking her gently. "Just wake up."

The tears came unbidden, a silent storm that washed over her, leaving behind a trail of heartache and unanswered questions. Exhausted and emotionally drained, Lily succumbed to the weariness that had settled into her bones. Sleep, though elusive, finally embraced her in its tender arms.

I won't let you break up with me. ” "No, Wregan. Let's end this. I can't even handle seeing your face for too long, let alone be with you again." I clenched my fist. Why is that?

The thing about heartbreak was you can’t see anyone other than the person that had hurt you. You can’t see how someone else looks at you because you’re blinded by the pain and betrayal from the past. You looked at everyone like they’re out to get you. Life becomes a series of black and white. Right and wrong. Good and bad. It’s bleak, lonely, and sad. Laughter becomes fleeting and happiness seems nonexistent. And though you appreciate the company and support the wound was still there. Someone may fill up the gap but it doesn’t heal the wound from the past.

“Is this easy for you, since you came in, I have been counting reasons why I should stay and you just come in and throw that all away, I know today was bad_” “Bad?”, I cut her off, “You think this is me having a bad day? I already said I fucking don’t want you, why? You don’t think that’s possible that someone doesn’t want you? I'm getting suffocated and I really don’t want to see you again, ever”, I shout out and her eyes waters. “What is it with you girls and tears, did I hurt you? Do you think this hurt? What type of life have you led so far that a break up will bring tears to your eyes? Or is it that unimaginable that someone doesn’t want you?” I snare.

But just then, a tearing pain ripped through my chest. "Argh!" A violent cough ripped through me, and blood sprayed from my lips. My knees gave out. I crashed to the floor as a phantom hand plunged into my chest and tore my soul in half. This feeling... The mate bond... it's breaking! "No! Evelyn!" I screamed at the sky. "Impossible!" The pain grew more intense. I could feel the invisible thread connecting our souls snapping, inch by inch. Every break was like another slice into my heart. "Austen!" Seraphina knelt beside me in terror. "What's wrong?"

My desktop screen glowed quietly in front of me. I tried focusing. Tried pretending I was just another employee working an ordinary job. But every small movement reminded me otherwise. The sting on my skin from Laney’s slap earlier. The missing piece beneath my dress. The memory of Romane’s eyes watching me from that jewellery store. God. I pressed my fingers against my temple tiredly. What was happening to my life? I felt not in control anymore after a very long time. My marriage was cracking apart in silence. Laney was becoming more possessive by the day. And somehow Romane had suddenly reappeared after years like a ghost refusing to stay buried.

caused me to cry. "From the very first day, I know I'm weak. I'm so easily hurt, I'm so soft to the point that I'm quick to cry. I just look okay... because I have to, so I try to look okay. But deep inside ... I'm crushed. Because... the thickness of my face hurts when I see him with someone else... well, I'm the one who broke up."

She roared like a wounded tigress shaking me now, but I was loosing my strength. "I...am...sorry....," I didn't knew for what I apologized; maybe for all the pain I have given her till date, but as my eyes gave up, I saw myself drifting to the night which lead to our breakup which still turned my body cold.
