Is it wrong to trust the person you give your heart to? When he closes his strong arms around me, I feel safe. He feels real. Genuine. In the royal blue colour of his mysterious eyes, I see affection dance. He must love me. But I'm not aware of the fact that he's a professional liar. The affection in his eyes may be nothing short of deliberate deception. What I see as love might just be lust. He makes love like a god and resembles one, too. His aura whispers that he's larger than life. And he feels like it. With his striking intellect, athletic physique, and gallant ways, I doubt there exists any obstacle that he can't overcome. I'm irrevocably in love with him. I might just be the biggest idiot out there. I have been so blind.***I turned the handle and dragged the door open. The sight that met me rendered me paralysed with confusion. But he gave me no time to collect myself. Before I'd even caught my breath, he clasped my head in his hands and dropped his mouth to mine. While kissing me as though I were his salvation, he rushed us inside and kicked the door shut behind him.Was I dreaming? I had to be. This didn't make any sense. What was he doing here? How did he know where I was? What my room number was? Wasn't he supposed to be in Russia?Grabbing onto his familiar shoulders, I pushed him away and stared flabbergasted at him. It was definitely he. I could even smell him. But something was off. His eyes were drenched with panic. I had never seen that look on his face before. He looked... scared. Truly frightened. And it frightened me, too. The unshakable man that was Henry Fitch never got scared. So what was going on?He broke the deafening silence first. "I don't have time to explain. You need to come with me. Pack your things and leave any traceable belongings with Sam. Do not bring your mobile or your computer. Only your wallet and your passport, as well as your clothes."What? "Wh-what?" I stuttered and felt my brows furrow with my intense confusion. I had only just woken up. I couldn't make sense of a single thing he was saying. He charged past me and fetched my red suitcase on the way. When he reached my bed, he flung the suitcase onto it and began stuffing my clothes into it. My navy blue coat, my beige cashmere scarf and a pair of black trousers he left be. After sealing it shut, he turned to face me. His eyes were lightening. I had never seen him like this. He barely resembled himself. His jaw was clenched tight and his stance guarded."Get dressed. Now, Keira!" he snapped. I jumped in response and felt my heart climb to my throat."What the hell is going on?" I asked feverishly and rushed toward my trousers to obey his commands. He was frightening me."I'll explain later. We have to leave."
