Chapter 18: Feelings

ina''s POV
Sometimes even after the mes still and the fire is extinguished, the ambers don''t die down. The
attraction I felt towards Ajax was morphing into something I had no name of.
Three months have passed since he has revealed himself to me and now all I do is steal nces at
him when he wasn''t looking.
He had countless number of fans. With a face and character like that which girl would not like him.
What was there not to like.
He was never polite but neither he was rude. He hated people approaching him so his deadly tone
warned them off.
I couldn''t care less about the way he looked because he would always be Ajax in whatever way he is.
And Ajax was the word whose essence I desired with all my heart.
But when talking to me it got filled with warmth like a desert dipped in Maple syrup and dribbling with
honey.
I hated the effect he had on me. I was sure that once he came out of his disguise girls would throw
themselves at him, the superficial cover once removed would attracting both males and females.
But would they able to see how truly beautiful he was from his heart. I was no naive girl, the man I felt
for was a Mafia Lord and not even a Commander....he was the King.
But being able to preserve one''s soul despite such cruel circumstances....how can I say that I felt
nothing for such courageous soul.
I was standing by my window, the stars twinkling like sapphires in the evening sky, the tangerine burnt
of sun almost mixing with the crimson hues.
I can seriously use a walk right now, it will definitely clear my mind of all the undecipherable thoughts,
they were sinning and also something which was uncontroble.
I have to talk to Ajax, a rude awakening was required for me and once his actions show that I am
nothing for him....maybe then I would be able to move ahead.
I picked up my cellphone dialling his number.
"Ajax?"
"Yes ina?"
"I was thinking if you want to go for a walk with me." A series of bangs ricocheting from the background
made me wince.
"A walk.......sounds good, I will be there at Eve park." he pondered over it and I was just expecting him
to say no but there was a small part of me which relished in the fact that he didn''t denied me.
"Uh...Ok fine."
...................................
I was sitting on a swing, my hands holding it''s chains for support were numb from the chilling, frosty air
swirling in gusts.
Small snowkes were falling from the oblivion, their pure white colour glowed as they seem to dance
around me, a smile lit my face on seeing them.
A fur coat wasid across my shoulders as I inhaled deeply into the pine cologne....Ajax.
"It''s cold, isn''t it?" He pushed the swing forward making meugh as the cool wind caressed my face.
"It is....but still you came." My voice was filled with surprise and a tinge of happiness.
"I cannot afford you getting lost, now can I?" He replied in a humorous tone.
"I am capable of taking care of myself." I was somewhat offended.
"I know you can, the fact that you don''t need people.....you want them is what makes you unique." I
blushed at that.
He came infront of me as I shuddered from the cold.
"Here" his upper body bend down as he wrapped a scarf around my neck, covering my ears with it.
"thankyou" I whispered and a small white fog escaped my lips as they parted. We were so close, his

sensuous lips just a little away from mine.
He pulled back, the primal gaze of his eyes locking with my saddened ones. I felt rejected.
"You are a trouble....." He spoke in his deep voice. "a...... trouble which I can''t have enough of."
I shuddered, my cheeks getting heated despite the harsh weather.
"Tell me something about you ina....something which I don''t know."
"My favourite colour is -"
"Hmm....its Royal blue, your favourite flowers are gardenia, you love winter, are allergic to chillies. You
love strawberries."
My eyes widened "What else do you know? I.. well don''t mind me... this ismon knowledge."
"Common knowledge?" He grinned.
"You are a kind of mystery to me ina...but I do notice that you smile when you see a child, the awe
on your face when you realise how such a small thing is so full of beauty and life.
You like finding shape in clouds, hate socializing even though you are good at it. You like water but
hate swimming.
You say you trust people but the truth is you turn your back to them only expecting and counting the
time when they will backstab you...in reality you don''t trust anyone.
You control your emotions to the extent where they can no longer exist, you...." I was frozen at my
ce, my mind in absolute frenzy with the things he said.
"....are brave and there are these walls which you have build around yourself to keep people away but
deep down they are made only in hopes that someone would break it someday."
"Are you a stalker?"
"I am not a stalker but I surely am observant. I wonder if I can the same about you treasure, because I
know you stalk me." His lips ghosted over my ear.
"And I am your willing victim."
