One more step, and the distance between us disappears. His hands slide onto my shoulders, as if demanding that I stay put. “You want me to believe that you're willing to do anything for him, don't you?” These words pierce my skin like deadly needles. I try to avoid his gaze, but he won't let me. His fingers grip my chin. Bazhinsky forces me to look him in the eyes, studying me as if I were an interesting specimen for his collection. “If you really want this... prove it,” he challenges.

Love ties two hearts together with invisible red threads. In my case, it bound me so tightly to a person that the knots could not be undone. Instead of enjoying the carefree days of youth and delighting in the feelings of first love, I gave my heart to Him, allowing it to be reshaped by the bloody threads of someone else’s mistakes.

He's the man she detests with every pore of her skin precisely because it yearns to be caressed by those haughty fingers and that mouth that have always labeled her viperous and a bully.

The only thing that separates love from hate is something much thinner than a line. Even more so when they live under the same roof.
