Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (read books for money TXT) 📕

for the rest of my life. And of course, I needed to make sure that I could end everything between us, even before Kazan could realise. I just could not allow him to get enough time and space for himself to think and feel all those pains which I kept feeling, because I knew that I was fighting against no one but my own mate. But it was not the same case with him.

Cause Kazan did not know yet.

And he must never know.

My body became all scarred by the vicious sword of my mate during the fight but I bothered the least as I was more concerned about the fact that I must stay hidden, at least until everything ends.

No, I did not have any kind of expectations from him anymore. Neither I wanted to blame him for accusing me wrongly. I just wanted to end all these.

Cause,

I was tired. I was tired of my life.

But my eyes did not fail to observe that Kazan could not look into my eyes anymore, the same way as before when he came to get justice for Markus only by hurting me in the exact way that he thought I had hurt Markus.

Then,

Why could he not look at me now?

What changed?

Was this some kind of hint that he was feeling guilty somehow?

What was the new reason which had occurred to him only now, that made him feel guilty unlike before? Was I not the criminal in his eyes since the very beginning of all these?

I wanted to scream.

Why? Why did he want to stop now? Why was he hesitating to assault me with his vicious blade even more than before? Why only now his hands were trembling?

At least when I was all ready to bleed even more.

Or was it only because I was looking like some pathetic girl begging for his mercy to stop as I was all covered with slashes?

No, that was not going to happen.

I would never back down.

I did not need anyone's mercy.

My body and soul was never intended to stop until Kaith came to interrupt and in no time I saw Adrian was thrown at the ground brutally in front of our feet.

I freaked out.

What the hell did Kaith do?

I had clearly asked him not to do anything, then why did he not even bother to listen to me?

I was shocked indeed, more like I was worried to anticipate what it would cause us next.

But it seemed that I was not the only one with such a shocking impact.

Kazan went completely confused and shocked by Kaith's sudden arrival with Adrian, and also when Adrian was in such a deformed condition once again.

Even before I could ask Kaith what was he up to, he came to grab Adrian's neck, stopping him from standing up on his already broken feet, right after he got back his consciousness.

“Do you want to tell the truth now? Or do you want me to work hard once again?” Kaith spat like some savage at Adrian, who was now struggling under Kaith's sturdy and inescapable grip. But it seemed that Adrian's efforts were all futile before the inevitable Kaith.

I really doubted that Adrian would say the truth now when he cared the least to say the same before. But it seemed that someone else had already decided to wait for his words ever so eagerly, even more than me.

Yes, I saw Kazan who did not say a single word in the favour of his own friend Adrian, neither did he try to defend him against Kaith's savage confrontation, instead he was like, more devoted to get the truth out of that prick, no matter how.

But, just as I had expected.

“I have already told exactly what happened last night. Or do you want to force me to say the lie in your favour now? Do you?” Adrian's words indeed appeared the most horrible and disastrous, who did not even care about the consequences that someone else had to suffer from, only because of his cold-blooded lies.

How cruel he was.

And I was almost convinced that Kazan would definitely believe him once again but to my surprise, he did not move to vent his anger on me. Rather he kept standing with his blazing gaze fixed on Adrian while his grip on the sword tightened, even more, making his knuckles turn all white.

Was he waiting for something else to hear from Adrian?

I could not understand him now.

Even though he did not move an inch, neither to me nor to Adrian...Kaith did.

Yes,

He waited for not even a second and smashed Adrian's head violently, causing his nose to break and blood came out of his nose with no intention to halt.

I thought Kaith would stop there. But no. The very next second proved how wrong I was. Cause Kaith's fist did not stop even for once to punch his face ever so brutally, letting Adrian grapple under his hold and struggle for just one breath.

The sight was extremely malicious.

And Kaith was acting like some heartless savage as if he was almost at the verge of losing his own soul in order to trade justice for me.

“Stop. Stop I say.

Kaith!!!!! Let him go. Now.

I accept.

I did all this.

It was no one but me who stabbed Markus last night.” I said out loud, as I just could not see Kaith being robbed of his soul in this way, and that too for someone like me, who would be always charged no matter how much anyone tries to prove me not guilty. I just could not see his brutality anymore.

And even if I did not accept all the accusations and let Kaith beat the hell out of Adrian until his last breath, nothing would change for
