“Winters…..” Akim stepped towards her but she moved back at once. She didn’t want his hands on her knowing how confusing her emotions are. She wanted to do this with a clear head.

“They don’t like me,” Winters told him.

Akim sighed, rubbing his throbbing temple, “That is why I’m doing this,” He argued, “They don’t like you because they haven’t gotten to know you yet, but when you spend time with them, I’m sure their opinion of you would change!”

“You don’t get it, do you?!” She retorted, “They don’t like me and would never accept me! Your parents already have an impression of me and no matter what I do, I would never be good enough for them! For you! It’s all useless!”

“You haven’t even tried!”

“What’s the use of trying when it’s not going to work? You’re merely twenty and I’m eighteen! How long are we going to last, huh? How long do you think we would stay in love with all of the persecution around us? To your parents, I am a nobody who confused their son, hence I should save myself the heartbreak rather than join a wrecking ship!”

She continued, “Also, you don’t decide for me! I have my future, you know! Dreams! Aspirations! And you don’t just get to whisk me away to Lincolnshire to be a good queen! To suck up to your pompous parents who would never give me a chance for crying out loud.”

.....

By the time Winters was done, the blood had completely drained from Akim’s face and his lips trembled. At that moment, it felt like he was staring at a different person and he hadn’t known Winters at all. It wasn’t until a tear slipped down Akim’s face that Winters realized that she might have taken her word a little too far.

“A-Akim…” She approached him but he avoided her. His head was reeling and her words felt like arrows that pierced through his chest. No, she practically ripped his heart out of his chest and God, it hurts.

“You’re right,” He finally acknowledged it, “We should break up,”

While she had been the first to suggest it, hearing Akim acquiesce to it shattered her heart into pieces. Suddenly, Winters didn’t want it anymore. Couples fight and make up all the time, right?

Winters opened her mouth to tell him that she was sorry, that she didn’t mean any of those words she spoke. But yet, she couldn’t bring herself to say it knowing that it was true. Winters didn’t want to go to Lincolnshire and bootlick his biased parents, her pride wouldn’t allow that, but she didn’t want to break up with him either.

And just like that, her mouth was agape with no word coming out of it even when he said, “I was the fool.”

She swallowed instead, pushing down the tears that threatened to pour out in a torrent. While she wanted to be with him, the world was against them and Winters didn’t want to be the reason he was estranged from his parents. She was young and had many chances to love, but Akim had many things to lose because of her – his parents, and his throne. She couldn’t let that happen.

“I’m sorry,” Winters whispered to him, “You should go to your parents and carry out your role, prince Akim,” Those were the last words she told him before walking away.

But she didn’t walk for long before familiar hands wrapped around her waist and pulled her to his chest. With her back turned to him, Akim buried his face in her neck, begging, “Don’t go Winters.”

A shiver went through her but that rush of lust was extinguished when she felt something wet on her neck and came to realize Akim was crying. A sharp ache pierced through her, choking the breath from her body. She couldn’t leave him like this.

Winters turned in his arms, intending to tell him that she takes back every single word that she said, but her gaze connected with the queen’s instead. It was a silent conversation, the woman wanted her son back. Her face blanched as Winters realized all of this was happening because of her. She ruined her own family, would she ruin Akim’s as well?

And then, when she lifted her face to look into his tearful eyes, it was to say, “Goodbye Akim.”

She didn’t wait around for Akim to try to beg and change her mind, Winters broke away from him and ran away like a coward. She ran and ran amid everyone’s watchful eyes and never turned around for once.

Winters was scared to see his once beautiful eyes that held adoration for her now filled with hate. She knew that she hurt him, but this was for his good. The both of them were simply not meant to be together. Before love, comes family. She can’t let Akim go against his family all because of her.

“Winters,” Marcel called after her but she ignored him and went inside. All of them had been there watching the drama. It was so embarrassing.

She hid behind the wall in the foyer and somehow, Winters wished Akim would come after her. She already tried her best to push him away and If he came for her once again, she would not let him go. Not now. Not ever.

However, she waited and waited and nobody came. But yet, Winters wouldn’t give up and stood at the spot, unwilling to lose the give up. It took a while but she heard some steps coming in her direction and her heart leaped in joy.

Except that when she came out, it wasn’t Akim, but Marcel and the others. When her gaze connected with Arianna, she shook her head and Winters knew instinctively that Akim was gone.

A great deal of sadness washed over her and before Winters knew what was going on, her legs buckled and she fell in a heap on the ground crying. It hurts.

Why does it hurt too much?

Hi guys,

Yep, I know the chapter is so sad and you probably want to kidnap dear author wherever she is right now, you’re free to do so ( just make sure there’s enough food and movies to keep me company and I’m all yours ??).

Anyway, the end of something is the beginning of another and that is why Akim and Winter’s story deserve a stand alone novel. Yep, their story is the contemporary story I was talking about. So below is the synopsis or plot I have at the moment and tell me what you think about it :

************

Ten years ago, he was willing to give her the whole world. Akim Revatio, heir to the throne of Lincolnshire proposed to the love of his life only to have the proposal thrown at his face and he was dumped right in front of his parents.

Akim has closed off his heart ever since and dedicated his life to leading his kingdom. Time was enough to heal his wounds, or so he thought. But just when he’s about to start another chapter of his life, she barges in like a wrecking ball.

It wasn’t every day one received a marriage proposal from a prince, but Winters did and she broke his heart in return. Years have passed since that incident and just when Winters thought things couldn’t get any worse, she’s thrust right back into his life.

Winters would come to discover that there’s a thin line between love and hate. Years have changed him and Akim, who she once rejected, turned out to be an irresistible Adonis and she’s quite not sure that she’s over him yet.

Except that there’s a little problem because Akim hates her ass and finds every way to make her life miserable and also, he now has a fiancée. Yep, Karma has come back to pay her back.

What would Winters do? Would she give in to fate and let him have his happily-ever-after love? Or would she fight for her love and pray fate gives her one more chance to right her wrong?

And Akim, would he be so consumed by hate and rage that he doesn’t see the future ahead of them? Or perhaps behind those rages, is there still a sizzling attraction?
