The musk of Tobacco and smoke that he applied was still fresh, as soon as he entered the room, it came wafting to my nose. But still not wanting much drama, I pretended to sleep, maybe he'd go away or maybe he's only here because he has some work .

"I know you're awake. "
He said with a monotone.

Until then i was facing him with my back but now I turned around and looked back at him.

"Who Is she?"
I asked with a calm voice.

His hard eyes staring back into my soul, I could see that he was trying to come up as to tell me about her or not.

But soon he said,

"You don't need to know."

Coming closer and closer towards the side of the room, he sat on the throne chair. I turned towards the other side and kept staring at him.

"What!?"

He snapped. Unfazed I just rolled my eyes out of irritation that how short tempered could someone be, but another idea struck my mind.

Sitting up straight and then talking to him.

"tired?"
I asked.
Good way to initiate a conversation you idiot.

"I'm active enough to fuck someone three times in a round."
He snapped again.

"Then why are you here?"

He was speechless yet his eyes held so much of coldness and so much of fire at the same time. It was as if he had a permanent frown for life.

I slowly got up from the bed and rounded up the table and stood infront of his sitting figure, him being like a ferocious lion, kept on observing me.
I settled on the wooden table kept infront of the chair he was sitting on and leveled his gaze.

"You can see through me another time first answer my question. "
I was serious, my face showed no emotions just a look that a butcher would have while slaughtering an animal.

The actions of took a couple of seconds when he suddenly leaned closer to me and gripped my hair fistful, brutally.
Our noses touching, our breathes mixing and our lips only a couple of inches to meet. The pain faded away as soon he gripped my hair, what remained were humiliated tears trying to plummet.
"Your place doesn't do much demand. And if you're to eager to know moglie then she was supposed to be my wife!"

When just grip didn't reduce and his nails started digging in the scab that had formed on my wound from earlier, my hands clenched his larger ones in order to put them away but I wasn't expecting a sadist to act kindly.
"Kaden you're hurting me! Let me go!"
I cried when I felt a sticky liquid smutt my hair.

When I opened my eyes and looked into his eyes, I saw a devil awaken.
A single year drop cascaded from my eye and then the other and then the other.
I can't do this. I can't do this. I can't do this. I can't do this. I can't do this. I - I can't- I don't want to struggle anymore. I- I wanted to live but now I don't want to.....

I give up.

My hands that were trying to free his hands in my hair , fell to the side as my hurt face fell into an emotionless one, only the tears .

As if I got into a shock, I couldn't hear anything just the sound of white noise. There was dimming darkness in my eyesight and my body didn't respond very well with my heart. As if all the blood rushing to my head, my face turned red, and my body felt cold. My Breathes were short and shallow as all I could focus upon that one voice saying ,

I give up.

Did I really? Give up?

His grip slowly vanished as his expression changed from a ferocious lion to a worried one, as soon as he saw my hands fall and me zoning of into his eyes, his eyes furrowed as he started calling out my name and patted my cheeks to gain my attention. His eyes widened slightly when my cheeks stained with a dark colour, he immediately looked at his crimson painted hands .

"Kaden."
She called him without any emotions.
He looked back at with an unreadable expression of worrying and anger, an association.

My eyes looked into his grey ones as I said it finally.

"I give up Kaden."

That was the first time someone broke down infront of him, this was the first time, he saw someone being to vulnerable, so fragile, so frail and so broken infront of his saying that they 'give up ' . her eyes told the whole story , how she tried to pick every piece of her , when she tried to pick up the dusts of her aliveness. And as if things couldn't get any better, a trail of thick blood trailed just nose to her lips. her tears increased , her crying increased and turned into sobbing that she had to lean her head onto his shoulder as she cried.

"I dont- I can't-- I just give up Kaden, you win. There's nothing left to me. It was so hard to keep myself together but it only took you a couple of minutes to delude my entity into ashes. Now I can't do it, I can't do this anymore, I can't suffer through this anymore."

Her words sounded similar to the words he once spoke to his mother when he was
In his own dead beat.

And for the first time,

A tear cascaded the mafia's eye.
