SNEAK PEAK

Five Weeks. Thirty five Days. Eight forty hours. Um, fifty thousand four hundred minutes. And... Some lacs and crores of seconds of endurance with this man! But, then, I will be able to fly away from here. Yay!!!

Anahita did a happy dance in her mind, luckily reflecting the happiness on her face which was caked with makeup. She let out a soft moan, unscrewing her earring, still engrossed in talking with her reflection in the mirror.

"Remember, Anahita! You gotta be strong. Don't let that asshole drive you crazy!" She put her bangles beside her discarded jewellery and shivered as the door opened, making her eyes meet the warmest pair of brown orbs.

The hair in her neck stood up straight and her throat grew dry. Whatever pep talk she had with herself sounded gibberish. In that brief moment, she felt herself melting in a puddle.

"Be strong! Be strong! Be strong! Be str..." Wait, was there a crack in the mirror for the way he stared at her? She gulped her saliva, cursing herself to not being able to break the stare. Nobody could. He had that hypotonic grip on everyone.

'Remember, Anu. This is for us. You have to be strong. A few days of pretense, and I will get you out of there. Just don't lose hope!' Familiar words rang in her ears and she blinked, snapping the unspoken control Yuvraaj had on her.

Something flashed in his eyes. Was that a smirk? She had to twist herself to take a better look at him. Mirror didn't do justice to his expressions. They were more primal, more raw!

"I can't do this. I can do this. I can do this. I can't... ugh." She clenched and unclenched her fists to calm herself down. "Come on, Anu! A few days! Just a few days and you will be out of this shit!"

She inhaled a deep breath, blossoming in a breezy smile. Her lips stretched full, liking the confusion swimming in his consumingly dark eyes. She got up in slow motion, not losing his stare and walking towards him.

'So, what do they say? When in Rome, do as Romans do.' Her mind advised her in a cheeky tone and she couldn't help but smile at that.
