“I am the Prince of Ivaan! How can you leave me like this?” Dileep asked glaring at me.
“That prince title has no value in the real sense, and I can leave because I need to protect myself.” I replied, not showing him that his rage is affecting me in any way.
“Protect yourself? But from what and whom?” he asked with confusion dripping in his words.
“I want to protect myself from you.” I replied, feeling tears burning in my eyes.
“Me? But why?” he continued his questions still with confusion covering his features.
“Because I fell for you and have the need to protect my heart before it crumbles more. And the great Prince of Ivaan does not have the same feelings and will never have for a girl like me.” I replied in anguish and covered my face to hide my sobs but didn’t miss him getting stiff in his position.
