"Put me down! I am not going anywhere with you until you tell-"
"It's because I feel for you, damn it!" he suddenly snapped and put me down as I clutched the hood of the car for support.
"What..."my voice was timid as I stared at him in disbelief.
"I feel so deeply for you Isabelle and I act this way because I know if I'd give in to these emotions I'd destroy you," this time his voice was so broken and soft as he came close to me and rested his forehead against mine.
I closed my eyes as tears poured out of them like a waterfall. I couldn't believe my ears. I cupped his face in my hands as I tried to stop myself from sobbing.
"But I can't anymore," he said and before I had a chance to ask what he was talking about he smashed his lips onto mine as fireworks exploded in my stomach and my ability to think straight no longer worked.

~ She was the princess of a fairytale she'd never heard~

While on the other hand, Isabelle Reinhart is damaged herself because of what life brought her in the early years. Yet she's hell bent on bringing out the best in a man who has been nothing but just an insolent boss to her.
Working for the self-made multi millionaire, Isabelle faces the man who stops her heart from beating each time with his mere look at her.
While Ace, who sees himself as nothing more than a man incapable of affection, starts to fall in a trap he avoided all his life; love.
Love | Hate | Mystery | Desire
