Don't be stupid Aadhya! Love, Me, and Kartik. Three different words in one sentence is not possible.
This question made all my tiredness go out of the window and now I am pacing the entire room, occasionally tripping over the things I threw earlier.
First of all, Kartik is a Mafia Boss and I am a princess. We come from different world and there is not even a single match about our day to day life. He wakes up to kill people and I wake up to ... eat? Whatever, I wake up because it's morning! Duh!
But love doesn't happen according career right?
I have to love only a Prince because that's what is said in every fairytale for a happy ending. But who is a Prince?
Prince is someone who is handsome, caring and looks after his people selflessly.
I would be lying if I said Kartik isn't handsome. He is the most attractive person I have ever seen with those caramel eyes, chiseled jaw, those strong muscles, his height, and most importantly his hair. That black, thick hair on his head which I love the most about him.
And care? I like how his brows knit together seeing me sad. He was ready to burn Aarushi alive for hurting me. Those maddening eyes looking at a drop of blood on my face. He even sat up next to me all night when I was unwell. I mean a Mafia Boss who could make any work by a click of his fingers sat next to me only to personally look after me.
Aww Kartik!
Okay, let's concentrate. His evidence of looking after his people is their loyalty towards him. The soldiers were ready to kill or die for Kartik, which explains that he is a gem of a person.
He has all the qualities of a Prince. But how is it possible? He is a Mafia Boss and still checking all the boxes just to annoy me.
But he doesn't want to marry me. Why must I love someone who doesn't want to marry me? Donkey, Monkey, Penguin. Why can't he just marry me and we could tick this box as well and it would be easy for me to finally fall in love with him.
Argh!!
Just as I would drop the plan of my concept of love I remembered him running away from his marriage just to be with me. I laughed at the thought of Mafia Boss running away to be with his lover. He even kidnapped me so that I wouldn't marry Darsh.
Breaking my father's promise and stepping back from marrying that white Bullock cart is a huge step in my life which I never thought in my right mind. I did it for myself, for my happiness. But Kartik broke his promise for me, giving importance to my feelings.
He broke his promise of marrying the Boss of Mittal territory. He knew it will be a bad remark in his flawless history of his leadership but still he backed off. Only because I didn't want to be his consort.
Did he love me so much that he is ready to stay unmarried for all his life, risking his position and title?
If the Mafia Boss of the powerful Menon Empire can sacrifice so much for me, why can't I a normal princess give up on the dream of marriage? I can sacrifice this much for him right?
I clutched my heart as I felt uneasy with giving up my dream. What's the problem if we stay together forever? I believe in Kartik, he would never let me get hurt. Maybe, we can marry later but even if he doesn't want to, it's alright. Sacrifice has no limit when one has fallen in love.
Now that the line is clear am I in love with him?
I hit my chest as it started beating erratically. Shut up, stupid heart. I have to find reasons to prove it wrong. Then let's see if I still have feelings for Kartik or not!
He killed my parents. Exactly! This is the most important reason as to why there is a barrier between Kartik and me. No matter how hard I fall for him, or if he move mountains for me I cannot forget the fact that he killed my family.
But Kartik doesn't do anything without a reason!
Shut up. There's no going back after this thought. I said trying to calm my stupid heart going crazy over a size foot handsome prince.
Kartik's main motto is to look after his territory and his people. Never did he harm anyone without a reason. If he really wanted to kill he would have killed me by now for annoying him till no end. But he was so patient!
A patient man wouldn't just kill an entire territory and that too a territory under his Empire.
What if there's something more to it? What if Kartik knows something about my family that made him to kill them? What if he was protecting me from my family?
With this thought in my mind I am starting to have a doubt if my parents are some sort of vampire who is sacrificing me that full moon night and Kartik a werewolf saved me. My parents really resemble Vampires though!
Stop overthinking!
It's better if I ask Kartik the reason instead of making one myself. After staying with Kartik all these months I came to know him personally. He is a Man of values and I trust him. Even if I don't know the reason, even if the question was not about my feelings, I will trust Kartik, our Boss.
I smiled at the thought of calling him my Boss. He would be so happy to hear that, wouldn't he?
So, shall we finalize now that there are no reasons to say no to my feelings.
I bit my lower part of my mouth shaping organ as excitement filled my every blood supply straw of my body. My blood pumping organ is expanding so much that I took more than needed gaseous state body in me.
I am in love!
I twirled around and hugged Kartik's jacket tight enough to feel his presence.
