Synopsis
[Excerpt] I looked at the eyes of my lover, so beautiful, so bright. A tear dropped from those pretty eyes and rolled down my lover's face. We both are in pain, we both burn in the same fire. Two hearts that loves but is tainted by the past, which can't be erased. I watch the gun pointed at my face, a bitter smile graced my lips and I gently wrapped my hand around it. I placed it over my beating heart, who's every beat has my lover's name. "Go ahead. Kill me. Kill this stupid organ of mine, for it is still beating for you." I smile. A nerve wrecking sob leaves them. The shell of the broken person I love, cries bitterly. *Bang* And everything goes quiet. And dark. *** MALVINA ASHFORD: I closed the closet door with all the skeletons in it, locked it and left it in the bottom of the ocean, now I have only one purpose - protect my brother. My life was fine until he arrived in it, with the key to the closet along with him. Wreaked havoc on my mind and heart and kept me craving for more. ADRIAN REED: I am not a misanthrope, but my reputation earned me this title. I was fine with it until she arrived in my life, wreaked havoc on my heart, made me crave her and disappeared one day. Now I have her back in my life, this time she's not leaving, I will make sure of that. When love meets secrets and pasts meets present, new stories are made. A heart that can't love and one that don't feel love, how will they become each other's reason to love?

Chapter 1 - PROLOGUE

The orange glow brightening the midnight sky, grows dimmer.

The sound of the faraway chaos fades as a young girl sprints through a dirt path covered in dry, dead leaves. Her steps falter as her feet sink into thorny branches, yet she continues.

She stops abruptly and turns around. A look of sorrow filled her face, a lone tear, sliding down her face. She closes her eyes for a moment then opens them. This time a fire, more fierce than the flames illuminating the dark sky appears in her eyes.

A long, determined stare at the scene one last time and she turns around and starts running again.

A streak of light flashes in the sky, brightening the entire forest.  For a moment, a glimpse of a figure stops her dead in her tracks.

    

A newly appeared figure, clad in a black raincoat. In another flash, a metal illuminates in the dark.  A revolver. '1720R'.

Her eyes widened in shock at the new face. A terrifying thunder echoes in the sky. Betrayal. That's what she feels at this moment.

     

She takes a step back as the dark figure points the gun towards her. Soon heavy drops start falling from the sky, accompanied by angry thunder.

   

Water runs down her face, mixed with tears.The sound of heavy rainfall drowning the metallic click of the revolver.

        

"Run!" A gunshot echoes, and the dark figure falls on their knees, clutching their legs. A sliver of dark hair catches her eyes.

      

She nods and sprints in the opposite direction. One more gunshot echoes in the night, then it becomes quiet.

    

Her steps stop at the edge of a cliff. Heavy rain mixed with the roaring sound of waves, sent a shiver down her body. There was no escape.

A broken laugh leaves her mouth as she stares at the crashing waves.

"Don't."

She turns around to face the  owner of the voice. Dark, deadly eyes meet hers. A young boy, his face remains calm, but anger simmers behind them. 

His face breaks into agony as he extends forward a hand, begging her to hold it with his eyes.

"Goodbye. You are the best thing that happened to me." A teardrop slides down and gets merged with the soft, broken smile on her face.

"Don't" His deep voice breaks "Take my hand, my Rose." He takes a step forward. Her face morphs into raw pain.

"I love you."She smiles at him and then… jumps.
