A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

I KNOW WAYS OF UPLIFTING YOUR MOOD!

After the physician left Edwin's chamber, Rees also left as he had to take care of many things. Edwin was waiting for Ruth, and when she came, she did not look in a pleasant mood.

A cute frown adorned her round face as she walked into his chamber. Edwin saw her lips moving in some incoherent mumbling. He tried listening to it but could not understand a single word she said.

"It took you long to come back." He said, pulling her to his chest.

The warmth spread in his chest with her presence!

Edwin thought how he had lived so long without her?

"hmm"

Ruth relaxed in his arms, the creases on her forehead smoothened as soon as she rested her face on his chest.

Edwin hid his face in her long toffee brown hair and dragged in a long breath. Her distinct flowery scent tingled him softly. He could dive in the pool of that scent and not come out for aeons.

He played with the loose strands of hair on her back.

"You are annoyed." He noted with a muffled voice.
