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.

ONE DAY SHE WILL BE AT MY FEET!

"That was not the first time we met." Ruth finally revealed what had slipped from her mind.

After coming back to Vincardine when Ruth got to know about the tussle between Edwin and Darius, she was scared to tell that to Edwin. But she couldn't hide it for long, and nor she should.

"What the hell are you saying?" Edwin growled. His hands tightened around her, and she winced in pain.

"P-please listen to me first. Do you remember when we went to meet Miss Chang for the first time in the nearby village? We... stopped in a market and I went to buy a walking stick for Mrs Payne."

"What about that?" His voice was changing into his wolf's.

"At that time, I bumped into a man. We did not really share a conversation other than exchanging apologies. But when our fingers accidentally brushed, I... I felt a strange feeling. He was so cold... like ice.

But he did not feel like that when we again met. I do not know how."
