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.

THE FEELING IS MUTUAL

Minutes passed, felt like excruciatingly slow hours, undecided and unpredictable. Amidst the tensed silence as thick as the suffocating blanket woven by the grandma for the ruthless winters, multiple pairs of eyes followed every single movement of the big men as they wrestled, fought, threw punches, growled and did everything to beat their opponent.

They both were the sweaty mighty glaciers who glared down at each other with such coldness that it made Thea shiver a few times.

Everyone watched in anticipation and rooted for their bias, but Feronia was the only person who was watching with keen interest and a smirk plastered on her face. Her amber eyes glinted with something strange that Ruth couldn't decipher, but she definitely didn't like that look on her.

And for the first time, a small, selfish and jealous part of Ruth wished for Edwin's defeat. But that man was set on his win, unaware of his mate's wish.
