"I don't care if you hurt me, that's fine—I'll still love you all the same." Those were the words that fell from Mattheos' lips as he gently grabbed your shaking shoulders, eyes soft with affection and admiration that which were only for you to see.

Ever since he laid his eyes on you, he knew deep down that you were the one for him—the only one that can make his heart beat faster just like how a runner's would after running a mile long marathon.

He knows that you've made mistakes in your love life before since you told him your past regrets from your previous flame. The feeling of longing and yearning for your past lover still lingering within you—haunting you. It was like it didn't want you to escape from its grasp, haunting you in ways that you can't even comprehend. Those feelings of yours was like a boomerang. No matter how hard you throw it, it kept on coming back, even if you wanted to get rid of it.

But, he was willing to risk it all just for you, even if it meant that he has to go through all of this pain just to have you here in his arms. He would stop at nothing to make your heart beat for him and only him.

"Just let me have you, please." It took all of his willpower to not just fully give in and beg on his knees, beg so that you can accept his love once and for all.
