"Because nothing happened ok..." Raman said almost yelling at her.
I froze for a moment, confused on hearing Raman's words.
"What do you mean by that? What do you mean nothing happened?" I asked, my voice calm yet trembling.
Cupping my cheeks, "Nothing happened ok... I got there in the nick of time and saved you from those awful men. They didn't..."
Staring directly into his eyes, "How?"
Raman's body froze when he heard her ask that question, as he loosen his grip a bit on her cheeks.
What is he going to tell her?
How is he going to explain things to her without giving her a whiff of the actual truth and everything that went down at that place?
His throat ran dry and right now, his brain couldn't process any words.
For the first time in his entire time of existence, he ran out of lies. Never in his life could he have ever imagined that he, being a demon, would at one point, fail in performing his job properly in telling lies.
