Rose's POVAdian came knocking half an hour after that call. I let him in without a sound, my mind still jumping hoops through the perturbed matter that still struck through my mind.“Rose?" I jerked up at my name, seeing him with furrowed brows.“Can I call you Rose?” His voice seemed tentative this time.Why was he asking that? It never stopped him before.I nodded.“Why do you look like you're in some mental gymnastics contest and you're running for first place?"The strange comparison made me blink in surprise, my mind going blank as I processed what he said.I shook it off, shaking my head. “It's nothing."He didn't seem to be convinced, making me slightly miffed. I was good at pretending - being a drama minor - but now everything felt incredibly difficult. I was still drained for most of the day after all.Thankfully, he looked away, saving me from my slight embarrassment. “So what movie are we watching today?" He settled on my couch.Gratefulness filled me as my gaze followed h

Rose's POVBy the time evening hit, I was more than ready to see Rael's face once again.Once I had enough of the library, Adian had led me all the way back to my room before exiting. Hours had passed already and so I spent most of my time mindlessly scrolling through images and words I couldn't care for.Now in spite of my doubts, I was eager to see Rael again. With that, I was determined to leave the room.I slowly peeked out of my room - tentatively at first, before my confidence rose.I did so easily, stepping out into the hallway to take a deep breath. I was alone. Unlike earlier today, Adian wasn't there to stay with me. Yet as I looked around, my anxiety on moving out on my own slowly eased.There was no dankeh to attack me. I was safe.Tension bleeding away from my shoulders, I moved toward the dining area, where I expected that he was already there.I couldn't forget the slight reaction when I told him that I didn't want to go outside the day before. Thinking about it made m
Alpha CEO’s baby mama You should go.
Rose’s POVI turned back to meet Rael's gaze. Only to stop in my tracks the moment I did.Under the lights, his gaze seemed…molten. It was the most beautiful thing.“Just to clear your mind.” He said, stepping forward. Goosebumps arose the moment his skin brushed against mine, forcing my breath to hitch.Instantly I swallowed through it, hoping that he didn't notice a thing.‘Calm the hell down Rose.’ I spoke to myself. Whatever reactions I was battling with at the moment could be addressed later. Now at this moment I needed to focus.I chuckled lightly, turning back to focus on the flowers “That's not really a good answer you know. My mind is clear enough.” I replied.“Isn't it?” his voice rumbled beside me.“This is the first time you’ve come down since, to meet me no less. It's a good sign."I opened my mouth to talk about going with Adian previously to the library, only to stop in my tracks.If I did tell him, would he be slightly envious again? In the end I sighed.There was no
Alpha CEO’s baby mama The interrogation.
Rael POVOnly the quiet rumble of the car followed me on the drive back to my company.My gaze remained fixated on the road ahead, on the city lights that passed through. None of it mattered when there were more important things to do.I left her whilst she was sleeping. The reminder of the peace on her face, the short sadness I saw earlier when talking about her parents…‘No. Now is not the time to be distracted, Rael.’ I fisted the car tighter to cut away my thoughts.I finally stopped, entering the nearest parking space before coming out.Now, it was time.Every second that passed increased the tension that floated through every part of my body as the elevator moved slowly. I took in deep breaths, stoking the anger that I needed for this.The weight of all I had to do came down in full force. How many times had others reached dead ends? How many times had we come up with nothing? Too many to count.But after Felicity's words, my mind was further drawn into determination.I was goi
Alpha CEO’s baby mama The new plan.
Rael’s POVThe laughs faded with every step I took out. No matter how hard I tried avoiding it, I couldn’t deny the strain.My hands were tightly curled into fists, the strain almost painful, yet I never stopped. My jaw remained as clenched as ever as I stepped back into the quiet place filled with all the scientists fliterring about.The man's last words right before I left echoed in my head.“How long can you last protecting those around you?”It shouldn’t have shaken me the way it did. Had it been months ago that such a threat was passed my way, I would have pushed it away without a second thought.But now… Now, things were different. There was far too much at stake. And there was a chance that whoever did this was aware.“A dead end, I suppose?”Mira stepped into my line of vision, eyes questioning before she stopped in her tracks. She looked me over and I could tell how she saw my tension from the way her expression changed to something more worried.“Rael, are you–“I cut her of
Alpha CEO’s baby mama Where is Rael?
Rose's POVIt had been three days.Three days since I wandered the place with solely Adian as my company. Three days since I wasn't allowed to hear from George or Lily or do so much as go to the other side. Three days since he left that night and hadn't come back since.It wasn't so difficult to count.I sighed against the plush softness of my mattress. I still caught up with Kayla and Jade. As they had promised, they were planning their visit during the weekend, which left two days more. I had made many attempts to clear my mind in anticipation, whether through reading or scrolling through the Internet and occasionally ranting at Adian. No matter how hard I tried, my head always went back to Rael.Our last meeting had been held on a cliffhanger and now three days had passed without hearing from him.Was he in the office? Had he travelled? Was there something wrong?Whether he was several miles away or a state away made no difference. He wasn't there, and I couldn't contact him.His
Alpha CEO’s baby mama What do we have here?
Rose's POVFacing the large building, doubt and worry came into my mind, once again questioning if this was the right thing to do.When I told Adian, he looked surprised, yet there was no other overarching expression or sign that I caught. To my surprise, he agreed to take me here. And now…I swallowed in trepidation, the Albrecht Medicals building backing me imposing. I swallowed thickly at the sight.I had only been here for a total of three times, majority of those times out of simmering rage or fierce determination. There was no need to be shy considering all of that, and yet for the second time since I faced this building, a curling feeling bubbled in my gut.Now I was here for a completely different reason.There was a slim possibility - no, a hauntingly vast possibility - that he wasn't here. If I had to step in, I would also have to talk to them and ask them for him.The thought alone brought heat to my cheeks and that same fluttering feeling I pushed away as I always did. I s
Alpha CEO’s baby mama A black card.
Rose’s POVI remained standing, completely intimidated by this hulk of a man that stood in front of me. Though relatively young, he looked slightly older - more mature compared to all the others I had been around, even Rael. It made it even more intimidating for me to face him. Not to mention his voice. His voice held the same commanding authority I heard in Rael. In spite of his different appearance, his aura held that commanding spirit. For a moment, I wondered if Rael and him were brothers but pushed the thought away for another day.His eyes were penetrating in an unnerving way. Although the arrogant tone wasn’t present, this only seemed full of much respect. That, coupled with his appearance, struck an even further sense of respect.Rael.Right. I had to know where on earth Rael had gone.I sucked in a breath before I spoke.“I'm looking for Rael. Adian brought me here because you'd know where he is,” I said.Inside, I winced. The way I phrased my words almost made it seem accus
