Stinging pain, aching shot through Rosalie's body as she rolled on the bed. A whimper escaped her lips and her eyes snapped open as her body shook.

A gasp escaped her lips and she sat up on the bed at once.

"Rosie —" the voice called and she whipped her head to see Alexander. Her lips trembled as the banging in her head grew stronger.

"Sir," her lips quivered and Alexander reached out for her at once. "Rosalie," he pulled her to him, his hands on her back trying to calm her down.

The smell of antiseptic and artificial fragrance coupled with Alexander's scent found their way into Rosalie's nostrils and she gripped Alexander tighter. "sir," tingles of pain shot through her arm but she ignored as she relaxed into the comfort he gave.

"It's okay," Alexander whispered as he rubbed her back. "I'm here, you're safe" Alexander whispered soothingly when her body still trembled.

The scene in the office clouded Rosalie's mind and she gripped tighter to him. Her foggy brain couldn't let her decip

She panted as she tried to catch her breath while Alexander gazed at her.He released a soft and muffled breath on her neck and pulled her closer. "Does any part of your body hurt?""No," Rosalie whispered as she ruffled his hair.He was her boss but she loved the silky feeling of his hair."Are you sure?" Alexander raised his head to her and they locked eyes. They both stared into

    Rosalie's POVI sniffed and leaned into Mr. Alexander as he led the way. I gawked around in awe of his house. We finally reached his study and he pushed the door open.At once, the smell of books filled my nostrils and I let my eyes dart around. The study was a large one, almost a pristine office. It was immaculate and a large shelf of books was on the left.There were two chairs and a desk in the room.One chair was in front of the desk and a lone lamp was on the desk. It was still on.I bet he forgot it there."Sit," he mumbled and took his hands off me and suddenly, I felt alone. I sniffed as he walked around before he settled in front of a computer I didn't notice."Use your phone, connect to the house WiFi and entertain yourself while I work.""I said I want to help you to work" I voiced out and he turned to me. "You're still frail Rosie, your arm is burnt, you shouldn't stress it.""I'm not," I mumbled and walked to him. "I'm your secretary and you paid me ahead already, I shou

    A gasp ran out of my lips and I ducked my head backwards as our lips caressed in a rhythm. His tongue moved further into my mouth and my arms went around his hair pulling him closer to me.I was beginning to explore his mouth when he broke the kiss. "Xan—" I licked my lips as he gazed at me with eyes that had turned scarlet. He clicked his tongue, ruffled his hair and moved back leaving a considerable distance and I wondered what was wrong. "I don't—" he shifted on his seat and leaned into the chair.I could read his restraint.It was evident.But why?His hands reached out for mine and he grabbed it. "Come closer," he breathed out and I leaned into him. His hands held mine tighter as I sniffed in his cologne.My insides fluttered and a blush rose to my cheeks at our closeness. It was overwhelming and enticing."You smell like me," he lowered his head and sniffed my scent. "But yours is magical," he chortled and stared into my face.My eyes met with his and I blinked rapidly as I st

    (Mild sex scenes ahead)"Xander," muffled breaths escaped Rosalie's lips and she gripped Alexander's attire tighter. His lips explored her nipples, him goading her at intervals. As his lips worked, his hands moved further into her dress leaving Rosalie in an endless spark of feelings.Her insides tightened and heat skittered across her body as his tongue moved around her."Sir…" she gripped his hair tighter and Alexander paused. He raised his head to her and seeing her state, a smirk danced on his lips.He wanted to do more. He wanted her to feel more. His desire was to put her in an endless state of pleasure.And he was willing to."Stay calm," he pinned down her shaky legs and placed wet kisses on her arm. Satisfied with her hairs responding to his touch, he moved his way downwards.His lips and hand crawled down her tummy and butterflies danced in Rosalie's inside. She threw her hair backwards as she moved on the bed to give him more access.He was affecting her in a way no one eve

    "You have to leave," Alexander's words came quicker than he guessed."Huh?" Rosalie's brows crumpled as he walked briskly to her. "It's a—" Alexander exhaled as he thought of the lie.Collins could be there any moment from then. He had to make her leave the house. "The call you received is an important one and I'd have to leave the house," the lie rolled out of his mouth to his astonishment."Then, can I stay here? I—""No," Alexander cut her short before she continued. He had to tell her to leave before she asked questions. If she inquired, he wouldn't be able to give a good excuse.And then, Collins could be there any moment.Rosalie sighed. She sniffed and bit her lip. The determination was clear in his voice. She had to leave. But she was just about to eat.She tore her eyes away from him and stood up. "Okay.""Good, my driver will take you," Alexander reached out for her hand but she didn't take it. She wanted to stay in his arms. She was supposed to. After those moments on the

    Alexander's POVThe question hit me. I stopped as she bore holes into my skin. Her cognac eyes held desperation and craved answers.Why did she ask that? Does she know about the issue between the Raymond's family? I bet not."What do you mean?" I released a scoff and took my eyes to the files. "get to your office and start working" my voice came out authoritative like I wanted."No," she voiced out and I forced my orbs back to her. "Are you, sir?""Rosalie," my grip around the pen I held tightened and I tried so hard not to clench my jaw.Why did she ask that? I am trying to fix everything. She shouldn't know about it. "Just get to work.""Then it's true," she whimpered and batted her lashes. "Sophia was right, is that it?""You met Sophia?" I asked and she sniffed."It's not about me meeting Sophia. Are you fucking engaged to her?" She threw the question at me before she could stop herself."Don't yell at me, Rosalie" I warned, my tone icy than I ever wanted. Everything I did was fo

    "I'm leaving," Rosalie mumbled and Alexander raised his head to her. His eyes darkened the moment his orbs rested on her face. After Collins left, she worked in her office.Seeing her eyes puffy and the eye bag with the dark circles around her eyes, his chest tightened. "Rosalie," he called but she took a step backwards, her arms around herself."Bye, sir," she said and turned around leaving him in a state of dilemma. He was just about to explain things to her when Collins walked in.He had to. He knew he should. But he couldn't. Not after the puzzle he was in.Collins was back and would be on the watch at the moment. If he knew she was his weakness, things would take a new turn.The door slammed close and he ran his hands through his hair. He shut his eyes and took a deep breath. Everything was driving him crazy and making his head bang.He grabbed the files and took his eyes to his wristwatch. He had a load of work to do.The ringing of his phone made him stop all action at once. H

    Alexander fisted his hand and pulled off her. "So—" he turned to Rosalie realizing she was still in there Rosalie blinked rapidly, gazed at him and turned around. She didn't need to see that anymore. It shattered her into pieces."Don't kiss me, Sophia," Alexander kept his eyes on Rosalie until she was out of sight."I'm sorry," Sophia rolled her eyes as she tried to fight back her scoff seeing his eyes were on that secretary. She did that purposely to spite her. She only wanted to hug him.But she changed her mind."I am ready for the date," she leaned down and helped adjust the collar, "Are you ready for our date, Alex? It's today."Alexander's jaw clenched. He hated that she was acting all sweet. He disliked the fact that he was about to go on a date with her.He detested the face of Rosalie. Her unshed tears ached his heart."Sit," he forced himself to say. "I'll be done with this and we'll go," he mumbled with a tightened chest.————Alexander tugged on his hair in the car. The

    There she was. The love of his life. Her happiness written all over her face all she watered the flowers. It was only a few days after the engagement that Alexander found out she loved gardening and he loved watching her admire the flowers."They smell so nice," Rosalie turned to him with a big smile and Alexander chuckled, his eyes running down her tummy.That had a life in her.The tummy having another life in her. His happiness knew no bounds when the doctor declared it to them.It was one month after the engagement that they broke the news to them and he had never been that excited."Come on, stop staring at me," Rosalie rolled her eyes, her cheeks turning crimson red and Alexander laughed as he walked towards her."I can't wait to see the baby. I really want to," He muttered as he thought of it. He'd get to be a father. Be a good father that he never had. Nothing would be more fulfilling.But would he be able to treat the baby right?"It'll like me, wouldn't it?""Oh, I don't lik

    "Why are you doing this to me, Aria?" I drawled as I stared at my best friend who had her face fully into her phone, "Aria?""What?" She jerked her face up suddenly and I spotted the crimson blush on her face and my brows knitted up, "what the hell is going on, huh?""What?" She rolled her eyes and quickly switched off her phone screen which heightened my suspicion. It's been three weeks since we went to visit Sophia.Her mum gave me a mouthful which made Xander visibly angry and when the woman didn't stop talking, Xander had to show her my wounds that her daughter inflicted on me.Collins was on the run because apart from the fact that Xander wanted to tear him into pieces, the authorities were looking for him.And then, my wound had almost healed up and things were starting to look good and we were out in the restaurant. Aria and I and we have been talking for a whole ass hour but she wouldn't even hear me."What'd you say?" She flashed me a fake smile, "I was just busy looking at s

    Fucked four time in a day. My stitches hurting yet I still went on. Sleeping in the arms of the man I love. I rolled on the bed and back into his warm arms that were waiting for me."Good morning, my gorgeous rose," Xander whispered and I could swear butterflies danced in my tummy. My cheeks heated up so much I was sure it'd boil an egg and Xander released a small laugh behind me."It always amuse me.""What?" I asked and at once he rolled over until he was lying over me and I released a wince."Oh my," Xander moved backwards at once, "Sorry about that."“What amuses you?" I confronted with a pout and he laughed as he settled beside me, his hands raking my hair."Your shyness yet boldness." He locked eyes with me, a smile forming on his lips. "I always look forward to seeing you bold yet shy."All of his words added to the heated feeling inside of me. Warmth. Love. I smiled and leaned into him, "I'm after all full of surprises."He chuckled as he nodded, "True. Now let's get you to ea

    Rosalie's POV"I can manage to walk and you know that," I rolled my eyes when Xander snorted after I spoke. I was in his arms. He was taking me inside the house even after I tried to work on my own."Do you know what you've gone through?" Xander rolled his eyes, "I'm surprised you're perfectly fine and it makes me happy. I wouldn't have been able to deal with it if I had lost you."My cheeks heated up and I leaned into him, "now that's enough, please put me down."Xander chuckled, his eyes darting around since we were in the living room and gently, he placed me on the two seater couch and at once settled beside me, pulling my head onto his chest, "I owe you a proper apology.""I am sorry." He breathed out and exhaled while I stared up at him. I could count the number of times he had apologized to me before and how hard it's been. But that moment was different, he was saying everything thoughtfully."For wanting to let us go. Believe me I felt horrible. Thought you'll hate me. I didn't

    Alexander's POV"Rosie…" I called as I took a step while she glared at me with eyes full of pain."Really? You want to live in my memories and not stay with me huh?" She shook her head before moving towards me and at once her fist made contact with my chest."Really huh? Really? It's better to leave me huh? That's it? You don't care if I live in pain huh?" She continued, her fist driving into my chest repeatedly as her tears ran down before while I remained glued to my spot.I didn't deserve her. Not once have I ever deserved her."Rosie, stop it," her mum rushed towards her and grabbed her arm and I finally got out of my thoughts when the punching stopped."It's okay," I let out and sighed, "let her hit me. I deserve it.""Thank god you know!" Rosie screamed before sending a final punch to my chest and then her tears dropped. "You're such an idiot, Xander.""You know everything except how to console a woman," she sniffed and leaned into me, "how can you want to leave huh?" Her voice t

    "He won't even pick up? Wow, wow," I chuckled and fought back my tears as I tried Xander's number once more.He wants to leave the city and me… wow. I shook my head as I reminisced on his words. We're in the hospital since I was brought there right after my attack."He wants to leave," I sobbed once more."I told you!" Aria screamed and hit the wall, "he wasn't worth it! You lost your father and all he could think of is to leave! Goddamn it! I hate him more!""Xander," I sniffed as I dialed the number again, "he's not picking up.""He won't," mum cut in and sniffed, "I… made him go away.""What do you mean?""I gave an outburst right after Raymond died. He's the cause of everything and I just wanted him away. I… I made him promise to leave you alone after all the chaos he caused.""What?" I gripped my chest as I fought back my tears, "how's he at fault?""Sophia came after you because of him! You were hit because of him! You were almost killed. Got shot! It was because of him that you

    White ceiling coatings that my eyes were almost used to. The blank point where I try to recognise the ceiling was gone now because I understood it.With the pain hammering in my chest and the sniffles plus the deep scent that hit my nostrils, I needed no soothsayer to tell me I was in the hospital.My hands shook at that moment and then the memories came rushing like a wind into my head."Rosie,"The familiar feminine voice called and I whipped my head to the voice at once, "mum.""Rosie," mum called panickedly before her hands tightened around me and I let out a whimper, "I'm sorry," mum sniffed, "are you okay, are you okay?""Are you okay?" A tear dropped down her eyelids as she watched me, "should I call the doctor huh?""I… I," I gulped as I glanced around, "water. I need… water.""Here," I heard the friendly feminine voice and at once the glass cup met my lips and I gulped down water while I stared at Aria. She had a warm smile on her face while she watched me."I'm so glad you'r

    "Take one step and I pull the trigger here," Sophia warned, her voice laced with anger. "You think I brought you here to see him? No. I just want him to see you drop dead. I want to show him what he gets for choosing someone else over me.""Sophia, you are crossing the line," Xander gritted, his fist clenching and his eyes pinned on me in fear, concern and the one that warmed my heart, in love."Rosie, stay still. You are not dying," he assured me and I heard his voice tremble at the end. Something my Xander doesn't do.Fear. He was in fear too."How could you?" Sophia started, her voice distant and barely audible, "choose this thing over me,""She's just s fucking poor girl. I am way better!""I don't love you!" Xander yelled and took a step and at once, Sophia raised the gun and fired into the air, "take one step and the next bullet goes into her head," she glanced at her wristwatch and exhaled."Remember I am always vulnerable with you Xander.

    Headache. Blurry vision. It was what welcomed me as my eyes fluttered open and at once I gasped.Where was I huh? I… I was with Raphael and suddenly… My throat went dry with the realization. I've been kidnapped. At once, I let out a scream and almost immediately, a hand drove onto my face, hard."Don't you scream bitch!"The familiar voice. Sophia. I panted as my eyes darted around and I realized we were in a car and were still in the airport. The glasses of the car were tinted and… they couldn't see meTurning to Sophia, hee face held a lazy look and she had her eyes shut while I accessed her. How'd she come to the airport? How'd she know I was leaving? Does she know Xander is here?And where was Collins? Did he assist her?Heavens. There was no answer. My eyes moved around the car as urgency seeped in my bones. Raphael told me we had only minutes left and it was a private jet. We should have left.We should have if not for this maniac woman."Why did you kidnap me? Why the hell am I
