I walked out of the fitting room in a pair of bikinis. Very comfortable ones. A bandeau bikini and boy short. I ain't type to reveal my body parts to men, I hate it. "Common Rose." Lucian was already in the pool, waiting.I have always wanted to learn swimming from my late mom who was an expert. But now, I am learning it from him. That guy. I walked up to the pool and stood by it's shallow. "Common now." "Are you sure we should do this. I think it's really late now." "It's just the two of us. You will be in class tomorrow, and we won't have time for this, or even talk. So common, let's have fun. Just the two of us." "Okay, if you insist." .He held my waist, not letting go of me. I gulped down nothing, getting obviously nervous. "Get comfortable with the pool first. You look really nervous." "Of course it's my first time, I have to feel nervous. I am also scared of drowning." "You shouldn't be. I am right behind you and I won't let you drown. Trust me." He said. Yes, I sh
Lucian was really shocked that he had to hold her shoulder to know if she was really the one who first kissed him without he acting at all. He should have done this a long time ago to win her over.Roseline quickly unlocked with him, then bowed her head in embarrassment. "What was your confirmation?" Lucian quickly questioned to make things between them less awkward. "I... nothing. It's getting darker now and I am getting cold and tired too." She quickly said and Lucian grinned. Just a step at a time. She wasn't aware of the double ladder in front of her, she hit her leg, and tripped. "Ahh!" Lucian was quiver to catch her. "Careful there." She gasped, then lifts up her head to look at Lucian. "Thank you.""Whoa!" "What?!" She batts her lashes in confusion. "Your eyes." "M..my eyes?" Lucian swept away the wet hair from her face to take a look at her bright scarlet eyes. "How come I didn't see this before?" He questioned, taking a look at her eyes with a smile on his face.
Roseline hopped out of Lucian's car while the her friends went with Perry in his car. "I guess it's goodnight then." Lucian said and she nodded her head. "Goodnight." She stood by the door and waved at him. "Oh yes." Lucian remembered the one thing he had always wanted to do whenever he gets the opportunity to drop her off at her house. He quickly walked towards her and kissed her forehead. Roseline face turned pink as a reaction. She was surprised and her face shows it. "Goodnight Rose. I will see you tomorrow." He walked back into his car, bade her goodbye, then zoomed off. Then did Perry's car came around and the girls walked out of it. "Bye Perry." Lizzie waved at him, while Jennifer folded her arms grumpily. "Bye Lizzie, bye Jennifer." "Hmph!" Jennifer turned around and walked in. "You should try getting used to that." Roseline chuckled. "Yes I will. Goodnight girls." He zoomed off the hostel block. "That grumpy girl." Lizzie walked in to scold jennifer. .Lizzie wa
Lizzie stood up and went to get the door. Opening it, she met an unfamiliar face behind it. "hello." She greeted. She wondered what the girl wants and besides, it's quite late already. "Hello, I am Berry." "Berry?" She frowned. She had heard of that name before somewhere. But where? Or was it a name mentioned by Jessica or was it Rose who made mention of that name?"Who is it?" Jennifer asked. "It's a girl named Berry." "Berry?!" She stood up on her feet immediately. She does remembers Roseline mentioning that name over and over again with detest in her words. Berry and Tony. She walked towards the door, pulled Lizzie away and attended to her herself. "Hello I am Berry." "Hello, what can we do for you." "I heard my sister, Roseline stays at this block." "Roseline? Ummm...not here dear. Maybe the other room." Berry made a poker face. Roseline doesn't stay here? Or is she known by another name or identity. Cause her roommate sure look very certain of what she had seen. She had
*three months after*Lucian was in his car, on his way to class when he heard a ring from his phone. He turned on the Bluetooth and picked up the call. "Hello?" "Lucian?" Lucian widened his eyes in shock. That's the voice of his father. He is back from his business trip already? That's good news. "Dad? You are back already?" "Yes i am son." He answered. "And i expect you to come home by tonight, we have to talk." "Sure father. I will be home by tonight, 9 sharp." "Okay son." He cut off the call with a smile on his face. His father had been overseas for so long now. His mother must be so exited. His phone rings out again as he immediately picked it up. "Hello." "Are you still driving?" She heard Rose's voice. "Yes I am. I will soon arive now..." His car made a rough screech, as he made a stop roughly. "Hey!?" He yelled at the man whom he almost hit with his car. "Lucian, are you okay?" Roseline panicked. "Yes I am. I guess I will be late to class today. I will call you ba
"hey pretty girls!" Perry called Jennifer and Lizzie who were busy walking quietly. "Why are you here?" Jennifer frowned. Lucian had warned them not to being Perry along, and besides, he is a fun ruiner and more, she doesn't like him. "To walk you both home." He shrugged. "And your car?" "That is going to be staying there for sometime. It's not like someone is going to steal the car. And if someone steals it, I will buy a new one. Common girls, let me walk you both home." "No, thank you." Lizzie and Jennifer said in unison. Perry was quick to figure out what was going on. This people are trying to ditch him again. Lucian and Rose are perhaps going somewhere and the girls are to tag along. But Lucian had warned them not to tell him about it. Well, he is used to that. "I am coming with you two." "No" jennifer snapped at him. "But I swear I am not going to go to an unknown girl and have a night stand with her. I will just sit down while you both hang out with your friend and p
"now, take it off." She giggled loudly. "Okay fine, I will go get rid of it." She climbed the ladder off the pool. She wasn't going to do it in front of him, so she got herself behind a corner to change her clothes. "Lucian, Lucian!" Lizzie quickly ran towards him with two phones with her. "Where is Rose?" She looked quite in a hurry as she stared at Lucian. "She is changing." "Oh, she needs to see this. Where is she changing?" Lucian pointed to the particular corner Rose was, and quickly Lizzie ran towards that spot. "What a gossiper." He chuckled. *"You won't believe what I just found out Rose." Lizzie was in a mood for gossip as she stood in front of me in a runny mouth. She is the running mouth of us three. She is always updated about everything. "What's up girl?" "While checking my result, Nina sent me something really disturbing." "What's that?" I also sounded interested. "Is anything going on between your father and stepsister?" She and Jennifer had seen the passp
How in the world did he find me here? I have hid myself for so many months, and this bastard choose to find me instead. I wouldn't have bothered if it was Berry, but Tony, I never wanted him to find me at all."I own no one Tony," "I own you. You should have known that ever since you decide to step into my parents house." "What a psycho." Lucian spoke out. "You said it yourself that she is your stepsister, then what's this own or not own, do you think this is a porn show?" "Do not meddle in our business Lucian Desmond. This is a family matter." He snapped at him. Family? I wanted to scoff. Those people had never considered me to be one of them. And this idiot dare call me a family member? And besides, I have nothing to do with that disgusting family anymore. They are all disgusting people. "Oh really?" Lucian turned to look at me. "Rose, do you want me to handle it the best way, or..." "I want you to handle him Lucian. I don't want to ever see him in my sight again." I spoke up.
Driving into the garage, a row of cars were packed in, getting the two quite surprised. "You never told me you had some visitors." Roseline said to Lucian who shook his head in response. "I never did." The cars looked very recognisable, but his mom never told him she was coming over. It was certainly his mother's car. "I think my mom is here. She never told me she is coming today." Roseline got stunned. "Your mom?" "Common, let's go in." He took her hand, but she was quite hesitant to go in with him. "Your mom is in there, waiting for you to come back home." She muttered, still extremely nervous. "Are you nervous?" He smirked. She turned to look at him one more time, before nodding. "Don't be. She won't do anything." "Are you sure?" Mrs Desmond walked out of the house with her PA. "So you actually bring in the gold digger?"The both of them turned to look at her. She stood by the door, staring at the two who stood still. "Mom?" "I was told that you now have a girl, a go
Roseline left him on the floor still in shock. Lucian's car packed by, Roseline got in and he drove away."That bitch!" Tony eyes almost sprouted from it's socket. He squeezed his phone angrily, then tossed it away. "You are still addicted to her. I can see she doesn't love you any longer. You are no one to her." Berry got out to the house to see her brother on the floor. She picked up his broken phone, walked back to him to give him. "She is no longer a family. She just rejected us as her family. I am sure you know you can rape her if you want to now. No one is gonna tell you out if it." Tony scoffed. "Why? Because she is with Lucian now? Your crush is now with your enemy." He stood on his feet. "I'll get her the way I want to. I don't need anyone's advice to take back my girl." "Your girl?" She snickered, as the man walked in. "I’ll kill your girl." She muttered, staring at nothing. She knows everything now. She know her father sleeps with her everyday, and now, the only thing
A frown took over Michael's face, as he glared at the girl who seated like she was the owner of the home. Did she just call him a whore?"What did you just call me?" "Oh, you want me to repeat it? I just called you a whore. A male bitch." He angrily stood up to slap her, but before he could, Tony already stood up in front of him, and he ended up slapping him instead. Roseline smiked, moved back a little bit, to watch the drama between the two men. "How dare you protect her even after calling me with such." His veins bulged on his head as he spoke angrily to his aon. "I cannot allow you to hit her beautiful face, and besides she is right when she said you are not her father, and you cannot command her and ask her to do what she doesn't wish to do." His father scoffed, "What?" "You cannot hit her. It's against the law." "You kid." He pointed angrily at his face. "I natured Roseline till now. I took her into my home, took care of her like my own child, and this is how she repays
8pm...Lucian dropped Roseline off in front of a huge gate. "Are you sure everything is gonna be okay?" She nodded, smiling at him. "Yeah, and besides we really need to get this done. I have stayed hidden for months. Not anymore." "Okay. But if anything goes wrong, don't forget to call me immediately. I will come rushing to you immediately."She nodded, smiling at him. He kissed her, before getting into his car, driving away. Roseline turned to look at the gate in front of her. It felt like a huge stone was thrown down her stomach. She doesn't wish to be here, and at the same time, wished to get this done with these family who actually aren't her family. She walked through the gate to see someone she never had expected to meet first. Tony. It turned out he had arrived for the past three hours, waiting for the girl to show up. Seeing her now brought a wide smile on his face. "You are finally here." Rose frowned deeply at him. He should be the last person she should be meetin
Five days after....Rosemary hadn't been attending class, nor came to school since the incident. Roseline had been staying with Lucian for three days, before she could go back to her hostel. She had always been in the lookout for Rosemary who might show up anytime soon. Lucian had also kept his eyes open and also in secret looking for ways to change Roseline's fate since Clarabelle wouldn't tell him how. He saw Roseline one day at the library all by herself. She looked depressed, same way she had been since these last few days. She wouldn't talk much, instead, always alert looking out for Rosemary. She looked scared, and it had been making him extremely worried. "Rose?" He sat in front of her, saw the book she had on her desk. "If I can't be a normal supernatural, I can still read about supernaturals.' She muttered. 'Fangs and Roses.' Which was the name of the biok. "Rose, how are you?" She raised her brows to look at him, then smiled. "As usual. Always in the lookout for Rose
Tony was looking odd and tattered, as he struggled to the students houses to locate Cole. He could believe she was right under his nose. After searching everywhere for her, he was actually here under a guy. That bitch! He thought she was always with Lucian, then why is it Cole now? "Such a slut." He muttered, staggering to the exact door he knew Cole stays. He angrily banged on the door. "Get the fuck out, Cole!" He banged again. "If you are really a man, I'd advice you to take your shit off my woman's body." He slammed his hand again on the door, and this time Cole opened the door. He walked out, glaring at the man in front of him. "Who the fuck are you and what the fuck do you want here? Who do you think you are causing a ruckus in my house?" "So you are the one I hear fucking my woman." "The fuck is your woman, you tattered thug? What do you want?" "I heard you are an hot shot and you loved hitting on other people's women." Cole seem more irritated at his presence. He do
"Rosemary's mother is just like her father— addicted to monsters. She wanted to know truly if monsters really existed. She also wanted to show the whole world that monsters does walk around humans like normal beings, so she created a glass." Clarabelle paused. "A glass?" Roseline raised her brows. "Yes, a glass which could see humans by which they were. Then, the queen was just someone who liked touring around the human world, going out to fun with her husband, the king. She is just the one who enjoys fun, and she saw Rosemary's mother as someone who can show her the ways of a humans, but Rosemary's mother had other motives." "Of course she didn't tell Rosemary's mother that she is the queen of the supernaturals. Instead, she told her she was a foreigner from another country who came to Australia to tour the surrounding area, but I guessed Pauline was doubtful." "Pauline?" Rosemary muttered. "Yeah, that's her name. I tell you, she is not her name....well, as I was saying, Rosemar
"Breathe in, breathe out." Clarabelle led Roseline on how to transform back into her human self. "You own this. Just think you are back the way you always are. Relax. " Roseline's eyes were shut closed as she did what she was told o do...and it worked. She was back being a human again. She hugged herself happily; she loved being a human and not a demon queen or whatever it was called."Clara, I need to talk to you." Lucian called the woman who was still sitting beside Roseline. "Alone." He added, walking out of the room into the living room. Clarabelle stood up, went to meet the guy who stood restlessly. "You called for me, Lucian?" "Clara, you said something earlier on, which I couldn't fail to grab." She raised her brows in question."What is it?" "Her fate can be changed." Clarabelle shook her head, looking away. "If you know anything Clara, please say it. If she can actually change her fate, you can say it." "Her fate can't be changed Lucian. It's impossible. She is the quee
"Hey man, drop the gun." Rosemary also said to her father, nervously. "Dad, please drop the fucking gun!" he angrily points the gun at his daughter too, glaring at her. "You know I could easily cock this gun, and shoot a drill on each and every one of you. You people are just not believing me ehen I say demons are real." "Okay okay, fine, we believe you. We believe demons are real. Now drop the gun and let us solve this amicably like men. Just let go of the gun." "Will you shut the fuck up!" He yelled at them angrily. "You people should shut the fuck up." He repeated, still pointing the gun at them. "Even if I show you people over and over again, you won't believe me. I am sure of that. You will call me crazy. But hey, look at me, I am crazy. I get crazier everyday all because of this demon." He sniffed. "Do you have any idea what she did to me?" He beat his chest twice. "She killed my wife. I caught this demon in her full wings, terrible claws, tearing my wife into half. I told
