A week laterRoseline was In front of her father, staying on her knees. She had been there for a while, waiting for her father to just look at her and have pity.After an hour of kneeling, Michael couldn't take it anymore. He turned his head, staring at the girl in question in annoyance."What?! What do you want exactly, rose?" He yelled at her, but the girl didn't move an inch. This is her mother here. She needed the money before it was too late. Her mother cannot see her here, begging her father, or she might get upset with her."My mother has a disease, and she needs...""That's none of my business." He cuts her off, smoking his tobacco."Please sir. She has a heart disease, and she needs immediate attention," she begged again, almost crying. She had promised herself not to shed a tear in front of this man or his family, but it looked like her eyes were doing otherwise. She just couldn't let her mother die, could she?She had watched her grandfather die; her mother would not die to
A few years later....Roseline locked herself in her room, busy with her computer. She took sip from the juice on the desk, before typing really fast on the computer. "Common." That was the word she kept repeating to herself. "Rose!!" She heard her name down her room, but she never gave up on what she was doing. She continued with her work, applying for something very important. "Rose!" This time, this person calling her was getting closer to her. She quickly paused all she was doing, close her laptop, hiding it well from her. "What are you doing?" She quickly stood up on her feet and turned around to meet the unhappy glares on her. "I was...umm.." she pointed to the drink and the food on her table. "Eating." "Eating uh? Were you pretending not to hear us?" Jessica scowled at her but Agnes didn't even batt an eye as she spoke. "I was mouth full, so I couldn't talk." "Where is my purse?" Jessica got to the point. "I don't know." She shook her head. Why would she know where h
The next dayRoseline's eyes were closed in prayer. And after a while, she opened them back, opened her laptop, and then went back to check her application.After a brief moment of silence, she suddenly screamed out.She jumped around her room in excitement, hugging her laptop like it was her loved one. She just got the scholarship she had always wished for. And at what school? The best school in the city. The school she had always wished to go to. She quickly dropped her laptop and accepted the admission with happiness."Only if mom and grandpa were here. We would have celebrated with some good barbecues." She closed her eyes sadly, greatly missing her mother. "Mom, grandpa, this is for you. I am finally going to school to make you both proud." She muttered to herself and ran to look through the small window in her small room."I finally got it!" She yelled to the sky happily. "I finally did." She chuckled. "Rose!!" She heard Jessica's call from the stairs.Oh, now I wish she accept
"Common dude, chill. It's not like i don't have the money to care for them." Lucian folded his arm, leaning to the door."Lucian, you have a lot of girlfriend. Tina, Sarah, Liliana, Lita, Isabella, Monica, and a lot more. Now you have Taylor? Don't you get tired of being a playboy? And besides, is your libido that high?" "Will you believe me if I told you I am a virgin?" "Anyone in their right senses, even your mother or your father wouldn't believe you if you told them you are a virgin.""I am. I am a virgin. Accept that." He began to walk away. "No you are not." Perry disagreed with him, waking behind him with his hands tucked in his pockets. "I have seen you kiss so many lips before, and you think I would believe you are a virgin.""Shush Perry. You have such a loud voice, someone might here you. I am a v, accept that. My interest in girls doesn't mean I am a playboy. I just respects women, and would try every possible way to make them happy. They all deserved that." "So respec
Roseline walked down the balcony, tracing her room number. And at last she found it. "Room 39. Yup, that's it." She placed her hand on the door to knock on it, but instead it opened itself, revealing two girls jumping on the bed like kids. He stared at the two girls in confusion, before checking the room number if she was right. Maybe it was room 36. But it wasn't, it was still room 39. "Hello." She greeted, then did the two notice the girl by the door. "Oh, you must be our new roomie!" One of the girls said cheerfully. "Yeah. Roseline Douglas. student on scholarship." "Oh wow, that's cool. Common in already." She walked in with her stuffs. The two girls sat beside her in smiles. Her room mates with a good sense of humor. "I am Jennifer and she is Lizzy." The first girl introduced. "And you are welcomed to OUR room," the one name Lizzy jovially said, referring to the three of them."Thank you." She appreciated. "And that's your bed." Jennifer pointed at the bunk bed in front o
"So?" Rosemary dropped her luggage looking around the small room she sees herself in. She reeked of prestige and she did acted like one. Irritated to everything and very prideful, and the three girls couldn't think less, she is from a rich home. But what's she doing here? She is supposed to be in perhaps her personal house or a big apartment. "Where is my bed?"Over there." Lizzie pointed to the lower bunk. Rosemary avoided them, moving closer to the bed. She took off her shades and her shoes, before she stood barefooted. Roseline already settled on her bed, unpacking her clothes into the wardrobe room. Jennifer thought it's right for Rosemary to know who they were, so she courageously spoke to the rich girl. "So my name is Jennifer, and she is Lizzie." And to Roseline, " she is..." "Roseline. You have said her name earlier on. Two roses. Got that. Now, where is the bathroom?" Lizzie pointed to the bathroom, only for Rosemary to go in and ignore them like they all weren't from th
Roseline and her friends went shopping all afternoon, going back home with three bags of new clothes and shoes; thanks to Lizzie's rich background. Roseline got prepared for her birthday celebration, which she had never done for over six years. "Guys, are you ready?" Lizzie questioned happily. She was also clad in in a short Royal blue sleeveless gown, and a high silver heels. "Yeah!" Jennifer replied, also putting on her heels. Roseline looked intensively at herself in the mirror. Her face, to her petite body. *I have grown up to become an adult. A beautiful adult. Today is my birthday, this wonderful day. It had been months since I left hell and ever since then I felt freedom. And I hope I never see them again. Never again. ‘Mom, I hope you are seeing this. It's the day I become an adult. Please guard me to the right path...wherever you are..." "Ohh," Jennifer placed her hand on my shoulder. I could see her wide smiles from the mirror. Then did Lizzie the rich girl came by a
I made a gasp, turned my head to look at my friends who were already grinning at me. A man is talking to me now. Why can't he go to Lizzie or Jessica, why me? "Your first catch." Jennifer whispered to me. I turned my head to look at the man right beside me. He was full beared and he was in a black suit, which looked quite untidy to me. A man in a suit shouldn't have his tie set in the wrong place, his buttons loosened, and hair so rough. Nope. Not a nice catch. "Hello." I replied back, taking my face away. "You look beautiful.""Thank you." I did my best to avoid him, but my avoidance wasn't working. He literally sat beside me, calling the bar man towards us. "Aren't you taking your drink?" He pointed to the drink in front of me. I stared at the small dangerous alcohol in front of me, before putting it away. "I don't drink." "Wow. Then, do you drink red wine? Martini?" I quickly shook my head in response. I don't drink alcohol, he should get that by now. "You are beautiful,
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
He quickly took the gadget in his pocket, but he wasn't sure he got a clue how to use it. "I am not sure it's working. I have tried so many times, but it didn't work. I think you should go now before they catch you here." Lucian threw away the gadget, grabbed her hands. "We have to do something for us to get outta here. I can't let those men see you like this." He looked around the cage, "there must be some hole or something to unlock this thing." "There's no hole." "There must be a way, Rose. I need to get you out of here and fast." "But there's nothing. I have tried, but I saw nothing." She was panicking, her eyes stuck at the door if he could see Rosemary or her father coming.He looked around, but finally thought of something which might work. He quickly held her hands. "Rose? Rose? Look at me. We need to get of here and we will do it now." "How?" Her eyes made a shine of hope. "You are a demoness. You can control your mind to turn back into a human. You have to transform
When she saw that he was still unconscious, angrily, she slapped him hard across the face. "Common answer me, and be a man. I am sure if you wake up, you are gonna label me as crazy. But look, it's because of you I am going crazy." She ran her finger into her hair, frustrated. "All because of you, I think I am going to go tell the world, that you are the one meant for me." She suddenly became calm, running her fingers from his face to his neck. "Why did you choose to love her instead?" She thought about it, becoming silent for a while. "Did she perhaps had her charms on you, and now, you've became blind and deaf when others tell you that she is an evil person, a beast?! Well, this should be the reason I am gonna make sure she dies. I am going to kill her, make sure she regrets meeting me. I have always disliked her since the first day I met her. The two of you were all lovey-dovey, and I couldn't take it." She sighed softly. "So, I took pictures of the both of you, to implicate
