Rose's Pov:I woke up in Jace's room after my attempt at suicide last night he didn't want to leave me alone, Richelle and Janelle weren't allowed to see me after visiting me at the medical room until the wedding. He had his arm wrapped around my waist, I close my eyes feeling sick knowing I'll be getting married to him today and I don't know how to feel about the situation, Actually I do, 'I'm fucking trapped and I don't know if Kaiser can help me this time' I thought "Roselle are you awake?" I heard him say beside me I'm quietly breathing softly making it look like I'm out to it he sighed, "I promise I swear to you that I'll try and change I'll try to be the man you fell in love, I'll try and make you happy to the end of my days" He whispered kissing my cheek When I felt him leave the room my eyes slowly opened as I sigh "Yeah right how long until you actually break me" I whispered under my breath pulling the quilt up further under my chin shutting my eyes just wanting this horri
Rose's Pov: I look at my dress on the hanger "I never saw myself doing this Sasha...getting married to Jace" I said while she places a hairpin in my hair "I know if your mum and dad could see you now they would be proud of you....you look beautiful" she said putting her hands on both my shoulder blades trying to make the best of the situation I was currently in. "I wish they were here to see me but Jace and Michael have other ideas they probably don't trust my parents" I replied She smiled a bit and turned me around "You'll be fine sweetheart now I think you'll be needing to get in that dress" she said with a gentle smile as I brought it towards myself analysing it "So this marriage how does this Mascarade ball work?" I ask confused She smiled "This is a bit different than your regular wedding" she replied as she continues "Everyone will wear masks and he won't come till later so you just have to go around talk, dance, enjoy yourself and then when he arrives will head to the fro
Rose's Pov: "Rose... get up time for school!" My mum called out from down the hallway I sighed in annoyance of all days it had to be this one dad's anniversary. Let's see If my acting improved "Mum I'm not feeling well I have a migraine" I winced in fake pain hopefully she falls for it. I hear her walking from down the hallway as she strides towards me she starts to probably think is she telling the truth or not. "Are you okay" she asks her brows furrowing in worry She comes into the room towards me feeling my head for a temperature than put's the thermometer in my mouth as she waits. For a minute I had hope that she would let me have a day off school because of the day.... but of course she can see behind my white lies she gives me a knowing smirk one that reflected my own on alot of occasions "Your lying, I know today isn't the best day to attend school but your education is important...It was to him too more than you know" She replied I sighed while she sits on the side of my
Rose's Pov: As we speed down the street my thoughts kept returning to Jace 'Why couldn't he just leave me alone, I'll admit one of the days I thought I could handle him being a mafia leader but he just got worse and worse his temper would rise to great heights and I couldn't deal with it I wanted an escape and he's given me that but why still contact my mother for, the thought puzzled me. "Rose watch out!" I heard Richelle yell out I gasped getting back on the right side of the road nearly getting hit by a truck, both girls looked at me in worry, and I shook my head as if waking out of a daze focusing on the road again. While we saw the school in our view Janelle calls out "Rose are you sure your okay that was a pretty close call hun" "I'm fine my thoughts have been drifting is all" I stated "Well drift your thoughts off the road Rose" Richelle said I sigh just being on my bike riding as fast as I can it reminded me of the days with Jace and our laughs but old memories die, I've
Rose's Pov: While I sit in the detention room my thoughts drift to this guy who was he, he had this look about him one I knew all too well the guy with a past a dangerous one and It didn't sit well with me something was off my gut was screaming to myself to listen to my instincts but am I just worried about today's events is it causing my feelings to be wary of this stranger than my thoughts go back into the past I remember Parker mentioning to me that someone left this school and was deciding to come back was this the guy he was talking about Ryder. "You can leave now Miss Bashay" My professor stated while I began walking out "Miss Bashay..." He called to me I pause turning back to my professor "Yes sir?" I replied "Please make more of an effort If you want to pass this semester I know your father would want you to" He stated waving me off to leave My brows furrowed in confusion but I shook it off and continued on my way to the parking lot, I feel like my ears have steam coming
Rose's Pov: As he pushed me up against the wall he started to look at me up and down biting his lip "You don't even know what I want to do to you now and it's really hard for me to resist" as he spoke to me in a low sexy like voice. "Well sorry I'm not an easy target Ryder" I spat out "And that is what makes you so appealing you haven't fawned over me, you look at me in disgust" He stated as If I was a mystery that needed to be unraveled. "And you find that so appealing" I questioned in confusion and sarcasm "I do, but you don't want me do you?" He asked "No I don't period, so why don't you go talk to the girl that's willing to spread her legs for you," I said with disgust thinking of Victoria. "What are you so afraid of?" He asks intrigued "I'm not afraid I'm wary of whom I interact with there's a difference" I replied "I can see you have demons and their holding you back aren't they?" He questioned I remain silent giving him his answer "So you do, I wonder what they are" He
Rose's pov: When I had come home after my interaction with Jace I was petrified I ran inside looking for my mother I hadn't slept in my mum's bed since I was eight years old but that night I couldn't sleep I bawled my eyes out telling her how terrified I was and the look he gave me that said we were far from over, this was only the beginning, I cried until I fell asleep nightmares plaguing my every dream. My alarm starts blaring on my phone and I can't even reach it I start groaning in annoyance as I tried to find it I then reach too far falling off the bed "Honey what was that sound" My mother said from downstairs. I groan in pain 'Great way to start the morning right?' "Just fell out of bed I'm on my way down" I pulled myself up stretching then walk towards the stairs slowly sighing I see my mum making bacon and eggs already placing a coffee in front of me. "Did you sleep okay?" She asked "You know the answer to that mum" I replied sadly "What did he want?" She questioned again
Rose's Pov: "Really you wanna know details?" Janelle nodded her head eagerly "Okay let's start off that he's a complete asshole also the spawn of the devil has the worst fucking mood swings," I said waiting for a reply "Not that I mean, how was the make-out?? Like was their tongue involved" she replied to my question I scrunched up my nose in complete disgust "No!" I yelled She opened her mouth wide and squealed " You so did what did he taste like? Did he open his mouth fully? Did you have sex with him!" As I covered my ears hearing her high pitch squeal. When she did mention that I realized the thought had crossed my mind to have sex with him how stupid am I? I stood there in the bathroom with Janelle as she kept throwing questions my way seeing Richelle standing there with her fingers on her temples rubbing them. "You really want the honest truth " I replied They both screamed in sync "Yes we want to know!!!!" I tried changing the subject of the matter "It actually scares me
