"Sean! Someone's looking for you." Charlotte banged on the hospital door abruptly, then closed it again. Her breath caught near Sean who was lying on the blanket. Making the man who tried to close his eyes, opened his eyes wide again.
"Who?" asked Sean quietly, still feeling pain all over his body. "Don't know. That person's appearance is not random and looks very classy." "Where is he now?" "He was at the reception desk. I could hear him asking the nurse where your room was." Sean's forehead repeatedly wrinkled in surprise. He looked up at the hospital skyline. He wondered who the person who was looking for him might be. Sean's mind had not yet finished traveling. The sound of the door opening indirectly attracted the attention of two people in the hospital room. Sean and Charlotte looked in the sameThe brown eyes blinked, trying to get used to the light shining on her face. Strange. No idea where she was... Rose was literally woken up dizzy, having been put to sleep by something piercing her flesh. She turned around, finding a handsome man beside her with his eyes closed. That adonis face looked pure, innocent as sin while sleeping. Rose's arm unconsciously stretched out, her fingers touched Theo's forehead for starters-followed by a touch of the bridge of the nose to the lower lip whose center was slightly parted. As the activity went on for a long time, Rose's body suddenly jerked when a hand grabbed her wrist. "Are you satisfied?" The distinctive waking voice sounded so sexy. Rose's face flushed with embarrassment as Theo's gray eyes opened, looking at her with a mischievous glance. Rose glared. "Let go of my hand," she said as she tried to break free from Theo
"And, one more thing. Can you shave off those disgusting hairs of yours? They bother me so much." Rose felt Theo's small movement that separated their bodies. Still with a touch on the shoulder, the man highlighted her face, as if in a challenging and dismissive manner... visible from the angle of his highly curved lips. "There seems to be something different. I thought you didn't make a big deal about chest hair yesterday. Even when I was naked in front of you, you didn't protest. Why are you suddenly asking me to shave it off?" Theo pushed a few strands of Rose's blonde hair back. His fingers again grasped the rest of the mane on the charming woman's shoulders with one fist. "Give me a clearer reason. I'll try to consider whether to comply with your wishes or not," he said as he looked down. Rose's lips that seemed to be open and closed—hesitant to say something, really drew Theo's curiosity deeper. One arm reached o
"How could you hide such an important matter from the master, Miss? Before bringing you here, you were completely sedated. And that is very risky for the fetus you are carrying. Moreover, your pregnancy is still in the first trimester." Travis paused briefly, chuckling in disbelief. Let's hope Theo doesn't get very angry when he hears something like that. Travis took a deep breath and let it out roughly. "I'm sorry, miss. But when the master returns, I will inform him that you are pregnant." Rose looked away quickly. There was nothing more meaningful than Travis's long-winded statement, except for the last sentence the man uttered. Travis couldn't behave like that. He really couldn't. Rose confidently shook her head, trying to calm her suddenly chaotic feelings. "I'm begging you, Doctor. Don't tell this to your master. Not now, I'm not ready." Rose carefully changed her position to sitting. She look
"Lion," Rose called faintly. Repeatedly saying the same name. Lion happened to pass by Theo's doorstep, when Rose had no choice but to stay where she was - unable to leave after realizing how big the building was. Rose had time to close the door she was still holding. However, the sound of Lion's footsteps that paused after being stopped gave a small chance. Rose sank half of her body behind the door. She waved her hand - asking Lion to come closer. Occasionally Rose turned toward the bed. Thankfully, Theo was still sleeping there. Rose would seek revenge. "What's wrong, Miss?" asked Lion with a surprised frown. "Shush. Speak softly," Rose said as she placed her index finger in front of her lips. "Come here, I need your help." Motioning for him to bow Lion followed. He brought his face closer, listening intently to the narrative behind Rose's whisper. Rose's request felt strange. Lion pulled away slightly, not understanding what Rose wanted this time. "Why are you askin
It's dark. Theo could not see a speck of light. His vision was covered by a thin black cloth. He turned away, trying to make sense of the situation by catching the slightest sound of Rose's movement. He felt Rose climb back onto the bed. "In the dark you look like a wonder woman." Theo spoke when he felt a touch on his chest. "What are you doing, Sugar?" The sticky sensation inevitably created curiosity. Theo wanted to know what Rose was currently doing. "What did you say just now. I look like a wonder woman. Now I want to get rid of these pesky hairs." There was nothing left of the waxing mixture, which Rose now placed in a bowl on the nightstand. Just waiting for the molten wax to freeze, Rose could pull it off from the opposite direction where Theo's chest hairs were growing. Sequencing by largest count. Rose almost patted Theo's ribs after realizing how the waxing mixture from her was hardening.
"Yes. But you only asked me to promise not to be rude. The rest of the time I'm free to do whatever I want." "You're such an asshole!" Rose struggled violently. However, she was also surprised by the tube that suddenly widened. "I warned you, Sugar. Don't move. It's a telescopic tube. The more you do, the more it will open your crotch for me." Theo crawled up, not actually crushing the body beneath him. There was an arm propped up on the bed. "I'm sure you must have forgotten that I'm not completely divorced. Yesterday your mind was split, that's why you didn't discuss anything about my status when we met again." Theo's statement really struck a chord in Rose's head. How could she forget such an important matter. There was absolutely no thought in her mind about the fact towards Theo. She didn't know what the man would do now. Rose wasn't going to let Theo touch her, or at least do anything. "What do y
Rose's steps came to a halt. Her body froze when she first entered the large room filled with tall shelves and functionality. All the clothes and other types of equipment were perfectly organized. At each point there was not a single vacancy. Every shelf was neatly filled, making it easy to search in the midst of delays. There, in the middle of the room, Rose found Theo busy wearing a dongker colored tie. It was a stark contrast to the sky-blue shirt wrapped around his large frame. The man's appearance was almost perfect. Rose, meanwhile, was still trying to find where the women's clothes were. Her spotlight glowed far away. However, Rose could not find any equipment. The walk in closet she entered only provided Theo's necessities. "Where did you put all my clothes?" asked Rose a little annoyed. She shot Theo a glare. Coming closer while hugging the oversized bathrobe on her body. "You
"Wake up, Sugar. We should go now." Theo sniffed that intoxicating neckline. Back home, into the room, he found Rose asleep with her back to his current position—on his knees, waiting for her to open her eyes. "Sugar." Theo's subtle attacks were relentless. However, his efforts were not enough to pull Rose back from unconsciousness. With a slight growl Theo stretched Rose's body. The slight movement of the closed eyelids made him frown in surprise. "You're pretending to be asleep, aren't you?" Theo moved away feeling half-angry. His lips thinned as Rose just spluttered, and positioned herself leaning against the headboard. "I just woke up. You're just bothering me," Rose grumbled followed by a glare that lit up the adonis face in front of her. "We should go now. Use your time efficiently. I only have two hours to take you shopping." At that Rose blinked rapidly. What could
From Aiden, the man's phrases today were the worst draining for Rose. She sighed unfocused, as soon as possible—like yesterday she wanted to close her small restaurant a little earlier than the operating hours. Indeed, some of the equipment had already been cleaned by Rose. Next, the corner of Rose's lips curled into a big smile after the last customer waltzed away and left some coin tips. Rose quickly approached the doorway to reposition the 'open' sign in the opposite direction. Quite relieved, she turned towards the table with the remaining dirty dishes. First stashing the tips received into her pants pocket, then carefully arranging the plates on the tray. What a pity what Rose didn't understand... she never expected the door of her restaurant to be suddenly kicked in, until from outside a man threw another man's slumped body right under Rose's feet. Her breath caught as Lion winced in pain, while the still towering perpetrator looked like a lake of thirst.
"You're back again, sir?" Lion was overcome with astonishment at the sudden arrival. The man facing him simply handed over the bag that had once been forcibly taken. "Yes. I don't need this laptop anymore. My work is done. " "What work are you referring to that is related to Mr. T's laptop, sir?" Lion was completely clueless. Everything that had happened lately was enough to keep him silent. Apart from Lion having to take care of George during his detention and outside of Verasco's knowledge. Lion wanted to know what activities provoked curiosity, but it seemed that the owner of heterochromia eyes was reluctant to reveal what was being done secretly. Actually, the decision to investigate something that wasn't 'mandatory,' Xelle should not have made. He interpreted everything Rose told him as an imbalance. About the murder Theo had committed against Rose's parents. According to Theo's records that Xelle had traced, the bullet should have hit the victim'
Two months after the heart—pounding incident all of Rose's lives were exactly the same. She lived day by day as if in an open cage. Rose was both free and trapped. There were electromagnetic waves in the house she had just moved into during that time. Waves that did not record visually. However, sensory movements would send signals to the last man with Rose that day to know every detail of the strange activities Rose was doing. Like if Rose wanted to do something reckless—self-harm or something else. Two months earlier. When they were no longer in the middle of the forest. Rose's silence and fear eventually acted as anger that evaporated completely. There had indeed been a major argument. All Rose's intentions took place almost slicing a kitchen knife into her own wrist. The woman received a series of scathing sentences to really get slapped. Realization. And Xelle then chose to be hands-off in the sense that the man assured full surveillance via the electromagnetic waves in
"Axe, stop your car." The car that had been provided since they arrived in Canada. What Rose had never imagined was that the car she was riding in would drive off into the forest. While the man in the driver's seat really had his heart set on getting there. A cold, sharp, unaccepting gaze met the heterochromia's bead. "Stop your car, Axe!" Rose turned to confirm exactly where they were going to dock. It was too far, and she was again jolted by the sudden stop of the car. "Why here?" asked Rose softly. Her attention was fully focused on a single denizen of the jungle. Firm, large, clawed features mirrored the creature that walked beneath the elder tree. Rose's mind shuddered at the thought of the beast becoming aware of their presence. "Get out!" Instantly Rose glared at Xelle in disbelief. "What do you mean?" "That wild tiger will make you die quickly. Now you can catch up with your dear husband." "Get out!" Rose wanted to inter
One counts first. The next two. Rose held her breath after obtaining the firearm. She froze in place as the instincts of a dominant man turned sharply to digest what had happened in the blink of an eye. Rose realized that piercing expression was not good for her. "Don't come any closer!" threatened Rose, bringing the muzzle of the gun to her temple. "Fuck! What are you doing!" Rose took a step back whenever Xelle tried to get closer. Rose's common sense really wasn't there. Not with her. "Stop your ridiculous behavior, Rose." Rose shook her head violently. She would rather end her life than wander aimlessly, shrouded in emptiness, shadowed by the guilt of having contributed to the loss of her husband's life. Rose couldn't hold on to anything. All was lost in the shuffle. "I'm warning you once again, Rose. Stop your ridiculous behavior!" No! Rose argued with a wet face. Trembling her arm steadily began to squeeze the trigger. A
Rose's fingers fiddled with her black wedding ring with a half-empty stare, she had just put it back on her ring finger. Rose didn't care, really didn't care about the fact that the ring wouldn't come off. In the new room and the smell of the room that was still so new she sank. Not to wait for the man who had said goodbye a moment ago, or because Rose wanted to. The first time she entered her new home. Rose was pestered with various troublesome things, which is why, she unpacked several red velvet boxes containing individual pieces of jewelry. Two necklaces. The first one she received that day. Before the big explosion—when she thought she had lost Theo. Then he'd come back with something surprising. Like a pendant of undulating curves, a form of life that truly gave Theo a chance at life. That's what Rose had hoped would happen to her. But instead, for how long Theo has not returned. Buried and identified by a gravestone. Rose exhaled rough air from her lips. The sec
"Where is Mommy going? Why won't we see each other again?" Knowing that such a question was not what Rose was expecting. "Home." She spoke almost choked up. One of the Oracle's eyebrows rose high at that. "But daddy says we can still see each other often." "Yeah, he's right," Rose corrected. Stupidly she had let it slip a little at first. "But then Oracle must always obey Daddy and Mommy Bridgette. We'll meet at another time. I don't know when." Rose finished the rest of the slump by towering over Xelle who was staring at her in understanding. A moment .... Not brave enough Rose glanced at the little girl beside the man who also offered Rose the distance to step out. She paused that decision, then affected to touch the top of Acampeliaz's head. "Can I have a little of your smile?" asked Rose. The twinkle in Acampeliaz's beady eyes rumbled with doubt. Rose noticed that Acampeliaz's little fingers were tightening. "Just a little. I'm not a
When she woke up, Rose was not confronted with a dark background with car headlights on. She was lying in a very cold place. The white and sterile decorations on the walls were a welcome change of pace. Rose gasped. Forcing herself awake, she found a pair of heterochromia beads staring at her. Much to her surprise, Xelle was there standing against the wall, releasing the folds of his arms from the clasp of his chest as one step made the decision to approach. "All your clothes have been prepared by Bridgette. It's been transferred to the jet. We're going to Canada today." Today .... This meant Rose had missed a night of leaving Theo at the funeral. She should still be there. Keeping Theo company, making a deal with him—either Theo comes back, or she goes along. But it hadn't all worked out. Rose hasn't gotten her answer yet. And her choice still hangs between a great dilemma. If she has to reach out to death, she should choose the right place. Toronto, Cana
"You want me to die or you to wake up, Theo?" The last option began to jolt Rose. Death was a shadow that offered her happiness. Whether that was true or not. If the second part won out over her stupidity. At least Rose wouldn't regret trying to find a way out of life's predicament. "Answer me, Theo. I'm not playing around, and I'm not threatening. Everything I had is gone, there's no reason for me to survive anymore." "Wake up. Get up!" Rose pounded on the slightly damp ground. She put all her energy into waiting for Theo to respond. However, she was only doing a useless job of buying up unhealthy ideas to replace the truth in her mind. At least right now Rose needed the reassurance that Theo would return, then she would undo the self-harm."Wake up, Theo." "Get up or I'll destroy your tomb!" Rose half turned on her knees slamming her arms together repeatedly. Rose was getting out of control as she tried to remove a pile of hardened soil
