"You have no control over other people's lives. And that distaste you glorify, has nothing to do with me. You know we hardly ever get along, so please don't make a big deal out of a small matter. I went with Lion, not another man. You're also an adult, so you should be able to tell the difference, Theo."
"If you're going to make me the target of your tantrums. I'd better go back to my room." Rose ended her string of sentences with a deep breath. Arguing over something that wouldn't do their relationship any good was pointless. She needed to isolate herself, wait for Theo's annoyance and weirdness to subside. "I'm not done yet." Rose's wrist was caught. Theo held her back. A piercing stare seemed to strip Rose naked and comb through her decision to leave. "What else is unfinished?" Such was Rose's statement, at her side Theo also loomed—ready to intimidate on other matters regarding their relationship. "Sorry, sir. TheRose stammered. Once she looked down ... things were no longer the same. The sound of Verasco's heavy fists and cries soared into the background. Theo jerked his father's face hard. "What has this old fart done to you?" He spoke with restrained anger. "Answer me, Rose!" And snapped with his neck muscles flexing everywhere. Once Rose's arm was gripped, there was no longer any silence that Rose could maintain. She tried to pull herself free from the wrath that had completely overtaken Theo to the point that not a shred of patience was lost. "You're hurting me, Theo." Rose complained. The poor decision regenerated the pain even more. "Answer me. What has this old fart done?" Theo's question never changed. The sharp ashen gaze contained a wrenching blade. "Nothing. Your father just slapped me." Theo almost complained. Rose's arms were pulled and shaken together. "I'm not stupid, Rose. Tell me or this will end very
"Theo!" The vague movements of the middle-aged man were almost non-existent. Just to highlight what Verasco looked like, Rose was incapable. She acted quickly, grabbed Theo's body and placed her face on her husband's massive back. "Stop it. Please stop." Rose whispered. Theo's breathing rumbled violently, the big shoulders moved. The sound of a pounding heartbeat reached Rose's ears. Theo's anger could turn many things upside down. Rose was grateful that her actions had gradually stopped Theo from the most fatal madness. She would not let Theo go, before distance separated her husband and the nearly unconscious Verasco. "Anthony will take care of your father. Now we go back inside, okay?" It wasn't as easy as Rose said. As long as he wasn't satisfied... Theo would never stop. His fingers reached for the cold object hiding under the black T-shirt he wore. The sound of the cock was ready to explode the face full of thick red liquid.
It was a chaotic mess that had been set in stone. Rose had to leave Verasco and leave the middle-aged man's pain to Anthony, in order to catch up with her husband's distant steps. Theo's massive body entered the main gate of the mansion, not once looking back. At least reconfirming the debris of destruction that was scattered there. Rose quickened her pace, counting every one of Theo's departures that could cause a high wall to rise between them. Where Theo was headed, Rose knew he had no intention of retreating to the master suite. Undeterred by that fact, Rose's common sense began to take a backseat. She didn't want to be left behind and end up with a wasted effort. What else would Theo do but shut himself away when the only place he could go was his own personal space. "Wait, Theo," Rose interrupted. Theo had already reached the doorknob and pushed the frame with the deep carved lines, while she was still far enough away to force her way
"Sorry, I don't mean to be presumptuous, but I can't debate this with you, Miss. You'd better go back to your room or else Mr. T's anger will never cease, for all I know here he is also blaming you." That's right. Rose knew full well Theo was clearly blaming her...as he had emphasized from the start—anyone, including Rose would accept the risk rather than the bruises she was trying to hide. "If I leave, what about Theo?" "Take it easy, Miss. It's not the first time he has done that." Rose looked away for a moment. Staring at how far she could reach Theo and the whole space that even the dividers were already in sight. "I'm afraid Theo will do something bad." No matter how hard Rose tried to ignore the conflict. Still the sound of wrath from inside cut her a little. When will Theo stop the chaos, Rose wondered anxiously. She smiled bitterly. Finally relenting, she chose not to look back at the splatter. "When Theo cal
Rose was not wrong to call Theo a big baby. Some days his attitude was uncontrollable. Other times everything in the man became something Rose couldn't have predicted correctly. One night the last time Theo spoke, the next Rose had to call for help from the people of the mansion to carry her big baby to their room. And right now, the anger was at an all-time high. Coincidentally, Rose, who was awake first, had to witness how Theo's breath roared harshly. There were some parts implied that the exhale was choked. Not knowing why Theo was in such distress, Rose felt the tightness. She shook her head faintly... half getting up to gently touch the surface of the face that seemed to look innocent when Theo's gray eyes were closed. Not wanting it to last too long, Rose moved quickly to grab her pillow. Quite carefully lifting the back of Theo's head, deliberately setting the soft object a level higher to stimulate the smooth supply of air in and out through
The door opened. Rose turned to find her husband entering with a towel wrapped around his hips. The remaining water dangling from the ends of his hair fell over Theo's broad chest, making the man look fresh in the onslaught of tantalizing heat. Theo approached... Rose thought he would accept whatever she would give him. Next thing she knew the annoying creature was searching for his own clothes—tossing the unwanted hanging fabric aside. Then pulled out a light blue shirt and darker colored tie to put on. "I already picked out this one, why take the other one?!" She really couldn't think. Rose noticed the extent to which Theo would stay with her. The appearance of the body with its back to Rose was almost perfect. All that was left was the tie that seemed to have forced Theo to focus too much. Rose chuckled, taking a thousand steps around... facing the downcast face. "I'll do it." She stood slightly on tiptoe to take her share of The
While her husband's big body is no longer visible. Rose had to swallow the bitter pill of a futile decision to break Theo's silence. She didn't know how else to try. Rose didn't understand, she was tired. Even in the presence of Beatrace and the others, Theo considered her something invisible. Overlooked. Even more so never glancing at her at all. "I've already fed myself as a fish. Are you sure you don't want to be the cat, Theo?" asked Rose desperately. Theo's position was still as before. Sleeping on his back with the blanket not coming off his curled up body. "Theo." Rose's fingers unconsciously landed on the surface of the arm bordered by thick fabric. With just a flick of the hand from the inside, Rose's spontaneity instantly pulled away. She clasped her own fingers. They were quite far apart in age. Theo should have been more mature to compensate for Rose's attitude, which was sometimes out of line. However, quantity does not fully det
Theo did not make the slightest movement. Exactly still looming in his original position, even though the gray bead was issuing a threat of danger. It was only natural for Rose to be wary. Her throat was dry as soon as Theo's hot lips thinned. "Oh!" Rose was jolted by the fingers that pulled both legs intact. She lay helplessly on her back. Moreover, Theo had positioned himself beside her, radiating a dark side that did not want to let Rose go. Theo's torment was both ugly and meaningful. Not a little bit of Rose's heart swelled as she realized Theo cared enough. At least the man wasn't willing to let Rose flaunt her body in front of another man. Although Rose had to admit that the way Theo brought her to the room was not right. Rose thought it was someone else who wanted to harm her. "Sleep!" One magic word against the rush of breath. Rose's face turned to the side. Theo had closed his eyes amidst an expression that was too cold.
Rose's breath roared as she waited for the situation to allow them to scramble to the surface. "I'm not asking you to touch my stuff." Theo's growl jerked Rose to lift her face slightly. Rose got a free space once Theo broke away. The two sat facing each other under the long table. "Shall I smoke you, Sugar?" Sugar .... The call was in stark contrast to Theo's hissing sarcastic tone. Rose placed the gun in a tight grip right in front of her husband. Avoiding the possibility that Theo might do something bad. "I didn't know the bullets were real," Rose whispered, not trying to defend herself. Like the dozens of bullets Theo had spewed from the firearm the man had used. Rose thought the gun lying on the utensil had similar ammunition. She chose to take the shot herself and ended up with a glare that still held her close. "One more time you touch my gun without permission, I'll cut your fingers off."
Bang! The sound of a gunshot rang out after Rose caught up with Theo in the training room. The first time she set foot she found a navy blue coat lying on its side, almost slumped over the foot of the sofa. Rose clucked as she tidied it up and positioned it in a better spot. Theo's broad shoulders never escaped her gaze. The remaining white shirt wrapped around his sexy body. Rose leaned back with her arms folded across her chest. Bang! Another shot hit its mark. Theo was too skilled for anything related to the current activity. Shooting was the most common habit, or actually Theo's life would never be free from such things. Like some of the events that had ended. Rose recalled Theo's statement to the line a while ago, 'killing for pay.' She both needed Theo and worried. Theo is important to help her get revenge. However, Rose was well aware that being a contract killer was not easy. At any time Theo could be harmed, including enemies—enemies who would n
"Oracle. He was afraid, didn't even want to see me." Silence to understand. Rose tried to piece together the tangled threads, which were tangled without end. The main objects started from the octopus doll to other toys, which Rose slowly understood. "You went to see Oracle, is that it?" asked Rose carefully keeping her tone. Theo's faint nod provoked the next sentence to hang on the edge of her throat. "So you bought all these toys for Oracle?" Rose confirmed once more. "Yes. And this is for the little cuties. But they all refused. Wouldn't accept my gifts." Octopus doll for Acampeliaz .... No wonder it's so special, Rose wondered. "Leave it to me. I will give these toys and dolls to Oracle and Campel." Rose had her hands up, perhaps Theo would immediately hand over all the small objects. However, what happened instead was that Theo arranged a set of robots from the 'marvel' series, including a s
"Let go, Dad, I'm going home." "The people here are sickening! I don't like it." The attachment continued for Mr. Alejandro. He had to accept the fate of the mess he himself had created. It's all affecting his daughter. The poor woman who must endure the pain of revenge and mutual destruction. Mr. Alejandro was looking for the wrong opponent, not understanding the things he was ignoring. He should have started the war when Bouldog died. But the desire to possess Theo overcame everything. He never thought that Theo would be the most difficult to conquer. One time he acted, multiple times he was attacked in silence. That ingenuity was what he had dreamed of. Unluckily, Mr. Alejandro was unlikely to be ambitious again. While his daughter had been destroyed. Mr. Alejandro waited for the right time, at least until Elsesa—Elsa could compensate for the woman's mental and physical state after being hit simultaneously. "Calm your
Rose had to admit that Theo was quite different by remaining silent when their position was intact. The last sentence from her was ignored, the man was busy sniffing Rose's body scent. Deeply nuzzling the surface of her flat stomach. "Take a shower." Rose played with the black hair warmly. She smiled as Theo looked up at her. "Take a bath with me?" The ash bead drowned Rose deep in the warm ocean. She pursed her lips as she pulled Theo's facial skin wide to the side. "I'm old enough to bathe by myself. Hurry up...." A faint shake of Rose's head brought her to fall on her back on the bed. Theo's thirsty face and the man's large fingers began to dig into a t-shirt depicting a black bear, just like Theo who was currently resting on top of her. "I told you to take a shower, Theo. Not—" Rose was silenced by the tongue thrusting into her mouth. The sound of a wet sniffle trails off—a greeting of desire igni
Slowly Rose's eyelids slipped from their valves. The same Theo stared, silhouetted against each other in the mirror—Rose was lost in the seduction of the locking gray bead. "I was thinking of Oracle. He knows I don't like wearing earrings. Deliberately gifted me earrings so I'd wear them," Rose replied, successfully drawing one of Theo's eyebrows up high. "He's here, isn't he? Why don't you go straight to him." Theo's baritone voice whispered softly. Comparable to the smile on Rose's lips that curved again-this time briefly and too faintly. "He's back home ...." "Home?" Rose's body was slightly freed as Theo moved his face away from the crook of her neck. "Yes. Axe came to pick him up earlier." One step away she found Theo moving backwards. "Strange. Oracle came home because he was afraid of me, right? Did I hurt him too much?"Theo's quiet tone disturbed Rose's mind. She scrutinized the few times Theo's expre
Rose didn't care how the swaying bed jerked like a violent swinging shock. She maximized each powerful gallop like a giant crashing into the earth. Theo's body was a soft target for her feet. The man moaned in a submerged voice. Yet, also with pleasure... sometimes asking Rose to move from one spot to another. "Up again, Sugar. Up to the shoulders." Rose chuckled, still doing everything Theo wanted. One foot stomped even harder on her husband's hot, sexy shoulders. "That's it," Rose said. One leap ended the earthquake on the surface of Theo's body. She flung herself down beside the sleeping man. "You said you will give me back my gift box!" "I need to know. Who gave you the gift?" "Oracle. Here, give it back quickly." Rose's arms extended to pull the red velvet box in Theo's grasp. Their positions were in sync, both using their arms as a fulcrum to lift their chests. "Let me open it." Theo's large fingers separa
"No, you don't. You had your fill of acting like a baby last night." Rose ruffled the remaining strands of hair that still dangled over half of Theo's face. She looked down, searching for the most comfortable spot to strike. "Ouh, Sugar ...." A contrived hiss. Rose knew that no matter how much she clenched her teeth, it wouldn't give Theo much leverage. "Let go. I have to meet, Axe." "You son of bitch. I hope you don't leave before I get back." The chances of escape were slim in the conditions Rose had to face. She wasn't going to waste it, deliberately hunting her nimble footsteps leaving Theo alone lost on the bed. Rose reached for the doorframe. The hinges clicked after she positioned herself facing the man who had been calling impatiently. "You're taking so long." The stifled protest from the owner of the deep, raspy voice uploaded a barely perceptible smile on Rose's lips. "Sorry, Axe. I h
"Open your eyes, Theo." The throbbing was still as loud as it had been the first time Theo had spoken. Rose's heart and head were fighting each other. Each fighting for the space that overlapped the boundaries she had created for herself. In between came a strange feeling, which Rose could not organize into a symphony. She was a jumbled mess of randomness. Should have reconsidered Xelle's sentence a moment ago, was it true that Rose was trying to stay with someone who made her get lost in her own feelings? .... No, she wasn't. Rose didn't want to be confused by all that reality. As far as possible, she separated the things that shouldn't be lodged in the deepest corner of her heart. Towards a kind of choice which is the most appropriate to win Rose's sanity. She didn't want to be conquered. "Wake up. Get up, Theo!" Rose squeezed the clay muscles in her husband's arm. Turning the curled up body to face the ceiling of the main room. "T
