Verasco turned a sour face. He pulled out the revolver behind his back, checking that the bullets were still intact inside without looking. Verasco was certain that one close-range shot would take the poor woman's life. He smiled with a sardonic grin, noticing that the corner of the hospital was in sight.

"Wait for me here."

The pentacle-clad feet stepped out. Verasco had a thousand ways to do whatever he wanted. Smooth and agile, there was no telling how he knew Rose's ward.

His movements paused, watching Rose's prone body in there through the slightly open door. There was Travis waiting, he couldn't act that rashly. Verasco remembered Travis being the closest he had ever been. He had to be vigilant and hide for a while.

"I'll see you in a moment, Miss. Lion will be arriving at the hospital shortly in my place."

    "Shit!" Verasco's body was pushed away along with the revolver that fell to the ground. The hot lead, which was supposed to perforate the inside of Rose's head, missed by a long shot. Verasco turned away, jerking at the presence of someone beside him. Theo with a bandage on his head had just foiled his plan. Verasco didn't have time to let his anger build up. He crawled quickly to reach for the revolver just to repeat his evil deed. 'The one who lies down, must die'. Until one second had passed, he was still patenting the phrase. There was no mercy for her. Rose was the easiest target. The target most able to satisfy his desires and all that was suppressed. "Don't you dare do this to her." Theo growled sharply. Interrupting Verasco's actions just like he did the first time after entering Rose's ward.

    The end of Verasco's act. Theo approached Rose's position. The touch on the top of the woman's head was too gentle. He intertwined his fingers between Rose's knuckles. "Where is the doctor? Why hasn't Rose regained consciousness until now?" asked Theo in a worried tone. "I'll call him, sir." Long after Lion's depature, suddenly the link tightened. Theo caught Rose's eyes blinking several times. He smiled a small smile-waiting for Rose's consciousness to collect itself. "My child ...." Rose's weak murmur made Theo swallow harshly. "Calm yourself first." He tried not to discuss anything about the loss. The spark was still lingering—it could be very jarring to Rose's emotions. "Tell me, Theo. My pregnancy is fine, right?" "It's alright, don't think anything strange. Everything will be fine." Rose's wounded gaze momentarily traced each of Theo's f

    "Let go! I can walk on my own." Verasco shook both hands and smoothed out the folds of the crumpled cloth wrapped around his body. Theo had always been against Verasco, the very reason why he didn't want to even consider Theo's existence, let alone consciously call the man by name. It was far better for Verasco to liken Theo to Zever, until the day he and Zever could meet again. Verasco turned away. He left the hospital grounds with a sour look on his face. He got into the car with his mind on fire. Failed plans made... he would not give up that easily. If rushing was the decision that made it unsuccessful. Verasco would detail every step he would take. Not at this time. "I received news that Elijah and his subordinates are awake, sir." The information distracted Verasco. Of course he had another problem. The device Selena had found in the collar of his clothes that time had a close connection to some of the events unfo

    Beatrace nodded softly. However, she did not understand why Rose's fleeting return seemed forced. Beatrace didn't say anything... just waited until Theo stopped looking at Rose's face. "Rose just had a miscarriage. I beg you not to discuss her pregnancy. And you Lion, quickly do as I ask." Lion had already heard that from Travis. But Beatrace was quite flustered, more so the look on Theo's face when he revealed the reality he had to accept could not be taken for granted. Theo was clearly hiding disappointment in his heart. "I'll leave Rose for a moment, Beatrace. I have something to do." "With my pleasesure, sir." Beatrace would wait for Rose to wake up, or at least keep her company until Theo returned. She would not question where Theo was going. Her employer would take care of things, that much was obvious. *** "What did you bring all t

    "The lipstick you gave me is too red, Beatrace!" protested Travis unhappily. He wiped his lips in front of the small mirror several times just to remove any traces of color. "Master said you should be beautiful." Lion's voice chimed in loudly. He leaned against the wall of the door, satisfied with the way Travis had been transformed into a beautiful nurse. "Just shut up. Don't talk so much!" Travis pulled off one heel, intending to throw the object. Instead of that happening, Beatrace stepped in as a deterrent. "The master is waiting for you, go away." "Well, did you hear that, Trixia? No need to get angry, just knock on the door and go inside." "I'm not Trixia!" Travis handed Beatrace back the small mirror. Turning a cynical face, he pushed open the door frame of the main room of the mansion. Somewhat jolted Travis highlighted where Theo was. His steps were slow, struggling in heels and a uniform that hung halfway down his thighs. Travis smoothed his appearance as he no

    Theo's exhale was harsh. The man moved slowly away from the edge of the bed. Rose's eyes followed where Theo was going. Still in the same place... Theo sat with his back to Rose on the other side of the bed playing with his cell phone. Rose thought the man was too focused. "What do you want to eat tonight?" Never expect Theo to ask that, even though she was reluctant to express her wishes. "Rose." The form of Theo's call changed. Rose tightened the blanket, choosing to close her eyes as Theo's body turned away. She went back to ignoring Theo as before. Let it go... at least so Theo would understand the state of Rose's heart. Their relationship was very unhealthy if Rose had to admit it. "I'll be gone for a while." Theo's footsteps moved away. Rose waited for the door to the room to close. She hurriedly reached for her old cell pho

    Both silent. Both leaned against the headboard. Neither of them spoke to each other. No one started. Neither wanted to break the silence. Theo was busy with his laptop or cell phone. While Rose silently waited for news from Aiden. From late afternoon until midnight, he hadn't contacted her. Rose sighed. Occasionally glancing at the monitor that was lit in front of Theo. The web display showed images of the anatomy of the human-female body and a series of long sentences scrolled along with the cursor that kept moving. No idea what Theo's purpose was in studying that. Rose didn't try to ask directly, or maybe she had no intention of knowing anything about what Theo was doing and hiding. It was clear... their relationship was not healthy. It would only be a poison, a slow kill. Rose's face turned to where her cell phone lay. Hoping that Aiden would at least send a message and give her some news. But the screen of the flat thing was dark.

    "Mommy, wake up." "Mommy." "Mommy Rose." "Wake up, Mommy Rose." A small voice tickled beside her sleeping face, which had been sideways since the last time it had been submerged with wild and stirring thoughts. Rose stirred, blinking softly against the incessant pecking of lips on the surface of her skin. "Mommy Rose, Oracle is here." Before the name was uttered, Rose thought she was having a beautiful dream. She thought the whispers that resembled soothing voices were just a blast of curiosity that was never paid in cash. It turned out that the sweep of soft objects across almost the entirety of Rose's face was true and real. A glimpse of the stacked petals of a shrub hovered in front of Rose. The striking red beauty greeted the long-standing confusion. Rose gasped .... Oracle. Her mind never refused to chant the same name. The little one's shady smile quickly pulled Rose awake. "This is for mommy." Arms holding several roses were outstretched perfectly. Rose was alm

    Zever's sudden departure made quite an impression on Rose. At that moment she and Travis silently watched the backs of two people who were moving away. Rose didn't dare say anything as she herself realized Travis was leaving her behind—Travis looked down and Rose hoped he was okay, then followed with careful steps carrying her triplet into the mansion building. Two hours after the incident in the back garden, and after putting the children to bed, Rose soon caught up with Zever's whereabouts. Through the messages given to Lion, Rose certainly monitored whatever was happening outside. This included asking how Travis was doing. The man was behaving as before, but there was one problem. Zever in the living room with a ripple face so cold and gray eyes that stared half-empty arranged miniature joints on the table. Rose repeatedly took a breath just to steady herself sitting next to her husband. "Zever," Rose called out, wanting to make sure he would respond or not. Z

    "I'm done, Theo. Now it's your turn—" Rose thought, after stepping out of the bathroom and changing there. She would find Theo keeping all three of their babies in their proper positions, but that big body—in his sideways sleep—seemed to be deeper than the three babies who were snoozing peacefully. Exhausted. That's how Rose interpreted it, because these days Theo was often busy in the middle of the night—looking after their babies, while Rose was forced to rest. Rose smiled slightly as she rubbed the top of Theo's head. It was only for a moment that she turned to her triplets to transfer them to the trolley. Rose would take them for a walk in the back garden. Finished with the transfer she returned to Theo simply covering her husband's body with a thick blanket. "We're leaving first." Rose briefly kissed the corner of Theo's face. She pushed the trolley carefully towards the elevator. Rose already knew where the elevator was, it was quite hidden—and Theo had no

    "I got a lot of grandchildren." O'Douglas laughed like a pirate captain who had just discovered a historic treasure. Each of the middle-aged man's arms flanked two tiny babies, while the other was in the arms of Verasco, who continued to hold them, occasionally bringing them closer with a lighthearted joke. There was no telling what Rose would say as she watched her children being swarmed as soon as Verasco and O'Douglas walked into the ward. She had just finished breastfeeding, so the satiated babies would just sleep through the day, and not trouble their two grandfathers. "You never stopped looking at me," Rose said quietly. Most of the time Theo had a glare on his face, but right now the gray bead was shining something different. It was so loving and some of it Rose couldn't interpret correctly. How could Rose stand being shot at so closely. Theo had to, just once, look away from her. "Thank you, Sugar." A gentle touch on the skin of Rose's face made her

    Rose didn't expect Theo to take her to the island of Ortogia, the historical center of the Sicilian city of Sirakusa, to enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean sea. The scents by the sea were soothingly beautiful. Rose had not forgotten that Theo had not once let go of her body on the man's broad shoulders after walking along the old buildings on the islands of Ortogia. "Whose house is this?" asked Rose looking at a sturdy building that looked like it was meant for two people to live in. "Our house." There wasn't much Rose could say, except to bury her face deep in the hollow of Theo's neck. The masculine scent was still very much present, even after they had spent the whole day entertaining the guests, as if the perfume was very much at home on Theo's clay skin. "Want to go straight to bed or shower first, Sugar?" In front of a door Theo stopped and let Rose get on the floor. Between hesitation and the need for something fresh she finally looked up at Theo.

    "Ready?" Rose nodded as Theo spoke over the top of her head. She was indeed standing with her back to Theo, holding the handle of a long cookie-cutter knife, while Theo's large fingers grasped each of her knuckles warmly. The multi-tiered cake, or not much different from a fragile tower, was being split open. The blade slowly descended downward to symbolize sharpness. Rose smiled almost melting into laughter when Theo whispered something funny to her, funny but Rose wouldn't tell anyone. Let her keep it to herself and make it an important fun moment. After the first slice of cake Rose and Theo should have been feeding each other. Instead Theo scooped out the cream and immediately applied it to Rose's lower lip. Rose's face was a mess, but that was exactly what Theo wanted. He took Rose's lips like he was taking a delicious cake. The sweetness of the sugar and butter mixture seemed to make Theo insatiable. He licks Rose so intimately—there's no end to it—that Rose

    "It's enough. I'm full." Again Rose had to restrain herself as Theo's big fingers tried to push away the bowl of white porridge in her hand. "Just a little more, Theo. You have to finish your porridge." "Come on." Rose brought another spoonful of porridge closer, but that face refused. "Don't make me eat bad porridge, Sugar. It's tasteless." "That's why if you eat while looking at me, you'll get some flavor." "One more bite. I promise after this is over." "I don't believe it. You said that earlier, don't you remember?" Rose's wide grin completely fooled Theo. The man was exactly a child who had lost his appetite. It was very difficult to persuade him to open his mouth. "This time I'm serious about the last one. Ahk... open wide." Rose thought Theo would immediately accept her bribe. Instead, the man moved the elbow of Rose's hand, moving the bow of the spoon to Rose's own lips. "You should eat too." "I ate earlier," Ro

    One day after Theo regained consciousness, Rose finally decided to return to her home, the place where she once lived alone next to her small restaurant. At the moment there wasn't much for Rose to do other than prepare to meet Theo at the hospital. Rose immediately drove her father's borrowed car. On the back passenger seat she placed a medium-sized box with several holes in it that was wrapped very beautifully. While beside her sat a cute little dog with curly hair and white color like cotton. Yesterday Rose had just bought the poodle breed at the pet shop. Intrigued. That was all that drew Rose's desire to bring home the poodle named Cocomelo. "We've arrived." Rose prepared a special backpack to carry Cocomelo on her shoulders, so that when she first entered the infirmary Theo would not immediately meet her Cocomelo but Rose would show him. And in her hand, she carried the medium-sized box and walked into the hospital. Not just daring, but Rose had already ob

    Coming back from the bathroom, Rose thought she would be faced with the same situation. She had warned against it by waiting longer in the humid room until some of the noises from outside faded away. But everything Rose had expected was not true. The blood seepage on the floor when she opened the door was gone. Verasco's subordinates... even Verasco himself was nowhere to be seen, in his husband's infirmary. All that was left was Lion waiting very quietly, arms folded across his chest as he watched Theo silently. "Are you still here, Lion? Where are the others?" asked Rose as her steps brushed the side of the blanket. "Mr. Verasco asked me to wait here, Miss." Lion's attention was finally diverted. Rose suspected that he had just returned from the police station and helped Verasco and Elijah to execute George. As for George's betrayal, perhaps it was a wake-up call for Verasco to be more intolerant of hidden intentions and whatever else might happen. "Where is my

    "On the way home. Their story has a happy ending. Finished." Rose closed the 400 pages book and placed it on the nightstand. Reading sweet stories had become her routine in the past few days. Rose smiled slightly at her husband's face who was lying so quietly. This morning the breathing apparatus had just been removed indicating Theo's condition was getting better after the bloody spear incident. Luckily, they immediately brought Theo to get the right treatment. Theo had to undergo surgery three times. He had lost a lot of blood and needed transfusions as soon as possible. Rose remembered that some arguments happened between them regarding Theo who had very step blood, even Verasco was helpless about it. Just a Wench .... That's what Verasco said at that time with a trembling tone of voice. Like he was so regretful. Really regretful, until finally Travis suggested the few people who were still left in Italy to bring some bags of Theo's blood that were taken two
