One of Theo's eyebrows rose high. The desire to see Rose grew by leaps and bounds. He hadn't thought about how to crawl there. For all Theo knew, Rose cared far more about Sean. But a sense of distaste began to creep up and besiege his emotional control.

"Tell me where?" He gave him a sharp look, which held Travis frozen in place.

"The third room after this one, sir."

He had to, even though he had to. Travis hesitantly followed Theo from behind. His footsteps halted as he realized Theo was just standing there in front of the door to the hospital room they were in.

Something had just angered his master—evident from the fist tightening, then unclenching as Theo moved away. Leaving the residual scent of the man's body there.

"What's wrong, sir?"

"Going home."

The single word represented the regret that had burst forth. Theo passed Travis's body accompanied by a piece of cold, smoldering atmosphere.

    The whisper seduced Rose into shutting her eyes. She was not fooled at all. The thrill that had once been there was gone... nothing could make her feel lulled. Rose's fingers brushed against one of the clasped arms. "I'm sorry, Sean...but I'm not." "Let go!" She was already trying to separate such a link. And the more Rose tried, the tighter Sean held her. "I'm your sister-in-law, Sean. You shouldn't be doing this. Let go of me." "No, you're not. You're mine." The voice maintained a tight grip that provoked disgust. "Let go. Please respect Theo. He kept his promise to me to bring you home. Even risked his life to save you." "He promised you, that means you do care. I know you still love me. You can choose to come back to me or stay with T." Witson's descendants, it seemed... without exception, were so stubborn and full of ambition. Rose couldn't help but step on Sean's toes—at that moment relief filled her chest cavity. She

    Arriving at the mansion, something Rose had never imagined greeted her before her eyes. The divorce papers, complete with the signatures of both parties, lay on the bed along with three roses. Tucked into the stem was a piece of white paper, as well as a small bag of thick blood, which Rose could well understand the function and purpose of Theo handing over the blood. Rose's heart pounded as she reached for the rose, which was no longer red. That is, for this time Theo had chosen kissing pink as a gift. [Those roses are my last.] That's what it said. They were the last roses Rose would ever receive. Next there would be no more shrubbery as Theo had said-365 days that hadn't even passed halfway. That's okay. Rose didn't mind Theo's decision on that one. But divorce .... She had already decided not to pursue her lawsuit all the way to court. Instead, the misunderstanding became a thorn and put their marria

    "What's the connection between you and that slut?" Sean turned away while being cautious. Not having finished controlling his emotions since Rose's departure, there was one face that made his anger boil over. Verasco and the middle-aged man's haughty attitude, Sean wanted to throw out the window. "Watch what you say. Rose has a name." Sean hissed sarcastically. Verasco's insult provoked the pebbles gathering in Sean's soul. "I don't care what her name is. A whore is still a whore." "Shut your fucking mouth, old fart!" Verasco's snicker was followed by a step closer. "Wow... you seem to be very sensitive when it comes to her." "She's my ex-lover, why?" It came as quite a surprise to Verasco that both his sons were enamored with the same woman. His attention and curiosity about Rose was growing. Verasco was interested in getting a woman who dared to reject him. Verasco's lo

    And Rose was too enthusiastic to walk down the steps. A large field spread out before Rose. The private jet was parked specifically not far enough away, though Rose was met by a car that would take her to the two separate buildings Rose had been in. Each leg of Rose's journey was filled with a thud. Who knew how Theo would react when they met there. Rose tried not to be influenced by the thoughts that indoctrinated Theo's bad side and sometimes unpredictable attitude. She wanted to handle Theo's anger in a simple way. "Just stop here." Rose's attention was drawn towards the pavilion. Lion and some men seemed to be busy chatting. Rose thought Theo was one of them. But the handsome man seemed to be drowning in the deep sea. "The master is probably resting, Miss." A heavy voice startled Rose from the side. Rose didn't even realize when she got out of the car. And that man, the one who had introduced himself, was already carryi

    "Does anyone know if Theo's wife has had dinner yet?" Rose came up to Lion and his friends as they were gathered in the living room. She did not miss Theo who was too focused alone on the single sofa, playing with the laptop on his lap. Not a new sight for Rose—Theo and his dating robot were inseparable. "Master's wife? Meaning... you, Miss?" Lion's brow furrowed. His demeanor was much warmer after Rose invited them all to have dinner together. "You saw me eat earlier. I asked about Theo's wife. That beautiful, furry wife." Rose pointed with her chin at Esmeralda's position curled up under the sofa leg. Almost. She almost heard a snicker, which was then stifled from the four men before her. "I was seriously asking," Rose continued, also unable to contain herself. The spotlight that was trained on her, however, made Rose neutralize her tone. "So does anyone know?" "I don't think so, Miss." Rose's face scrunched u

    Bastard! Rose's lips thinned in annoyance. "I'm more than sure it's not you who's going to mess up the colors you've arranged." Then dismissed the outstretched arm. Theo suddenly shuffled next to her body that had just taken a sitting position to address the reddened marks on both knees. One of Theo's hands held his stomach, the other half covered his face and trembling shoulders held back the laughter that was about to burst out even stronger. It was a sight Rose had never seen in her life. Either she should let it go on for a while or stop Theo from euphorizing over her misery. "Sucks!" Theo's body shifted vigorously. "Don't laugh at me!" A solid, muscular arm was targeted by the claws between Rose's thumb and forefinger. "Oh my. Wait a minute." Theo rubbed his face repeatedly. He had to fight hard against the intriguing memory of Rose whose position was too messed up to imagine. "Shit, I can't!" he swore, unable to contain himse

    Rose had never enjoyed the sea breeze so much. The smile on her face was faint at the thought of the night's events. This might be a new beginning, a glimmer of hope rolling into view. Who knows how far the storms that have been there will go. Slowly Rose would finish what was left undone. A little calmer, yes, although she never thought that Binari would lead her to Theo. And how Theo was a hitman, that was the biggest question. But Rose knew such puzzles would not end easily. Especially Theo... Rose had already decided not to find out much about her husband's former life. It was too tiring to have to remember the closed responses and the ones that never lived up to expectations. If Rose had to think back. Even without Sean, she and Theo would have met. It was a pity that coincidences were part of unexpected expectations. Fate seemed to have been specially designed. However, there was one addition where Rose felt no need to sink into the dangerous abyss.

    Rose rubbed her face furiously. Either she'd been struggling for too long without success, or she'd never noticed that her every move never escaped the scrutinizing eyes of the ashes, so that just one tug from Theo had left Rose's body soaking under the rushing water. "Theo, I'm already in the shower!" protested Rose, occasionally tossing her long hair back. She looked up. The handsome face grew hotter with a few strands of hair dangling and with drops of water splashing like dew. "You've been going back and forth incoherently, are you teasing me on purpose or what?" "Teasing from where! I'm looking for my bracelet that I left behind. Move aside, I'm not done yet." It's not that easy. Rose's back was turned, hitting Theo's solid muscles as she tried to escape from the torrent of wetness. "Is this what you're looking for?" The bracelet chain dangled in front of Rose's face. She gasped, stood on her tiptoes a little and t

    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
