Rosette POV.

"Oh my goodness, did you pack this much? All for the concert?" I asked Evelyn, throwing myself on the couch.

The next morning, I woke up to an empty bed and a text message from Damon, asking me to spend the rest of the day with Evelyn, until evening when the concert will start.

It was easy to locate Evelyn's room because the moment I walked out of the room after brushing my teeth, there was a staff member waiting right outside the door for me.

"Have you been waiting here all night?" The words slipped out of my mouth.

"Not at all, Mr Damon told me you will be awake at this exact time" the staff member answered.

"Ohhhh"

"I will lead the way"

I followed the staff all the way to Diego's suite, and if I thought the room Damon booked was large, this one was outwardly magnificent.

And the state of the room was a complete wonder.

Evelyn sat in front of the vanity two, with two stylists over her, one touching her face and the other doing her hair.

I felt her cheeks hurting on her behalf, but the excitement was all over her, she kept clapping, giggling like a child and I could see just how true her love was for him.And my darling so called best friend was going to ruin this? No way. I almost squealed when Diego sent kisses righ

    Rosette POV I waited an hour for Damon to regain consciousness, but he wasn't coming around, and so I decided to shower and get rid of the dress I used for the concert.I hurried in the shower so I could be there beside Damon whenever he came around. Diego was thoughtful enough to leave some pajamas for me and so I changed into that and then returned to the bedside.I took a deep breath in, exhaling loudly as I picked up the thermometer to check his temperature and fortunately the fever was dropping and his face was regaining color as well.A sense of relief washed over me, as I leaned backwards on the chair I was sitting on beside the bed.I tried so hard to fight off the wave of sleep that threatened to consume and along the line, I lost, succumbing to it.*****Damon's POV.When I opened my eyes, I was greeted with complete darkness, not just that, there was a weight on me that I couldn't see clearly.I tried to adjust but I could barely move a limp. I don't know how it happened.

If it was up to me, I wouldn't want us to return home.Probably drive around the city till dusk, but Damon needed rest and I also had college to attend today.A small yawn escaped my lips as Damon drove into the compound, and a wave of sadness washed over me, the minute the car stopped."You are stressed because of me, I'm sorry, you should sleep a bit before time for your classes." Damon started."Yes I will, but I think I'm hungry""I think you are always hungry, Rose, come on," Damon added, and we exited the car together.My eyes scanned the entire house and a wave of uneasiness filled me, something wasn't right but I couldn't place a finger on it, and it was disturbing.Damon pulled me closer to him, throwing his hands around my shoulders, as he flashed a smile at me, almost like he could tell something was wrong with me but didn't want to probe fu

Even though a lot of crazy things were happening here and there, I still believed that if I studied hard, I would be able to pull it off.God was on my side today, because there was no sight of Kara and her girls around and even Caleb wasn't here and I was at peace.The third class was almost over and the professor gave us a last minute mock test with our system before leaving the class.I gathered my stuff to leave the classroom when a figure came into view."I thought you would be on Oasis rooftop, basking in sun, but here you are" I

You?"More coughs again and a weak yes."What is wrong with you, why did you turn off the lights?" I asked, walking into the kitchen as I turned on the lights.Damon was seated at the counter with his head bowed and a glass of warm water in front of him, a sketch pad, a pencil and his phone.Instantly I rushed to him, pressing my hand on his neck.

"A meeting? You couldn't just skip a day to look after your sick husband?" I threw at her, closing the door. "You don't understand it Rose, Damon was completely fine and I asked him if it was okay for me to leave, he was in good shape, how am I supposed to know that this would happen?" "No sick person would want you hovering around them like a fly, of course he knows how important your work is to you, were you expecting him to say no?" I shot at her. "Rosette!" She barked. "No matter how much you raise your voice mother you will have to hear it, what are you thinking? What if I didn't return from college early? What if he died? Okay if your work was so important why didn't you call me? At least..." "Rose that's enough.." a weak voice that belonged to Damon interrupted. "It's not

    Rosette POV.When I opened my eyes again, darkness greeted me, I had to close my eyes and open it again to adjust to my surroundings.Thousands of questions ran through my mind as I opened my mouth to speak.Or rather test my ability to speak, because it felt like I have been numb for months.The memories of the last events flooded my head as I wrapped my stomach instantly.I'm pregnant.Damon wasn't welcoming about the news and so I left the house.I went over to meet Rowland and on my way back home, waiting for a ride, I ended up....here.In a dark room.Before I could think of anything else, the door burst open followed by light and three tall men, their faces covered with masks but they didn't look threatening.Due to the light that came from outside I could finally see where I was in.A room.A decent room with a small bed, a table and chair on the other side and a waste bin at the door side."Inform the boss, she is awake" I heard one of them say."What?" I gasped, shocking myse

I shouldn't have said that but if she isn't home then there is no other place she would have gone to" he continued....."Damon...are you listening to me?" Rowland called out, pulling me out of my thoughts."Yeah..em...what are you talking about Rowland?" I asked, clearing my throat as I adjusted uncomfortably on the seat.My heart beating fast against my chest, like it was going to jump out right and all my secrets would be exposed."You shouldn't be hearing this from me, but Rose is pregnant" He said, shaking his head, looking out of the window."And how did you know about this?" I threw back at him."She came over like I said a

She shot at me."No...Susan...this is what you want and...""Is it really what I want?""Susan, our marriage failed, this has nothing

    Damon's POV."For the first time ever Damon, I'm begging you to tell me that I'm over reacting and this isn't what it looks like" Susan continued, her voice sounded so detached and cold.I raised my head, looking upstairs with only one question in my mind, did Rose do this?Was this her best way of exposing the truth??"You don't have to worry, your lover, or the other woman, which happens to be my daughter, isn't home yet." Susan said, reading my expressions."Susan..." I started, dropping my bag on the floor, walking closer to her."Stop right there Damon!" She barked and I froze."Let me explain..." I tried again."What do you want to say? Okay let's start with the secret art room that was in this house, why didn't you tell me about it??" She questioned."It wasn't important," I answered."It wasn't important? But apparently that was your den! The same place you fucked my daughter in and painted her right??" She threw back at me."Please don't talk about Rose like that, look... I'

    Damon's POV"Fuckkk"I screamed, throwing the glass against the wall. Everything was in shambles now.Every single thing!At that moment, I wished, hoped and prayed for a way. A way to probably undo everything and not hurt Rose the way I just did.She was pregnant.A baby for me.And all I could do was look her in the eyes and tell her to abort it. Why??Because I was too scared.Too stubborn to give into my feelings for her.And now, I have lost her for good.Not just her but my baby."Are you willing to let go of her?" My consciousness pricked me badly.Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to.And that was pathetic of me.I wanted her.I Wanted her. And above all, I love her.But I still can't have her, so I stayed away, but staying away wouldn't fix this mess.And I have to do everything I can to protect her and my baby.And that includes telling Susan the truth.Susan should hear it from me first, and I know she would be hurt, but Rose is her daughter so there has to be a way

    Rosette's POV Rowland burst into a sadistic laughter as he walked back into the kitchen to dispose of the broken pieces of glass."Is that some sort of a joke? Are you trying to pull a prank on me, Rose?" He asked again, walking back as he sat down on the couch facing me, with a smile on his face.A joke.Exactly what my life has turned out to be, I'm now a freaking joke."It's not a joke Rowland, I'm pregnant and no it's not for Caleb and you cannot tell him about this" I answered, with a serious tone."What are you ever saying to me right now Rose? You are pregnant..?" He repeated, the smile faltering from his face.Probably the seriousness on my face made him realise that this wasn't a prank."I just found out a few hours ago, I had no idea what to do and...""You were cheating on Caleb?" Rowland spat out again, rising from the couch."I...""Was it a one night thing? If you aren't pregnant for Caleb, who is responsible for it then??" Rowland asked again, there was a shift in his

    Rosette's POV.I made it out of the building, with my head bowed and my face teary. Despite how many times Damon's secretary called me, I ignored her running out of the building.I knew without a doubt that there would be questions in everyone's mind, especially those present at the reception area, but it wasn't my cross to carry.Damon would deal with it, after all he was good at taking care of things. Luckily for me, there was a cab right outside the building and I slid in immediately, closing the door with a loud bang which must have scared the driver."Please drive" the words escaped my lips faintly.The cab driver hesitated for a second, looking at me through the rearview mirror with a worried look on his face...like he pitied me or something."Charris Avenue, house twenty" I added, giving him an address."Miss...you...""Can you please fucking drive?" I said, raising my head as I wiped the tears off my mess.I was a complete mess.But the last thing I needed was pity from a str

Damon threw back at me, his eyes wide open as his gaze fell down to my stomach.It was now or never."I have been feeling a bit funny for the past few days and so I decided to go get drugs to subside the fever and I ended up taking a pregnancy test and it's positive" I answered, skipping the whole part on how the sales clerk and I had to drag over the meds and all.And at the same time, I opened my bag, brought out the stick and placed it on the table.So he could see it.And the next thing Damon broke into a sadistic laughter as he reached out for the stick, shaking his head as he brought it closer."I don't understand how any of this is funny to you" I stated, my brows furrowing."It's not? Cause I never imagined in my life that you would stoop so low, what are you trying to achieve with this Rosette?" He countered, with a dismissive tone."What?" I gasped, holding the edge of the table tightly as I tried to process his vile words."This... You

    Rosette’s POVCrying wouldn't change the fact that I was pregnant right? But it could give Damon and I a chance to be together.I know I sound delusional, and it was unexpected but the deed has been done and there is nothing else that I can do about it.So I picked myself up and headed to Damon's office.He needed to know this truth. And even if he wanted to deny his feelings for me, he would never be able to deny the child I'm carrying for him.I didn't mean to get pregnant, but I guess that's what happens when you have a dozen rounds of unprotected sex and I forgot to keep up with my pills.I was nervous. Tensed. And scared. So scared.I never saw this coming, I never wanted it but my pregnancy was about to change everything.Damon and I could hide and play around right under my mother's nose, but I wouldn't be able to hide pregnancy forever. I gripped the hem of my dress tightly, the tiny bit of happiness growing inside of me disappeared instantly.If this revelation should come
