One Hundred Days with My Step-Father.   Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Six: Resolutions.
Rosette POV. "How..how did you get this video?" Caleb stuttered, my phone almost dropped from his hands but I quickly caught it. "Kara sent it to me, I don't really understand whatever agreement you guys have going on or not but then in summary Kara doesn't want us to work, she doesn't want this relationship to progress so..." "Wait a minute, Kara sent this to you?" Caleb asked again, his tone filled with disbelief."Yes, I was searching for you in school and then I came across her..." I summarized my encounter with Kara at college."That bloody bitch, and all along I thought Rowland was lying to me about her, I swear on my life I don't even know what is going on here, I don't..""Caleb, I... I'm not showing you this so you can justify yourself, No. I just want to prove to you the kind person Kara is truly and why you shouldn't listen to anything she says" I said, cutting him short."So are you saying you are fine with this?" Caleb asked."That's not what I'm saying,

Damon's POV I watched as she dug into her food, savouring the taste of every Bite like it was the last one."Slow down would you?" I requested, passing a glass of water to her.It's been a long time since I painted someone from a live image, for the past few months, all my art came from my imagination.My memories.Not until today, I could swear that my hands were shaky as I drew strokes on the canvas.I was going to paint her, awake, half naked and with that sultry look on her face but halfway through it, she dozed off and I had to change course.And I ended up painting my princess, asleep and cladded.The more I watched her and outlined the work, I knew in my heart that this wasn't a portrait I wanted to hide for the rest of my life.I needed to make it decent, so I could put it up anywhere, and admire it all day and long.So I could stare at it and get lost in her eyes.This was risky I know.And without a doubt, my heart was starting to grow fond of Rose, to the point where the s

Rosette's POV."So tell me, what is this book all about?" Damon demanded, in a light tone, stroking my hair as I laid on his thighs.One way or the other, he found a way to convince me into reading the novel he stole from my room for him.I was adamant at first but he talked me into doing it and here we are."A plus sized nanny and her boss" I replied, opening the front page. When Damon brought up the topic of my books I was scared as hell.I wondered if he came across my dark unholy novels, but fortunately the one he found was a light hearted funny novella."Hmmm, is that all to it? I see you added bookmarks to some pages, are they..."I turned red instantly, "You asked me to tell you about the book right? Let me, why are you interrupting me?" I stated cutting him short."Okay princess, go ahead."My lips spread into a smile as I told him all about the book, "So, the female lead is Emily, she just got out of an abusive marriage with nothing and then she crosses paths with this kid in

Rosette POV "I....""Mom, you are always going to be late, you don't have to apologize for it all the time, like I said, I'm used to it and I have decided to utilize the time I get with you rather than fighting you, we will make progress" I said, cutting her short."Ohh..I didn't realize how mature you have become" She managed to say."That doesn't mean..." I started."I know, I know what you are going to say and I promise to do better okay? Damon is making toast, wanna join?" She offered."No, em.. I have to run, early papers and I have some work to do before exams start" I replied, turning down her offer as I found my way to the shower.I left the house with one goal in mind. To talk things out with Rowland and push everything behind me.Which in other words meant a new start for Caleb and I as well.******I got to college quite to early, students were yet to arrive and my best bet was studying at the library. On my way to the library, I saw Rowland and immediately he sighted me

Rosette's POV "Forget about that and promise not to do anything that will affect Kara's stay in college and I can avoid her till I graduate, moreover, she will get tired and everything will be over" I replied instead, smiling at my books."So, will you come to another party if I invite you?" Rowland requested."That depends, will you leave me halfway and be a dick again?" I threw back at him."On my life, I swear I won't do that again, and I also talked things out with Caleb, your relationship will not be in jeopardy because of me," he added. "Hmmm" I drawled out the word relationship, replaying in my mind over and over again.With everything sorted out with Rowland, we quizzed each other on the course and when it was time we found ourselves in the exam hall.After the exams, I waited outside for Rowland so we could go home together, he offered to pick and drop me home for a full week as his penance.I told him it wasn't necessary but he insisted, assuring me that Caleb would tag al

Rosette POVI paced nervously across the room, my mind racing with fear and different thoughts.Was my mom suspecting Damon already? Could that be what she meant by that?I had no idea what to do and so I decided to call Damon but his number was unavailable.At the same time, there was a gentle knock on my door, causing my breath to hitch in my throat."Rose baby, can I come in?" My mom called out from outside.Before I could answer, the door creaked open as my mom stepped in, "What has gotten into you sweetheart?" She asked, marching towards me.I stood still, my back facing her with my arms crossed as I wiped the corner of my eyes."You have been so off and it makes me so worried, do you need my help? You need to let me help you in...""Someone spoke about him today" I muttered, referring to the excuse of a father that I had.I didn't know what else to say, there was no way I could tell her that I was being affected with her date planning.It made no sense.And there was no need to

Rosette's POV"Sweetie, I do not mean that and you know it, you just caught me by surprise that's all" Mom uttered, running her hand through her hair.I watched her carefully as her expression switched between worry and carefree, a fake smile spreading on her lips."Doesn't seem like it" I countered, leaning on the counter table as my eyes hovered around the table."Rose...""I get it, you are an adult, your life and I don't get to interfere, I was just asking and you don't have to tell me either, so..I will take this to the dining area" I said, reaching out for the first tray.Mom settled for three full course meals, with the appetizer, main meal and dessert, I think so.A fruit crunch for the appetizer, steamed buns and lasagna for the main meal and lastly, my all time favorite dessert - Vanilla cupcakes with a dash of lemon."Baby, you don't have to worry about me, I promise I'm alright, just routine check up, and my doctor was confirming with me" She answered."Sure?""Yes dear, I

Damon's POV "What was the need to do all of this?" I asked as we settled down, my eyes scanning the entire place.It was beautiful, roses scattered all over the floor and the table, the aroma of the dishes on the table filling my nostrils as my eyes rested on the bottle of champagne in the middle of the table."Well I think our relationship has been lacking, especially with the fact that I'm always absent and so I decided to do this for us, also a medium to thank you for always looking after my daughter" Susan stated, with a wide smile on her face.I was dumbfounded, I least expected any of this and I had no idea how to react, my mind wasn't even present as it kept drifting back to Rose.How did she feel about all of this happening?Susan must have told her about it and to worsen it she was right upstairs and we were having our date right here."I appreciate you doing all of this Susan,.but why not a restaurant or a hotel you know..." I asked, grabbing the bottle of champagne.I need

One Hundred Days with My Step-Father.   Leaving You.
Rosette's POV Beep.Beep.The smell of the antiseptic filled my senses as my eyes stirred open slowly.White ceilings, with the classic regular lightning.I knew without a doubt that I had landed in the hospital.But how?Before I could process anything else, I heard a voice."Like I said before, her stats are stable and by the end of today you should be able to take her home""Oh... thank you so much doc, I really do appreciate your help" Another voice chipped in.A familiar voice.One, my whole body could tell and respond to.Damon.And then it hit me, the last thing I could remember before I passed out, was seeing my mom, with shock written all over her face staring at me."Mom" I stuttered, tears forming at the rim of my eyes.Immediately, Damon rushed to my side, taking my hands in his, "Rose...Rose, can you hear me?" He asked softly."Yes," I muttered weakly."How do you feel? Are you in pain? Do you want something?" He asked again."No..no." I managed to say, as I struggled to

Rosette's POV "How dare you!" Hughes growled, glaring at Damon."Please..." I started but I didn't get to complete that statement as Damon stepped forward, covering me completely.."How dare I? You kidnapped her, kept her locked in this ridiculous place all for a contract? A contract where you didn't even indicate the slightest interest for" Damon countered.Hughes paused for a second, as he focused his attention on the woman in his arms."Jake, take her out of here" he ordered, signaling one of his men that stood at the door."No.. please I want to stay here with you" Louisa begged, holding his shirt tightly."No, you cannot stay with me Louisa, this is...work and I have to handle it alone" he dragged, staring at us.Us as in Damon and I."Work? Since when did your work require you to kidnap people? You had her locked up for days and he threatened me with a gun" Louisa continued, shaking her head.She was quite shaken. "Louisa listen to me" Hughes said, grabbing her shoulders so sh

Rosette POV I waited.Counting every second with bated breath, with my eyes fixed on the door, while on the other hand, Hughes just remained relaxed, going through some papers on his desk.He had this full assurance and confidence that Damon was on his way and my heart just wouldn't cooperate with me and slow down.I was anxious, and overall I was scared.The last three days have been hell for me but I couldn't imagine what it must have felt like for Damon. Especially because of the way our last conversation ended.And my mom? Rowland? Everyone must be losing their mind searching for me.My trail of thoughts were interrupted as Hughes' phone rang and immediately I turned to look at him.He picked up the phone with a sly smile on his face before raising his head to meet my angry face.."Your prince charming is here" He said, raising the phone to his ears. "Let him into the hall" he ordered over the phone.I stood up from the couch instantly, marching towards the door."You have to sl

Rosette POV."," I thought I was coming out to see my meal, but instead, it was the regular two men and... nothing.No food.No tray and the familiar sight of jug I have gotten used to."The boss wants to meet you" One of the men spoke, reading the confusion on my face I presume."The boss?" I repeated."Come with us" the second one added, throwing the door open as I shot me a warning look.Which clearly means 'Don't try anything funny'So I wiped my mouth carefully, adjusted my dress and followed them out."Wow" was the first word I uttered the minute I stepped into the hallway.For the kind of room they locked me in, I thought I was in a shabby, less modest remote area, probably surrounded with warehouses and lots of that.But that was far from it.I was in a freaking mansion.Literally a mansion, with huge walls and High ceilings, everything about this place screamed wealth and top notch luxury, including the interior design.We walked for a while, until we got to a door, and then
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father.   Burning Betrayal
Susan's POV.I never saw this day coming.The day where everything I have ever known, believed in, loved and trusted was taken away from me.For the past five months, life has been hard, adjusting to the new married life and trying to let go of the things I loved like my work to do better in my home was just a big puzzle that I couldn't fix.I tried but at some point, I gave up.I really did.And now sitting down with a new truth facing me, a bitter truth that I couldn't process, I couldn't help but reflect on everything.Way back.My choices and my decisions.And the worst part, realizing that I was right all along, but I was so stuck in my delusion and denial and then it got this far.Some part of me questioned myself when I said 'yes' to Damon.Did I make the right decision?Was it going to affect my daughter?You know, the typical nerves and endless questions that comes with being married but above all, the fear haunted me the most.The fear that one day, I would wake up and reali

Damon's POV Hughes.Hughes did this."Fuck!" I cursed underneath my breath, running my hand through my hair.How did I miss out on such an important detail?The PI asked me over and over again, if I had any rivals but I said no all the time.Why? I never expected Hughes to do something as sinister as this, all because of a contract.A multi billion dollar contract though.But still..Nathan warned me about Hughes but I waved it off like it didn't matter just for this to happen.That fucking bastard.I heard of his ruthlessness and all his scheming methods he used at securing deals but this time around, the situation was different.My pitch was perfect and the investors bought it. It was after the first proposal that Nathan informed me of the other clients involved and unfortunately, Mr Hughes was one of them.The message was sound and clear and I knew what he wanted.The contract.Immediately I stood up from the couch, grabbing my keys and coat on the couch."Where are you going?"

One Hundred Days with My Step-Father.   The Mail Box
Damon's POV "Everything that is happening right now is your fault!" Susan shouted, throwing a vase at me.But the police officer quickly caught it, taking it away from her.It's been three days of searching for Rosette, but every lead we had came to a dead end.With the influence of Ronan, I hired private investigators to join forces with the officers to find her but it was futile.After Rowland and I found her phone on the street, I drove to the police station to report the case and since I had tangible evidence, the report was filed.At first, Susan was still reeling in the anger of her new discovery and so she remained I bothered regarding the fact that Rose was nowhere to be found.But on the second day, it began to dawn on her and it became hectic on me.Constant yelling and throwing things at me.Sometimes I just let her vent on me until she passes out and when she is up again, she continues.But today, it was different.Before the Investigators showed up, she threatened me, sa
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father.   A Victim Of Circumstances
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

Damon's POV Silence.For the next one minute I couldn't speak.My grip on the steering wheel tightened as I swallowed hard.For a second it felt like I couldn't breathe.Rowland knows!She told him.And then it registered, even though she told him, she didn't say my name, and that is the reason he's so comfortable sitting in my car and not hating me."Shit! 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
