One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. Chapter Twenty Nine: Kisses, Susan.
Rosette's POV.The next day, I came downstairs to meet Damon setting the table, he was making breakfast and so I offered to help.There was no sign of my mother around so I figured she already left for work.Last night, I felt bad for what happened, especially with the way I ran upstairs leaving her and Damon. I'm sure she had questions and Damon had to face it alone.I was responsible for all this, I kept putting Damon in the most awkward situations and still expected him not to react.I don't know how long I have been standing at the foot of the stairs until Damon called my attention."Rose, why are you standing there?" He asked, pulling me out of my thoughts as my eyes locked with his.He looked calm this morning, as small bangs of his hair fell to the sides of his face as his lips curled into a smile."Good morning Damon," I greeted walking towards the table, the aroma of freshly baked banana bread hit my nostrils and my stomach grumbled in response."Hungry?" Damon asked ushering

Rosette POVSelf awareness is a thing.Yes it is.Because my entire body was reacting to way Damon was staring at me, I did not even have to look at him, to confirm that, his eyes followed my every movement and it made me proud in a way?Was that even right?I wanted Damon to stay away from me but the fact that he couldn't keep his eyes away from me, turned me on.I needed some brushes, paints and sheets for my course, I also wanted to start practicing my art once again, after my visit to the Gallery, I got the inspiration that I lost long time ago.I was torn between two paint brushes, and I couldn't even ask Damon for his suggestion, it was obvious that he wasn't the arts kind of person.I have never perceived Damon as a sentimental person, not until his voice broke my trail of thoughts."Size six will be perfect if you want to get the thin lines" Shock.My eyes widened instantly as I turned to face him, "What did you say?""I can see that you are deliberating on this two brushes r

Rosette's POVIn less than five minutes, Damon got out of the shop, holding the bags of everything I picked as he marched towards the car.How I managed to get into the car was still unknown to me, but for a minute, I was able to put myself in check. Or not.I bursted into tears as soon as I got into the car and now that the cries were over, I was sure I looked like a mess.Damon placed everything at the trunk before he opened the driver side and immediately I looked away.Two minutes past and there was complete silence in the car.The tension so thick that even a knife wouldn't be able to cut through.Yes."What do you want from me Rose?" Damon asked breaking the silence.Huge question.Because I wanted everything, Body and Soul.I didn't reply instead I continued wiping the tears that rolled down my eyes when a black kerchief appeared in my vision, and then I turned to look at Damon."You look like a mess" he pointed out and I wanted the car to open up and probably swallow me."You.

Damon's POVI don't know if I have done the right thing or not, but this was what I wanted and I just had to give into it.When Rose confessed her feelings for me, in the name of LOVE, I just knew I had to do something, something to fix it.It was a fact that we were both undeniably attracted to each other, I mean I couldn't think straight whenever Rose was present around me.She affected me that much. But I wasn't in love with her. I loved her mother Susan. Susan is the love of my life and I intend to keep it that way forever, but I couldn't push Rose aside. She seems to have her life and heart hooked on me and that was the reason wasn't going to accept Caleb's offer, or possibly any other offer she will get in the nearest future, which was so wrong.The one hundred day offer was to prove to her that whatever she thinks it's love between us, wasn't. It was Lust. And it's a temporary feeling.One that will definitely go away before the end of our Hundred days pact.All through the dr

I flew out of my bed on hearing my Mother's scream.It's been four hours since I returned from the supermarket with Damon and since then I have been floating on clouds not until mother's scream broke my reverie.Fortunately, I was able to cover up for Damon, and he said was right, My Mom didn't suspect a thing."Come down darling, we have a visitor" My mom added again and I quickly threw on a dress while packing my hair up in a ponytail and I was out of the room.There was no way I would be leaving my room in a bad shape, not after everything that has happened.On getting downstairs, My Mom and Damon stood by the door with another strange man."Mom?" "Yes baby, come here, meet Damon's friend, he just arrived" My mother announced as she moved aside, revealing a tall lanky man."Hi, you must be Rose," the man said walking towards me with a bright smile on his face.He was tall, not as tall as Damon...wait why am I comparing every jack to Damon?"My name is Di

Rosette's POV"So now that I'm done complimenting your mother on how amazing she cooks, can I just say how gorgeous you look? , I'm mesmerized by your beauty, I mean, I never knew Damon was hoarding you in this city " Diego started taking my hands into his."Oh please.." I tried to say but then Diego cut me short again."Tell me Rose, wait, I can call you Rose right?" "Yeah..""So tell me, what do you think of this city? Do you know I was totally against it when Damon said y'all are moving to Los Angeles of all places?" Diego added."Oh wow," the words slipped out of my mouth as I threw a look at Damon."But Damon here was quite persistent, he was on and on about how he wanted things to be easier for Susan, a great start and all, so do you like it?" Diego continued drawing my attention back to him."Em...it's a nice city I guess" I managed to say while dragging my eyes away from Damon.Why was he angry now?

You are exaggerating the whole issue," I retorted, " I was starting to get angry now.She wasn't even giving Diego nor I a chance to speak or at least explain."Exaggeration? What do you know Rose? You are just a child, Damon, listen to me, I saw Diego and Rose standing really close to each other and I'm not comfortable with that" My Mother blurted out despite all my protest.I lowered my eyes, fixing my gaze on the floor as I felt Damon's glare on me.Silence."Didn't you hear me Damon? I said...""Susan, it's..." Damon paused as he walked up to my mom, and then he pulled her to the chair."Man, it's seriously nothing of that sort, we both got carried away and.." Diego started again."That's enough Diego please, Susan is... You know what, why don't you leave, I will call you, once I settle everything" Damon said, cu

Rosette POV"Are you busy?" I asked softly, closing the door behind me. "No, you have my attention" my mom answered, throwing her legs out of the bed.After grabbing my snacks from downstairs, instead of heading to my room I decided to drop by and check on my mom.Luckily for me, I didn't have to knock because the door was slightly open and when I peeped in, she caught me and asked me to come in."I just wanted to apologize for everything" I started, fixing my eyes on the floor."Will you ever get tired of hating me?" She threw back at me instead.Immediately my eyes widened, "I don't hate you" the words slipped out of my mouth."You don't?""Mom...""Will I ever be that to you and truly be it? Every second our relationship takes a step forward, something comes up and we take three steps backwards, it's exhausting" she added again.This time around, she was so right. I was teary, but didn't want to show it so I wiped the corner of my eyes stylishly."I don't want us to keep going ba
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. The Right Thing
Rosette POV After an hour passed of thorough questioning and penning down statements, the officers promised to remain in touch with Damon, once the order was processed and for the meantime we were asked to restrict our movements.Damon walked the officers out of the house, while my mom picked up herself and headed upstairs, without saying a word to me. She didn't even spare me a glance and now I was starting to feel bad for everything I said earlier, even though a part of me knew that I couldn't blame her entirely for it, it just felt easier putting it all on her.I took a deep breath in, turning around when I met Damon, he was angry at me, as he crossed his arms over his chest."You need to stop Rose," he started."I....""You are hurting but you aren't the only one suffering, your mom isn't happy about this either and so you cannot continue with this attitude," he added again."I can't help but feel that way..." I countered."And I'm not saying your feelings aren't valid, all I'm

Rosette POV "I'm not making this an issue, it's not my fault that you are always on defense mode, you need to cut me some slack Rose, you went out this morning, without informing either of us and then you return with Damon, with takeouts, can't I ask questions?" Mom countered, her hands resting on her hips."Of course you can mom, but then when you... just forget it, can we go inside, there is something I need to discuss with you" I added instead.Arguing with Susan was pointless.We could never agree on something together.Our views were just so different and poles apart."Alright then, go in, I will join you" she said, looking away."Mom, can you please not do that right now? Okay I'm sorry, but this is important," I insisted."How important?""Ronan"At the mention of his name, my mom's hand dropped as she turned around, like she was in search of him."Ronan? Did you see him around here? Did he talk to you?""What are you talking about mom?" I asked, covering the distance between

Rosette POV "What are you doing?" The words slipped out of my mouth as I gripped the car seat tightly."Distracting you""Distracting me? From what exactly?" I asked, shivers running down my spine as Damon's hands moved up my thighs. And my legs? They fell open on their own.I was squirming hard on the car seat but then trying hard not to show it."You will get yourself distracted Damon, we are on the road for Christ sake!" I protested, hiding the smile that threatened to break out of my lips."Let me worry about that, right now my only focus is you, so spread those legs wider for me my sweet Rose, I want to feel you..." He said without taking his eyes off the road but for some reason I felt like he was watching me."Damon..." I whimpered as he pushed my panties aside, his thumb coming in contact with my clit."Hmmmm" he hummed in approval, stroking me, and then he plunged two fingers inside of me.My eyes flew open instantly, a loud moan escaped my lips, from the corner of my eyes I
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. Celebratory Text
Damon's POVOnce the meeting was over, I rushed back to the last office where Rose was waiting for me, and to my greatest surprise, she was asleep.The last few weeks have been hell for me. Not just me but us. A lot of mental and emotional stress coupled with that emptiness creeping in my heart.My eyes raked all over her body, taking her sleeping figure in as I memorized the image of her, storing it in the deepest part of my heart, so I can never forget.Just because, a part of me knows that she would always remain there.Last night, when we danced, I could see her eyes pleading with me not to end things, but what would be of me if I didn't?A cheat?A mother fucking backstabbing liar?Everything we have done so far was... forbidden and wrong.But then putting an end to it, felt so right.Too right.And so I made up my mind that no matter what happens, once the 100 day mark comes, I will go very far away from her. Before we destroy ourselves.I wanted to make these last moments in o

His secretary followed behind me.Instead of heading home, I changed my destination and came over to Damon's office.I remembered he told me that he was going to be here today for an important meeting and unfortunately that meeting was going on at the moment.My mouth fell open as my eyes danced around the men, or rather investors sitting around the table in their fancy daper suits."It's okay Jane, I will handle it" Damon said rising from his chair as he adjusted his suit without taking his eyes off me."I'm sorry I had no idea...I thought she was just trying to..." Before I could complete my statement, Damon grabbed my arm, placing a finger on his lips as I went silent."Excuse me gentlemen, I will be right back" He said, pulling me out of the office.Once we were out, I found the courage to speak again, "Damon please, I didn't mean to ruin your

Rosette's POV.Ronan.It has to be him.My hands trembled as I took a step back in fear, my eyes darting around in search of him, but there was no one around other than regular students just like Rowland and I."Rose..Rose are you okay?" Rowland asked placing his hand on my shoulder."Yes" I managed to utter, but I was far from okay, I was suddenly so self aware as I continued looking around."So, what's the answer?" Rowland asked again."Can we leave here?" I countered, putting my phone back into the bag."Emm...is that like a yes?""No...that's like a we should leave now, we need to hurry" I answered grabbing his hands as I started walking fast."Rose..calm down" Rowland called after me but I didn't stop, I kept pulling him and just as we got to the gate he suddenly stopped."Come on Rowland, this is important please..." I said, turning to face him."You know I would go anywhere with you right? But I have a class and I cannot miss it" Rowland stated, taking me by surprise."You have

He asked with a small smile on his face, so that the professor doesn't suspect anything."We have nothing to talk about please" I replied, placing my hand over his as I stylishly removed his hand."You don't have to do this Rose, you know...""Is everything okay Rose? Rowland you can come in, I have been waited for you" the professor interrupted saving me unknowingly."Everything is fine, I will take your leave now" I answered before he could speak up and then I walked out of the office.I sighed, feeling relieved as I walked out of the building, I know avoiding an issue is never th

Rosette's POV After our little romantic dance in the sitting room, Damon and I found ourselves in the kitchen.While I refilled my water bottle, Damon munched on some snacks, there were lots of papers over the counter top, his glasses and his laptop."Can I ask you something?" "Sure""Is everything okay with you? I mean with work and all, you have been way too busy and engaged with it recently so..."Damon sighed, taking a deep breath as he dropped the bowl of chips in his hands, "Actually work is crazy but there's nothing you should be worried about" "Well, it's just that I have never seen you work so hard and you look worried mostly" I pointed out.Damon forced a smile as he walked closer to me, "I will handle everything, and that's enough about me, what are your plans for tomorrow?" He asked, tracing my cheeks with his thumb."Well...I was going to drop by at school, start my registration for the next semester and after that, mom and I are going to the dentist" I answered."Hmm
