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
Rosette POV."Roseeeeeee!" 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? Even if anyone else couldn't notice it, I did.His mood took a different turn
Rosette's POV"I don't know, Mom is...""You don't know? If I hadn't come here, do you know what would have happened then?" My mother chipped in."Mom, can you just stop? 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
Damon's POV."Make sure to get the work done, I want the reports sent to my email in the next one hour " I barked at my secretary and then ended the call before she could even protest it.It was almost midnight and yet the tension from the dinner time still hovered around the house.After Rose stormed out on us; Susan and I. It took me about an hour to calm her down.But she was agitated and nothing I said was getting into her. In between our conversations, she got a work call and that was the end of it.Now it was time to handle my rage.I have been sitting at the kitchen counter, drowning myself with a good bottle of whiskey.All the events that happened earlier continued to replay in my head and I couldn't imagine just how close Diego was to Rose that got her furious so bad.Was Rose lying about Diego coming close to her? If not, How close then? Did they kiss before Susan walked in on them? Or rather if Susan hadn't walked in on them, Will Rose have given in to Diego's temptations?
Rosette's POV. "I..." "Stay right there Rose, you shouldn't be here, what are you doing here?" Damon threw at me as a scowl rested on his face. After I left my mom in Damon's hands, I went back to my room to get over the whole situation, but all I did was cry. The only thing that occupied my mind was the way Damon looked at me, the first time my mother dropped the news on him. He stared at me, with disappointment, in his eyes and it broke my heart. "Why shouldn't I be here Damon?" "Do not give a question in place of an answer, go back inside" Damon ordered in response. "Hear me out at least Damon please" I pleaded as tears rolled down my eyes. "There is nothing left for you to say, you have done enough, as a matter of fact you have also said enough, what more do you want to say Rose?" Damon questioned taking a step back as he ran his hand through his hair. "Damon...I need you to believe me, I promise I didn't come close to Diego, he just got carried away while flirting with
