One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. Chapter Twenty Two: Third Shot?
Rosette's POV"Don't you like flowers?" Caleb asked, breaking down the silence for the third time as I enjoyed a piece of artwork.It's been an hour of us hanging around the gallery. I have been taking my sweet time to move from one art piece to the other and it's simply because I enjoyed it and I am completely fascinated by it.Another thing that kept me going, was how mesmerizing the artworks were, from one piece to the other I was greatly impressed.But I couldn't say the same for Caleb.There was no single trait that showed that he was actually interested in this, he kept sighing again and again while raking his eyes all over the pieces I admired.It would take a creative mind only, to appreciate an art and I agree with that."Why?" I asked back as I was now reminded of the lovely bouquet in my hands, if there was a way to squeeze the bouquet and put it in my bag, I would have done it, but it wasn't so I guess I'm stuck with it for now.By the time I return home with these flowers

DAMON’S POV A sigh escaped my lips as I turned on the television to watch a soccer match. I was home alone as Susan and Rose went out to do some shopping.For the past one week, their relationship has been steady, Susan was making an effort, and it was reflecting on Rose. On some days, Susan got back home before and she would always make dinner with Rose.I was happy that they were getting along and Susan? She was literally the happiest. And with Rose, it was neutral, there were a lot of things unsaid between us, but I swept everything under the carpet.Susan was happy and I was at peace with myself. Or not.With the match going on, I decided to grab a bowl of popcorn and coke to munch on while watching the match.Just as I was about to step into the kitchen, I heard the doorbell ring, causing me to halt in my steps. My brows happened in thought wondering who it might be as I found my way to the door. It was impossible for Rose and Susan to be back at this hour as it wasn't up to tw

Damon's POV"You say what?" I threw back at him trying not to act surprised but I was."I know this is very awkward Damon, I have come to you as a man, I need your help to get Rose's attention, I want her to be mine"Caleb added oblivious to the turmoil I was going through at the moment.My hands closed into a fist as I tried to keep my emotions in check while listening to Caleb's dilemma."You understand me right?" "What?""My feelings for Rose are genuine, please believe me" Caleb insisted."I don't understand why you are telling all this to me, Rose should be aware of the feelings you have for her and not me" I chipped in before he could say anything else."Yes, I know that as well, but Rose said she wasn't ready to get into any relationship for now, she said she is trying to heal from the hurt of a previous relationship," Caleb replied as my eyes widened instantly.Previous relationship?Hurt?What are all these new things I keep learning about Rose?But then she told me she has n

Rosette POVNormal.My life has been completely normal for the past few days.Life was starting to feel real once again, I was busy with school, and hardly saw Damon around.It felt like he was keeping his distance away from me and no matter how many times I tried to start a conversation with him, he just gave dead replies frustrating all my efforts."Are you done packing all the snacks you need?" My mother asked."Yes mom, and a bit of caffeine to keep us all through the night " I answered, closing the bag.My mom was worried because I will be spending the night at college, studying with Kara. It was a student thing and I was excited to try it out."You have to be extremely careful Rose, if anything goes wrong, promise me you will call immediately?" She asked again covering the distance between us as she hugged me.The past weeks have been a bit pleasant for us, ever since my birthday.Mom was doing everything she could, to be present in my life and I appreciated it just that I felt

Damon's POV"You know it's not possible for you to stay awake all throughout the night just for Rose right?" I asked Susan who has refused to sleep all because of Rose."Honestly, I'm trying not to be so worried, but I can't help it, this whole city is new to her and I just..""Hey" I said, cutting her short as I pulled her into my arms, "Rose will be just fine, you don't have to worry, okay?""Hmmm" Susan replied while nodding, "I guess I'm overthinking the whole thing ""Yes you are, this is college Susan, and not high school, you should be proud that Rose is taking everything about her life seriously, and being worried is not the best way to encourage her please" I added trying to comfort her."What will I do without you Damon? You are the absolute best!" Susan replied as she kissed me."Everything, I can see the efforts you are putting into Rose, and I want you to know that you are doing well, so why not rest your pretty mind? You have a lot of work tomorrow" I reminded her."Yes,

Rosette's POVI couldn't stop crying. Damon covered me with his coat, leading me to his car. It was still raining and now I started to feel cold, as my body trembled lightly.Once we settled into the car, Damon turned on the heater in the car, as silence settled between us, but the tears couldn't stop.Damon took my hands in his, rubbing my hands to provide warmth to my body.Different emotions swirled inside of me and it felt like my chest was going to explode.Guilt.Anger.Hurt.I was feeling all this at the same fucking time, and I hated it, all the feelings and emotions I tried to run away from for the past weeks was now coming back to me in full force.My anger towards Kara was unjustified. I had no right to be angry at her. By the way, what was the difference between her and myself?"Talk to me Rose, why are you crying? I can't stand seeing you hurting like this," Damon urged me.I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out, instead more sobs broke out."You are making me w

Damon's POV "Mom?" Rose gasped as I turned to see Susan, walking down the stairs.She had a frown on her face as she approached us, "Damon you..Rose why are you here?" Susan asked again.Rose threw a look at me, almost like she was scared, especially with the way Susan was looking at us.How do we explain this situation, it was past midnight, and we were both drenched."Say something, would you?" Susan added again, standing in front of Rose."Mom...I.. Damon" Rose stammered, fixing her eyes on the floor."Rose caught a cold as soon as it started raining and so she called me to come pick her up" I blurted out, the first thing that came to my head."Cold?""Yes, I think it was quite serious, and so she called me to inform me" I added while locking the door as I placed the keys on the table.I was doing everything just to act normal while in a real sense, my heart was literally pounding.I cannot have Susan suspect Rose and I. Not now."Yes mom" Rose added backing up my statement, I was

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'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

Rosette's POV"What did you just say?" 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
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. Revealing The Truth - 1
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
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. In Love With My Stepdaughter
DAMON’S POVI have never been addicted to drugs or the other kinds, yet I found myself suffering the fate of one in withdrawal. Withdrawal from the woman that made me feel whole. Even though I didn't realize it until now. I couldn't stop thinking about her. “I love you Damon” Her sweet voice resounded in my head, over and over again. It was a statement, a fact that we both couldn't deny but I did. I walked away from her love, over and over again. What sort of man would walk away from his marriage and settle for the daughter of the woman he married? I didn't want to be that kind of guy.Not when Susan needed me more than ever. I made a decision to suppress every ounce of emotion I had towards Rose, even though I knew I was hurting her, but I was hurting more. The need to see her, hold her and just feel her kept growing inside of me every single day and yet there was nothing I could do. She avoided me like a plague and then I found a way to convince myself that it was for the best

Rosette's POV "What do you mean by it's over?" Clara probed further."Don't worry about the details really, it's not of any significant importance what country are you travelling to?" I asked in response, changing the directive of the question."Oh..we are taking a quick stop in Italy, and I don't know, we will decide on something when we get there" Clara answered, pouting her lips."Really? I love that for you""Thank you,"We spent the next two hours, talking about the town and the people, while Clara filled me in on some crazy stuff that happened in her past relationships, my mind kept drifting back to Damon."So school starts in two days right?""Yes, excited for another semester" I replied."You don't sound excited," Clara pointed out.My lips broke into a small smile as I wiped my mouth with the napkin."Trust me, I'm.

Rosette's POV "Are you sure you are ready for this?" Damon asked, his hands roaming all over my body."Yes, I want this" I answered,. nodding my head, as he pushed me back slightly and then he stood in front of me.His eyes hooded with lust and desire, my heart skipped a beat as I swallowed hard, spreading my legs before him."Rosette..." He drawled out, raking his eyes all over me and then his gaze settled on one of the toys and then he picked the clamps."The lights" I muttered, without taking my eyes off him."Ashamed?" He threw back at me."No... just"""I want to see all of you in the light, are you going to back out?" He challenged, undoing the buttons of his shirt.On seeing his hard chest and perfect abs, my mouth watered as the desire to run my hands all over his chest, filled me and a slight whimper escaped my lips.As if on cue, Damon smiled as he proceeded to pull down his pants dragging it slowly on the intent of teasing me."Never took you for such a tease" I pointed ou
One Hundred Days with My Step-Father. Tears and Toys
Damon's POV A fucking invitation.I raised my glass of whiskey downing it in one single gulp. The fear of the end that I wasn't prepared for was close, so close and we both knew it would end.I mean a hundred days, it's a definite number of days.A loud sigh escaped my lips as I threw my head back, fixing my gaze on the ceiling.After this night, I wonder if I would be able to commit myself in my relationship with Susan.Last night.The last night is finally here and now I'm chickening out and it isn't supposed to be this way.I took a deep breath and reached out for the bottle when it struck me. I couldn't afford to get drunk, not on this night. I need to be in my full senses and in control.Always in control.I released my hold on the bottle as I stood up from the chair, my eyes staring at the staircase, and before I could think of anything else, I was already on the stairs - on my way to her.Immediately I pushed the door open, I heard soft whimpers, coming from under the blanke
