Knight Empire
One hour beforeInside Antonio's office"But Antonio, I don't think this is a good idea. You are very well aware that you are trying to play with fire. I may not know Xavier better than you but till now what I have noticed about him is that tricking Xavier is like putting your life on the line. He is already enraged with Rosaline and her betrayal. And now you're risking your neck by being all lovey-dovey with his goddamn Rose that too in front of him. Antonio, Xavier won't even hesitate to lit you up on fire."Emily babbled in fear while staring at Antonio and Jennifer but they were unmoved by her fear.
"Emily darling, we know you are scared of Xavier to core but we need to make that beast realize that he still cares for his beauty. We need to make him realize her importance and worth in his stone-cold heart. We need to make him realize that he still cares and love her. And on the other ha
At Knight Empire 12:10 p.m. "Where's Xavier?" Sebastian mumbled while roaming his eyes around searching the younger. Suddenly his eyes caught Antonio who was running towards him. His eyes reflecting worry and fear. "Seb, Seb-" He said was panting heavily. Sebastian held his shoulders. "Breathe first." He spoke gently and rubbed his back. Antonio gulped large ounces of air. "Now tell me, what happened?" Antonio looked at him. "I saw Xavier and Noah in the parking lot. They both were hightailing towards Noah's car. Xavier was carrying Rosaline. She was unconscious." Sebastian's eyes widened as soon as he heard his last words. "WHAT?" ***** Meanwhile "Everything is going to be okay. I am here. I am here, Rose." Xavier kept mumbling while kissi
At Knight HospitalJames's P.O.V."Rosaline is out of danger. She was exhausted of being inside the elevator for so long that's why she has become a bit weak. But I had given her the injections. She'll be alright, Xavier." I spoke as calmly as possible so as to assure the Mafia King who was sitting near his wife holding her hand gently while looking me with teary-eyes. But I lied to him. The truth is that Rosaline would have died today if she had stayed a bit longer inside the lift. But I can't tell this to Xavier otherwise he'll panic. His temper is already on the edge and I don't want to anger him more. He will lose his cool and God knows what he'll do if he comes to know that...Someone had tried to kill his Rosebud.I might be wrong but her pulse was too low when she was brought to the hospital. There is no chance that it was an accidental case. But I can't underestimate
"The day you enetered my life, I caged your soul in my heart I will always bring you to me even if I had to tear the world apart. You're my cute Santa who flooded my dark life life with gifts of happiness You became the reason of my sanity but also the reason of MADNESS" "I am so sorry my Rosebud." Xavier cried while hugging Rosaline tightly. He was sleeping beside her when all of a sudden, he felt some shuffling. He immediately opened his eyes and saw Rosaline staring at the walls in horror. Her eyes were wide opened and her lips were quivering in fear. "Rose, I-" "Leave me" Xavier became stunned to hear a harsh voice that belonged to none other than his Rosebud. He quickly broke the hug and looked at Rosaline only to find her glaring him. "Rose, what happened? Are you angry?" He cupped her face and tried to look in her eye
"What I thought, I did Don't teach me morals babe,I don't even give a shit I own your heart, your soul,your mind I go crazy without you,your love made me blind With you my life is colourful,without you it's black and white Leaving me was a wrong move Rose,so you better come back to your Mr. Right." Xavier's P.O.V."My beautiful innocent Rose"I murmured softly
"Come on Rosa, eat it" Jennifer whined while placing the spoon in front of Rosaline's lips. She scrunched her nose and turned her head sideways. "Urgg! Such a stubborn kid." Jennifer huffed in anger. She then clutched the spoon tightly with her right hand and with her left hand she pulled Rosaline's right cheek. She moaned in pain and slapped her hands away while glaring her. "Rosa! You have to eat it. You need to take your medicines" Jennifer said in a worried tone but Rosaline looked away from her and replied in a firm voice. "I don't want to eat. I am full now. And please, leave me alone." Jennifer was taken aback with her cold tone but then her gaze turned soft as she saw her petite condition. Rosaline was looking too weak and pale. She sighed but then put up a fake smile and chirped. "Alright Madam. But I won't leave until you finish all of this. Now common eat it. Say Ah~" She smiled while placing the spoo
"Our destiny was chosen by stars, My heart accepted you and raised its bars. I waited so long for you, My Princess, But that Psycho again came back and blocked the ingress He snatched you away from me, leaving me to bleed and scream I panicked and opened my eyes, realizing that was nothing just a bad dream ButIcan'ttakeany chances, nowIcan't ignore Enough of this cat and mouse chase, now it's time to declare a war I havelostmy patience now; I don't care even if the world witnesses my insanity I just know, I will do anything to stop this dream from becoming a reality." CIA'S Headquarters, America "THAT FUCKING ASSHOLE" An ear-splitting angry roar resonated inside the closed room as Vinc
Two days later Knight Heritage, Italy 7:00 p.m. Rosaline was sitting on the bed silently while lost in deep thoughts. She got discharged from the hospital two days ago. Rosaline had been fully recovered by now. Xavier had brought her back to the Knight Heritage. Emily, Jennifer and Antonio were stuck with her like a glue all the time. They were too delighted for heras that incident had for sure undermined her health. But Rosaline wasn't happy. Since she had returned from the hospital, Xavier was giving her a cold shoulder. Although she didn't let it become evident but deep down his impassivity hurt her. Love is so stupid. She doesn't even know what relationship she shares with Xavier. Was it love or hate? She wants to hate him but still her heart beats for him only, she wants to leave him but at the same time her eyes turn teary when she couldn't find him, she wants to shout a
"You think I don't care, you think I don't love you You may deny it thousand times but I know my indifference hurts you But that doesn't mean you can leave me, don't dare to use my silence as a gain Thinking that I am ignoring you so you can betray me again Don't think to play with me Rose, I can catch all your lies You thinkIain't watching you but I can sense your every move even with closed eyes." Next day Knight Heritage, Italy 8:30 p.m. Rosaline was in the living room along with Jennifer and Emily. They all were sitting on the couch and were busy chatting and laughing with each other. Emily and Jennifer were telling Rosaline about their previous Agent lives and their past experiences in CIA. Where Emily was boasting about her heroic Lara Croft stunts proudly,
Rosaline was currently in her room along with Emily and Jennifer while Xavier was at the church. They planned a simple ceremony this time and had only invited close friends and relatives. Emily and Jennifer were busy chatting with each other but Rosaline’s eyes were stuck on the entrance eagerly waiting for someone special. "You look pretty Rosa.", Antonio complimented her. He was looking too hot in his maroon Louis Philippe tuxedo with a black bowtie. Rosaline blushed and thanked him. "I agree with you Antonio but I am more interested in the girl who is standing beside our bride." Rosaline snapped her head towards the owner of that raspy voice only to see Noah staring intensely at Jennifer, basically checking her out while biting his lower lip. He was wearing a navy-blue Armani suit and had grown a stubble which gave him a rugged look. She then shifted her eyes towards Jennifer who was looking down with a flustered face. Noah smirked and stood next to her. T
Warning:18+ A year later Knight Heritage, Italy Rosaline's P.O.V. "Jennie, is today my wedding or have I come to attend yours?" I said and looked at Jennifer who was busy smacking her lips while looking in the mirror. Finally, the day for which we all have been waiting for one year arrived. Xavier was true to his words. He really used all his power and authority to get Vincent out of the bars. He hired best lawyers to fight for his case. My parents also forgave Vincent and requested the court to withdrew the charges against him but CIA demanded one year prison for Vincent as they still haven't forgiven him for robbing CIA's property. After all the efforts, the court reduced his punishment from three years to one. Vincent was released from jail yesterday. Xavier had already made all the arrangements for our wedding beforehand as he didn't wan
"He isn't here rather he was sent here by his kind-hearted Rosebud.", Vincent chuckled and winked at Xavier who was looking at him with killer eyes. Xavier marched towards his cell and smashed his hands on the iron rods hard making a loud sound. "Don't you dare speak her name.", he grinded his teeth in rage. Wills was looking at both of them with shocked eyes. Vincent scoffed. He then stood up and dusted his pants. "Are you here to fight?", he spoke in a mocking tone and crossed his arms. Xavier immediately turned stiff. He realized that he was again losing his temper. Xavier calmed down and lowered his gaze down when he realized the reason for which he had come. Indeed, it was not to fight with him rather than to apologise to him.Xavier then looked at Wills through his shoulders who stood frozen on his spot. "Leave." Wills didn't take a second and instantly scurried away as he didn't want to face the psycho's wrath. Xavier then took a deep breath
Two weeks later Rosaline's P.O.V. "What will happen now?" I whispered while staring at the city lights through the window. After that deadly fight, Xavier took me to Noah's mansion as we couldn't leave for Italy because of my injury. My surmise proved right as I had got a nasty, purple bruise on my lower rib because of that gunshot and doctors had strictly told me to stay in bed. I was completely healed by now and was currently dawdling the hours away in my room while Xavier and the others were in the living room. Everyone was too elated as the war had finally ended. CIA had withdrawn the case and vindicated Xavier and his gang as they have helped them in catching the thief who was robbing off their wealth. Vincent was sentenced to a three-year prison as he was conducted guilty for attempt to murder, kidnapping and stealing government's property illegally. And there was a possibility that his punishment can even increase beca
A loud gunshot echoed as Vincent shot Rosaline right on her stomach. A shuddering breath escaped her lips and in an instant her hand flew to her stomach as she felt an excruciating pain. Her steps staggered and she immediately fell down on the floor with a thud. Leon's jaw dropped to the ground. He had never thought that Vincent will really kill Rosaline. Caleb and Mr. Taylor too looked at Vincent in shock who was staring Rosaline with cold eyes. He was still holding the gun but his eyes were devoid of any emotion. They were hollow and his expressions were stone hard. His stance was rigid. He looked as if he didn't have an ounce of guilt for killing the girl for whom he had been crazy about all these years. Suddenly Leon's ears perked up hearing the sound of loud gunshots and explosions, one after the other. Vincent looked at Leon in confusion. A deep frown etched on his face when he heard the sound of choppers. He immediately cocked his gun and rushed outside the building b
~Flashback "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING? I WILL NEVER GIVE PERMISSION TO SUCH A PREPOSTEROUS IDEA OF YOURS, NOAH MILLER!!" Xavier yelled on top of his lungs while shooting daggers at Noah who was watching him blankly, unfazed by his outburst. "Listen, everything has a limit. And this mess has to be cleared one day then why not today? You will keep running from CIA and hiding Rosaline from the world for the rest of your life? I am just trying to be reasonable. We need to stop this now.", he tried to make him understand. Xavier shot him a glare. He marched towards him like a predator and grabbed his collar. "Are you even in your fucking mind? You are trying to risk her life. I will handle it in my own way. There- "HOW? BY MURDERING EVERYONE AS YOU USED TO DO IN THE PAST?" Noah shouted as he yanked away his hands harshly and growled. Xavier huffed in frustration.
Knight Heritage, Italy "Try to understand Xavier my parents need me." Rosaline cried while holding Xavier's hands who was glaring her with blood-red eyes. After Xavier and his gang returned to Knight Heritage, the first thing Rosaline asked Xavier was about her parents but what Elijah told her snatched the ground beneath her feet. "Rosaline, your parents are in danger. Vincent had abducted them." Since then, Rosaline was dying every second in apprehension and anticipation. Her mind had turned blank and she was continuously nagging Xavier to send her back to her parents like a child. Xavier abruptly pulled her in his arms and cupped her face in his hands. "And what about me? Why are you being so stubborn? Don't forget you promise me that you won't disobey me any-" Rosaline jerked his hands harshly and stood up. "WHAT THE
At CIA Headquarters, America "YOU'VE BEEN FEEDING ME THIS FOR DAYS!! HOW LONG ARE YOU GONNA TAKE?? THAT BASTARD IS STILL BREATHING AND MY WIFE IS STILL WITH HIM!! I WANT HER BACK AT ANY COSTS!! DO YOUR SHARPSHOOTERS NEED A FUCKING WHOLE YEAR TO KILL A SINGLE PERSON?" Vincent yelled on top of his lungs while glaring Leon with burning eyes. Leon along with his men was standing with his head hung low in shame and kept bearing his harsh words. The man who had tried to kill Elijah that day was a sharpshooter who was sent by none other than CIA. But the truth is that Leon had send him to kill Xavier but unfortunately Elijah was shot, indirectly saving the life of his friend. Since then CIA had sent hundreds of assassins and marksmen to hunt Xavier and his gang but they all returned with empty hands. Noah was the one who was failing all their attempts. Working in CIA for years, he knew Vincent very well. H
Xavier's P.O.V. I ran inside the hospital with tottering steps ignoring the fearful expressions of people who immediately moved aside to clear my way. After hearing the bitter news, I immediately took Rose to Knight Heritage as my first priority was to keep her safe. All these years of hard work and hardships proved fruitful to me and my gang as the Scorpions were successful in establishing their identity as the most fearsome and dangerous gang of the world with whom no one dares to trifle with. I left no stone unturned to make my empire as the most powerful gang of the underworld. But all our efforts went in vain as today not only someone attacked us but also try to kill one of the members of my septet. That was seriously a low blow to my reputation but it is also something which shouldn't be ignored because if someone can target my best trained men then it won't take a second for him or her to attack my Rosebud. I was losing my marble
