ROSALINE 11
ROSALINEI was dressed in a carton brown body con dress. It was floor length and had two spaghetti straps. I was glad it was padded so I wouldn't need to wear a bra and keep checking my breasts every now and then.I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled at my reflection. I paired it with a pair of black heels and wore a simple diamond necklace and earrings.I wore clean makeup and chose to use gloss instead of lipstick. I let my curly hair loose to hang around my waist in full volume and grinned at how I looked.Once in a blue moon, I would appreciate my beauty. That's because I rarely felt beautiful. Every time I looked in the mirror, I would remember those scars and the torture."He'll just leave when he sees them," I sighed and smoothened the dress with my hand. There was a knock on the door. "Come in," I said as I grabbed my black clutch and putting my phone in it."Boss is waiting for you downstairs," it was Igor.I turned to look at him. "Before you leave, how do I look?" I

ROSALINEI should have had a glass of wine. Wine always helps me endure stressful things. It was a habit I picked up from my mom, I think. I used to see her pour herself a glass of her favorite Italian wine before going to have an argument with my dad. She used to joke that it was like preparing for battle.At the end, she would come out victorious. And if she didn't, she wouldn't be moved. But not once have I ever seen my mother get drunk. She always lectured us on how unethical it was.It's not like Blaze or dad listened anyway."They're a lot," I said to Alexei as we walked into the large hall. He wrapped a protective arm around my waist, "You'll be fine." "If you don't feel comfortable, let me know," he said to me and I nodded."Volkov!"An aged man approached us. He was dressed in a very expensive suit with gold chains around his neck. I would have complimented his fashion if he hadn't gone overboard with his dressing.Who wears four heavy chains on their neck to a party?"Popov,

ROSALINESo, I got to know that Vincenzo, Bianca's husband was Alexei's cousin and the head of the Italian mafia. It explained the different accent she had. Not to mention that Vincenzo and Alexei had almost the same behavior. It was frustrating, to be honest.We had already spent about three hours at this party and I was getting tired already. Alexei had gone with Vlad, Igor and Vincenzo to talk about 'business.'They left Bianca and I alone to talk with prod and obnoxious women. I was tired of hearing them talk about the latest Prada clothes they just purchased and Bianca seemed to share my thoughts. She told them our husbands were calling us and grabbed me before whisking me away."I can't stand those women. This is why I didn't want to tag along," she huffed as we made our way to the bathroom. "Then why did you come?" I asked with a chuckle. "Because I didn't want any sly woman to touch my husband. He sometimes thinks with his dick," she grumbled."That's men for you," I patted h

ALEXEIHer face had drops of blood on it and her nose was bleeding. This angered me. I turned to Igor and Vlad. "Find those idiots and bring them to me."They nodded and took off. I turned to my cousin who was carrying his own wife. His face was filled with anger as he walked alongside me. "I'm coming over to torture them," he said to me. "You're welcomed anytime," I replied and he nodded.We said our goodbyes and went our separate ways. I got into the car and my driver started the engine before driving off.Rose was on my lap with her arms still around my neck. I brought out my handkerchief and wiped the blood of her face. Her nose was still bleeding."What happened?" I asked her gently. My shirt was stained but I didn't mind. My wife was more important at the moment."We went to the bathroom and those men followed us. They wanted to have a good time," she said jokingly and I rolled my eyes. How could she be joking like this."I have a headache," she groaned as she sat straight and

ROSALINEI was busy scrolling through Instagram when the door opened and Bianca walked in. I quickly stood up and went to meet her. we hugged immediately and laughed."How are you?" she asked me. "I should be asking you?" I chuckled. she flipped her long brown hair, "I'm perfectly fine, thank you." "Same here. I still don't know why he had to imprison me in his room," I said went to sit on Alexei's bed.Honestly, I preferred this bed to mine. Maybe it's because it had his scent on it.She took a seat beside me. "Enzo wouldn't stoop lecturing me when we got home. I was tempted to carve out his eyes with my heels," she said and I chuckled. "He was just worried," I said to her and she rolled her eyes. "We both know I'm not that easy to take out.""Did you come here alone?" I asked. She shook her head, "I tagged along with Enzo. They wanted to talk business and I wanted to see you and hang out."I smiled, "Thank you."ALEXEI"Ugh!" the bald idiot groaned as he spat out blood. "If I get on

ROSALINEI was awake on his bed in nothing but another pair of Alexei's shirt. When I meant nothing, I meant nothing. After yesterday's foreplay, he kissed me and said he had somewhere to go. He didn't come back until I think midnight because I didn't even know he woke up until I woke up this morning.I was mad at him for leaving and not coming back. I didn't even get a text from him and I was worried. I had to get his number from Igor and tried calling him but he wouldn't pick."Why are you glaring at my door?" his husky voice filled my ears. I huffed and wiggled myself out of his grip. "What's with the attitude, Rose?" he asked tiredly but didn't let me go.I was glad we didn't have sex yesterday; I would have felt worse."You left to only God knows where and then you show up in the middle of the night thinking I'll welcome you with open arms when I wake up? Hell no, buddy!" I turned to glare at him.He looked at me with an amused expression. "I honestly don't know the difference be

ROSALINE"If he lays a hand on you, you better call me and let me handle him," Blaze said with a hardened voice. I rolled my eyes at him, "I wonder how Lauren keeps up with you." He huffed, "Don't use her against me." "Stop being an overprotective asshole. I can handle myself well, you're not even in the same country with me!" I complained.Yeka just left after we came back from getting our nails done and I was busy admiring my new nails when my brother decided to call me. It's been a long time I've heard his voice.Don't get me wrong, I love my brother to the moon and back. But sometimes, his overprotective side gets so fucking infuriating and annoying. I hate how he behaves like I'm a china doll that can break easily. I'm made of flesh and bones!"I can't help it. Whenever I think of you, I get chills. Chills, Rose! I get fucking chills and a heart attack!" he exclaimed. I sighed and sat on my bed, "I can protect myself, Blaze. Alexei won't hurt me. And if he does, I'm not a weak b

ROSALINEI had my nose stuck in a book when I heard someone walk into the kitchen. Only God knows how I got here but I think Anya said something about me coming down in the kitchen.I looked up to see Alexei standing in front of the fridge. His shoulders were tense and I could tell that he wasn't happy. What happened?"Alexei?" I called as I stood up from the stool at the island and approached him. "In your best interest, I advise you to refrain from taking a step closer," his hard voice said.This man."A need a valid reason," I said stubbornly as I kept walking. He sighed and moved farther from my reach while he opened the bottled water in his hands. "I'm not in the mood for this because I know it will lead to an argument. Just leave me be," he said with a sigh as he walked out of the kitchen. I huffed and grabbed my book before following after him."What happened to you, Mr. Grumpy pants?" I asked as I followed him to his office. He wasn't going to get rid of me that easily. "Rose

EIGHT MONTHS LATERROSALINEA yawn left me as I opened my eyes to the sunlight on my face. With a groan, I turned around to face my other side. I was having a slight headache and I was also tired from staying up all night to feed Diana. Even my breasts hurt at the moment.I looked at the time on the wall clock to see that it was already noon. I've been asleep all morning. "I deserve a vacation," I moaned as I stretched my sore limbs. My phone began to ring and irritation filled me immediately. "Why would anyone be calling me at this time?" I huffed as I searched for the scrap of metal on the bed before getting it in my hands.After my previous phone was smashed into pieces, Alexei got me a new one. Me, being a woman that loves good camera squealed in happiness when I was gifted an iPhone 15. Really, I didn't care about whether it was cool or not, I just loved the camera. But I preferred Samsung though."WHAT?" I snapped to whoever was calling me. "Damn, woman. There's no need to be a

ROSLINEMy heart ached as I looked at him. His usually glowing skin was now pale. Even his lips were pale pink. I knew he lost a lot of blood. My chest felt heavy at the thought of losing him. "I'm so sorry," my voice came out broken. My eyes burned with hot tears as I placed my hand on his cheek. He felt a little warm under my palm but it did nothing to stop the ache in my heart."You're always getting hurt because of me," I sniffled and exhaled. This wasn't the first time he'd get injured all because of me. I was like a magnet of problems for him."I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," tears were falling down my cheeks. They were fat and ugly but I didn't care. They pain I caused Alexei was much more than this. "I'll make it up to you. I'll be a submissive wife, I promise. I won't ever defy your orders, I'll be good," I couldn't stop crying.ALEXEIThe pain I felt was too much and it was annoying. But what woke me from my sleep was a familiar cry. A cry that filled me with guilt.I opened my e

ROSALINE"What the hell?" Boris was enraged as he stormed towards the door. He walked out and it remained only the two men. I heard gunshots and a loud bang again. I exhaled shakily.I looked at Alexei who raised a brow at me. I nodded in response. He looked away from me and my gaze fell on his thigh. It had slowly stopped bleeding but he needed to be treated quickly.I didn't want to cry but it was so hard not to. I sniffled. Every part of me wanted to rip free and run to him. Even though he didn't let it show, I knew he was hurting.The door was slammed open, catching my attention and Yeka walked in holding a gun and covered in blood. Without a word, she shot the man behind me before he could move. "You bi-" the other man was about to punch her but she kicked his groin and shot him in the head. "Babe, sorry I took long," she ran to me and untied me. "Thank you," I sniffled as she helped me up.We ran to the guys and began to untie them. "I'm so sorry," I choked out when my hand tou

ROSALINE"Where are you heading to, ma'am?" one of the guards asked when I got to the gate. I couldn't believe the gate was so far from the mansion. But I guess it was for safety reasons.Swallow the lump I felt in my throat, I faked the most realistic smile I could muster. "Well, the weather seems nice for a walk. Don't you think?" I asked him. The other guards looked at each other with confused looks."We can get a car and escort you," the man in front of me said. I shook my head and waved him off, "There's no need for that. I will be back in nothing more than an hour. So, please open the gate."They gave me a hesitant look but I widened my smile to convinced them. It worked, thankfully.I thanked them as they opened the gate and I walked out.There were no buildings in this area. Only trees and a road path. I exhaled, running my hand through my hair and began to walk down the road. I hoped Alexei and Vlad were still alive.When I got to the main street, I hailed a taxi to take me

ROSALINEOnly God knew how long I stayed in my mother's arms, crying my heart out. She quietly stroke my cheeks as I calmed myself down. I missed her touch so much that my heart ached badly."You're still a baby," she chuckled softly and I sniffled as I sat up."I'm sorry," I wiped my cheeks. I haven't cried this much in a long time. I don't even know if it's the pregnancy hormones or what. She chuckled again and gave me a bright smile. The door opened and I turned to see Anya walk in with a mop in her hands."Oh my!" She gasped and the mop fell from her grip. She began to speak in Russian as she approached us with wide eyes filled with happiness.The my mother replied her in the same language. My eyes widened in shock as I snapped my head to her in disbelief. Anya looked shocked too."I will go and make soup now!" She squealed happily and ran out of the room.I stood up and disconnected the IV from her arm. "Can you stand up?" I asked her as I pulled the covers off her. "I don't know

ROSALINE"Mommy see! have a birdie!"I turned to look at Blakely who was holding up a bird shaped dough in her hand. "That's wonderful, sweetie. Now place it on the pan," I pointed at the pan beside her.She nodded and did as she was told.Anya had gone grocery shopping and Blakely and I were hungry so we decided to make cranberry and chocolate cookies. We also planned on making ice cream but that will be after we were done with the cookies.When we were done cutting out the dough, I placed the pan in the oven and we began to clean up.More than thirty minute later, we were seated by the counter eating ice cream and cookies. They tasted like heaven and I felt satisfied."I am hungry!" Yeka sang as she walked in. "Auntie!" Blakely waved happily. Yeka chuckled and approached her. "Hello to you too, little bean," she pecked the little girl's forehead and took a seat beside me.I glared at her when she took one of my cookies."There are left overs on the counter and there's ice cream in t

ROSALINEI looked at my reflection with satisfaction. I looked like a mother with the way I was dressed in a floor length green dress. It was A shaped and had gold embroidery on it, making it look so beautiful.My baby bump was a bit evident and I wondered how I'd look like if I was full into my third trimester.When I was still working as a doctor in the hospital, I had come across different types of pregnant women. Some of them made me want to get pregnant while the others made me thank God for making me single.And no, I'm not joking.I wasn't the type to get pimples on my face but I think this pregnancy was meant to humble me because I don't understand why there were pimples scattered across my forehead."I look like shit," I huffed when I noticed them. And previously, I was admiring myself.What a wonderful day it is.Identify the sarcasm please.I decided to put on makeup then. It wasn't the heavy type, just minimum but enough to cover my ugly pimples. They weren't actually ugl

ROSALINE"Hey, mom," I said as I walked into the room, pulling Alexei with me. He offered to follow me this time and I loved the idea. The room was properly lit with the window blinds pulled aside so there would be ventilation.I was really grateful to Anya for this."Sit here," I put Alexei on the arm chair beside the bed and sat on the bed. There was silence and I watched as he looked at my mother before speaking up. "You look just like her," he said and I nodded. "Now you know where I got my looks from," I said proudly as I wiggled my hands over my face making him chuckle. "You miss her," he stated and I nodded. I looked at my mother. "I've always craved for her warm hugs. I miss her sweet voice," I told him. "She can sing?"He looked genuinely interested and it made me smile. Marcus never really cared about the little things that I liked."She used to be an opera singer. She taught my brother and I how to sing and play a few instruments," I told him.He raised an amused brow at m

ROSALINEI just entered my second trimester!My baby bump was starting to become evident. I couldn't stop staring at it in the car as the driver took us to the hospital to get my prenatal and to take an ultrasound."What's wrong?" I turned to look at Alexei who was looking at me with a frown. "I'm getting fat," I pouted and rubbed my stomach. It was protruding and round.Oh my God!"I don't see that," his frown deepened. I rolled my eyes, "It'll soon be evident. I'll become fat with swollen legs and pimples all over my face. I'll become ugly."Alexei rolled his eyes and said something in Russian. "I'm getting a personal AI because of you," I huffed and turned to face the window. He chuckled and pulled me to him."I said you'll incredibly beautiful no matter what happens to you," he said and placed my hand on his chest. "Even if I was a worm?" I asked. He glared at me, "Why do you always have the reasoning of a child?""Why do you act like a grandpa?" I shot back.He raised a brow at
