Kaden pushed him aside careful shaking his chest off any broken glass pieces and asking if Rose was okay.
"Thanks" He said and I nodded.
"You brough them here?" Rose asked.
"Yes, but I had no choice. I gave him a heads up throught another phone incase Aiden took mine" Rose leaned back on the wall as we call the cops ad wait for them. I brough Lily in the house since I couldn't leave her in the car but we had to keep her in the bathroom.
She couldn't be seen by the police. I only had to keep her hidden till I left with her to a town where I had a job to do.
I ended up explaining why she was with m

[Rose] I bite my nails as I watch the snow falling down from the windows. The constant chatter of the neighbors disturbing me, while I sit up and make myself some hot chocolate I contemplate whether I could make it to the club or not, I bite my lip sitting over my couch and watching the TV. When a call was heard from the counter of my kitchen and I groan. How could I leave my phone over there? I quickly ran over to it and picked up the call from the house mom of the club."Hey Rose, can you make it today? we need some girls in an hour. We have a room request" I sigh. "Ya, I'll be there in a few minutes" I replied hanging up and making my way to my closet. I picked something to dress up and grabbed my work bag calling an uber. I feared I wouldn't get a ride back home, But I could never refuse some money. Finishing up the now lukewarm hot chocolate that I made after putting on some makeup I made my way towards the wi

[Rose] My eyes opened at seven, my legs sore because of the heels. I was hungry and Tired. But something in me clicked. I didn't want to work for this office anymore. I didn't feel like working for something I did not apply for. I was supposed to be an editor. I was supposed to be working on projects that I trained for. But I was instead given the position of an assistant, I had to bring coffee, and get copies. Then prepare for meetings I was not involved in. I was never involved. I only sat at a chair noting things. For my boss. My hands brushed over my wet hair and I grabbed my hairdryer, It was already 7:45 until I was done getting ready. I did not expect to see David sitting over the kitchen counter drinking my orange juice. "Hey, Rose. Leaving for work?" I smiled nodding. "Uh, ya, I will in a while" He nodded. His eyes following me as I made myself a smoothie pouring it in my goto bottle.

[Rose] I stared at my face in the mirror and sigh putting on my lipstick for the second time. My time coming up for another dance. I could feel my feet getting sore minute by minute as I made my way towards the dance floor. My teeth unintentionally bit my lower lip softly as I suddenly saw Kaden standing near the stage. The club was filled with people because it was a weekend. I had t leave early today because I was going apartment hunting tomorrow morning. I didn't care about the size. I didn't care if it was not convenient. I just wished to leave the apartment I lived in. Because I wasn't getting any good vibes from David. I always feel his stare on me. I have witnessed him breaking into my room twice and running through my drawers now.

[Rose] I walk out the back door searching for a uber even though Carried lectured me about denying Kaden and being rude to him. She was right, It was rude of me to deny him. I just didn't see him helping me, and I thought it was a hassle for him. Afterall. All the other girls never get a ride from him or Coby all the time. They go home on their own. I have to learn to do so too. I stood there was a minute before my eyes noticed someone at my preferable vision. He was right there, near his car. About to get and I look at him. My lips curl inward as I desperately teach myself to apologize for my rude behavior. . And I see a visibly sigh walking over towards me. "Get in, I'll drop you" I bite her lip and he sp

[Kaden] I was in hurry to her home, I didn't believe myself. I had worried about her. I never worried about anyone. I heard something falling as she got out, she didn't look back but I watched her back as she made her way inside. I pulled my car out the road and just five seconds later heard something rolling over the passenger seat's legroom. I glanced over and saw a bottle rolling back and forth. I sigh turning the car around. I could surely find which apartment she lived in. I was walking up the stairs as I once saw her through the large windows facing out of the building. My mind getting irritated as I remember I could've just given it to her tomorrow. "What the fuck am I doing?" I mutter to myself scratching my eyebrow when I suddenly heard a distinct bang over a door above me. I walked up to two people trying to break in a door. My question was dissolved when we all heard a distinct 'help' sound.

[Rose] "Thank you so much" I thanked the guys beside us and they nodded, just a minute later the cops came in taking David away before taking my and others' statement. I declined the mention of medical need and said I just needed rest. I didn't need people around me. I didn't need medical attention. I wanted space. I still was processing the situation. At a point, it was just us left at my apartment, At two in the morning, "Thank you so much, Kaden. I-I" he got closer. Just enough close to not burst my bubble. I pause and lick my lips.Pulling my hands around me "Don't, It was a coincidence" He said and I frown, "But how did you-" He answered before I asked. "You dropped your bottle in my car, I was coming up when I heard your voice" Oh..

[Kaden] "Thank you," she said again, there was a moment of silence between us as she plays with her fingers While I stared at her, trying to understand why she was being like that. Suddenly it dawned upon me. The door was unlockable She was going to be alone for the whole night, After being harassed by a lunatic. She looked up with her eyes getting wide as I walked straight towards me. I noticed something, my hands life up on their own in inspect the wound over her neck but she slightly move back, it was a reflex. I didn't blame her for that considering what had just happened So I let my hands fall back down staring at her bruised neck. She was going to bring her hand up to touch it and suddenly my hand grabbed it stopping her. Her eyes looked into mine, shocked and conf

[Lily] I sat on my bed exhausted after reaching home late at night thinking over and over about if my parents will ever have second thoughts about marrying me to that cruel man. I had given up on asking them to give it a thought. I had no say in this marriage which involve me Ironically. I look at my unpacked bag sitting in front of me and look at my phone. I shook my head almost slapping myself, tears leak down my cheeks. I would be back in that town next month as soon as my father is done with his work. I go downstairs, maybe to check if they were awake. Maybe to see if I could pull it off. Running away, I wanted to see if they were asleep. I gulp as I see my mother clearing the plates and grab a pack of chocolates we bought on the way home. "Why aren't you in bed yet Lily?" I looked down in fear, "I am just exhausted and wanted a little snack," I said causing her to roll her eyes. "Well get to bed" I nodded tu

[Kaden] As I walk back to the car Coby pulled his car out the narrow road, I opened the back door. My heart stopped as I didn't see Rose anywhere. "Rose!" I yelled slamming the door close. My eyes move back to the two guys over the ground and I moved around in search of her, The relief that washed over my heart when I saw her back towards me. I walked near her. "Rose?" I touched her hand. "I am sorry you had to see that" She bites her lip. "You just, I-I " I couldn't help myself. Grabbing her face and pressing my lip against hers. She whimpered at my roughness. Her hands stayed near my chest and I pressed her body on mine. She was shivering in the cold. Her lips moved only a bit. But I didn't stop. Grabbing her chin and giving her a deep kiss before letting go. She was quiet. Very quite. It made my hands itch. Her face was flushed red, I wonder what she was thinking when I kissed her. I chuckled to myself. How cou

[Rose ] I made my way down the stage, I noticed the same man, right where he was, yesterday and a day before that. I was weird. We had regular people come every day but he just seemed weird. Ava was standing beside me commenting on a random funny incident when I realized these past few days I have been having at least one person around me when I was done with my dances. And carries only let my regular customers take a private dance. It didn't bother me as the money earned was not reduced. But It was weird. The bouncer grabbed my money taking it inside. I was standing in front of the bar when I gasp as I feel a hand on mine and I snapped my head back, relief washed over me as I saw who It was. "We need to talk," he said and I looked at Ava, Ava nodded walking away. "Get a dress, grab your stuff. We have to leave" I frowned. "But why-" He cuts me off "No questions Rose, Please trust me" I looked do

[Kaden] "Honey, if this will be going around I suggest you just pause coming here for some time till things cool off" Carried said and I roll my eyes. I look at the girls around before coming to a conclusion that Rose wasn't near before speaking. "I can't ask her to quit her job, Carrie. Even if I don't see myself liking it for her. I can't tell her what to do. I just have to make sure she is untouchable. I cannot take any chances" She chuckled. "Just tell me you fancy her" I clenched my jaw. Giving her a warning stare about never to speak about it again. Then walked out the door but feeling rather tied in my head. Was that the reason I wasn't to protect her at all cost ? Did I like Rose? I wanted no man near her and no women to be pulling her into any serious problems I just couldn't stop thinking about her. I wanted her, I wanted her all to myself. "Kaden, We have a problem" I look at Max. My eyes turning towards my men.

[Rose] "What did Aiden ask you?" I look at him, my gaze falling on my hand which was resting the table immediately. I never really looked him in the eye, I couldn't. Whenever I saw him look at me I did everything in my power to not let him bother me. "He just asked my name. Then told me he is the finance manager of the club? That everyone knows him" he nodded. "Ya, we know him well alright, That motherfucker" He curses. I creased my brows in confusion. "Rose, You need to be alert now. That man isn't good. You see him even looking at you, You come to me" Kaden said. I felt for the first time that someone cared for me, after a long time. "Or go to Coby" he continued after a pause. "He probably wants to talk to you now. Just don't talk to him. Remember. If you feel like you are been watching come to us" Coby explains making me more uncomfortable. Why couldn't the guy just be a random creep I meet at the strip club which I never se

[Kaden] "Rose!" I called her as I see her walking out, She didn't seem to hear and I forwn calling her again, louder and suddenly my phone rang I look down texting the guy back and asking him to call me back. "Rose" , She looked at me, but she somehow had this weird frown over her face, She seem tired. But we had to take her with us. I wasn't sure who exactly Aiden's men were after. But I couldn't risk him putting his hands on her. Not her. Anyone but her. "Hey. Why would you leave alone? You don't need to leave alone if you see one of us still here" Coby said walking near me. "I really don't need a ride. The place is ten minutes away. Plus I-

[Kaden] I was looking through the area when I see Rose, Rose with Aiden Miller, They were talking. I walked towards them without any second thought, I couldn't stand watching her talk with him. I see his eyes lift from hers to mine and I go stand right behind her. Her back press lightly against my chest and she suddenly went stiff. "Back in the city so soon Aiden?" He smiled, "Rose, Carrie is looking for you" she nodded walking to the back room. I stare at him, my jaw clenched. "She's isn't one of your toys." He rose his hands up and smiled. "Alright. But give me a reason?" I held myself back from punching him right in his face," She belongs to me. You keep your eyes off that girl. Or you'll find yourself in the same position I put your brother in" He took a step back, this time his smile fading. "Then take care of her ," He said walking out. I looked around noticing some men following him. I stare at Coby as he n

[Rose] I bite my lip as I see the men he brought take my stuff to the bedroom. "Are you going to the club today?" I nodded. "Ya, I'll leave by seven" He stared at his phone. "I'll drop you. Come down at seven I'll wait for you" "Oh-You don't have to" He glanced at me and his eyes shifted behind me. "You can leave now" His tone of voice changed for a second as the men nodded, I lick my lips staring at him as he watched them leave. He stared at his phone then looked at me, "I am going there anyway, I gotta go. Call me if you need anything" I nodded. "Thanks, Bye," I said as he nodded walking out, He did too much for me. I didn't know how I could repay him other than paying for the
