Rosalie had practically ignored Giovanni's confession, rolling her eyes to seem uninterested, but inside she didn't know how to feel. Genesis sensed the growing tension and immediately changed the topic, "I'm bored, how about we go diving off the waterfall?" He asked as Rosalie's eyes widened, "Hell no, you can go, I'll happily watch you jump to your death," she said earning an eye roll before Genesis swam over to her. "No! Put me down, Genesis!" She yelled, kicking her feet as Genesis carried her to the waterfall with Giovanni trailing behind them. He was pissed, he knew Rosalie heard and understood what he said, but she chose to ignore it and it hurt. Watching how easily she got along with his twin made him jealous and curious to know what made him so different, what did he do to be treated so differently? "Please, Gen, I don't want to do this, I'm not good with heights," she begged as they reached the bottom of the waterfall, where he placed her on the ground of a cave before pu
“Hello, Rosalie, my name is Marcus.”Rosalie froze in her spot as she stared at the man in front of her. His presence was suffocating as he stared into her eyes with something she didn’t recognize. She subconsciously took a step back as his children smirked beside him.“I’m aware of who you are,” she said taking another step back and bumping into another body, starting herself as she looked over her shoulder to see Genesis before Giovanni stepped in front of her, “Good things I hope,” Marcus said ignoring the twins’ presence.“Define good things,” she said grabbing onto the back of Giovanni’s shirt while Genesis held her waist, “You look just like your mother, how is she?” He asked earning a scoff, “She’s dead,” she nonchalantly responded as his expression dropped.“I’m sorry-“Is there a reason why you’re here?” She asked cutting him off causing Cora to glare threatening as she step forward only to be stopped by her father, who sighed, “I heard about the issue you had with your other
Their lips molded together, fitted against one another with stunning perfection. Rosalie had never felt as she did now, exploring the taste of him. Feeling the strength of his arms around her. Inhaling sweat and forest dirt and woodsmoke. His scents. She felt as though she’d found a moment of forever. Like this was how they should’ve always been.But unfortunately, the moment had ended when Genesis pulled away leaving a string of saliva stretching between their parted lips. They panted unable to process what had just happened, it was different, and although this would’ve been Rosalie’s second kiss, she knew that this wasn’t any normal kiss.It was gentle but passionate and tense. It was as if they were each other’s breath or each other’s will to see by the way their tongues were desperately caressing against one another. It was out of this world like when she jumped off the cliff, thrilling but deliciously suffocating.Genesis moved away, looking down with his jaw tightly clenched, “I
Dear readers, it's your author here and I'd like to notify you of something in this chapter. Throughout the chapter, you'll notice that the perspective of the characters has been played with a bit because I'm doing some experimenting and trying to find my comfort writing zone, so please don't be confused, it's only Rosalie's perspective that has been changed. ____________________________________________“Who’s the bitch now?” Genesis mocked as Giovanni growled before rushing in with a powerful right hook punch Genesis met him halfway with a dodge before thrusting a quick jab to the mouth and nose catching Giovanni off-guard as his head jerked backward.Opening his eyes as he woke up from the expected daze, Giovanni spat a bit of blood on the floor before charging toward Genesis as he grabbed him around the waist, and hurled him into the dirt with such force that it scattered everywhere.Genesis rolled over like a cat, gasping for air before rolling from under Giovanni’s driving foot
“Hey, Rosalie, are you okay?” Giovanni asked as he walked up behind Rosalie, startling her as she turned around, “Woah! Hey, it’s me, are you alright?” He asked as Rosalie stared at him before sighing shakingly, “Yeah, I’m fine, just a bit shaken up,” she replied as Giovanni continued to stare at her in concern, “Are you sure, we can leave if you-“What’s that?” She asked cutting him off, directing her words to the box in his arms as he looked down, “Oh, we found this outside in the trash can, it seems to be your mother’s things,” he said earning a gasp as Rosalie stepped towards him before removing the lid.Smiling as tears welled up in her eyes, Rosalie looked back at Giovanni before taking the box from his arms, “Thank you,” she said sniffling as Giovanni nodded before wiping away her tears that fell, “You’re welcome,” he said before his name was called, “I gotta go help them out,” he said pointing behind him as Rosalie nodded, “Can you take me home after?” She asked weakly, “As so
“You’re an idiot,” Giovanni said as he held Rosalie in his arms, “I-um,” Rosalie said speechlessly as she continued to stare into his eyes before looking down at his naked chest, “What the hell were you thinking, you could’ve gotten seriously hurt,” he continued to scold but his words fall on deaf ears.“What are you doing here, and w-where’s your shirt?” she asked in a whispery-stutter as Giovanni looked at her before poking his tongue into his cheek to conceal his amusing smile before he placed her on the ground as she stepped away.“I was on my morning run and decided to pay my parents a visit until I saw you mission impossible climbing out of your window,” he replied as Rosalie’s face burned, “Oh, that’s good,” she said as Giovanni raised an eyebrow causing her eyes to widen, “No! I mean e-excerise! Exercise is good,” she quickly said as Giovanni looked down chuckling before looking back at her with his lip under his teeth.“What are you even doing up so early, Rose?” He asked as
Throughout the rest of the day, the twins accompanied Rosalie as she painted, Which turned into an atmosphere filled with endless laughter and teasing. but in the end, they all did what they truly wanted, they got to know one another which made them even more comfortable around each other. Rosalie had regretted not getting To know the twins from the very beginning, who turned out to be laid back and impressive, which brought her thinking about the words she had told Genesis that day when they kissed.“I don't want Giovanni,” And that was true at that moment, but now she wasn't sure. Her feelings were so confusing and she needed to figure them out because pretty soon, it'll be too overwhelming for her to handle.“Whoa! This looks great,” Genesis said dusting his hands after he and Giovanni pushed my bed back in place as I stood behind them with a smile on my face.The walls of my room were newly painted and with my things back in their original place, it felt like a jungle. The wall
Rosalie was excited to show her grandparents her new haircut that she had gotten, so after saying goodbye to the twins, she took a shower, and wash her hair before getting out of the bathroom.As she entered her room, still wet from the shower and hair drenched, she then began walking to her Chester draw passing the long mirror to only stop mid-way before walking back to stand in front of it.Standing there as she touched her hair, Rosalie couldn’t believe who she was staring at, this wasn’t the person that first came to Queensland, no, she looked different, felt different, and gave off a different vibe.Lost in her thoughts, Rosalie was suddenly startled by a sudden voice, “Hey,” it greeted as Rosalie looked around, the voice came out of nowhere causing Rosalie’s heart to race. It sounded feminine, soft, and mellow, “Who are you?” Rosalie softly questioned as the atmosphere suddenly grew warm and soothing.“Don’t be scared, I’m someone very important, you’ll know and understand in du
Everything seemed to snap back into reality as that familiar voice echoed in the darkness of the morning. But it was a bit too late. The people had gathered around Benjamin’s house, with stakes of fire and weapons ready to end the Gracies and their remaining family. Rosalie had made it to her grandfather’s house, but she was too late. A group of men that she remembered from the market had recognized her and held her captive before they began throwing torches at the house along with glass bottles of gasoline. Rosalie knew that the twins were in the house, she could smell their scents, but she could also smell the scent of rotting flesh, which caused her head to turn in the direction of her grandfather’s barn, where she saw the freshly covered graves. Tears gathered in her eyes as her knees became weak causing the men to hold her up. Her heart shattered knowing that her grandparents were in those graves, they were gone, and she wasn’t even there to see them be put to rest. Her momen
“Was it true what Paul said?” Genesis asked as both he and his brother sat in Benjamin’s living room, “You know it’s true,” Giovanni said as he sat on the couch with his head thrown back and his arm over his face.“No, it’s not, from the start it’s been us, Gio, why are you giving up all of a sudden?” Genesis asked, causing his brother to groan in annoyance before he removed his arm from his face to look at his brother.“Because I’m reckless, I’m too possessive, I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m the one to drive Rosalie away when we eventually get out of here, let’s be realistic here, Genesis, even our father knew I would probably do some dumb shit that’ll get me killed,” he said, as Genesis stared at him silently.“Is this because of her being pregnant, we don’t even know if the baby is mines, it could be yours,” he said, earning a scoff, “You’re the last person she had sex with, stop trying to deal with this situation as if I had just gone through a hurtful break-up and I need cheering
The knocking continued as Rosalie exited the bathroom, with the piece of glass hidden. Slumping back in the corner where she found comfort, the door opened. Slowly pushing in as the light shined in, ‘Rosalie?” Koa called out as he looked around the room, his eyes dew in tightly.The lights flicker on, lighting up the room as Rosalie is immediately spotted. Koa’s face went pale as he took in Rosalie’s appearance, "What has he done to you?” He asked, spotting the dry blood on the bed sheet. Rosalie remained silent, looking down at the floor, listening to every word that he said with anger boiling in her body.“Why do you care, I’m not your sister, your sister is dead, just like my grandparents,” she said brittly as her lips curved in a visible humorless smile that Koa failed to see, “I know, Mateo, he killed them,” he said, walking to her side before kneeling in front of her, guilt filling his eyes and tone, “I’m so sorry,” he said, earning a hum, “You’re sorry, why are you sorry?” She
Benjamin’s house echoed with roars of loud cries. So loud and hysterical that if someone was to pass by, they would be greatly disturbed by the sound of the person’s expression of pain. The house was dark, a depressing dark that sent shivers down the spine. Inside, the cries seemed louder and they led to Benjamin and Melody’s bedroom. Inside, the twins sat on Benjamin and Melody’s bed and held them in their arms. Giovanni held Benjamin, while Genesis held Melody. They both bawled and screamed until their voices strained and turn hoarse. Their eyes turned a bright shade of ember yellow and their faces turned red.Their clothes and faces were covered in tears and blood as they held the people that they saw as second parents closer to them, gently rocking as they continued to cry in disbelief. This was so unreal to them, they couldn’t believe it because a few hours ago they were alive, they were fine, and now they were dead. Maybe it would’ve been different if they had stayed as Melo
Night had fallen over Queensland and it seemed peaceful. The night was beginning to feel chilly and the wind blew harshly. Benjamin’s house was empty, the twins had gone home and Paul was still nowhere to be found, leaving Melody and Benjamin home alone.The couple was getting ready for bed, Benjamin sat in his wheelchair staring out of the window as his nerves began to skyrocket. This night felt strange to him yet he felt destined for this night, and it struck fear in his heart.Sighing shakingly, Benjamin turned around in his chair to find his wife laying sideways on their bed as she stared at him with love and care in her eyes, “How did I get so lucky,” she mumbled as Benjamin chuckled, “Shouldn’t I be the one staying that?” He asked as she shook her head before getting up from the bed.“No, and you want to know why?” She asked, walking towards him before sitting in his lap as he stared into her eyes, “Why?” He asked as tears welled up in her eyes, “Because you already had the love
Days passed and Rosalie grew sicker and sicker until she began to look not like herself. Mateo had locked her in the room and refuse to give her food until he felt the need to give her food. He took away her need for clothes and water and just left her there isolated.…I slowly felt myself going insane as the days went by. It was a total nightmare, I grew sicker and my stomach remains unnoticed, but to me, it felt chubbier and a bit firm underneath my navel. I couldn’t believe I was pregnant, I was so happy but miserable as I thought about the twins. I had lost hope now. Everyone knew of me being the Luna, meaning my family knew, and I fear that their reaction would be that of disappointment and betrayal, especially from the twins, and I fear I might lose them.My plan had backfired on me when Mateo found out that I was one hundred percent pregnant. He was furious, so angry that he took it out on me. I felt like dying.…Mateo didn’t believe that I was pregnant, which brought me rel
Rosalie whimpers as Mateo grabbed her by the arm before yanking her out of the bathroom, “Let. Go. Of. Me!” She gritted through her teeth as they entered the bedroom before Mateo forcefully shoved her towards the bed as she tumbled, hitting her side against the mattress frame that was sticking out. “What the hell is wrong with you!” Rosalie asked as she held her throbbing side, “Doesn’t matter what I do to fully make it clear that you’re mine, you always belong to them, and now you’re pregnant with one of their mutts,” he scoffed in disgust, earning a growl from Rosalie as she stood up, “Don’t you dare talk about my child with your filthy mouth,” Rosalie spat before Mateo backhanded her, “Watch how you speak to me, I’m your Alpha,” Mateo said as he towered over her body that laid on the bed. “You’re not my Alpha, never was and will be,” she said, staring up into his dark eyes as blood trickle down her chin, “You know- Mateo began to chuckle before full-on laughing as Rosalie’s face
After Mateo had left his room, he decided to visit his sister at the hospital. He felt truly disgusted and betrayed. He had known of Cora’s obsession with Giovanni, but Cora was young and naive, their father had ruined her, but Indie was the more mature one of them all, so hearing that she was in love with his biggest enemy made his heart filled with hatred towards his sister, and maybe Rosalie was right, maybe he needed to pay more close attention to the people that surrounded him, including her. As the Alpha entered, everyone went silent, watching in fear as he came in with a furious look on his face. Walking up to the front desk, the nurse behind it squeals in fear before casting her gaze down, “W-Wait can I do for you, Alpha?” She asked as Mateo cleared his throat, “I’m here to see my sister,” he said as the woman quickly nodded, “She’s in room 234,” she replied as Mateo quickly left, causing everyone to sigh in relief. Heading to Indie’s room, Mateo found himself getting angrie
Throughout the rest of the day, Mateo had been glued to Rosalie’s side. He felt happy and was blindingly in love to notice that the woman beside him was miserable as she hid behind a fake front. After the tour of the house, Mateo had to leave, he seemed to be in a hurry and he looked unhappy, but he trusted Rosalie enough to allow her to continue exploring. Rosalie sighed in relief as she watched Mateo hurry away. She felt like she could breathe again and now she has business to fulfill. Rushing down the hall, Rosalie paid extreme attention to the structure of the house. Each opening and exit, the windows, cameras, items she could use as weapons, and most importantly, the people.Rosalie realized that Mateo hadn't fully trusted her yet because the house was heavily surrounded. There were guards at every exit, paying close attention to the surroundings of the house. She sighed heavily, knowing that this would be harder than she thought.She needed to think, she needed to come up with
