Rose followed Nicholas to the meeting area where all the other people are. Everyone gathered, facing Nicholas. Ellen would not stop giving Rose death glares. Rose returned the favour by two times what she did. It annoyed Ellen to see how bold Rose has become.

Nicholas saw the way the two women were glaring at each other so he decided to intervene. He cleared his throat to address everyone.

"Everyone, I gathered you here to inform you of the latest development today." He started. "As some of you know, I went to a meeting this morning."

Rose decided to listen carefully. Every time, it scares her when he talks about something especially if he is looking at her while saying it.

"I went to a meeting with the Italian mafia bosses this morning and guess what I found?... Some of you have been leaking my information to them." Nicholas blurted out.

Everyone began to murmur, looking at each other. Rose gasped lowly, is this a coincidence or what?

    Nicholas did not understand why she kept silent. He moved closer to her but she kept moving back. Then he saw the reason why. Her eyes are widened, staring at the gun in his hands. He immediately put the gun away. "Why aren't you telling me? I want to know how you are feeling." He demanded. Rose's heart dropped, in relief. "How... How am I doing?" He nodded, "You were passed out since yesterday and we've barely had time to talk. Are you okay now? Tell me how you are feeling." Rose sighed in relief one more time, he didn't catch her yet. He was talking about her health. She decided to play it as she would. "I am better, thanks for asking." She replied him and wanted to walk away. However, he pulled her by the arm and stopped her from leaving. He looked her straight in the eyes like he was searching for something. She didn't understand what was going on with him but his eyes seems to be softer than before. "What do you want? I thought I already told you I

    Rose moved away from him a little. She doesn't understand why he made her heart beat like that. It's scary for her. "Why are you doing this? Aren't you done with joking with me? Just stop it already, you are taking things too serious." She shyly said looking away. Nicholas sighed, "It's my first time after a very long time confessing to a girl. I know it's not easy for you to accept my yet, just don't leave." He pulled her to the bed and made her sit down. It's all confusing for Rose as she saw the sincerity in his eyes. Did he really fall for her? So soon? "You are actually... Serious?" Nicholas held her hand, "I am telling you the truth. I know I didn't want to talk about love. But the moment you wanted to leave, I realized how much you mean to me." Rose shook her head thinking, “Is he the idiot or am I the foolish one for letting this happen? This is to my advantage, why am I so sad?” Rose removed her hand from his, "I... I don't know. You might be doing this out of gui

    Some days later, things between Rose and Nicholas are going well. She's been going to training and the one training her is Nicholas. Since he is not willing to let another man touch her, he decided to do it himself. He found himself liking her more every passing day. "That's all for today. You should get changed and come home with me." Nicholas suggested after the end of a training session. She scoffed, "You just love showing off to everyone, don't you? Thanks to you, the girls here think I am getting special treatment because I share your bed." His eyes widened, "What? Who said that? Tell me their names right now!" She laughed, "Look at you getting worked up when I am the one getting insulted. It's okay, I've heard worse things than this before. It's not the first time." This made Nicholas feel somehow bad for her. Maybe his love for her is getting stronger every day. She was able to break the walls he built for years with so much ease. "I know what to do

    "What's going on?" Nicholas who is confused by her sudden fear asked her. He tried to get the phone from her and she didn't give him. She quickly deleted it and put it back on the table. "What was that? What scared you like that?" He asked her. "It's nothing important. I just had a jumpscare because of a spam message. I deleted it." She stated. However, that was not enough to convince Nicholas as he is a very smart man. He didn't take his eyes off her and saw how she was still trembling. "Are you sure you don't want to tell me about it? Is someone threatening you?" He asked her again. She realized that she needs to do more than shaking like that to stop him from investigating further. "I am fine. Stop worrying already. It was just a moment of fear, I am fine now." She assured him. He nodded, "If you say so then. You should eat up so you can rest. You already look pale in just a few minutes." Rose smiled, "You exaggerating. You shouldn't

    Rose did not stop getting threats from the organization day after day while she stayed with Nicholas. She was very worried that she finally decided to see Don Bernardo herself. Nicholas has travelled for a few days so Rose decided to go out alone without having the bodyguards follow her. Nicholas didn't want her to get into trouble again so he asked some people to follow her wherever she goes and protect her. She managed to convince them to stay away and sneaked to the organisation undercover. On getting there, she happened to bump into Harry. "Look who we have here." Harry smiled evilly which is totally annoying for Rose, "You finally decided to say hi. I thought you wouldn't want to come back thanks to your new lover." Rose scoffed, "As you can see, I didn't come here to talk to underdogs. Move out of my way, I have important things to do." This angered Harry, Rose is disrespecting him again. He wanted to say something but Kay came into the scene at that time

    Don Bernardo stared at Rose and saw her determination to not be moved by what he says. He simply scoffed and poured himself a drink. "Are you threatening me dear?" He questioned, gulping the drink. "I don't care what you think. I've had it up to here." She pointed to her neck, "I can't take it anymore! So you better stay away from me you jerk!." "Are you sure you want to do this? You're sure you won't regret this? Think about your precious sister, the whole reason you got into this in the first place." Don Bernardo is trying to guilt trip her and she can see it. She suddenly started laughing hysterically like a mad woman. Don Bernardo is flustered by her actions and did not know how to stop her. She laughed hard that tears even came out of her eyes. Then she stopped laughing like that. "You're finally coming out of your shell." Don Bernardo complimented. "Why? Do I look crazy?" She asked sarcastically. He nodded, "You seem like the real you now. Y

    Tension built in her as she stood in front of him. She did not know the right words to say as she is too stunned to speak. She never expected he would come back so soon especially today that she visited the organisation. What if he has been watching her all along? How much does he know? "Why aren't you saying anything? I asked where you have been." He asked her again. She scoffed, "What's this? You didn't tell me being with you mean I have to be under your control." "What?" "I can't go anywhere I want like a child, I must get your permission and I can't do whatever I want. You think I like this relationship if that's what I'll keep going through?" She snarled at him. The way she turned the tables too fast was unseen. Nicholas did not expect her to think that way as he only meant something else. "I only asked because I was worried about you. You went out without the boys so I was worried you could get into that kind of situation again. Why are you getting

    "Yes! Harder daddy!! Rock me!..." She moaned crazily while he rode her hard. She wrapped her hands on his neck and legs around his torso as he placed her on the dining table and fucked her there. She became a moaning mess in a matter of minutes. They are both people who cannot control themselves when they see each other. She pushed her head back in pleasure, he moaned along with her as she was too hot for him. Things weren't like this a few minutes ago. FEW MINUTES AGO Nicholas snatched the phone from Rose and her heart sank. She calculated that he'll see everything on her phone that she hasn't hidden and he will find out everything. Besides, the message she just saw was in front of her phone screen. She doesn't even know what the message says yet and he already took the phone from her. His eyes are already dark which scared Rose a lot. "What do you want?" She asked while he raised her phone up. "What do you think? I'm taking the phone away from
