Loracn's pov.My heart pounded with fear and worry as I nervously called for an ambulance. My fingers trembled, when I heard Rose crying in severe pain and sweating profusely. I know something is wrong and this is not normal yet I feel so helpless. I have never felt so scared in my entire life."L-Lorcan…" I anxiously watched over her, unsure of what had happened to her so suddenly. She was fine when we were at Grandma's. "It's…hurts so..b-bad!""It's alright, love!" I went to her, she immediately stiffened in my arms. "The ambulance is coming, you'll be fine," I comforted her, rubbing her back and belly but her face was getting paler much to my dread.The ambulance arrived soon, and I rushed them to quickly take Rose to the hospital. I followed them closely behind, my mind racing with conflicting thoughts of what could have caused this sudden and dangerous situation. I was taking care of her personally, and not a single moment I left her alone so where things have gone wrong.I wante
Lorcan's pov."P-Please, Lorcan! I swear I didn't do anything….!"My hand trembled slightly as I pressed the cold blade of the knife against her neck, my eyes lightening up at her begging."No! Don't do anything to my mom," I heard her bastard son screaming, but he should care about himself more than her because he's next.I slightly moved my hand which shut them up immediately. She squinted her eyes, as my hand threatened to pierce the knife through her neck. The only sound that could be heard was my shallow breaths and their crying."Why did you do that to Rose?" I asked one last time, giving her a chance to change her faith by telling me the truth.She opened her teary and frightened eyes and gazed at me in fear as she struggled to find her voice. "Lorcan, please…I don't know what you're talking about. W-Why would I want to hurt her–!"She sucked in a breath when I tightened the grip around the knife, her trembling eyes following my every action. "I didn't ask for an explanation, f
Lorcan's pov.I can't describe the extreme terror I felt when I learned Rose was in danger. I felt that the ground under my feet became uneven, and my head became dizzy. My whole body seemed to be crumbling and scattering on the ground, it was the most helpless feeling I have ever felt.It was the same feeling as when my mother died. The grief tightened my chest, making it hard to breathe. I seem to hear the sound of my heart breaking. At that moment, I wish I could dig out Cherry's and his son's hearts!Rose is the first hope I have ever seen in my whole life. Even a small thought of losing her scared me to death, it felt like I was thrown again into the past where I was completely alone.But when her face flashed in my mind, the look of worry and anxiety she always carried with her, the way she looked at me with her bright smile, and the way her eyes sparkled whenever they gaze at me, I knew she didn't want my life to fall into darkness again.I never cared how much blood I have on
Lorcan's pov.I looked into her eyes, they were more beautiful than ever and I could just stare into them forever. "I promise you, I will solve all the obstacles of yours. You don't have to worry about a thing and just live freely, and I'll take care of everything."She gently shook her head, her lips spreading into a bright smile that was doing things to my heart. "There's no real freedom in this world. We all have to accept the supervision of discipline, whether we like it or not. And even though I know how powerful you are, these burdens will always be there. No one in the world can remain in the dark with ease, it's just a matter of time before they stumble eventually."My brows furrowed as I tried to take in her words. I had always relied on my strength and abilities to overcome any challenges, but her words gave me pause. And she's right, power alone couldn't always shield me from all the difficulties of life.She rested her hand on her belly, her eyes shining with hope. "When o
Rose's pov.A smile spread across my face as I watched Lorcan's sleeping face. As promised he was here when I woke up, I reached out my hand to gently stroke his cheek, he looked at peace while sleeping. Now that I have confirmed his mind, I feel at ease. I can see the love and affection in his eyes, he treats me as if I mean the world to him, as if I'm the most precious thing to him.He jerked at my touch, his eyelashes fluttered and he opened his eyes. He blinked a few times before his lips curled into a sleepy smile when they met mine. "Good morning, my love," He murmured, his voice husky from sleep. He leaned in and planted a gentle kiss on my lips. I couldn't help but feel giddy at his affection."Good morning," I smiled back. I moved closer to him, enjoying the warmth coming from him."You know I wonder what the baby will look like," He mused, his fingers absently tracing circles on my belly.I chuckled softly, my hand joining his on my belly. "I have been thinking the same thin
Rose's pov."Why don't you..stay for dinner, dear?" Grandma looked at me with a warm smile and eyes full of hope. I didn't understand how to answer her, after the last incident I'm uneasy about eating anything here. Not like I don't trust her, it's just I don't trust other people. The way Cherry was drilling holes in my face, I don't wanna take a risk.I glanced at Lorcan because I also don't want to break Grandma's heart. As if reading my eyes he gave me a small nod and looked at grandma. "Thank you, granny, but I don't want to take any risk after what she has encountered here." He told her politely on my behalf. Grandma's face dropped but it's for the best.Grandma had fired all the maids, but she doesn't know that Cherry is the real problem here."Alright, but make sure she eats healthy," She sighed heavily."I will, Grandma," I smiled, and that finally her face lit up again. We left after a while.As we returned to our home, it felt more comfortable and cozy here. So, without wast
Rose's pov.I never expected that working could be fun and exciting. We're working for hours now and I'm having the time of my life that working with Lorcan.Lorcan is a hard-working guy, I already knew this fact but he looked amazingly hot while working. Well, I didn't expect him to him be so attracted to me, but he's a package full of surprises.He had been pacing back and forth in the living room, his brow furrowed in deep thought.After hours of analysis, he finally broke the silence. "You're right, we should do TV dramas," He declared, his eyes fixed on me.I gave him an encouraging nod.He continued, "Because TV dramas are filmed and broadcast at the same time. Also, they have a wide audience so this could be a golden opportunity. I should order the producer to buy the script as soon as possible."My mind was getting weary from working so long. "Sounds great," Still I managed to let out a small smile even though I was exhausted."Are you alright?" He asked softly, brows furrowin
Rose's pov.My eyes widened in surprise when I woke up and watched Lorcan moving around the kitchen. He was wearing an apron and…cooking?!Am I daydreaming? Or is this really happening? The guy who handles huge entrepreneurs is chopping vegetables."Is this a dream?" I asked, announcing my presence to him. "Since when did you become a master chef?"He quickly turned towards me, and a light blush spread across his cheeks. I couldn't believe my eyes, the usually serious and reserved Lorcan is blushing!He has kind of messed up the kitchen but I appreciate that he was at least trying. He looked embarrassed."Well, I overheard the servants say that you had a bad appetite recently, so I thought about making something special for you," He admitted sheepishly, I smiled loving him all over again. "I remembered my mother's recipe that she used to make for me when I was a child. It used to be my favourite, although I couldn't find the exact recipe, I want to try to make it."I took a deep breat
Rose's pov.The stars twinkled in the night sky, holding hands as we walked along the beach's edge. Cold breeze welcomed us by tickling our faces. The view was breathtaking as well as the person walking besides me.Lorcan dragged me away from the venue to steal a moment alone for us. The soft sand under my feet felt cool and soothing. Lorcan was wrapping his arm around my waist holding me close, as if he never wanted to let me go. And it was the same for me.The moment was just so calming and magical. We finally had our wedding not just on paper but with traditional rituals as well. I was trying to control my happiness but I just couldn't. Finally everything was right, there's nothing to be afraid of. It feels like the beginning of a beautiful tomorrow."I never thought I would have a moment like this in my life. Life is really unpredictable," Lorcan said.My lips curved into a big smile, my heart overflowing with affection for this man. "Fate has
Rose's pov.Olivia and Liam were extremely excited when we announced that we would be taking them to Grandma's house."Grammy has a big playroom, mama!" Liam was having a hard time controlling his happiness. Grandma had done so much for them in her house. She loved to spoil them.We have to leave to visit a Resort and see if it would be good for our next shooting location. The owner knows Lorcan and invited us for a two night stay. So, grandma suggested that the kids would stay with her, she was missing them as well."Everything ready?" Lorcan showed up in the doorway."Yeah, Please pick Oli's water bottle from the kitchen counter and we are ready to go," I said, handing him the kid's bag that I packed. Liam ran after him."Come here, love," Picking up Oli, I left the room as well.We arrived at Grandma's house in an hour, and she greeted us with warm hugs and smiles. "Oh, my little monster!""Grammy! We bought you cookies!" Li
Rose's pov.Six years later."Higher, daddy, higher!" Olivia squealed, laughing excitedly.Lorcan chuckled, giving the swing an extra push. "Hold on tight, sweetie."I watched them with a smile as my little girl giggled with delight. It was the best view ever, seeing my baby playing happily with her father.Life had never been busier for both of us, so we get less time to spend with our kids. Our busy schedules keep us occupied. However, we are trying to strike a perfect balance between our professional work and our roles as loving parents to our two angels. Olivia and Liam.And even though we are busy, we made sure to present for every important moment in our children's lives. Whether it was attending Olivia's school events, or cheering Liam to become friends with his classmates since he has anxiety.Both Lorcan and I are extra protective of our kids after I almost lost Liam six years back. The thought still gives me chills. Lorcan,
Lorcan's pov.I rushed Rose to the hospital. She had fainted and bled a lot of blood.Panic and fear creeped my heart and soul and it was heightening with each passing second. I have never felt so much fear, I have never felt so helpless.Everything was going great so why this suddenly!I anxiously waited outside the emergency room while both Rose and my child were fighting with death inside. I paced back and forth, my hands couldn't stop trembling, every minute felt like an eternity.After who knows how long, the red light switched off and the doctor came out."How is Rose, doctor?!" I hurriedly asked, my palms getting sweaty.He sighed with a solemn expression, taking out his face from his reports and looking at me. My heart thumping rapidly, threatening to come out of my throat. "Mr. Lorcan we have examined your wife, and the blow she received was on her stomach," he told me, increasing my heartbeats. "It had caused severe internal
Rose's pov.It's been two weeks since my marriage, and I have never been happier. My life is going great. No, not just great but perfect. The things I didn't get to experience in my first marriage, I'm experiencing all now.And it's because of Lorcan.My wonderful husband is perfect. Including grandma and mom. Grandma has shifted in with us because it could be any day that I would have my baby now.Mom and grandma are taking care of me as my morning swings and random stomach pain have gotten worse. So, they are taking turns to keep me company. Also, they have become really good friends. They would share stories of their own experiences with motherhood, and offer tips and advice. Their presence ease my nerves when Lorcan is not around, making me feel more prepared for the journey of being a mother.I turned the page of the book I was reading on new parents in the living room when my phone rang, and saw Lorcan's name on the screen. I excitedly picked
Rose's pov.Amidst the chaos, I prepared for the most important day of my life.My wedding day.As much as it sounds magical, I was shivering from the nervousness. I still couldn't believe it was finally happening. I'm marrying Lorcan, the love of my life.It was a destination wedding. We arrived here in a coastal town two days ago. And I'm just enjoying its sandy shores and tall palm trees that swayed in the ocean breeze.The venue was a stunning beachfront resort, decorated with delicate white drapes swaying in the wind and fragrant flowers in shades of pink and lavender gracing every corner. The ceremony area was set with an elegant wooden arch entwined with fresh flowers.I was waiting inside my bridal suite. I was surrounded by my mother and grandmother. I was wearing the gown Lorcan selected for me. And he had complimented me so much that I was feeling confident."You look so pretty, baby," Mom smiled with wet eyes. I couldn't b
Lorcan's pov.I stepped inside the house. I rushed here on grandma's call. Rose, my beautiful wife is on it again. It's been happening for a few days now. No matter how much I tried to indulge her, she believed that she would not look good in her wedding dress due to her belly."Lorcan, thank god you're here," Grandma met me with her usual warm smile.Giving her a hug, I asked. "Where's Rose?""She was feeling self-conscious again. She's in her room right now."I sighed in worry and made my way to our bedroom. I softly knocked on the door. "Rose, love, it's me. Open the door."No response.I took a deep breath and tried again. "Can I come in...sweetheart?" I called with more tenderness.And finally a choked voice came out. "Y-Yes, come in."Opening the door, I stepped into the room and saw her seated on the edge of the bed, surrounded by so many breathtaking wedding dresses. Her eyes were slightly red, my heart broke to
Rose's pov.I was working to get my mind off Meera when I received a call from the receptionist downstairs. "Hello?""Madam, there's a woman here who insists she's your mother and wants to see you urgently," the receptionist informed hesitantly. "Should I send her to you?"I frowned, unable to believe her. I hadn't seen or spoken to my mother in months. After our relationship soured because of her stubbornness of not leaving my abusive father, I forced myself to leave her own fate. Last time, when she came to meet me, it was to beg me to ask Lorcan to let him know what he did in the press conference.I am worried about what she is doing here today."Please let her in," I instructed her. My chest suddenly tightened. I don't know why after being ignored by her I still feel responsible towards her for all the time she had been there to save me from my father's beatings despite her own past pain.Someone escorted her to my office. My heart pound
Rose's pov.I was on my way to the company when I got a call from grandma. She is so excited from the news that Lorcan and I are getting married. She had already called the designer and wanted me to try on a few dresses.I don't want a grand wedding, a simple one is fine with me. But since both Lorcan and grandma wanted a grand wedding, I guess I can do that for them. They both are very important to me.The car suddenly stopped in front of the company and I carefully got out of the car. I'm only allowed to work for a week after that I'll stay at home until I give birth. Lorcan said he doesn't want to take risks.As I approached the company's entrance, I noticed a figure standing near the entrance. I stilled upon recognising the face.It was Meera. But what is she doing here? Lorcan said she won't ever come back as he warned her strictly not to interfere in our life. He even fired her from the company, so what does she want now?However, I de
