Roseline's POVI was standing in front of my small wooden house, engulfed in merciless flames.Smoke billows from shattered windows, obscuring my view and making it difficult for me to scream. Fear clenches my heart as I call out for my parents, and in reverting, I could hear nothing else but their agonizing screams.I know they are burning inside and I wanted to help them, to rescue them but I was held back by two strong arms who are behind this fire.I wiggled, screamed, thrashed, and did everything in my power to make myself free from his clutches, but nothing worked.I could see my parents hugging each other, barely visible amidst the engulfing blaze."Let me go!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.I just wanted to run to my parents to save them or to get myself burned along with them, as I don't have anyone else in this world than them. And I can't stay without them; they are my life, my everything."No! Rose, no! Don't come here," I heard my mother shouting in between her painfu

Roseline's POVAs his hand reached up, his knuckles tenderly grazing my cheek, a surge of discomfort washed over me. His intense gaze fixated on my lips, leaving no room for doubt about his intentions. The air became charged with an unsettling tension as I found myself confronted with a moment that demanded quick action from my side.Going with my impulse, just as his lips were about to meet mine, I forcefully pushed him back and delivered a well-aimed kick that sent him sprawling to the floor.Laughter bubbled up within me, and no matter how hard I tried to stifle it, I couldn't control the mirth. Even the anticipation of the consequences couldn't suppress my amusement. The room echoed with my laughter, and when I finally managed to calm down a bit, I expected an outburst of anger from him. But, as I glanced down, I saw him staring at me in sheer awe, his voice held captive by astonishment.I blinked and immediately ceased laughing."You seem in a good mood today."I thought that he

Vincenzo's POVIt's been two weeks since I have been married by law. Every morning I wake up early and find myself sleeping over her and every time I have to change our position so that she doesn't take me wrong. It has now become my habit to sleep on her and I didn't even come to know about it. Today was Sunday, and I had the luxury of working from home. My study was conveniently connected to the bedroom, allowing me to have a clear view of the outside world while remaining secluded.After a satisfying lunch, I returned to my study to continue my work. I was deeply engrossed in my tasks until she entered my field of vision.There she was, spreading out her chart on the floor, right in the line of sight from my study. I couldn't help but be distracted by the sight. Was she seriously planning to work on the floor, right in front of my eyes?But why should I care? She could do the hell she wants. Engrossed in my work, I tried to focus, but she continued to move about, seemingly unaw

Roseline's POV And in that fleeting moment, time stood still as his lips crashed into mine. My body froze, overwhelmed by the unexpected sensation. It was my first kiss, and I never imagined it would be like this. The touch of his lips against mine wasn't bad but it was unexpected and came as a surprise to me because it was from the person from whom I least expected it. I thought that he loved someone else so he was not going to get intimate with me. But the way his heart was beating beneath my palm told a different story. It seems like he wanted more than just a kiss and he isn't going to stop without claiming everything he wants. He stayed like that for a minute, as if the world stopped for him as well. He wasn't breathing; he wasn't moving, just like me; the only sound we could hear was our thumping hearts that were beating in the same rhythm. After a minute, which felt like an eternity, his face moved a little back, only for his tongue to make a space in between his lips

Roseline's POVSince that day he hasn't come close to me. Most of the time he ignores me and barely talks. Whenever he is home he spend his time in his study while I stays in the room. It is not like I am complaining. It is better if he stays away from me as much as possible. Suddenly I heard the honk of his car. It was the 5th of evening and he generally returns between 8 and 9. What made him come so early today? My confusion was soon cleared when within a few minutes he entered the room and all of a sudden ordered me to get ready. "Get ready, for what?" I asked him. "We are going to a party" he told me coldly. "Party? But why?" "Don't ask me too many questions. Just do as I am saying" he said coldly. "Do you think of me as your puppet who would behave the way you want?" I asked him a little agitated by his behaviour. What does he think about himself? He can't treat me according to his mood. He sighed and turned to face me. "Dear Wifey, I have got a invitation of the party
