Rosalind
I looked down on my lap and fumbled with my fingers nervously. We were now inside of the deluxe room, and Alpha Nathan was looking at me with those sticky eyes of his. If I had the chance, then I'd want to gouge them out of his head.
Alright. Maybe that sounded way too graphic.
I wanted to cover my body with the blanket on the bed, but I highly doubt that it would stop him from his perversion. Guys like him surely have no boundaries.
He wasn’t saying anything. He was just creepily staring at me while drinking from a glass of whiskey. I cringed when I saw him lick and bite his lips while looking at my body.
“What’s your name?” he asked.
“Rosa—Rosie,” I said. Phew. I almost told him my real name!
“And how old are you, Rosie?” he asked, leaning his elbows on his lap.
“23,”
Trigger Warning! Sexual coercion is included in this chapter.RosalindI groaned in disgust when he trailed wet kisses down my neck. At one point, he even bit the delicate skin, causing pain to shoot up through my body. He started grinding his clothed member on my thigh, and I wanted to puke on the spot.“Sir, stop it,” I begged him.He moaned. “That’s right. Beg even more.”I closed my eyes and prayed to whoever was listening to help me end this suffering. I resisted every touch and kiss of his, but my stamina was quickly weakening. I even attempted to kick his family jewels, but he was able to stop my knee before it could make contact with his crotch.I became even more desperate when he started removing his underwear—his member coming into view. I closed my eyes and turned my head away to spare myself from the view.What the fuck! It looks like a poisonous mushroom!
RosalindThe three of us stared at the small bed in the middle of the room. It was a twin bed with a thin mattress. The duvet also looked pretty worn-out and the pillows looked like they were made from scratch. I highly doubt that all of us are going to fit in this bed.We didn’t have any choice but to take what was offered to us because we couldn’t afford to wander around the streets and get caught by Alpha Nathan’s goons, or worse, the police. To add to that, I was basically dressed in nothing but underwear and a jacket.While looking at the bed, Alpha Nathan, who Sebastian carelessly plopped down on the floor suddenly groaned in pain. Unconsciously, I went behind Axel to cover myself from the disgusting Alpha on the floor.The things that he did to me a while ago still lingered in my mind. I would never want to go through something like that again.Sebastian groaned. “Oh right. He's still here. Where should we k
AxelI don’t know what came into my mind when I invited Rosalind out to the Bloom Festival. Maybe it’s because she looked so wistful while looking at the city’s night view, or maybe it's just because the guilt of leaving her with Alpha Nathan was eating me alive.I still can’t forget how excited she looked when I asked her to come down with me. She tried gauging my reaction, whether I was joking or not, and when she realized that I wasn’t, she scrambled to get dressed and practically flew out of the room.Now, we were strolling through the heart of the city—where the Bloom Festival is taking place. She walked ahead of me, looking like a kid in a candy store. She wasn’t even paying attention to her surroundings anymore. She was about to bump into a fruit stand, but I was able to pull her away before an accident could happen.I held onto the small of her back and led her out of the fruit stand&rsqu
RosalindI don’t know how long I’ve been wandering around this place, but I don’t care. Being in this place, I felt the feeling that I have long been craving while being in the palace—freedom.As a young princess, I used to visit the cities that surrounded our kingdom with my mother. I don’t remember much, but I remember always going to an orphanage to play with kids my age. My mother was well-known around this area. She loved to get in touch with the people.As I grew older, I lost touch with the people and started being surrounded by the same stoic faces, same polished infrastructures, and same uptight rules. That’s when I started wanting to become the queen—so that I could change the rules. Because for me, being a princess isn’t being a perfect girl stuck in a palace. Being a princess is to keep in touch with people and give them the help that they need.I smiled nostalgically when I saw
RosalindI didn’t know how to respond, so I turned to Axel for help. I was hoping that he would say something, but like me, he said nothing.“Boss! It’s time for us to take our positions. The flower’s going to bloom in a bit.”It was a good thing that another photographer called the old man’s attention, so we didn’t have to answer his question anymore.He glanced back at us and pointed towards an empty bench near the flower.“Go and sit there while waiting for the flower to bloom.”I looked a the chains that surrounded that particular area, and it looked like it was only for VIP’s.“Can we sit there?” I warily asked.The old man smiled. “Don’t worry. Just tell them that Mr. Stanley allowed you to be there.”My eyes widened in surprise. Mr. Stanley? Isn’t that...?“See you later,” he i
Rosalind“I think I’m starting to like you.”When I realized what I had just said, my eyes widened in surprise. I pursed my lips together and wished that I could just take back the words that spilled out of my mouth.Shit. I shouldn't have said that.I dreaded Axel’s reaction. He slowly turned his head to me, and I couldn’t guess what emotion his face held.I still remember the day when he told me that we shouldn’t fall in love with each other. I’m a hundred percent sure that he’s not going to like what I just said.It felt like the world slowed down as I waited for him to speak out about what he thought.He leaned in closer to me and furrowed his eyebrows. “What did you say? I didn’t hear anything because of the crowd.”I let out a breath that I didn’t even know I was holding when I heard what he said.Alright. So he didn
RosalindI froze in my spot as I looked at her cunning smirk. I quickly got back on track, though. I didn’t want her to think that I went somewhere last night.“What do you mean? I was just here,” I said innocently.Her smirk slowly transformed into a scowl, and I saw her tighten her hold onto my sheets, wrinkling the white cloth.“Tell me the truth while I’m still acting nice. Where did you go last night?”I sighed and still continued on with my act. “I told you, mom. I didn’t go anywhere last night.”She scoffed. “So, now I’m your mom when you’ve done something wrong.”I held in the urge to roll my eyes. My parents usually wouldn’t care about my well-being. If I had gone missing for a couple of days, they probably would not have noticed until they saw my face plastered all over the media. What makes this situation different?
AxelRosalind went to her room while I went to an abandoned attic in the palace. This is where I placed all of my weapons in case I needed to use them. I took the entire backpack of weapons and made sure to close the attic before leaving.Before going back to the stable, I wanted to check up on Rosalind to see if she was already resting, so I took a longer route just to visit her room.When I got there, I didn’t expect another person to be in Rosalind’s room. I narrowed my eyes to get a closer look and saw that it was Desdemona, Rosalind’s mother.Thinking that I should just leave the mother-and-daughter pair all alone, I quietly went on my way. However, I suddenly heard them arguing, leading me to go back to my hiding spot.As I listened to their argument, I couldn’t help but wonder what their real relationship was. I feel like I shouldn’t be listening in on their conversation, but my curiosity got t
