“For a date.” Killian replied with ease.

Rosa found herself shaking. She felt her world stoped listening to him.

She can't believe what she heard just now.

Is it true?

‘da-date!’ Rosa stuttered in her thoughts.

“Sir, your orders please!” Rosa’s chains of thoughts broke as she instantly looked down at her lap. Her lashes flickered, gulping down her saliva.

Thinking ‘Is she dreaming?’

Killian’s sharp gaze instantly looked away before grabbing the menu card. But Rosa’s fist tightens, she can’t believe she’s in date! with Mr. Salvatore!

After taking the order, Mia left the place. Rosa’s fingers crossed with one another as a nervous feeling was growing inside her.

Meanwhile, Killian’s dark yet creepy gaze found her silent. He knows! A silent chuckle escaped from his delicate lips as he took it his phone and scrolled through It.

Rosa’s heartbeat keep rising and she bit her lips, gulping in nervousness. Somehow she’s feeling relaxed!

Fighting with her nerves, she slowly stared up and her lavender shadowed lens found the most attractive scene ahead. Her body felt shivers, looking at him through her curious eyes.

His sharp jawline! Pierced Eyebrows! Silk like hairs! and the dark aura! She fears! Her eyes felt nothing but attracted!

Her long lashes blinked looking at him, who is now busy on his phone, knowing that the curious little girl is staring at him!

The demon inside him, growled!

“Like this, focus on your study!”

Killian’s sudden words causes Rosa to flinch and Instantly focused on her lap.

She realized he was looking at the phone screen! How could he notice her stare?

She sat there quietly persuading her lips! The demon inside him, roared at her submissive behaviours. He clearly knows how scared she is! The surrounding turned silent as Killian gazed at her through his blueish orbs.

In no moment, Mia and some other servants came with lots of foods before placing them on the table securely, bowing before leaving the place.

The smells of various delicious dishes, spread around the air but still, Rosa stayed quiet like a statue, still playing with her small fingers.

Fvck!

Someone is watching her cute actions, of course it's Him!

“Are you lost?” his deep raspy vocal reach her earbuds as she blinked her eyes cutely before tugging her head up but tried to avoid his gaze.

She slowly moved her head as No. “Wanna go back home?” she softly nodded, “Then finish it.”

-----

Rosa’s steps froze on its spot when she saw Killian standing straight in front of a black car and a Man in driver suit came out of it. She tried her best to control her heartbeat, but it’s out of control.

His presence is so attractive that she can’t control her emotions. No doubt, she loves him the most.

Does he care?

She blinked multiple time, stepping back when his large frame reach near her. Her knees trembled at his presence.

A fresh smell hits her nostrils as she slowly looks up.

Her breath turned uneven staring at his eyes from down. Her eyes glossed with sparkles, and heart filled with love!

“He’ll drive you home.” Killian coldly uttered as lil Rosa looked here and there except him.

She clearly feeling helpless not able to control her heartbeats. Her soft doe eyes softened looking at his clothed chest.

“It’s getting late!” he rasped and this time Rosa came back to her sense.

She slowly tilted her head side to side in denial staring at his chest. His eyes darkened at her actions.

His remained silent looking at her state. She slowly tried to look up but her thumping heart didn't let her.

“I can g-go alone.” she softly murmured not wanting to go with any Driver as she's scared.

“Did I allow?” his vocal came out vexed, sounding rude and Rosa's fingers trembled.

Fighting with her beating heart, she shook her head. She can’t disobey him. What if ... He thinks her as a bad girl?

Gazing at her timid state, he internally fumed but stayed silent.

Rosa took her bottom lip into her mouth, chewing it in nervousness. Killian poked his cheek with tongue and looked away.

Killian tugged his hands into his pocket before taking out a platinum card, shining like a star. He again saw her playing with fingers. So childish!

“Here ..” Killian stated before forwarding the card. Rosa blinked her eyes few times before slowly looking above her head.

The lavender shade met the bluish cornea, feeling a unknown attraction but she tried to be normal.

She parted her lips to say something but it trembled, preventing her from saying anything.

“You should try on it.” Rosa gulped not understanding anything but his cold deepest voice attracted her soul.

Rosa’s eyes scanned on the card. ‘why it’s shining so much?’ she thought looking at the card.

“What’s that?” she asked with curiosity. Her vocals came out soft and low.

Rosa continued to look at the card with big curious eyes, trying to process, what's the thing in his hand.

“So, are you blind now?” he slipped out those words while she instantly shook her head looking at his chest as she reaches till his chest.

Her both lens played hide and seek around while he gazed at her with his emotionless numb eyes. The driver behind, stood there looking at his boss’s back.

The girl Infront him is scared.

Scared of being hated by him.

Rosa shook off her thoughts and extended her both small hands at the card nervously. She felt her hands shivering.

She slowly hold on the card with her quivered hands before looking at it curiously. He loosened his soft grip before tugging those vein popped hands into the pocket. Fvck.

Her heartbeat increased once again looking at the card. She looked up with a lil smile but it fade away when he moved away from her front view.

“He’ll drop you home.” he spoke as Rosa looked at the driver, who’s standing beside the black car with his bowed head.

Her lashes blinked, looking at the driver’s direction with a timid eyes. She probably don’t wanna go with any stranger! also a stranger man.

The cold air brushed against her delicate skin causing her to feel goosebumps and her face turned more milky and pale. The thin strap of dress doesn't help but causes her to feel cold.

His sharp active gaze caught her shivering feature.

“It’s cold here .. get in the car.” he sternly uttered but Rosa shook her head softly in denial.

“I can go alone.” she said before heading up higher to met with his eyes that now shading, darker.

She lowered her eyes watching his dark eyes.

She gasped all of a sudden feeling a rush of coldness touching her skin. She sealed her mouth not wanting to be awkward in his eyes.

“Actually-” before she can complete her words, he declared to the driver “You can leave!” the driver bowed in respect before getting in the car and driving away.

Rosa looked at the disappearing car before locking her eyes on the ground, “I might go now-” she couldn’t say further as his deep vocal interrupted.

“Come with me!” he spoke before walking back, Rosa stared at his back not understanding why he told her to go with Him.

She slowly stretched her feet before stepping further in order to follow him. And she stopped on her track watching him going near another car before opening the door of passenger seat.

Rosa’s steps halted right there, looking further with her round eyes.

She clutched her dress in a soft grip, looking at his tall monstrous figure from a good distance.

The wind turned more icy as the time passed. She looked at him through her adorable stare, pressing her lips together, looking at his direction with a innocious look, just like she is!

Killian Salvatore turned back just to witness her looking at him with her doe curious stare.

“C’mon quick!” Killian rasped, as she couldn’t understand what to do but follow him?

Rosa blinked multiple time, but the cold air kept sending shockwaves to her whole body.

Rosa slowly stepped further like a obedient girl. After reaching near, she pulled her head up. “I hope, you aren’t deaf! If not then get in!” he rudely spoke, leering his dark gaze on her.

She again took some small steps with her body shivering due to cold air and nervousness at the same time.

She looks aside to see some of people leaving the restaurant. It’s really getting late! Reaching Infront him, she lowered her head as he watched her playing with fingers.

Gulping down, she looked up but no sooner had her eyes met him, she looked down.

“I can go alone.” she tried to speak.

“And I said get in?!” his deep vocal came out, snatching her soul away at the deep tone.

Finding no other way, she looked up at him with her innocious stare. His eyebrows gestured her inducing her to feel totally insane from heart.

----

Rosa was still looking down since the time she got up in the car. She don’t have the minimum courage to move or say. The card given by him was still into her small clutch that laying on her lap!

Time passed with her statued figure sitting quietly, and soon the car skipped on its track causing her flinch.

Flickering her lashes, Rosa stared outside the window to see her destination.

Killian’s serene gaze focused on the rare view mirror silently until he sensed the slow little movement beside him. Rosa slowly opened the seatbelt with her trembling hands. He focused straight on the empty road, resting his palm on the steering.

Rosa clutched the door knob before twisting it but her heartbeat increased when she couldn't open it. Her face tensed up, trying again with her little strength.

Killian sensed the situation before pressing the button near the steering. An unknown satisfaction filled his interval, acknowledging the fear in the air.

With a small twist, the door gapped away causing her to feel relieved.

Fear!

Fear!

And

Only Fear!

Rosa stepped out of the car, but before she could turn around, the engine sound hit her earbuds and within a second, the car disappeared from her sight. She blinked her eyes twice, totally puzzled.

‘was he in a hurry?’

‘I didn't thank him.’

‘what he meant by date?’

‘He left without saying anything.’

She thought, pouting on her own before turning back to face the house in front of her. She walked near the door and slightly pushed with negative hope. She sighed in relief as the door was opened.

Rosa peeked inside but saw no one. She stepped her feet inside, before closing the door slowly without making any noise.

Thank God! The light is still on or else she would be scared of the dark!

Rosa opened her shoe, turning back before walking further with her calm heart not until she froze hearing the voice she’s scared of.

“Where were you?” the manly voice asked in a rude tone.

The silence was broken only by the soft bubbling of noodles on the stove. Her hair was tied up in a messy bun. A few strands slipped down to brush her cheeks, then she leaned forward to check the pot.“It’s done.” Rosa muttered to herself while turning off the stove before filling her bowl with steaming ramyeon. The scent rose like comfort she didn’t quite feel.Carrying the steaming bowl to the small living room, Rosa sat down on the couch. She set the noodles beside a pile of scattered books, tucked a few stray strands of hair behind her ear before folding her legs beneath her.When the food had cooled a little, Rosa set the bowl on her lap and began to eat. The room was silent except for the soft clink of chopsticks.Rosa blew gently on the noodles. Her lips brushed the chopsticks as she t

The long sword scraped the floor as he approached the three men kneeling, bound with ropes.They trembled before him. One dared to speak. His voice quivered, “King, please let us go. We’ve done nothing. We have no enmity with you, my lord, please, th-there are some misunderstandings.”Killian tilted his head slightly. His eyes were blank and emotionless. To him, they were nothing more than rats. The sword lifted, drawing sharp gasps from the men.“You touched her.” Killian’s voice was quiet. Too quiet.The men exchanged panicked glances. “W-who, my lord? We’re just mere gangsters–”Their leader froze when the cold blade grazed his neck. Killian’s eyes held no rage, no flicker of emotion, only an eerie stillness. That emptiness was far more terrifying than fury.“Remember,” Killian muttered.

They lifelessly moved like those of a corpse.Those sleepless, bloodshot eyes drifted aimlessly across the room–the nightstand, the mirror, the door, the empty bed, everywhere. Only emptiness greeted him.A cool drained breath slipped past his lips.After Killian didn’t know how long he had been standing there, a sharp throb split his temple making him shut his eyes. Days without sleep had taken their toll. He had long forgotten how many nights–perhaps since she left.Finally, he moved through the emptiness.
