Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 131. Else I will eat you
Roseline's POVBefore I could say anything to him or stop him, he turned his attention away from me."You all can take the rest of the day off," he announced with an air of generosity that seemed to surprise the helper."Really, sir?" the man stammered in disbelief.Vincenzo just nodded. He couldn't contain his excitement and rushed to the kitchen to tell everyone about it. In no time, the staff gathered their belongings, chatting excitedly amongst themselves, and began to exit the mansion, leaving me and Vincenzo alone and, of course, Rose, who probably was sleeping in her room."Now that we have the place to ourselves," he began, his tone playfully reminiscent of our earlier conversation, "and you brought me here with the promise of ensuring I don't miss meals. So, the ball is in your court now.""What? What would you like to eat?" I asked him. "You already know what I like," he said instead of answering my question. "Lasagna?" I asked.He nodded and his face told me that he was
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 132. Devouring her
Roseline's POV"Don't move" Threatening me, he stood in between my knees and concentrated on his work of putting a bandage on my nonexistent wound. I was watching him intently while he was doing his work and when he was done, he placed a small kiss on the top of my finger. "Now it will heal faster," I joked. "What are you? 13?" He asked in a serious tone. "Do I look like 13 to you?" I asked him. His eyes moved down my body and I could see a flash of lust passing through them, His thumbs, which were resting on my waist, started stroking me there. "No," he repliedAnd before I could retaliate, his lips crashed on mine. The moment froze for me and the moment his lips touched mine, I blossomed like a flower. Our lips melted with each other as if they were meant to be there. I forgot everything around me, and the only focus that remained was him. It ignited a rush of emotions that left me spellbound. We have kissed before but what made the kiss extra special was that this could be
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 133. Sweet and salty
The romance is going to be a bit Nasty in this chapter. You have been warned 😅) Roseline's POV As I came out in the hall, I spotted Vincenzo lost in his own thoughts. I thought that he must be busy with his phone but I was surprised to find him waiting for me. As the aroma of the dish reached him, he turned his head. He must have smelled the food; his senses are sharp. I walked up to him and put the freshly cooked lasagna in front of him.I chose to sit at an arm's length from him, wanting to keep my distance. I won't be able to help myself if he starts his ministrations again. But before I knew it, he grabbed my wrist, surprised me, and pulled me towards himself, which landed me directly on his lap. "What?" I couldn't believe it and before I could ask him what exactly he was doing, he commanded me. "Feed me,""What are you? 2?" I asked in the same tone which he used to ask me when he was bandaging my finger and I passed a comment on him kissing my finger. "Not exactly!" He re
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 134. The match
Roseline's POVToday is the big day for badminton, the final match where our team's victory rests on me. After making it through all the tryouts, I have earned my spot in the finals. This match is super important because both teams are tied and whoever wins takes it all.Kevin already played his game and his team came out on top. The pressure is on me now. If I mess up, it'll undo all the hard work the whole team put in. I knew how crucial today was, so I took my medications before leaving home. Still, my head feels a bit woozy and I am feeling weak despite having a stomach full of fruits in the morning. Within ten minutes, our match will start and I was pacing back and forth to calm down my jitters when I felt a reassuring hand over my shoulder. "Take it easy," he says, trying to calm me down. "Being all worked up won't help you play your best. Forget about the outcome for now. Focus on giving your all in the game. If you keep worrying about winning or losing, you'll lose your con
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 135. Where is the ring?
Roseline's POVWith blurry vision, I saw the shuttlecock coming to my side and somehow I managed to hit it. My gaze flicked to Vincenzo, who sat within my line of sight. Even from a distance, I could discern the concern etched into his features; most probably he had sensed my uneasiness even from this far away. I could hear the cheers of the audience, which were mainly from my team, as they had all the hope in me. The weight of their hopes bore down upon my shoulders, a reminder that I couldn't falter—not when so much was riding on this pivotal moment.Blinking multiple times, I cleared my vision and for the last time, I looked at Vincenzo before hitting the shuttlecock. The shuttlecock left my racket with a forceful thwack, hurtling towards a distant corner, strategically out of the opponent's reach.She went to hit the shuttlecock but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't reach there and she missed the shot. My strategy worked! Before the host could even announce my victory
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 136. Pray for her
Vincenzo's POV I wasn't surprised when I got the invitation to attend the sports week at the College of Management as a chief guest. I have received it every year but this time I decided to attend because of Roseline. Knowing that she had reached the finals, I decided to attend the event. I wanted to witness her moment of triumph and be there as a source of motivation, a silent supporter cheering her on.I was not like this when I met her but she has changed something in me and all I want is good for her no matter whether I am with her or not. She had managed to kindle a change within me. My priorities had shifted, and my perspective had broadened.When I was ready to attend the match, Rose asked me to spend the day with her but I politely declined her request and went for Roseline. I could see right through her eyes how happy she was when she saw me sitting among the crowd. It filled her with new confidence. For me, she won the moment she gave her best. She has surged with so man
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 137. Changing for her
Vincenzo's POVPray? The doctor has asked me to pray for the speedy recovery of Roseline. But from the day I lost my Rose, I hadn't visited the doors of God because I started believing there was nothing like that. As I came out, I found Kevin outside. "How is she?" He asked me as soon as he saw me coming out of the Emergency Room. "Her condition is critical," I told him. "Brother, if you don't mind, can I ask you a question?" He asked. I gave him a look before tilting my head and asking him to go ahead."Why does she lose consciousness so easily? Is there an underlying medical issue she is dealing with?" His concern for Roseline was evident, and an unexpected pang of jealousy tugged at my emotions.Why does he care so much about her? Why is he always around her? "You need not worry about that. I will look into that," I told him. "That means there is something, and I have a feeling even she might not be aware of it," he pressed on, his words laden with curiosity.Instead of c
Married by Contract, Destined by Fate 138. You are still a devil
Vincenzo's POV After two days, the doctor finally deemed Roseline well enough to be discharged. Her situation is very serious and I have to tell the doctor that she doesn't have any siblings so he recommended that we register at a bone marrow registry, indicating that it could potentially be a lifeline in her situation. Since then, I have been waiting for the good news that we have found a suitable donor. I have brought her back home and have appointed two nurses to provide round-the-clock care. Though the doctor said that she is fine for now, I cannot take any risk. Certain matters required my attention, and in my absence, I couldn't entrust them to anyone else. Roseline's friends visited her at the hospital during her stay, though I couldn't help but notice Liam's less-than-pleased expression. It was evident that he held some resentment, perhaps thinking that I was responsible for her condition. "Vincenzo, you should head to work now," Roseline's voice interrupted my thoughts.
