Rosalia

I watched as Maria closes her eyes, sleep finally claiming her after I had read bedtime stories to her. She had awakened while I was carrying her to her room from the living room and had demanded I read to her. I had thought she slept when I finished reading to her so I went to have a bath and changed into my sleep wear but when I came back, I realised she was waiting for me before sleeping. Memories or not, I love her already. I mean, anyone would, she's so precious.

My mind suddenly wandered to Damien, how he must have been taking care of her these years despite being crazy busy as he was. I heard a sound, my eyes went to the door and saw him leaning outside the room.

My eyes widened. 'Oh my goodness!' Am I interfering in his bond with Maria? Reading to her was the only time he had been able to bond with her because of his work and now I've snatched that from him. I wonder how he felt about it.

I was attempting to leave the bed when he started walking towards me. "You sh

    Rosalia Nana? He called me Nana? That voice and that name stirred something deep within me. Something I could not place my hands on but I knew without a shadow of doubt that this giant of a man right here, was my brother. I don't know how I knew but I just knew it. So I just "Br-Brother?" His eyes widened a fraction before it lifted into a smile. "Even without your memories, you know who I am? I'm flattered" His voice was very familiar. It was like something I had heard a long time ago from a faraway place. Somewhere that felt like home. "I just took a guess since we look alike" He nodded then I asked what was baffling me "If you are my brother, why do you need to sneak around to meet me? Why didn't you find me all these while?" If he knew who I was and where i was, why didn't he come to me?He sighed "Nana, this isn't as simple as you think it is. Chester-" He took a deep breath like saying the name had pained him. "Chester isn't dead yet and until I find him and make him pay fo

    Rosalia Finally, I was going to pack some of my stuff in my old apartment after almost two months of leaving there. After I had run off from his room last night, Damien had followed and came to sleep with us in Maria's room and this morning when he was leaving for work, I had asked if I could go to my old apartment. Surprisingly he agreed and that too without me trying to convince him. I had prepared for an argument in order to get him to agree but seeing him giving me an easy pass, I was disappointed. He had been behaving strangely this morning. "Do you have anywhere else you'll like to go while we drop by the old place?" Rob asked, he was sitting in the shotgun and now facing me. I glanced at him then wondered if there was any place I could visit but I came up with nothing. I just want to go back home to accompany Maria. "No" I then turned my attention back outside the window. "Figures, you never had a hobby when you were living outside, just going to work and back home. You d

    Rosalia I watched quietly, trying not to grimace as my husband removed the dressing on his wound and remade it. He was so expert at it that it was a clear indication he gets hurt often and does the dressing himself. I'm not sure that's a good thing. He was very stubborn. I knew he was stubborn but I hadn't realised it until today when I had to fight him not to go to work or whatever he does is called but he refused to listen. He went after giving me a bullcrap of a story then now he returned with his injury bleeding. Serves him right. Deciding not to focus on the injury, I watched his exposed upper body as it flexed with his actions of wrapping the bandage around his stomach. He was super ripped but that was now covered by the bandage unfortunately. I had snuck a glance at his muscular frame many times when he wasn't looking and I had always controlled myself not to droll. I already knew I was going to love feeling his body with my hands and maybe mouth when he let me. Perhaps I c

    Damien "No princess, she was playing with me" I clarified to the almost startled girl. But even with my soft tone, she didn't seem to believe me with the way she looked between us but she nodded eventually. Smart girl!Serena snorted which made me grin, then she rolled her eyes. "Come here baby, let me carry you up, your daddy is hurt so he can't carry you for long" She said to Maria, already reaching out for her. I moved from her reach. The injury wasn't so severe that I couldn't carry Maria who weighed literally nothing. But Serena behaves like I've been run over by a truck and now fragile. "I can manage on my own" She frowned but I didn't mind her as I started climbing the stairs. I heard her footsteps coming after me. "Your injury is still healing, you should avoid heavy weight" I couldn't resist laughing at her words. "I promise, I'm fine. The injury is nothing and I can even carry you to show that I'm very much stronger than you thought. You are just being paranoid" I glanc

    Damien I wanted to kill someone. To be more exact, I want to kill this bastard in front of me who had decided to torment me for his amusement. "You should be happy to see me, you know?" I rolled my eyes. 'Happy, my foot!' "What are you doing here?" I asked him with a frown. Jamie might be my best friend and unfortunately my brother in law but he was very annoying when he chose to be. Like now. When he has nothing to do. The idiot wiggles his brows "To keep you company until the girls are back, of course" He threw his hand at the back of the couch and touched my shoulders. I moved away from him with a glare. "Don't touch me" His shit-eating grin was still present on his face. "I heard your stomach got excavated a few days ago, so how is it? Do we need to fill it up with blood or what?" I knew there was a reason he came here other than the bullshit he had been spewing since he got here almost a decade ago. It's been less than twenty minutes but it might as well have been a decade

    Rosalia Mia was in one corner of the Children section with her kids who seemed to have bought tons of children play things already. She looked up as I approached her "Are you done?" She asks. I glanced down at Maria who was looking around but she didn't seem interested in anything else. "I think so, are you done?" I really wish we could call off the whole shopping thing and go back home. I was already feeling uneasy with the way things were. Whoever was watching me must be skilled enough for the bodyguards not to have noticed him and I don't want to be around such a person for long. Mia looked down at her kids "We should be done here, let's go to the women's section to shop for some night dresses. I noticed all you have are pajamas, you need sleep wear too. You know those silky ones" She finished with a wink. But she was right, I needed them. "Let's not forget clothes you can wear at home, you've been stealing my brother's clothes all these while, you need yours too" That would
