Every person inside the room grabbed their guns simultaneously. Ursa cowered in a corner in fear. Her anger had surfaced through after being hit by Kingsley, but she soon realised that she had made a mistake.“Tell me this, Ursa. If you decided to give me Rose, why did you send goons to hurt her? You thought hurting my bride would put you in a position of power. You wanted to show me my place? You know what people will say when they hear that Kingsley could not even protect his bride before the wedding. If you thought of her as your daughter, why send people to hurt her? Who knows you wanted to kill her. You wanted that, right? Humiliate Dia Lucrii?” growled Kingsley.“Wh…at?? What are you talking about? Rose was attacked by goons? Is that why her foot was injured?” asked Ursa, shocked to her core. She really had no idea what Kingsley was talking about.Kingsley glanced at Emerson, and Emerson, too, stared back at him in shock. Ursa’s stunned face showed that she really had no idea abo
Kingsley looked at every guest moving towards the exit gate for the reception. He signalled Deep, and he came running. He stood before Rose and gulped. Rose, too, looked at him, confused. She had no idea what he wanted.“Um… may I?” asked Deep.“May you, what?” asked Rose, extremely confused. Her feet automatically took a step back.Deep glanced at Kingsley and, after a deep sigh, he replied, “May I carry you to your car? You cannot walk on your injured foot.”“Excuse me!!” shouted Rose. She thought she had heard him wrong. “You want to what?” She took another step backwards and bumped into a muscular wall. She jerked her head to see who was standing behind her. Before she could see, a firm hand planted on her waist. She gasped, and somehow she knew that touch. She blinked her eyes and saw that she was right; Kingsley stood behind her.“You don’t want anyone else to touch you, wifey?” Kingsley smirked.“What??” mumbled Rose. Her brain was melted for sure by now. She knew her skull was
“I pronounce you husband and wife. Please sign the marriage certificate,” announced the officiant.Kingsley looked at Fiona, and she brought two copies of the licence. A white podium emerged from the floor, and Fiona placed the papers on them. The officiant signalled Rose and Kingsley to move near the podium to sign.“What? How… how can I sign the papers? It will have Vanessa’s name. What am I going to do? But he knows. He knows that I am not Vanessa. Wait! Did he know when he saw me outside the venue? Did he know he was going to marry me, not Vanessa? I cannot think about that now. I have to think about how to avoid signing the papers. If I sign on behalf of Vanessa, first, the marriage would be void and second, I will be committing fraud. I could go to jail. Shit! Shit! What should I do?” Rose kept chewing her lower lip in stress.Kingsley signed without any qualms. He stepped back and presented the pen to Rose. She hesitated. But now everyone has seen her face. She could hear peopl
Rose’s phone kept ringing, but she didn’t move to touch it. Also, Kingsley had her in his arms, not giving her even an inch of space to move.“Good! It’s a good thing. But if he rises from the dead, tell me, I will make sure he remains dead,” smirked Kingsley. Rose gulped in fear. How could someone talk about killing someone so casually? But then she saw him shooting someone without even flinching.“Would you let me go? Everyone’s watching!” said Rose.“Let them. Are you ashamed of me, would-be-wife?” asked Kingsley.“I don’t want you to feel like I am a burden,” said Rose.Kingsley gritted his teeth. Who the hell called her a burden? He was going to kill that person. “What kind of husband will I be if I can’t help my wife in pain?”Rose’s heart skipped a beat. “Wait! He wants to care for Vanessa? He wants to be a good husband? What is going on in his mind? He is so confusing. How can he hurt Dad and then show concern for Vanessa? Does he really love her? Did he hurt Dad because Ursa d
Kingsley stood at the altar waiting for Rose to enter. Emerson and the other men stood near him as his groomsmen. Fiona and Yvette were standing in the position of bridesmaids along with a few more women. His heart was beating faster than the speed of light. He was finally going to marry Rose. He was finally going to get close to Rose. She was coming into his family, which had been a lifelong dream of both families. If only Willow and Lucas could witness that.The door opened, and Rose started walking with Seth. Kingsley’s eyes widened for a second in shock, but he realised that Seth was a better option than Ursa. At least Seth loved Rose, unlike Ursa, who always bullied her and had forced her into this marriage. His face relaxed, but again his brows furrowed when he saw her walking in pain.Everyone heard what Seth said. A few people gulped as they knew whose wedding this was, and touching the bride of the godfather was a punishable offence. Only Kingsley knew that Seth was just tryin
“What the hell is taking so long? Are you really trying to get us all killed, you bloody Ros…?” A voice echoed from outside the bridal room. The angry voice kept getting closer. Rose knew that voice. She clearly heard the difference between that voice and the voices of people inside her room. They all were polite and worried even though they belonged to a mafia group. Yet the voice shrieking at her was supposed to be from a rich, sophisticated, cultured lady, but she was howling like a bad-tempered pig.Ursa appeared before everyone, looking furious. The moment she saw Emerson and Fiona, her mouth automatically shut up. She immediately started smiling, and her voice softened. “Oh, sweetie! What is taking so much time?” She didn’t care about Rose, never had, so she didn’t see the bandage around her palm or the two pairs of shoes placed near her feet.“Oh, my dear daughter! Everyone is waiting for the bridal entry. Let’s go! Why are you guys here? It’s our job to bring the bride, not you
The moment Rose heard the signal bell of the bakery, a flicker of hope ran across her face. Did God hear her pleas? Did God send Piers to save her, protect her? And then a scary thought came to her mind. What if Piers came in, and the man standing before him would hurt him too?The man was pushing
Kingsley’s eyes flickered, and he opened them. He grabbed Rose’s hand and again said, “Rose!” and finally lost his consciousness.“No, no, please, please, wake up! Wake up!” sobbed Rose. But she made sure that the pressure on Kingsley’s wound was tight. She was not letting even a drop fall from the
The moment Kingsley was at the back of the bakery, he heard the bell of the door. He knew someone had entered the shop. He had to act fast. He knew he must not die. He had to live. He had to find the love of his life. He had to get rid of his mortal enemy. He had to live for his people.He tilted h
“Get out, King! Now! I will hold him off! Go!” shouted Emerson at the top of his lungs as all the bang-bang of the guns was deafening. Emerson and other bodyguards had made a wall right before Kingsley to hide him from the hail of bullets. The table and chairs had bullet holes in them. The metal ta
