Rose was like the busiest bee around the clinic that day. She didn’t want to face Daniel much if possible. She wasn’t sure she could act calmly around him. She wasn’t sure she would be able to remain civil enough to talk to him about what she now knew.

Sometime in the afternoon, there was a smartly clad man that came, claiming he had sprained his ankle… But she had every reason to believe he wasn’t truthful.

Heavens, she hated people who faked injuries with passion, whether it was to get attention or strong painkillers and codein. Not only did it make her job more difficult and stressful than it had to be, but it also could potentially prevent someone in a dire condition from getting adequate treatment in time.

She shot the man a discreet look in between two patients, her eyes slightly narrowed though she tried not to show any animosity. Then, Daniel, whom she had been helping with another patient — an agitated patient in need of sedation — called for the next patient.

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   70. Not Meant For You

    Roman was in the basement. He had left Rose sleeping, as he just couldn’t wait to deal with Scarlett. He looked at the woman, disgust evident in his eyes. To think she had once been a dear friend, he couldn’t believe he had never seen this side of her. Her eyes were closed, and she breathed loudly, as if she were trying hard not to sob. Every few seconds, she twitched involuntarily. Her once fair skin was marred black and blue. His men knew better than to touch a woman he considered his enemy. So, while they had not raped her, they had tortured her enough to make her lose her composure, but not enough to render her insane – much less kill her. They truly understood the assignment.“Open your eyes,” he drawled dispassionately. She did so eagerly. Her wide eyes, which were once innocent, made him want to break something. How dare she try to kill Rose, in his own base no less? “Roman, please,” she began, panting, her eyes zeroing on his gloves hands, and she twitched again. “I didn’

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   69. Treasure Hunt

    Rose watched with abject admiration – despite everything going wrong with her at that moment – how Roman kept kicking the kitchen door with fervor… She wanted to hug him for following her himself. There was so much she wanted to tell him, but sadly couldn’t. Her throat spasmed painfully. The air grew scarcer. And she began to feel faint.She wanted to claw at her clothes, in desperate need of oxygen as she was, but refused to alarm Roman some more. He was already doing the best he could. Stefan arrived just as the door to the kitchen fell apart. “Took your damned sweet time getting here,” Roman glowered at his right-hand man, his sneer wicked and promising worlds of pain. Rose’s eyes softened, seeing the worry etched on Roman’s face, obvious for all to see.“Scarlett refused to give me the keys,” Stefan told him sheepishly, a little bit of a blush creeping under his skin. “She did what?” Roman all but growled, now looking like he might just kill someone.“She put them in her bra,

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   68. New Cook

    Although Rose was as elated as any woman would be in a similar situation, she didn’t fully understand why Roman was openly kissing her for the first time. Indeed, even though he was a mafia boss – and as such, one would expect him to have less reserve when it came to PDA – this was the first time he made out with her despite having an audience. When his lips finally left hers, and he gave her room to breathe, he kissed the top of her head, and grumbled, “Be my woman, Rosalina Marcels.” “Huh?” Rose looked up into his eyes, which were peering down at her with fervor. Icy blue met brown, and she wondered for a moment there if she had heard correctly. It couldn’t be, could it? And yet, for the first time ever, Roman appeared to be almost reluctant to speak, and for a moment there she found him adorably shy even. “Be my woman,” he repeated in a hushed tone of voice, making the moment intimate beyond words, and making the whole world around them disappear. Her heart drummed in her ears

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   67. Slither Away

    “Remember when we used to go window-shopping with only 10$ to our name, acting as if we owned the world, and returning home to have noodles?” Maria’s nostalgia would have tugged at Rose’s heartstrings had the circumstances been different. As it was, she couldn’t help but be wary of the one who used to be her friend. She let out a noncommittal sound in the back of her throat, which was meant to be encouraging, and Maria went on, “We were tight, and not even the devil himself would have been able to break us apart,” she shot a not so discreet look to Roman, and Rose had to refrain from voicing out her thoughts. “There were no secrets between us, and everyone envied us… The bond we had was special alright.” Roman yawned rather audibly, and Rose couldn’t help the faint smirk that played on her lips. Indeed, Maria was trying to be manipulative by bringing up the past, but Rose wasn’t about to fall for that. “Maria,” she began, stopping the woman before she could speak further, “What a

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   66. Not A Good Person

    It was only once Flora was wheeled into surgery that Rose managed to breathe out and cry openly. Looking at the blood smearing her hands, she felt uncomfortable. The irony wasn’t lost on her. She was a nurse for heaven’s sake, and yet she felt squeamish at the sight of blood? That was a first for her, after her training – during which she had almost fainted. And she wondered whether it was because it was Flora’s, that she felt so out of sorts. She barely spared a look at Roman, who had come to sign the hospital paperwork, before rushing to the restroom. She washed her hands many times. And though she had gotten most of the blood off, it felt like it just wasn’t enough. The door of the restroom soon opened, but she didn’t stop scrubbing. Roman stepped in, his height towering over Rose, who was hunched over the sink, crying. Though the man wasn’t exactly a fan of PDA, and many other things for that matter, he didn’t waste a second to hug her from behind. Having recognized his frag

    Enzo’s face became immediately conflicted. But even as he saw Flora fall to the floor, in pain, unable to hold herself upright, he didn’t cave, “I can’t possibly leave you two here alone. I shot the shooter, but there might be a second one somewhere.” “Call for an ambulance then,” Rose retorted, her eyes full of tears, desperate but earnest, while pressing on Flora’s wound still. “It’s okay,” it was Flora who breathed out the response. “Everything will be okay, Rose.” “Please don’t speak,” Rose implored her, her tears spilling over, not knowing what else to do. “Keep your energy.” “Help is on the way,” Enzo deadpanned before she would willingly give him a headache. He stood over them, shielding them, his stance strong, intimidating and unyielding. Rose didn’t know how long she kept pressing on the wound, while tears made her vision blurry, but she remained strong, knowing that this was partly her fault. She was to blame for the mess that had happened. If she hadn’t asked that Fl
