Rose was in the gardens, chilling, a few days after she and Roman patched things up, when there was a bit of a commotion at the entrance.

Like the curious little cookie she was, she found herself going there, as if her feet had a mind of their own.

To her surprise, there was a woman, clad elegantly, and no doubt expensively, looking at everyone down her nose, as if they were beneath her… and she was the cause of the ruckus.

“You have no business being here,” the usually jokester of the guys, Enzo, wasn’t mincing his words.

The woman in turn didn’t sound pleased when she answered, “Well, I am not here for you, am I?”

“What’s the issue?” Rose couldn’t help but ask, finding Enzo’s words a bit harsh, and his behavior more or less appalling.

The woman wasn’t exactly doing anything wrong, and if she knew the address, then she was no stranger to who they were… or so Rose reasoned.

The redhead’s eyes focused on her. Her eyebrow twitched, and she let out, “You must be Rose. I actually c

    Rose was in the gardens, chilling, a few days after she and Roman patched things up, when there was a bit of a commotion at the entrance. Like the curious little cookie she was, she found herself going there, as if her feet had a mind of their own.

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   87. Craved Proximity

    For the next 3 weeks, Rose lacked for nothing, and had never been this pampered in her lifetime. Yet, no amount of desserts, and no amount of gifts, nothing really, managed to bring a genuine smile to her face. Ever since she had lost the baby she hadn’t even known she was carrying, she was no longer whole. And though Roman had assured her, time and time again, that it wasn’t her fault, she couldn’t help but think that it was. She had only gone back to the base a week ago. The hospital stay was only this long to ensure she would rest well. “I’d like to sleep in the guest bedroom,” she told Roman on the ride back. He gave her a look before saying, “You belong in the master bedroom, little butterfly.” She wasn’t sure whether he was secretly worried she might collapse again, or if he just didn’t like the challenge, and ended up agreeing – because what was she supposed to do really? She knew she was already in too deep. And navigating troubled waters, she didn’t bother hiding the

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   86. Stay

    Rose stirred awake, feeling like a train had run her over, aching all over, in places she hadn’t even known could hurt so much. She couldn’t bring herself to recall what had happened, but even before she opened her eyes, she knew she wasn’t quite in an unfamiliar place. Indeed, she was no stranger to the beeping monitoring machines. She was also far too accustomed to the sterile smell of disinfectant that hung in the air. The clinic? She thought to herself numbly, opening an eye at long last. I didn’t even go back to work though.She half-expected to be handed a chart, to be given instructions, and prayed to the moon and back that her shift would be a calm one. But then, truth hit her like lightning, and she realized a split-second later, that she was there as a patient, not as a nurse. She wasn’t there to help anyone. She was the one in need of healing.Rose gulped down noisily and apprehension kicked in, and her heart monitor picked its pace. “How do you feel, little butterfly

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   85. Sorry For Your Loss

    Roman received a call from Flora for the first time in a very long time. He was in an important meeting, of which she was more or less aware. He knew she wouldn’t call him unless it was urgent – she knew better than to call for something trivial.He had yet to hear what she had to say. And yet, he was already frowning ever so slightly. He was Roman Bianchi, and he didn’t know fear, but something about this call upset him in more ways than one. “Speak,” he ordered. “It’s Rose,” she let out in a panicked tone of voice, which was so unlike her, he feared for the worst. “She passed out, and won’t wake up. I don’t know what to do.” “On my way,” he told her briskly, rising to his feet without delay. A curt nod at Stefan, and the latter was soon telling them, in a not so courteous tone of voice, “Meeting adjourned, gentlemen. Let’s meet again in a few days.” “What could be so important…?” One of them dared to sneer, his displeasure obvious for all to see – and to hear. Roman wasn’t l

    “You have to understand, Rose,” Roman began in his usual cold, albeit mesmerizing voice, and she leaned into his side a little more, almost against her better judgment. She was supposed to be angry at him And yet, he made it so easy to just give in. “I am not a good man, and that is not going to change. But implicating you isn’t something I can do.”“I’m in too deep anyway,” she whispered, wishing he would understand where she was coming from.“You were not born into this,” he heaved a sigh, carrying on, as if she hadn’t interrupted him. “You wouldn’t get some of the things we do…”“Make me understand,” she pleaded with him, her eyes stinging with unshed tears, her hands basically twitching with the desire to grab his hand, and just beg him.“Let it go, Rose,” he drawled. “Don’t be difficult about this.”She scoffed, her pain so vivid, it was visceral.“How about you let me go then?” She countered after a beat, her eyes downcast, spilling tears, but her posture stiff.What was she eve

  • Trapped: Bloody Rose   83. Running for the Hills

    Rose made it to the bedroom in a little bit of a daze, her mind far in the clouds, deep in thought about the underworld she had stepped into over 2 months ago, without fully understanding the stakes. Roman went to his office, claiming he had some matters to take care of, and she couldn’t help but wonder if he just didn’t want to be with her. Getting in the shower felt like a blissful time, despite the memories of the day’s events. Everything kept replaying in a loop, and a headache was on its way to make the day even better. She could understand that her questions and accusations might bother Roman… She was sure he was not used to people using such a tone with him. And yet, she was dealing with a lot. Could anyone blame her? Hell, couldn’t he be more understanding, and help her with her doubts? Before long, she changed into the only demure, and somewhat not too outrageous, pajamas she had in the closet, laid on the bed, and just continued to overthink – and cry too. Almost too soo
