All Chapters of Bloody Rose: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The receptionist kept staring, it took him a while to figure out that he was still staring. His eyes widened and he cleared his throat awkwardly. “W…what can I help you with, Miss?” He said, his voice sounded gravely, like he wasn’t used to speaking or something like that.Rain was drenched from head to toe, she was beginning to feel the cold despite how much warmer the reception was. It was beginning to affect her mood as well but she tried her best to make sure it didn’t, she did not want to be rude to the young receptionist she had only just met. He looked to be at least twenty years old or maybe younger so it was safe to say that she was slightly older than him.“House number 108,” the polite smile still on her lips, “I need the directions to 108 please”The young man looked momentarily dazed and his gaze was directed at her lips rather than her eyes, she was used to such stares. Her mother had always told her that she had unique features, the type that would captivate any ma

First thing she could register in her mind was the dull ache at the back of her head that was slowly getting worse the more she regained her consciousness. Then, there was the scent of roses in the air, the scent was so strong that it felt like she was sitting in a field where roses grew and she was trapped there. Everything was still dark and Rain couldn’t move her body but she could feel the pain and she could feel the hotness on her skin. Was she being taken to an oven? Why was it so hot? As her mind wandered through the endless possibilities of where exactly she was and why she felt the way she did, the memories of what happened before she passed out came rushing back to her and her eyes snapped open. “F*ck!” she exclaimed. It was so bright! She couldn’t see anything! She closed her eyes again and raised her hands up so she could run her eyes that were suddenly in pain from the exposure to light. Her hands wouldn’t budge, they were right behind her and they wouldn’t move,

“I am so sorry,” Nicholas held his sister’s hand but his eyes couldn’t meet hers. Rain wasn’t sure if it was because he was exhausted or just ashamed. Her eyes took in his features, she hadn’t seen him in five good years and she had a feeling that after everything that had happened, this was probably the last time in a long time she would see her brother again. “What’s done is done,” Rain replied, although she was mad at her brother for always making bad decisions, he was the only family she had and despite being scared shitless of what would come next, she was relieved that she didn’t have to deal with the haunting image of her brother lying lifeless on the ground. “You have to pay him back as soon as possible Nicky! This people are dangerous…I don’t know why you even got involved with them in the first place!” "When you get back to your place if you can, my bank cards are there...I have saved up a lot but I don't know if it'll cover much but just empty the accounts and start pay

Rain couldn’t sleep a wink after Aldo left her in the cabin. When she’d first heard the word cabin, she half expected it to be a building deep inside of the woods but it was not. She saw what the outside of the mansion looked like for the first time and it just as magnificent as the interior, the building was ages old but didn’t lose its beauty, it was practically alive, an art…a piece of amazing architecture that she was sure had lasted decades if not longer. “It has been the Guerriero family home for as long as I can remember, generations were born here and great men were raised in this house,” Aldo had said along the way. He wasn’t nearly as quiet as she had expected him to be instead he acted like he knew her…he was the only person that seems normal in the mansion. There was acres and acres of land spread out in front and back of the mansion and it made Rain wonder if she even had a chance to escape. She didn’t really give him a reply. They passed by a few menacing looking men

Rain smiled hearing the woman’s words.“I agree,” She said, Elisa gave her a strange look from the mirror before she put down the towel. Elisa then opened the other luggage she had brought and pulled out a hair dryer and a few other things she knew she’d need right after having a shower.She had been washing her hair with the rose scented soap that she’d found in the bathroom because there was no shampoo and she had no other choice.They weren’t her own skin or hair products but Rain was thankful for them as she saw them being placed down one by one on the foldable vanity table in front of her. She had decided while she was packing that she would go to a store first thing and buy all of her products about she wasn’t even given the chance to do that either.“This stays down,” Elisa pointed at the table. Of course, she bit her tongue and kept her mouth shut, she was so close to saying ‘yes ma’am’ again.Rain sat there for almost forty minutes if not more in complete silence a
