Semua Bab Bloody Rose: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Rain sucked in a deep breath.Her heart pounded harder and suddenly it became hard for her to exhale.What had she just done?She took two steps back subconsciously and stared down at her palm, her stinging palm that was a painful reminder of what she had just done. Only a few seconds ago, all she saw was red, anger and trauma mixed together and rearing out it’s ugly head.He’d told her to sleep with him for money, to use her body to pay a debt that wasn’t even her’s to bear in the first place and she lost it.Those words sounded so familiar, those words shook her to her very core and she couldn’t help the anger that claimed her senses but now she could see clearly and now she realized that she just slapped Alexander.Hard.He didn’t turn his face to the other side despite the force she used, instead his jaw clenched and his eyes staring down at his clenched fists instead of her face.Fear consumed her.Why did she—“You could’ve just said no,” he said, he still sounded weak

“So the council finally made a move? I was wondering how long it would take for them to crack and snap,” Romeo leaned down on the couch and propped up his legs on the armrest and his head in the other. He held a bag of chips in his hands and stuffed his face with it every now and then. They were in the living room, Alexander sat by his gun collection, just staring at it with a thoughtful expression while thinking about the havoc he could wreck with these weapons in front of him. Luigi sat next to Alexander, a laptop on his lap and thin rimmed glasses resting on his nose. They belonged to Alexander and he knew it pissed him the fuck off whenever he wore it so he did. “What’s you’re next move going to be?” Luigi asked as his fingers danced over the keyboard. No one ever knew what the fucked was typing and what he was planning to do with all those documents and contracts he created. If not for the fact that they’d all known each other from when they were just diaper wearing babies, A

Their eyes met. Rain tried to brush away the nervousness she felt in his presence but she knew that it wouldn’t be possible. There was no amusement in his features, not even a fake smile, he looked at her with a cold gaze, like she was nothing…she felt that way as well. He didn’t say a word as he got into the car and she followed behind despite wanting to hesitate or maybe cry out for help. His cold demeanor was much worse than before. She didn’t like it, she didn’t like the fact that it hurt her as well. The door closed behind her and she quickly whipped her head to the window, Elisa was standing there, giving her a reassuring nod. It still surprised Rain that the woman could show such emotions to her with that scowl or without a scolding. She has made a promise to Rain before they left the cabin that she would talk to Alexander and make sure that he wouldn’t hurt her. Rain didn’t want to believe her because she didn’t want her hopes dashed but Elisa had sounded so confident w

“Xander! So glad you could join us!”The first thing that registered when they stepped into the humid room wasn’t the familiar voice but the strong stench of rotting flesh…maybe being burnt?Rain fought the urge to hah as her steps slowed down and her gaze narrowed in on the chair that was in the middle of the spacious room or whatever the fuck it was.It was man, he looked to be in his twenties or thirties but Rain honestly couldn’t tell because of the state he was in. He was covered in bruises and blood from head to toe and judging from how some parts of his skin looked split open, she knew it was his own blood that covered him.Holy shit.Just where in the world had Alexander brought her?It was much brighter than it was when they came in and for a place that they built underground, it was quite big.Again, the man tied to the chair reminded her that there was no reason to feel impressed by the architectural design.His hair matted to his forehead, it was either he had red

The men spent a few more unbearable minutes cleaning their hands and dusting down their clothes while Rain stood next to Romeo and watched. “Scared?” Romeo had asked, Rain’s first reaction was to turn away in embarrassment, they had all seen her throw up and definitely make embarrassing faces yet Romeo still looked like nothing of that sort had happened. Luigi had told her that someone would clean it up and she didn’t have to worry but that only made things worse. She wanted to go back to the Cabin and bury her face in a pillow, screaming in a really frustrated manner. “No, I’m not scared” Rain replied, ignoring the fact that her forehead was covered in cold sweat and her legs were still shaking. Alexander called the men that had followed behind them during the drive here, once they were inside, the untied the young man in the seat despite his weak protests like groaning and trying to slap their hands away. Two of the men Alexander called dragged the bleeding man on the ground as
