Semua Bab Bloody Rose: Bab 41 - Bab 50

How did it get there? Rain stared down at the rose she had found by her bedside the second the woke up. The scent drifting in the air and causing her to smile. It reminded her of her time in the cabin and Rain didn’t realize how much she missed waking up to the comforting scent of roses until this one was brought to her. Rain silently wondered with a smile, would they still let her go back to the cabin or did Alexander plan to have her stay in the mansion permanently? Did Elisa get her a red rose? How thoughtful, weird but thoughtful. Rain looked at the rose with her full attention, her eyes taking in every detail. From the dew that was still on the petals and the thorns that still remained. She shivered. The sight of those thorns bringing back memories, Alexander. She was thinking about him first thing in the morning. Could he have been the person to give her the rose? Almost immediately, Rain laughed at the thought and shook her head. She got down from the bed and went straigh

Andrea Salvatore stared down at her feet as her father, Derrick Salvatore and the ex Don of the Guerrieros, and her future father in law spoke to each other.She stood there at the far end, she was not to speak until she was spoken to, she was not to move until she was told to.“If only I had a son yours to success me,” Derrick laughed dryly, “ I wouldn’t bother getting my daughter married to a man of my choosing but alas,”He sounded almost sad. Andrea didn’t really see a reason for the man to be. He wanted Alexander as his son and now he was having him so what was with the stupid mask of sadness.Mr. Gregory had a faint smile on his lips as he patted his friend’s shoulder and then his eyes met Andrea’s as well.“I think you’re very lucky to have a daughter as beautiful as Andrea as your only child because it means that you can have the perfect successor because you get to choose him and not wait for him to be born and then go through the stress of trying to make him a better ma

Alexander clenched his jaw until it ticked…his fists were already going numb from the strength he used to tighten them now he could feel his gums ache…did he stop?No, no he did not.“Well, it’s been a little over two years now,” Montero replied yet another question Rain had asked him. That stupid smile on his, his hands propped up on the table and his face resting in his palms.Rain’s face was slightly red as she was already smiling too much…she didn’t even hide the fact that she was completely smitten by the man in front of her from the second they all met.The man had a head of dyed white hair that would mislead one into thinking he was eccentric but that would be a misconception on their part. Montero was anything but.Montero’s gaze had shifted to Rain and his eyes took in her appearance…his expression brightened even more if that was possible and a wide smile stretched his lips.“Always a pleasure, Mr. Guerriero,” Montero had said to Alexander but reached out for Rain’s han

The drive back home was oddly quiet. Alexander just sat in his own corner, brooding, jaw clenching and he tapped his foot impatiently. There was so much tension in the car that it created an illusion of Rain not being able to breath properly. It was just the two of them but yet she felt choked up. Was it really the tension or was she having another panic attack?“Why’s your face so blue? Are you okay?”Oh. So he could actually show concern for another human being.Rain nodded with a forced smile and then rolled down the window and inhaled deeply as the fresh wind touched her face and cooled her skin.“What else are we doing today?” She asked him in an attempt to distract herself and not just because the pressure had eased as he finally said something to her.Definitely not.“We were going to go straight back home after the meeting with Montero but there’s somewhere I have to be, you’ll go straight home after they drop me off,” He said with a low voice. Whatever Enzo had said t

The scent of roses was the first thing that registered in her mind. It made Rain tense up because she knew that she hasn’t fallen asleep in the cabin the previous night. Her alarm kept ringing, urging her to open her eyes…face what the world wanted to bring. Am I in the cabin? Her hands reached for her phone and turned off the alarm before her eyes even opened. It was bright outside, so fucking bright and it seemed like she had forgotten to shut the curtains yesterday and now her eyes were paying the price for it. She was still in her room in the mansion. Rain almost couldn’t remember getting here last night because of how tired she’d been. Her and Alexander had talked all night. Holy shit. They talked all night. Alexander didn’t look the least bit tired but Rain kept embarrassingly dosing off and sometimes even drooled in front of him. When he finally told her to go get some rest, she didn’t even have the strength to argue, she just walked back to her room, eye lids heavy and
