Rosella“Bella, get up. It’s time to leave.” Mother yanked the blanket away earning a groan from me. “What the hell.” I yelled, instantly regretting when mum slapped my arm, harshly. “Manners young lady, the flight is in two hours.”Jolting up from the bed, I looked at her in confusion. “What? Flight? Huh?” I questioned whilst I tugged my hair back in a low bun. “We are leaving for Hawaii, now get up and pack.” She hastily spoke and strided out.What in the world is happening? Someone tell me?Getting up with a very un-lady like yawn, I walked towards my bathroom. Gazing at my reflection in the mirror, a gasp left my mouth as I saw the bruise darkened overnight. Is he a freaking vampire or what? Did mum see this or not? I hope not.. Otherwise prepare a funeral for me, thanks in advance.“Time to pack, yay.” I muttered.After doing my morning routine, I grabbed a suitcase from the corner of the closet. Getting all my toiletries, I threw them in. Lazily, I dragged myself towards the clo

Rosella“Baby I’ll be your preacher. And I’ll be leading you on, if you keep leading me into the room~” Humming the tune from Chase Atlantic, I unpacked the luggage, placing the necessary things beside the vanity mirror which was decorated with several white light bulbs.The hotel, we were staying at was owned by one of Zeus’s close friends. It was several feet away from the ocean, extremely luxurious yet had a tinge of dusty old wooden effect to it thus this became one of the main expensive attractive resorts in Hawaii.The room I was staying in was opposite to Stella’s and next to Zeus’s. Elisa had landed in with me, apparently she loved my company and they’re were two beds. There goes my privacy.“Yo girl, we’re going to the beach, you coming?” Elisa stood next to the door of the bathroom with a towel in her hand as she dried herself up -- from the shower she took earlier. A matching two colored swimming suit latched on her skin -- beige and purple. She had the right amount of curv

RosellaGulping, I backed away but his hand flew and instantly grasped my left ankle, pushing me roughly, as I slid on my back towards the edge of bed.“Sit still or otherwise I’ll tie you up to this bed post.” He rasped out. Giving him a meek nod, I lifted myself on my elbows.“Words darling. Don’t fucking forget whose in charge here, yes?”“Y-Yes.” I whispered out. “Not so confident now, are we?” He scoffed, a delicious vein popping out of his neck ready to sucked and devoured. Fuck. He looked tempting when he was all angry.The room suddenly felt cold. My almost naked body bare to his orbs. “Little girls like you shouldn’t wear these types of suits, no?” He wildly growled out as his eyes took in every little detail of the slightest curves.“My choice.” I muttered back, feeling vulnerable and somewhat embarrassed.Was I actually throwing myself at him?Shaking his head in disappointment, he sat next to me. “Crawl over my lap.” He stated, more like demanded. “I.. I think I’ve learned

Rosella“What do we have for dinner?” I came rushing out of my room towards Elisa, who was sprawled over the couch like a lazy cat. One of her leg resting on Mattia’s lap, while her other leg dangling off the couch. “Don't know, what do you wanna order?” She asked, tilting her head towards my direction. “Anything that’s yummy, like me.” I winked at her.“You’re already very sweet Rose. Don't want another toothache. I’ve already endured tons.” Mattia muttered, earning a snort from Dante who sat opposite to them with his head buried in his phone.“Expected from the horny kid.”“Shut up Dan. As if you’re very innocent yourself.” Mattia sassed back. “Oh oh, I’m at least a gentleman from heart.” He tsked, his fingers furiously typing something, crease lines appearing on his forehead. He looked conflicted? Suddenly his phone rang. “Be right back.” He hastily said while receiving the call and went out.“Boy, did his girlfriend ditch him?” I muttered. Elisa glanced at me and laughed. “I bet h

RosellaShots were heard all around us.Dante had tucked us in the emergency exit. “What the fuck is going on, Dan?” Mattia hissed in anger. “Someone bailed us out. But anyways you three go and run downstairs, there will be a car waiting for you all and don't come back? No matter what. Am I clear?” He concluded his speech with seriousness lurking on his face. “But what about you?” I immediately asked, not liking the idea of leaving him behind. His face softened as he glanced at me. Bringing me closer, he pecked my forehead. “I promise, I’ll be there in no time.”“Promise?”“Promise.” He replied and gave me a small smile. He himself didn't knew if he could come back alive or not. “Be careful.” I hesitantly said and walked towards the stairs. The bangs getting louder and louder by each and every passing second.“Little Rose. Quick. Go.”Giving him a last nod, I locked the exit behind myself leaving him on the other side in darkness. “Is he gonna be okay?” Elisa dreadly asked. “He will b

Rosella“Why isn't she awake yet? It has been almost 5 hours.”Muffled up voices entered my brain, making me stir in my sleep...“Exhaustion and panic took over her. She’ll be okay.”A silent groan left my mouth as I turned around slightly. The darkness infront of my eyes seemed to be endless.“Gosh, she’s waking up. Rose? Can you hear me?”Someone shook me awake from my slumber. Slowly opening my eyes, my hand instantly shot up to my head. “Rose? Rose?” The feminine voice said from beside me. Turning my head ever so slightly, I saw Stella sitting with her hands intervened with mine. “My god. Finally. I thought you went poof.” She shrieked loudly, making me dryly chuckle in response. “Water?”I nodded.She instantly got up and hastily strided out leaving me in silence, but the silence was soon interrupted by a loud thud of the door.“ROSELLA DANKWORTH. YOU ARE AN IDIOT.”Dante came yelling at me whilst crossing his arms infront of his chest.“You look like shit.” I replied with a sc

RosellaTwo days had passed after that incident. We were now back to America. Zeus had said that he had some work to do but infact the real reason was; the danger was still lurking in that area or maybe around us. Who knows.“You’re back finally. I had missed you.” Selena came yelling and hugged me tightly. I chuckled and hugged her back. “Sel, you exaggerate a lot. I was just gone for a few days.”“But still! Our group isn't complete without you.” She tsked and broke off the hug when she heard a clearing of a throat behind us.“Ladies, mind if you can let us gentlemen pass through?”There stood a duo, highly identical to each other, twins for sure. “And why should we? There is space just beside us. Pass from there.” Selena huffed. I smiled at them and took a step back to give them the space. “Why thankyou, mi’lady. Unlike your friend, you’re very co-operative.” The one with glasses said, his hair dyed in purple and a ring embedded in the piercing of his nose.“Hey, that wasn't funny.

Rosella“You weren’t supposed to leave me like this. You had to protect me.”Leaning against the concrete tomb, I softly brushed my fingers against the name that gave me a sense of relief and happiness.Arabella Dankworth -- Beloved daughter and sister. “You know what, later I’ll be performing a surgery with the elite doctor. When I first attended the class, he used to talk about the project we’d do in the upcoming week but sadly it was cancelled due to the seniors present there at first.”I hummed in delight however my mood suddenly dampened when I recalled the memories. “Well, there is a bit of a problem-” Pausing, I nervously chuckled scratching the back of my head, “-He kinda cancelled my scholarship and deducted some of the credit hours from all of the subjects. I’m definitely failing aren't I? Also I’ve too look for a job! The amount is huge. I don't know how I’ll be able to make your dream come true.”Huffing, I ranked my fingers through my silky wet hair. “Bells, I fucked for

RosellaWhat was I supposed to do here? Gawk at the patients or at the doctors?He had literally banned me from coming in the ICU. I swear this human is bipolar as fuck. But Grey being the coolest friend pleaded for me too take part in it and that’s how I ended up in the far corner where the nurses stood whilst Professor Zeus addressed how to handle the things with care and knowledge.“Ah he is just so hot and young. Too bad he is engaged.” One of the nurses whispered to the other one. I scoffed inwardly, “good thing Stella knows to control him from bitches.”“What did you just say?” The women turned around with a snarl on her face.“Uh nothing? I was mumbling about my upcoming test.”“It better be.” She tsked and turned back.“Bitch.” Rolling my eyes, I crossed my arms over my chest feeling a wave of irritation pass over me.Is he actually unaware of the stares or is he trying to avoid them? But whatever it is, it’s a win win situation for me. Because that shows he doesn't care abou

Rosella “Huh..? What are y-you rambling about?” I scrunched up my eyebrows, obviously trying to hide the vulnerability in my voice.“You exactly know what I mean and don't play around the bush, Rosella.” He huskily gritted out the words, that seemed to have a weird effect on my body. Fidgeting with the sleeves of the shirt, I shrugged, dragging my body towards the locked door, “nothing that concerns you.”His large gruff palm grabbed my wrist, halting me in my steps.My eyes flickered to his hand and then to his face, that had a dangerous tint to it. It was as if he was controlling the surfing rage. “Let go.” I slowly stated, my voice just above a whisper.In matter of seconds he twirled me around and yanked me back towards the table. A whimper left my mouth when the sharp corner of the oak harshly collided with my waist.I tried to push him off me but both of his arms flew next to my body, trapping me in between it, like a prey in a cage. “No where to go now, hm?” He sarcastically s
