"what?! So you weren't the one who sent the book?!" Rose exclaimed. She called Lucian to confirm the book with her. And now that he is saying this...But the delivery guy clearly said Lucian Desmond, or is there another guy named Lucian Desmond. Or, was he mistaken about the room number? But he clearly did said room 39. "Yes I didn't send anything today." If he wasn't the one who sent it, then who did? Rose wondered. "Do you want me to investigate. Some guy might be trying to stalk you by using that book to know where your location is." "Wait! You might be right!" "I suspect your creepy brother of yours. I think I should come over now." "No!" She quickly stopped him. "You shouldn't. You should stay with your family. I...i'll handle this. I have been handling him for years. He knows what's better for him by not coming an inch closer to me. " **He took off his hat, his coat, and the stolen wristwatch off his body. He walked slowly towards a dark alley. His mouth was busy, chewing

Rose was formerly listening to the voice call alone before her friends also joined when they both saw her smiling widely like she had won a lottery. The call dropped and both of her friends made a wow at once. "Ouu...oh my heart, he is loving." Lizzie was the first to make a comment. "Our dear innocent Rose is already falling deeply in love." Jennifer also made a comment. "Stop it! He only said...said stuffs." She blushed. "Hert melting words. The dude needs your company." Jennifer giggled. "So...are you gonna go?" Lizzie crawled up towards her, looking like someone who needs a gossip. "I don't know." She frowned. "What do you mean by ‘you don't know?’ you have to know and go too." Jennifer said to her friend. "You have to change, take a nice good bath, and get your ass to the Desmond's mansion." "Yes jennifer is right. Your boyfriend needs you." "He is not my boyfriend yet Lizzie." Rose rolled her eyes at her dramatic friends. "You guys like saying nonsense. I will go take a

Whoever brought me here, did to me a great favor. If I hadn't came here in the first place, how would I have known this will happen to him. How would I have known my curse still stays in him? He would have kept shut all this while, keeping the excruciating pain all to himself. We both unlocked, as I cleaned his sweaty forehead with my hand. "For years, I was hopeless. I told myself I deserved what had been happening to me. Years ago, I..." "Shhh..." I quickly shushed him up. "It's over now, isn't it? We should be glad instead." "Rose, how were you able to do it. She told me only if I say sorry to her would the pain go away. How did you do it?" He questioned softly, staring straight at my eyes. I smiled at him. "Roseline Douglas Douglas got herself in trouble for coming late to class. She got punished with the all-so-arrogant Lucian Desmond. I should hit you instead, now remembering you were the one who stole my first kiss." "You are..." "I am the Roseline Douglas you had o

Xing is had been a warrior all his life. He had extended fears in immortals and at the same time safety to them. He is prideful and very arrogant when it comes to him himself. His right age for a mate had suddenly passed, that he had to summon a witch for the reason of his slow mate bond. The witch made him believe his mate is the one who would rule the underworld, the one who had the power to rule and bring back to life, and that was a demoness, in form of a human: Roseline. He was being advised by the judiciary to remain low and dominant in the outside world, especially to his mate. The first time he had stepped by her door, he had felt the great surge of possession and urge to take. And the second she shows herself to him, he almost couldn't contain himself to have and bite her. He had said to himself, *so this is my mate, who had fallen in love with a human. *How disgusting and intriguing. And now that his real identity had been revealed, will he just be able to keep quiet an

"what?! What are you saying Lucian?" Perry questioned, still finding his words totally confusing. What does his best friend mean as a demon? Had he been dreaming or hallucinating? There is no such thing as a demon. "Rose had been kidnapped by the demon. We need to save her before he does something bad to Rose. Argh!" He felt a headache immediately he spoke. That demon must have done something to him. And he took Rose. He really needs to save Rose from him. "Lucian, perhaps you dreamt or mere hallucinations. There is no such thing as..." "I wish it was Perry, but it wasn't. The demon took two maids and Rose. It was the gardener. The gardener was the demon, Perry." What?! Perry still couldn't believe his friend's words. How is a demon real? There's no such thing. Yes, he also suspect the gardener doing all this, but that doesn't mean the man is a weird being called a demon. "We have to..." He tried standing up on his feet, but a pang of headache came again. "argh!" He groaned. "No
