Weeks of anger and restraint had passed for both Alexander and Rosalie. On Alexander's side, the family was planning the wedding for Sophia and him.On Rosalie's side, it was gruesome to watch the man he loved with another lady. Sophia never failed to taunt her.It was Sophia's thinking she was going to make Rosalie jealous until she left Alexander and then she will make her pay.But it was another case for Rosalie, she was starting to find out there was an issue for Alexander. Alexander was colder to her but it never bothered her.He'd be warm when he let his guards down.They were in the office since it was Monday, the beginning of a new week. Rosalie sucked in her cheeks as she walked to Alexander's office. She had just gone to get the files from the MD office and she paid blind eyes to the looks on both the assistants and the MD himself.She cared less. She took deep breaths when she sighted Alexander's door. She was sacrificing her ego and self respect because she loved him. And

It was love making to the duo. Alexander held her close and kneaded the part he placed his hands on. He massaged her body to help with her soreness.Time went by as they laid beside each other. Rosalie relaxed into his hold. It was still unbelievable he was that close to her. She placed her head on his chest and listened to his rhythmic heartbeat.She wanted to ask questions; to know about why he was away and cold to her but she couldn't — she didn't want him to leave."Rosie," Alexander raised her head to his with brows raised. "Where did you slip into, I asked a question."Huh? Rosalie licked her lips and sat up on the sofa. "I…I was just happy you aren't cold anymore and at the same time—" she licked her lips and sniffed."I'm scared you might go back into your shell. I wouldn't be able to take it if you do. It was heartbreaking for me" she cried and he exhaled."It's okay," Alexander pulled her to himself and brushed her nose with his. "I won't" he whispered more like a promise.I

"Come in," Alexander called out and Rosalie pushed the door open. When his eyes rested on her, the insides of him grew warm."Good morning, sir" Rosalie muttered as she tried to push her jelly legs towards him. What happened between them in the past two days was the only thing that replayed in her head.She was just resting her eyes on him for the past two days. They only spoke on the phone."Come," Rosalie nodded and bit the insides of her cheeks as she forced her shy self to walk to him.As soon as she was close enough, Alexander grabbed her hand and trailed his hands on her supple skin. He missed the feeling of her skin.He was away from her for two days. He missed her."You're pretty," he whispered and gently kissed her arm. Rosalie shuddered and shut her eyes as his lips moved on her skin.When she didn't feel anything, she opened her eyes and they locked eyes. Alexander pulled her to his thighs and a gasp escaped her lips."Sir—" she breathed out wide-eyed."What?" Alexander ch

"And you think it wasn't important to tell me?" Alexander scoffed over the phone and Rosalie sighed.She skipped work for two days. When she visited Pamela, she didn't have the energy to go to work the next day because of the conversation between them both "I'm sorry, sir" she apologized.She heard him exhale over the phone, "where are you at the moment?""At…mum's place" she breathed out and at once, the call disconnected. Rosalie scoffed and leaned back into the chair she was in.Couldn't he say he was ending the call? Was he arrogant or that was just his way of life? She curled on the sofa enjoying her show.Her mum wasn't home. She had gone to her place of work. Boredom held her hostage and she used the TV. She would have called Aria over if Aria wasn't in her place of work.The doorbell rang, jolting her out of her thoughts and her brows creased. It wasn't time for her mum to come back. Who could it be?Alexander clicked in her mind and her confusion grew deeper. Could it be him

Rosalie's eyes fluttered open. She shut them back as she stirred on the bed. Agonizing pain and hammering in her head clawed her chest at once.She groaned as she stirred and gently, her eyes flickered open. This time, she squinted them until her eyes took in the hospital's white intricate ceilings.The antiseptic smell of the hospital welcomed her, causing an irritating clog in her throat. She groaned once more and at once, a distant voice echoed in her ear."Rosalie," it was Pamela, "Rosalie," Pamela called expectantly as Rosalie moaned in pain.Her eyes adjusted to the rays but not to the pain. She sniffed and Pamela grabbed the hand she stretched out. "Rosalie," "Mum?" Rosalie bit on her lip to take in the pain and at the same time stared at her mother seated in front of her, "mum, where am I?" She moaned when she stirred."Stay calm, your leg is bandaged," Pamela whispered amidst her happiness. She couldn't believe Rosalie was awake.After being in a temporary coma for five days
