Prologue

Love was far on Rose’s mind as she settled in a chair… But then again, the devil was in the details, and she didn’t know then that love was slowly but surely creeping up on her. “Help! Somebody help!” Someone cried out, making her snap out of her reveries and spring into action at once, calmly but also efficiently. Three men were helping steady a fourth one whose white shirt wasn’t as impeccable as it should be. Admittedly, all four men looked roughened up, but moreso him. The man was holding a hand to his abdomen, seemingly to put pressure on a wound… not that it was doing much good. Indeed, if the blood was any indication, Rose could guess it was either due to a gunshot wound or multiple stab wounds. She didn’t mind the sight of blood nor the rough looks… She just knew she needed to help this man. She was quick to point out to a bed where the three men helped him into… The man didn’t even grunt, never mind saying a word of protest, even though he was conscious, and she briefly w

1. His Stubbornness

Rose was resting, still exhausted from her tumultuous night shift, when she received a call from the head nurse. For a moment there, she wondered what could possibly be wrong – the head nurse never called her – before taking the call, “Hello Elizabeth.” “Hello Rose,” the older woman greeted her in a soft tone of voice, “how have you been?” “I’m good. Thanks,” Rose tried not to show how unsettled she was by the call or how curious she was. “Can you come to the clinic to cover today’s night shift?” The woman then asked, straight to the point.“Is something wrong?” Rose asked in a concerned tone. If something had happened to one of her fellow nurses, or they had an emergency, they usually called themselves first. “Leila has a sprained ankle and cannot attend to Mr Bianchi,” Elizabeth explained on a discreet sigh. “Mr Bianchi?” Rose echoed after her, paling ever so slightly at the memory of the peculiar and unpleasant patient. “Yes, Roman Bianchi specifically asked for you once he

2. His Offer

Roman Bianchi was a mafia boss whom very few would be daring enough – or suicidal enough – to mess with. He lived by a few rules, among which harming children was forbidden, because even his chaotic life could use some structure. And at the moment, Roman wasn’t pleased to be on bedrest to say the least. He needed to hunt the rat who dared to betray him. This betrayal made him lose money, but also facilitated an attempt on his life – and made him lose 3 of his men. Truth be told, he already had someone in mind, whom he had suspected of being a bit too well-off as of late… He just hadn’t had the time to investigate the man at leisure. Roman watched as the stubborn and fiery nurse attended to him. Truth be told, Rosalina was a beautiful name for a beautiful woman, and he was intrigued by her dedication to her work. It seemed like her desire to help him on the first day was genuine, since she didn’t know who he was then. She didn’t fear him then, and didn’t fear him now… And that coul

3. His Unsettling Smirk

The moment Rose entered room 77, she felt Roman Bianchi’s penetrating gaze on her. It made shivers of awareness run down her spine, but also made a part of her want to make a run for it. She defiantly met his stare head on, unwilling to submit to the sheer pressure oozing off him. The mafia boss’ smirk was bewitching, and it unsettled her that her patient had so much power over her. She needed to remind herself that Roman Bianchi was her patient, and not just any patient, a dangerous one at that. “I accept,” she told him in a firm tone of voice. “I accept the deal.” “Naturally,” he nodded at her, almost as if he was humoring her. Soon, she explained to him that she’d have to monitor his temperature till it was back to normal, and that meant more touching – no matter if he liked it or not. His answer was a grunt. Rose figured that a grunt was a disgruntled yes of sorts. Roman Bianchi didn’t like having to repeat himself, but also didn’t like talking, unless it was absolutely nec

4. More Than A Bystander

Chapter 4: Rose was holding on by a thread, but her tiredness getting the better of her was not an option. She thus made sure to splash her face with water abundantly when she went to change. She couldn’t believe the man had had the doctor remove his veinous access. But then again, he was a supposedly generous mafia boss, whose contributions helped the clinic greatly. Ergo, she shouldn’t be so surprised really. Admittedly, the way he was dressed impeccably and looking so regal as he greeted her should be illegal. It did something to her that left her unsettled. She also shouldn’t be so bothered by his deep gaze, which was not amorous in nature. The way he exuded danger was too much not to take notice of it, and she wondered if it was fear that prompted her to act in such a coy manner at times. When she changed into her regular clothes, she gave herself a pep talk: Do not let him get under your skin. The man, dangerous or not, needs medical care, and that’s all you’ll be there for

5. Not A Child

By the time the car reached their destination, Rose had dozed off. For a moment, Roman was thinking whether he should wake her up or let his men handle her. His aversion for women, especially the meek and mellow who were hiding another side of them, made it difficult for him to think straight. Yet, he found himself reaching out to her, tapping her forehead with two of his fingers. And although the gesture itself was softer than one would expect of someone like him, it was all it took for Rose to spring up into a sitting position, and say, “Sorry I dozed off. Are we there yet?” “Yes, we are,” he declared at once, narrowing his eyes ever so slightly, wondering if her dozing off was but an act – for his gesture was too soft for her to wake up so abruptly – before brushing off all doubts… Now wasn’t the time to start questioning his decision to bring her to his mansion. Besides, Leila couldn’t attend to him in her current state. He shouldn’t be too suspicious. He had been the one to s

6. Rules

Rose heaved a sigh of relief when Roman Bianchi left the room. Her interactions with him always left her on edge, and she wasn’t sure she liked it. Hell, if anything, she should hate the man for making her leave the clinic to take care solely of him. But she couldn’t bring herself to hate a patient, no matter how stubborn, quirky, or despicable he was. Rose shook her head negatively, chasing away all negative thoughts, and began to pack the medical necessities away, when a man and a woman showed up. The man’s tone of voice was brisk as he said, “Miss Rose, let us lead you to your room.” Rose hadn’t intended to linger around, not that there was anything for her to do but go rest right then, and she was therefore glad someone came for her. “We have prepared a room for you,” the woman then let out in a sweet voice which was unmistakably fake. Rose wasn’t sure what she had done to upset the woman already, but she wasn’t in the mood to probe. “Thank you,” she replied in a soft tone of

7. Flora

Rose didn’t have the time to appreciate the room’s luxurious feel, or even the bathroom adjoined to it. She merely removed her shoes, had the quickest shower, and then hit the bed, in the same clothes she had been wearing earlier… not that she had much choice. Or so she thought! Feeling a little bit uncomfortable in her jeans, she fumbled with the top button so she could breathe a little. “Much better,” she mumbled, content, drowsiness holding her captive. As comfortable as the bed was, and as luxuriously smooth as the sheets were, Rose had difficulty falling asleep, no doubt because she was in an unfamiliar place. Nevertheless, by not having to focus on anything, and chasing all and any unpleasant thoughts from her mind, she finally managed to get some shut-eye after some time. She came to, hours later, feeling refreshed, but also absolutely famished and positively thirsty. She looked around, and realized she couldn’t even quench her thirst, seeing as she didn’t have a bottle of

8. Entertaining

As she emerged from the kitchen, Rose met Stefan who had a frown marring his face. “I was looking all over the place for you,” he let out in a disgruntled tone of voice. “I was eating,” she told him sheepishly, tilting her head to the direction of the kitchen door. “I never thought I would see the day Fi would allow a stranger into her kitchen,” he let out pensively, the ghost of a smirk settling on his face. “Why were you looking for me?” She then asked, her curiosity getting the best of her. “The boss has insisted that we should make you comfortable, thus sending me to get the list of your essentials from you,” his words, though flat, were an indication of his frustration. “I need my laptop, and I also need some clothes,” she said, as she thought hard of what was missing. She guessed she could use the shower essentials that had been provided for her, and thus there was no need for more. “Clothes have already been arranged for you, miss Rose,” he replied at once. “Oh really? W

9. Lie

By the time Rose reached her room, she had already made plans with Maria, her dear neighbor and friend, in regards to her sweet little Mey. Stefan was with her as she made the call, almost as if he was making sure she wouldn’t divulge more than she should – like where she was and who she was treating. Rose then declared she was in need of changing her outfit with a little bit of a grimace, and he reminded her of the clothes that had been prepared for her in advance. She had expected them to provide regular low-cost clothes, and was surprised to find chic designer clothes. She was almost tempted to call for Stefan, and tell him she couldn’t possibly wear these, but thought better of it after a moment. She knew she didn’t have much choice and would have to make do with them. She chose the least ostentatious outfit, and put it on carefully, afraid as she was she might tear the top or something. They had been tactful enough to remove the price tags, but she had heard of the brand, an
