Emerson walked in and placed Rose softly on the couch. He looked at Rose; she was scanning the whole room. Fear was written all over her face. She bit her lip, and her gaze stopped at the window from which she jumped. Emerson followed her gaze, walked to the window and looked down. He saw the broken branches and could see the blood drops on the leaves.His eyes widened with shock, and he ran back to Rose. He crouched next to her feet and started lifting the full skirt of the gown.“What are you doing?" shrieked Rose and stood up in protest, but she winced in pain and sat back down.“What the hell? Who told you to stand up? Are you stupid? You know your foot is injured; still you did this,” Emerson snapped at her furiously.“Why did you lift my dress? Are you an idiot?” Rose snapped back.“I saw blood everywhere. And I see only your palm bleeding. That is not possible. I just want to see where you are hurt. Is that wrong?” Emerson shouted at her.“You could have asked me to lift the hem

“What the hell is taking so long? Are you really trying to get us all killed, you bloody Ros…?” A voice echoed from outside the bridal room. The angry voice kept getting closer. Rose knew that voice. She clearly heard the difference between that voice and the voices of people inside her room. They all were polite and worried even though they belonged to a mafia group. Yet the voice shrieking at her was supposed to be from a rich, sophisticated, cultured lady, but she was howling like a bad-tempered pig.Ursa appeared before everyone, looking furious. The moment she saw Emerson and Fiona, her mouth automatically shut up. She immediately started smiling, and her voice softened. “Oh, sweetie! What is taking so much time?” She didn’t care about Rose, never had, so she didn’t see the bandage around her palm or the two pairs of shoes placed near her feet.“Oh, my dear daughter! Everyone is waiting for the bridal entry. Let’s go! Why are you guys here? It’s our job to bring the bride, not you

Rose’s phone kept ringing, but she didn’t move to touch it. Also, Kingsley had her in his arms, not giving her even an inch of space to move.“Good! It’s a good thing. But if he rises from the dead, tell me, I will make sure he remains dead,” smirked Kingsley. Rose gulped in fear. How could someone talk about killing someone so casually? But then she saw him shooting someone without even flinching.“Would you let me go? Everyone’s watching!” said Rose.“Let them. Are you ashamed of me, would-be-wife?” asked Kingsley.“I don’t want you to feel like I am a burden,” said Rose.Kingsley gritted his teeth. Who the hell called her a burden? He was going to kill that person. “What kind of husband will I be if I can’t help my wife in pain?”Rose’s heart skipped a beat. “Wait! He wants to care for Vanessa? He wants to be a good husband? What is going on in his mind? He is so confusing. How can he hurt Dad and then show concern for Vanessa? Does he really love her? Did he hurt Dad because Ursa d

Kingsley looked at every guest moving towards the exit gate for the reception. He signalled Deep, and he came running. He stood before Rose and gulped. Rose, too, looked at him, confused. She had no idea what he wanted.“Um… may I?” asked Deep.“May you, what?” asked Rose, extremely confused. Her feet automatically took a step back.Deep glanced at Kingsley and, after a deep sigh, he replied, “May I carry you to your car? You cannot walk on your injured foot.”“Excuse me!!” shouted Rose. She thought she had heard him wrong. “You want to what?” She took another step backwards and bumped into a muscular wall. She jerked her head to see who was standing behind her. Before she could see, a firm hand planted on her waist. She gasped, and somehow she knew that touch. She blinked her eyes and saw that she was right; Kingsley stood behind her.“You don’t want anyone else to touch you, wifey?” Kingsley smirked.“What??” mumbled Rose. Her brain was melted for sure by now. She knew her skull was

Rose sat in the limo with her huge dress taking up much of the space in the seat. Seth had to huddle next to the window. There were more seats for him to sit down, but he didn’t want to go away from Rose. She looked afraid and in pain. The partition wall was not up, so Seth didn’t want to talk about Kingsley in front of his men. But he could see Rose deep in thought, fighting with herself.He moved a little towards Rose by pushing her dress as much as he could. He grabbed Rose’s hand and cupped it between his palms. “Hey! You alright?”“I don’t know. I am just so confused,” replied Rose.“Do you want to run? Marriage is done. His condition was to get married. You fulfilled it. Now I can take you away. Just say the word,” Seth whispered near her.That made Rose chuckle. “How? How will you do that? You see all those cars following us. And what about all the people in this car?”“I will think of something just say the word, and I will take you away,” said Seth and pressed her hand even t
