Rose Madder Novel Novels & Stories

ROSE Something warm and glowing fell on my eyes. I pushed open my lids and my small, cluttered desk greeted me. I was back in my own room. What happened? I rubbed my eyes and tried to recall the most recent events. I sent out my application to be Rum’s assistant… then I left B.A.D by my usual route… and then… and then something–someone– covered my nose and mouth, and there was a strange smell, and… voices! My eyes flew open in aghast, and I screamed a piercing scream. “AH!!!”

"You’re not fit to be a Rossi wife." Then he left. With her. I wandered the Red Hook docks for hours, the salt air doing nothing to cleanse the shame seeping into my bones. By the time I returned to Harborview Mansion, my feet were bleeding through the satin of my Valentino heels — his engagement gift. A size too small. A fitting metaphor. Then I saw their shadows through our bedroom window, tangled against the drawn curtains. My hands were steady as I opened the encrypted security app. The feed showed Isabella on our leather sofa, Alexander feeding her soup, his hand gentle on her ankle.

Hera grinned and bowed her head for a moment so Bon's facial expression changed to one of surprise. "Mama told me when she was alive, she suddenly felt time stop and accidentally dropped the new flower vase she had just bought. She only came to her senses when someone came up to her and asked her if she was okay ? but do you know what he answered that person?" he said while the young man quietly listened to him.

He had no idea the bedframe was high. "Ouch!" He groaned, rubbing his hurting nose. He got off the floor and proceeded to the door. Wherever this place is, he needs to get out if it. He exited the room and searched a way out but he ended up going in circles. He got lost in the fortress. Dante is getting irritated. He came across almost five kitchens on his futile search for a front door.

The party at the Adonis family estate attracted the attention of many. Some believed this was the turning point marking a new achievement in Matthew's path to power. In contrast, others were convinced that Matthew would not take control of the Adonis family, as he greatly respected the family's head. There were countless speculations about this, but everyone was eagerly anticipating the event. At this moment, in the grand hall of the Adonis estate, beautiful lights shone everywhere, with bright red roses seemingly decorated lavishly without cost throughout the hall. Tall champagne towers, over a meter high, were being moved around, awaiting guests to indulge.

It was making the maid uncomfortable enough to leave her alone in the room. “I'd just...” she pointed at the door. “I'd just go,” she said as she rushed off. Rose kept her eyes on the maid who tripped, and righted herself. “Sorry,” she muttered and was out the door. Rose stared at the door for a while then breathed deeply. She had to move fast before Grim got back from meeting with the Sorceress. All she needed to do was go in and out. She already knew where the book was and nothing could go wrong.

She beamed and said, “yes, I have talked to dad and he wants us to get married in the span of one month at most.” Rudra nodded and muttered, “fine, now please leave me alone. And for God’s sake, you are chief doctor and do some work.” Kiara moved out of the cabin and her minions instantly joined her tailing behind her. Rudra heaved a deep breath to control his anger that want to escape... he slumped in his chair and held his head in his hands. His gaze fell on the two frames on his table. One of his family with his three lovely angels and his father. His mother; Gayatri, his sister; Sanjana, and his grandmother. His lips curved into a small smile seeing them all smiling. But them his gaze fe

Her peaceful bubble of life, pinned down and leaking with every new minute she spent in her old house. All of it stemmed from that single face that hovered at the edges of her nerves like a plague. Her hand that moves to adjust her pillow touches a sleek texture and the young girl pauses. The resin rose is staring up at her like it always did when she lays her gaze on it. Faintly, she remembers clutching at it before she went to sleep, but it only adds more irritation to Alina's already crumbling mood. Without a word, she sets it down with a clank, and then heads out the room with a tug of a new bubble gum pink shirt.

The waterfall roared louder than usual, but a rancid smell overpowered the usual scent of roses. Rogues were waiting for her, not Xavier. One of them was the unkempt man from the market. Rose readied herself, then she felt him. Xavier, running flat out, drawn by the bond. He burst into the clearing, eyes blazing. “Rose, run!” “No, we fight together.” Then the wild roses moved like a living thing. They had always grown thick here, but tonight they came alive. Vines wrapped her ankles, thorns gentle against her skin, petals brushing her face.
