ROSEANNA
"Look Rose, I don't know much about this guy. But ever since he have arrived, your brothers are at the tight spot. I have never seen then scared or afraid of someone. But whoever this is, he is very powerful. So please agree and accept whatever they ask from you. Okay? "
"Aunt Shelly,how can you even ask me for something like this? I can't marry like this." I asked her, astonished that this time even she is not understanding my position
"Rose, why don't you try to take it in a positive side. He is the one you've been waiting for. He is your prince." She said caressing my head, as I jerked my head away, "No! He is a man brothers have chose for me. He must be no different then them. Yes. I understand my brothers. But I can't yo around getting beaten by a random stranger. That won't do." I told her no, when she sighed in frustration. "I have already found my prince."
"What do you mean?" She asked, shocked at my revelation.
"I have a boyfriend." I said my words in one go. When her eyes widen and she started to hit me on my head, "What if your brother finds out?""Nothing!" I said, when I heard Ace brother calling us from distance. I started to shake while I walked inside.
I walked inside the room, Ace walking towards me "Where were you?" He asked me, when I started to shake in fear.
"I-i-" I kept repeating when a slap landed on my face. Making me fall on the ground. Everyone in room, looking at me astonished.
"I asked, where were you!!" he yelled as he grabbed me by my hand, and picked me up, "How many times have I told you, not a single step outside the door. Then how did you dare!?" he again yelled at me, making me fall behind, when someone grabbed me before I could.
The same man from earlier at the garden. His one hand on my waist while the other was holding my hand, his tanned face with his mesmerizing chock late brown eyes resting on me.
But the next second I read his features, Ace brother grabbed me by my hair, and twisted my hair in his hand like rope, pulling my hair from the scalp while they were intensely paining from the pull.
"Enough! Ace. Stop." I heard Remmon brother's voice for the first time in months, when he asked Ace to stop. He, talked for me. He took my side. He protected me. He gestured me to sit on the couch. My head was constantly down. But then I looked up at the people around.
There was a man in his fifties with another man near his thirties, then there was the man who protected me to fall. My eyes ran to the other side, as I saw Vellore.
I couldn't believe in my eyes. Was it really Vellore? Did he came here to ask for brother's approval for our marriage. I was happy, but then I tried to read his face.
His eyes were red and widen and his head was turned to look at the man who saved me. He was dead glaring at him and then I saw his hand turn into a fist. As I heard what everyone were talking about the marriage thing and all the other business related to it and it was not Vellore, indeed it was not. They were talking about the man who saved me from falling.It was the person next to him. The one I saw at the Garden. I didn't wanted to look at his face so I kept looking down at the floor. But while I changed my eyes he somehow managed to catch my glance at him. He saw my hesitation. Please, say no! Say that you don't want to marry me. Please.
I begged and wondered myself, as then I look at him back again, and he hadn't took his eyes away. Even though he looked at my hesitation, he kept staring at me still. I was uncomfortable from his stare. As if he was trying to read me.
"We have already given you the details of what and how much our company will be supporting yours. Even though we don't make out of box investments but we will be considering yours. I'm going against my family business for the support." The middle age man spoke as Ace Brother agreed happily with him. But then his eyes went on me.
"We are providing you our sister. Maybe that's enough."
"Providing?" The brown eyes man asked, as he raised one of his eyebrows at him, "Gotta say Mr. Ace, you have a really ugly way to address people." he raised his eyebrow at him. But then Ace brother laughed.
"Of course, No! I don't address people like this. I only address my things like that." his words made me look at him suddenly, I'm not much shocked at his words, because if he gave actually considered me as a human he wouldn't have treated me like that.
"Things? Who are you considering as things? A living human being?" he asked him, as Ace brother grabbed my hair and shoved me on a ground. "Yes. She is not a human being. But just a thing, "
"Ace! Enough! Stop!" I heard Remmo again said, as I stood and sat on the couch again.
But despite the words and things happening to me. The only thing that had my mind clouded was Vellore. I looked up at him know again as I noticed that he was now rather cool and neutral, he wasn't furious or ready to stood up for me. But just his head down, while he saw everything happening to me, while this man I saw for the first time was already taking my side and trying to protect me. Maybe Shelly aunty isn't wrong, is she? What if this man here is really someone who is here for me? He came and Remmo brother started to notice me and talk for me, while he himself was doing it.
But then the door opened and I saw Remmo Brother walking inside as I and Ace Brother stood to greet him. I saw his face. After six months. So a smile appeared on my face.
He lives in the same house. But he hates my sight. So I live under and make sure that I don't appear in front of him. He looked at me his face changed in disgust. As I saw Shelly aunt gesturing me to come. I was about to take step when Ace Brother stopped me.
"Dont leave " he murmured under his breath. As I sticked at my spot.
Remmo Brother stood and walked inside the room. As he stood still at the chair beside mine. He sat beside me. He would never ever do that. Not in this life I always thought.
I was happy. He sat beside me.
"So as per the stated deal. After four years they will get married as we will keep out promise on supporting your company. Until then and later." The same men said again as Brother agreed on this.
"But you didn't ask if she wants to get married? " the main guy said as my eyes instantly went to him.
Ask me?
"She won't dare to-" before Ace Brother could continue Remmo Brother stopped him as he looked at me.
He looked at me willingly.
Not by mistake. Not with disgust.
And then he started to murmur near me and I was sure that others can't hear it.
"I fed you. I clothed you. I raised you. I educate you. It's to pay back. " he said as I looked at him with astonishment. What was I expecting?
I turned my face towards Vellore as I looked at his face which clearly said to say no. Say no. "I hope you still want to see that aunt and his son alive. " he again murmured as I ended up nodding.
At that moment under the threatening of aunt and Rick I would have even agreed to kill myself.
They are innocent. Innocent in everything. I can't harm them neither can I let someone.
"Good then. Let take a tour at Mansion. And let the kids talk and know each other well. "
"But before you seal the deal. I want to put in my conditions." suddenly the blue eyes man said as we all became silent and looked at him.
"And what are they? " Remmo Brother asked with.
"Now that the alLiance is made I want her to transfer at the city with us. She needs to learn how to behave there. As we have already seen a teaser on her manners at the garden, I cant live with a woman who will always embarrass me. And from here on every decision on her from big to little and tiniest things would be made my me or my advisor, " he finished. My eyes widen at his words as I looked that he called Vellore is advisor.
And this deal. It's crap. Leave California ? My decisions?
Well, I was not wrong when I said that he must be no different then my brothers.
"We agree." Remmo Brother said as I my eyes ran to him. How can he agree with this. He won't me to leave here. I can't. I will not.
"But I don't " Ace Brother said before I could freak out. As Remmo Brother glared him. "I have been looking after her ever since she was here. And I don't agree. I have made every decisions on her. And I'm not letting her go until she gets married." Ace Brother revolted as a little relief ran in me.
Even though the only thing he have done in his life is hating me. He took my side today.
"Ace you know who we are talking about don't you? " Brother asked as Ace Brother nodded.
"And that's why I'm saying I won't give my powers to someone else until I think he is capable. " he said as I looked at him. Why this sudden drastic change in him."Fine than. I invite you all to stay here for a week and enjoy sight seeing in California . While you do what ever you want to " He first said to the guest as then later looked at Ace Brother and asked him to do whatever he want. And stood and started to walk out while Ace Brother asked them to show to there rooms and people. As I stood when they were living.
"She is nice" I heard the man with the guy as he was passing him a dreadful eyes.
"Fuck of. " while Vellore left in the last. Passing me a cold glare.
And I stood there as I saw Shelly aunt and Lia coming in. As Lia shoved her phone in front of my face.
"He is a real asshole. Look at the information about him on internet " she told me as she opened all the news online. As Shelly aunt hugged me.
"I know it's all so early and sudden but you will get fine with this. He seem like nice man. He even asked for your opinion. "
"Ahhh look at his social media there are not as much as picture as much as girls in his posts " she again yelled as Shelly aunt hit her on her head and told her to get lost. While I stood there.
"aunt I love someone else " I told to her as her eyes widen as she was so surprise that she started to take steps back and fall at the couch . And again stood as she shooked me.
"You can't you can't. You said that today never say that again. What if someone hears you. Ace won't only kill him or you but he will burnt down everyone related to you. "
ROSEANNA"You know everything about your brothers, how can you even think carelessly and commit an unforgivable sin?""Unforgivable sin? What is it? Loving someone?" I asked her, when she shook her head, "No Baby. Loving someone is never wrong. But its a sin if they have brothers like you." She tried to be rational, whereas I was already out my head."You always told me stories of a pitiful princess and a powerful Prince. That someone will come to the rescue for me. I found someone. And now, you are just saying that everything is sin?" I asked her, hurt, and broken. She felt pity for me, as she kept her hand on my cheeks, "Honey, be rational. Emotionals are just game. And yes, I told you about a prince. But I said he will come himself, you won't have to find. And see, it's here..." She said as she tried to cheer me up, and tried to play with words with me. "It's Kashton honey. It's him." She sai
ROSEANNAHis words, scared me, my self respect was alresyd gone with them mentioning the virginity test. But now, his words describes his personality. The one. I feel is cruel.I can't trust on this man either, I can't rely on him, like aunt said. He is rather another man who is print of my brothers. No respect for a woman.He said, as he was not coming closer to me, every step, one after another. With his eyes settle on me. His eyes were burning my skin. While the feeling of being dirty because of thier dirty eyes, filled me. They are nothing but dirty little piece of shit, existence of dirt in human form. That's all.Now he halted right in front of me, as Ace brother gave him space.His hands extended somewhere in the air near my face, when they rested on my chin. He slowlu pulled them up, pouring his heating eyes in me and devilish smile on his face. His thumb that was on my cheeks was pressing hard, when he got clo
ROSEANNAI can't believe in what just happened. One minute he is this caring and nice guy. But the next minute, what I just saw was very scary. Even though I am immune to anger, his was not normal. His eyes were releasing fire that I can burn in. He understood everything.Wait, is he going to-?No! He will not tell Ace or Remmo brothers? Will he? He wouldn't have if I apologized but, the way I just ran out. It seems impossible to convince him. I was at a distant from maze room. As I was wondering why he didn't came out. Is he waiting for me to reach him again? Yes! I should. Maybe, that's what will be right. If I just go back again and apologize to him. And practically beg him for not telling brothers. Maybe things will be fine.Even if not, just get on your knees Roseanna, you can't afford hurting shelly aunt again. Just beg him to let go of it. I wonder to myself, as I made my mind to go back inside and beg Kashton to nev
ROSEANNA"Rose, what you are talking about?" he pryly asked, as he took a step nearer to me, and then raised my chin to asked me once again."Roseanna!" I heard a scream, as Remmo came running to me, he grabbed my hair and pulled me away from him. And he look gave me a look. He was clearly saying not to ever open my mouth. He looked at me and then the man behind me.Were Brothers lying to him about my real identity. Were they trying to crack deal by selling them lies. He is unaware of all the facts about me? This is marital fraud. He can ruin everything and everyone."She is just out of her mind. And lost it." he said as he laughed and then twisted my wrist behind my back, but Kashton sure knows it already because his eyes were up near my hand. And the way Remmo brother was behaving was a clear sign that it was making Kashton more suspicious of everything.
ROSEANNA"Kashton, I'm really okay. Please don't call a doctor." I said, as I looked up at him and Vellore, who was looking at me, half sitting on the bed while looking at Kashton who was at the seat beside my legs on the bed too.After a little while of silence, we heard that doctor was down. So Vellore went to bring the person from down. In a minute or two. Again, he brought him up. As soon as the doctor came, Kashton stood from his place and turned to walk towards the other side, and looked at how the doctor was checking on me. "What happened?" I heard the doctor say, and looked up at him and then Kashton. I have never seen a doctor before when I use to get hurt. I don't know how to explain. So with my stare, I was asking for his assistance, and he did understood me. "Her back! It got hurt, Find a remedy to intanstly heal it." he said, as he turned to look at me, seeking my approval if he said it right or not. "Okay, do you feel fever? Or difficulty in b
ROSEANNA"Roseanna, are you ready?" I head a voice behind me, when I turned to follow the trace. I looked back at the mansion, when I saw Remmo and Ace standing, With Ace's furry eyes resting on me. It looked at me, telling me that he will not let me live at all.I failed in breaking the marriage earlier and this is the result. I saw Lia walking towards us, as she looked behind too following were my eyes was.But as she did, she instant straighten her body language. Since they are really strict about things, also not to hide the fact that they are cruel even to her. The last time, they almost burned her face with that boiling water. Its a no joke.But now, I'm leaving. Leaving this trashy place I once called home, leaving this cruel and worthless life I was living all this while. Inhaling all the scary words they have mixed in the air and taking in all the pain. Now, it's time to leave. Ever since Aunt Shelly told me
ROSEANNA"You have no idea, what you are talking about and who you are dealing with. Do you understand me? Use your brain more than your attitude. Or who else will accept an illegitimate child like you? In thier House? " he said on his way up and passed me. While I was shocked at my spot, standing Shunned at his words. Isn't it Vellore."How can you say that?" I asked him after taking a brief second of realisation and turned towards him, I asked him, as he shrugged like he was right. And that made me scoff, "I'm saying what I think." he too turned towards me steps ahead from me.He grabbed my hands and pulled me closer, "You are a fraud and I am glad that I got free of you. And just dumped you over another guy." his words were bitter. And I couldn't believe in what he said."This is not you Vellore." I tried to find a rational reason behind his words.But he started to laugh and one again grabbed my wrist tightly, "Wha
ROSEANNAThe feeling of shattered wasn't something very new to me. Instead I'm very use to it. Because I usually break two to three times in a day, from one thing or another. On a daily basis. Either by brother hurting my loved ones, or me. Either by his words or his actions. If not him, then the maids and servants talking behind me. Anything.And I didn't even expected much from this guy either in the beginning. He sounded like them, he did things like them, all they way, yet, when I see those little things about him that weren't so bad, I had something rose in me, that said maybe it's not that bad. But right at this moment, I beg to differ. Completely. The fact that he threaten me over my loved ones too. He is not different."If that what it takes to keep you under my fist." he said huskyly. And gave me his look of, I am big nice. Well, I don't need the look, I already am aware."Are you still going to pretend that you are strong o
