Alexander pulled her to himself as he grabbed her face. She ducked her head backwards as his cold tongue peppered her skin with kisses.She gripped his shirt tighter and that only drove him crazy. He grabbed her neck to protect her neck against the car."You're pretty" he held her firmer and without warning, his lips tangled with hers in a passionate kiss.His hand continued its work moving up to her thighs and the whimpers that escaped her lips muffled into their locked mouth.He grabbed her thighs to meet his poking urge. His hands made their way into her dress and within minutes, his hands met with her wet folds.Rosalie released a soft gasp and broke the kiss at the intrusion. She leaned back to give him more access and Alexander tightened his hold around her back to protect her."Be careful" he whispered and again their eyes locked.Rosalie's inside fluttered as she gazed into the sterling gray eyes that accentuated the desires his body held. His eyes had turned scarlet and as sh
Apprehension took over her as the blaring sound of the siren drew closer.She batted her lashes and walked back to the room people were. The rain had gone down and was only drizzling.She glanced around and saw almost everyone was with creased brows, wondering what the police came for.The fierce looking police men walked in and Rosalie's heart raced. Were they on a patrol?Why did they have their jaw clenched?Unanswered questions tugged on her chest and her thoughts wandered around. The shutting of the door jerked her back to life and she saw the police did that.Her brows creased and she instinctively searched for her protection — Alexander amidst the crowd.Her brows puckered up and she sneezed as she searched for him. Where was he? Where did he go to?As her eyes darted around for Alexander to keep her safe from the penetrating gaze of the police, her eyes caught a glimpse of a hand sliding a nylon into a bag.She tore her eyes away from the scene before casting her gaze back to
Alexander's POVMy fist tightened as I sank into my thoughts. Drugs. One famous drug lord controlled almost the entire hard drugs in Italy.And that person is familiar.I tugged on my hair as I reminisced on what Rosalie did. It was illogical. She was an innocent, gormless lady.I sighed and hurried to the CCTV. I was sure news would have reached that boss. I was sure there was trouble ahead.It loomed and rang in my head as I watched the footage. I had to see what happened while I was away. I needed to see.As the footage played, fear and apprehension held me in its claw. I barely made out what played in front of me as I reminisced on what Rosalie did.I was sure the familiar being I knew wouldn't take it easy if he was the boss of those drugs.A figure appeared on the screen and my eyes widened when he unlocked the door. My mouth fell open and my nails dug into my palm as his face appeared.It was him!At that moment, I stood and dashed to Rosalie's room. "Rosalie!" I pushed the doo
Alexander's POVI batted my lashes as I watched Rosalie through the mirror. She had just been taken into the hospital and was about to be attended to.Sweat broke on my face and my hands trembled as my imagination ran wild. The fear gripped me tightly, it's suffocating grips choking me as time went by.She was injected with the hard drugs.Collins drugged her even after I helped with the transportation of his drug. I clenched my hands together as I stared at Rosalie shaky self.While I drove home, her pupils dilated and constricted at intervals. I could see the drugs took effect on her.It was overdose.I casted my gaze down as regret pinned me and dealt furiously with me. It was my fault. I wasn't supposed to take her for that coffee.I wasn't supposed to take her for that coffee. To prevent all that, I shouldn't have brought her to Italy.How could I have forgotten how shady my life was?I sniffed and sighed. I just had to wait. They had to get the drugs out of her bloodstream.We'd
Rosalie sniffed as she held on to Alexander. She gripped his hands tighter when they got off the plane. They were back in New York after she received treatment for a week.She couldn't believe their trip to Italy was that way. She didn't even enjoy the city. Well, it was her fault.If she wasn't foolish, everything wouldn't have happened.The agitation still affected her, sometimes coupled with mild headaches."Careful" Alexander led her to the car he got and the driver went to get the luggage."Are you okay?" Alexander asked and she nodded. He clicked his tongue and averted his gaze to the surroundings while she gazed at him.He never talked about what happened between them.She hoped he wasn't angry with her."Sir?" She called and he turned to her. She bit on her lips and sniffed."Are you angry? I promise I'm sorry for involving myself in that. I—""That's enough" Alexander cut her short. "And I'm not mad." He leaned into the seat as he resisted the urge to pull her close and kiss
"I promise Mum, I was fine. We only had much work" Rosalie desperately tried to convince Aria and Pamela."You couldn't spare minutes to even call us? That's crap" Aria scoffed since she didn't buy the lie and Rosalie sighed."I woke up and slept off while working, Aria. He had tons of work. I was his secretary and PA, you could understand that. We attended business conferences and conferences. I am sorry for not finding space to call you" Rosalie sputtered in one breath while Aria kept her narrowed gaze on her."I'm not lying, Aria.""Is that why you are emaciated?" Aria threw the question and Rosalie paused. Did she? She only knew she looked pale."Yeah, because I barely had time to rest" Rosalie lied again and Aria scoffed."You're lying.""Common Aria," Pamela scolded. "Let's be thankful she's good. I thought something bad happened." Pamela pulled Rosalie closer for a hug.She was scared. She thought her daughter was in danger. When Alexander picked up her calls repeatedly, she th
Rosalie whimpered as he pushed his tongue further into her mouth. He held her hand behind her and smooched her like never before.Unlike his other kisses, it was filled with anger and emotions he couldn't pinpoint. She whimpered but at that moment, he only wanted to— punish her for being that close with Williams.Their tongues locked and he used his teeth. No matter how hard Rosalie tried to pull away from his grasp, his hold on her tightened.He aggressively kissed her until he was satisfied and he broke the kiss. Rosalie cringed and retrieved her steps from him. She batted her lashes as she wondered what he just did. Her lips were swollen and reddened."You—" Alexander ruffled his hair as he stared at her. "Why'd you allow him to be that close to you?."Rosalie paused. She stood still as she stared at him. Pain stung her lips and her mouth felt hot since he bit the insides of her mouth."He shouldn't be close to you," Alexander voiced out again while Rosalie stared puzzled.Was the
Rosalie gasped. With all the energy in her, she struggled to move out of William's hold but he held her firmly. His tongue dived further into her mouth and he forced her to kiss him."Stop…" she whimpered and pushed him off her. Her vision was blur but she took quick steps away from him. "Don't…" Rosalie blinked rapidly as she tried to get a grip on her consciousness."Stop pushing me away, Fionna. Don't do that," Williams cried out and before Rosalie could utter a word, he grabbed her arm and pushed her against the wall.Tears stung Rosalie's eyes and her legs felt weaker as time went by. His hands roamed roughly on her body as he pinned her down with his body."Let go…" Rosalie whimpered and struggled to break the kiss. She pushed him off her and staggered, stumbling over the candles in the office. "Stop it," her tears ran down when Williams wiped his lips."Stop pushing me away Fionna," Williams walked to her and grabbed her arm. Her eyes widened and a gasp escaped her lips when h
