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
Stinging pain, aching shot through Rosalie's body as she rolled on the bed. A whimper escaped her lips and her eyes snapped open as her body shook.A gasp escaped her lips and she sat up on the bed at once."Rosie —" the voice called and she whipped her head to see Alexander. Her lips trembled as the banging in her head grew stronger."Sir," her lips quivered and Alexander reached out for her at once. "Rosalie," he pulled her to him, his hands on her back trying to calm her down.The smell of antiseptic and artificial fragrance coupled with Alexander's scent found their way into Rosalie's nostrils and she gripped Alexander tighter. "sir," tingles of pain shot through her arm but she ignored as she relaxed into the comfort he gave."It's okay," Alexander whispered as he rubbed her back. "I'm here, you're safe" Alexander whispered soothingly when her body still trembled.The scene in the office clouded Rosalie's mind and she gripped tighter to him. Her foggy brain couldn't let her decip
The kiss was slow; love-filled as both poured out their emotions. Their tongues danced in rhythm and Alexander pulled her tighter.He spun around and laid her on the bed, his tongue not leaving hers even when she whimpered.It was a fulfilment of desires.Rosalie ran her hands in his hair and butterflies danced in her tummy as they kissed.She didn't know she missed him that much for the days he was away.Her rapid beating heart leaped for joy and the air in her lungs expanded. She raised her head giving him more access to her mouth.When her breath began to clog, she pulled away from the kiss with a gasp. She panted as she tried to catch her breath while Alexander gazed at her.He released a soft and muffled breath on her neck and pulled her closer. "Does any part of your body hurt?""No," Rosalie whispered as she ruffled his hair.He was her boss but she loved the silky feeling of his hair."Are you sure?" Alexander raised his head to her and they locked eyes. They both stared into
Rosalie's POVI sniffed and leaned into Mr. Alexander as he led the way. I gawked around in awe of his house. We finally reached his study and he pushed the door open.At once, the smell of books filled my nostrils and I let my eyes dart around. The study was a large one, almost a pristine office. It was immaculate and a large shelf of books was on the left.There were two chairs and a desk in the room.One chair was in front of the desk and a lone lamp was on the desk. It was still on.I bet he forgot it there."Sit," he mumbled and took his hands off me and suddenly, I felt alone. I sniffed as he walked around before he settled in front of a computer I didn't notice."Use your phone, connect to the house WiFi and entertain yourself while I work.""I said I want to help you to work" I voiced out and he turned to me. "You're still frail Rosie, your arm is burnt, you shouldn't stress it.""I'm not," I mumbled and walked to him. "I'm your secretary and you paid me ahead already, I shou
