“You.” She gave her honest answer.His eyes sparked slightly in both surprise and another hidden feeling. It was good to know what she thought of him. It shouldn't have mattered but it did matter to him what she thought of him. And now his heart wasn't restless but calm. Calm like the still waters.“You aren't saying anything?” Rose asked.“What should I say?” He looked at her. “Or what do you want my words to be when it comes out of my mouth?” A tugged up smile formed on his lips. He was anticipating her reaction towards his question. Rose inhaled before she looked ahead. The view of the city through it's lighted tall buildings came before her eyes. They were heading back into the city and although she would love to go back home, she did want to spend more time with him. His question baffled her all the more. Was he catching on towards her feelings. She wanted to say it but she had planned to reveal it on his birthday.She smiled again recalling their date before she said. “It's noth
Rose didn't know why she felt panic slowly making it's way inside her chest. The black car with the unknown driver kept on tailing them. “Who is following us?” Her voice came out shaky and low. “Don't worry Ms Foyer. I won't let anything happen to you. Please hang on tight.”Grant had taken another turn towards a more isolated road and he hoped to get away from them. Rose wondered what was happening. She didn't have any enemies and knew her business rivals won't stoop this low due to their reputation. “..Am calling the police right now.” She desperately rummaged through her bag for her phone and the bag fell from the seat due to her anxiousness.She reached down to grab her bag to now pick up her phone. She already dialed the police when the car came to an abrupt halt almost sending her to hit her head against the driver's seat. Her eyes looked ahead to spot a van blocking their path. It took her three seconds to figure out they were totally cornered and surrounded. “Stay in the car
“She's the woman you saw with him?” A deep threatening voice echoed in the silence. The entire room was bathed in nothing but darkness. Only the light emitting from the television which was capturing all of Rose's movements. “Am positive boss. I saw her with him in one of his properties outside the city.” Another manly voice replied. Both voices cold and thrilling.“Perfect. We've found his weakness. Now, let's see how this all plays out.” The man with the much deep and cold voice said teasingly. “She's a blonde beauty. No wonder she swoops him off his feet. Got her full bio?” “Yes boss. Her name is Rose Foyer. Twenty-three years of age. Mother died while giving birth to her. Single father Mr Harold Grigg Foyer and C.E.O and owner of Foyer enterprises and it's branches located all over the world. She's also owns her own company that produces perfumes and her company is amongst the best there is in the country.” A hum was followed as a pair of sharp jade green eyes continued to stare
Rose refused to eat anything that was offered to her. She asked the servants who brought her food about their boss and specifically why she was being kidnapped and kept here. She had already deduced the fact that her kidnapping wasn't done for ransom. The whole room was filled with exquisite furnitures and a king sized mahogany bed. Expensive paintings hanged on the walls of the room. Each time she would ask about who kidnapped her, it felt like she was asking a brick wall or a robot because that was exactly how the maids were acting around her. They came earlier to drop her food and now they returned with dessert. Even their movements remained robotic and their expressions remained void of any clear visible emotions. They simply dropped the tray on the table and left immediately shutting the door.Rose sighed and couldn't even count for how many hours she had been locked up in this room. She could see the sun slowly setting from the locked windows and she thought of her father. She
She thought she was going to pass out at any second. His hands had gripped her throat hard and he didn't even flinch on wanting to end her life. Rose's eyes were widely open and tears squeezed out as her lungs continued to desperately grasp for the air. Despite the air fully surrounding her, she couldn't inhale any of it because of her closed throat. She was close to giving up as everything in front of her was getting hazy and blurry.The door was opened with an abrupt bang and two men rushed in before an older man with bits of grey hair on his almost bald head walked in. Those two men rushed over to grab Sayidrad by the arm forcing him to let go of Rose. Sayidrad's eyes were red and he wasn't seeing anything not even the pain of the woman who was close to giving up.The two men got him away from Rose in time and Rose had to inhale deeply with her chest hurting her in the process. She coughed while holding her chest as she stared at Sayidrad in horror and fear. She instinctively glued
Rose jolted awake and almost fell off the bed when she heard loud noises and more precisely gun shots echoing everywhere. She didn't know when sleep had fully taken control over her but right now her heart was going to burst right out of her chest. She was beyond terrified and clutched the sheets closer to herself and she gulped. The gun shots were becoming more relentless and it was in the middle of the night.She only prayed a silent prayer and hoped she won't die tonight. She still had a lot of unresolved matters to attend to before she was to ever want to kick the bucket. Her body shooked like a leaf once she saw the door knob of the door moving. Someone was opening her door and she wondered if those people came to also shoot her. It was sounding like a damn massacre out there and already the pungent smell of blood was already reaching her nostrils. She only has tears pool in her eyes and looked up to the ceiling before asking God why her. She was going to be killed once that door
“Am in love with you Stephano De Luan.” Stephano couldn't look away from her eyes. He saw only nothing but truth fueling out from those cerulean eyes of hers. She was desperate as she said those wonderful words to him. He remained still trying to process her words and it all began to make sense shortly in his brain. The way she looked at him, that feeling she always ignited around him and her always keeping him on the pedestal. It all made perfect sense.He felt her hands move up to hold his face. He saw tears pouring from her glassy eyes. She licked her lips and one more look at her lips was enough to throw his senses away. He pulled her closer to touch her lips with his. He groaned in her mouth and he could feel Rose's hands now move up and down his body in a passionate manner.Rose felt like she was already standing on fluffy clouds and the Greek angel kissing her lips and taking her soul away with him. She felt his hands grab a hold of her nape in a tight way which caused her to t
Rose was busy on the phone with her father. Her smile continued to glow on her face as she spoke. “What happened my dear? Who saved you? And...where are you right now?” Mr Foyer asked over the phone. “Am fine daddy and I can't tell you anything right now. What I can tell you is that am safe and I'll return back home tomorrow. I just called so you don't have to worry about me anymore.” Rose repiled before she asked, “Is Alana with you daddy?”“Yes dear. She hasn't stopped crying and worrying about you since this morning. I'll put her on.” The phone got connected once more and Rose heard Alana's panicked voice over the phone. “My dear girl. Where are you and who kidnapped you?” Alana asked breathlessly.“I can't tell you much about what happened but only that am safe and will return home tomorrow morning. Please don't worry about me Alana.” Rose smiled and couldn't be more grateful for having these two people in her life. “You have no idea how much I've been praying since this morning. I
