Loracn's pov.My heart pounded with fear and worry as I nervously called for an ambulance. My fingers trembled, when I heard Rose crying in severe pain and sweating profusely. I know something is wrong and this is not normal yet I feel so helpless. I have never felt so scared in my entire life."L-Lorcan…" I anxiously watched over her, unsure of what had happened to her so suddenly. She was fine when we were at Grandma's. "It's…hurts so..b-bad!""It's alright, love!" I went to her, she immediately stiffened in my arms. "The ambulance is coming, you'll be fine," I comforted her, rubbing her back and belly but her face was getting paler much to my dread.The ambulance arrived soon, and I rushed them to quickly take Rose to the hospital. I followed them closely behind, my mind racing with conflicting thoughts of what could have caused this sudden and dangerous situation. I was taking care of her personally, and not a single moment I left her alone so where things have gone wrong.I wante
Lorcan's pov."P-Please, Lorcan! I swear I didn't do anything….!"My hand trembled slightly as I pressed the cold blade of the knife against her neck, my eyes lightening up at her begging."No! Don't do anything to my mom," I heard her bastard son screaming, but he should care about himself more than her because he's next.I slightly moved my hand which shut them up immediately. She squinted her eyes, as my hand threatened to pierce the knife through her neck. The only sound that could be heard was my shallow breaths and their crying."Why did you do that to Rose?" I asked one last time, giving her a chance to change her faith by telling me the truth.She opened her teary and frightened eyes and gazed at me in fear as she struggled to find her voice. "Lorcan, please…I don't know what you're talking about. W-Why would I want to hurt her–!"She sucked in a breath when I tightened the grip around the knife, her trembling eyes following my every action. "I didn't ask for an explanation, f
Lorcan's pov.I can't describe the extreme terror I felt when I learned Rose was in danger. I felt that the ground under my feet became uneven, and my head became dizzy. My whole body seemed to be crumbling and scattering on the ground, it was the most helpless feeling I have ever felt.It was the same feeling as when my mother died. The grief tightened my chest, making it hard to breathe. I seem to hear the sound of my heart breaking. At that moment, I wish I could dig out Cherry's and his son's hearts!Rose is the first hope I have ever seen in my whole life. Even a small thought of losing her scared me to death, it felt like I was thrown again into the past where I was completely alone.But when her face flashed in my mind, the look of worry and anxiety she always carried with her, the way she looked at me with her bright smile, and the way her eyes sparkled whenever they gaze at me, I knew she didn't want my life to fall into darkness again.I never cared how much blood I have on
Lorcan's pov.I looked into her eyes, they were more beautiful than ever and I could just stare into them forever. "I promise you, I will solve all the obstacles of yours. You don't have to worry about a thing and just live freely, and I'll take care of everything."She gently shook her head, her lips spreading into a bright smile that was doing things to my heart. "There's no real freedom in this world. We all have to accept the supervision of discipline, whether we like it or not. And even though I know how powerful you are, these burdens will always be there. No one in the world can remain in the dark with ease, it's just a matter of time before they stumble eventually."My brows furrowed as I tried to take in her words. I had always relied on my strength and abilities to overcome any challenges, but her words gave me pause. And she's right, power alone couldn't always shield me from all the difficulties of life.She rested her hand on her belly, her eyes shining with hope. "When o
Rose's pov.A smile spread across my face as I watched Lorcan's sleeping face. As promised he was here when I woke up, I reached out my hand to gently stroke his cheek, he looked at peace while sleeping. Now that I have confirmed his mind, I feel at ease. I can see the love and affection in his eyes, he treats me as if I mean the world to him, as if I'm the most precious thing to him.He jerked at my touch, his eyelashes fluttered and he opened his eyes. He blinked a few times before his lips curled into a sleepy smile when they met mine. "Good morning, my love," He murmured, his voice husky from sleep. He leaned in and planted a gentle kiss on my lips. I couldn't help but feel giddy at his affection."Good morning," I smiled back. I moved closer to him, enjoying the warmth coming from him."You know I wonder what the baby will look like," He mused, his fingers absently tracing circles on my belly.I chuckled softly, my hand joining his on my belly. "I have been thinking the same thin
Rose's pov."Why don't you..stay for dinner, dear?" Grandma looked at me with a warm smile and eyes full of hope. I didn't understand how to answer her, after the last incident I'm uneasy about eating anything here. Not like I don't trust her, it's just I don't trust other people. The way Cherry was drilling holes in my face, I don't wanna take a risk.I glanced at Lorcan because I also don't want to break Grandma's heart. As if reading my eyes he gave me a small nod and looked at grandma. "Thank you, granny, but I don't want to take any risk after what she has encountered here." He told her politely on my behalf. Grandma's face dropped but it's for the best.Grandma had fired all the maids, but she doesn't know that Cherry is the real problem here."Alright, but make sure she eats healthy," She sighed heavily."I will, Grandma," I smiled, and that finally her face lit up again. We left after a while.As we returned to our home, it felt more comfortable and cozy here. So, without wast
Rose's pov.I never expected that working could be fun and exciting. We're working for hours now and I'm having the time of my life that working with Lorcan.Lorcan is a hard-working guy, I already knew this fact but he looked amazingly hot while working. Well, I didn't expect him to him be so attracted to me, but he's a package full of surprises.He had been pacing back and forth in the living room, his brow furrowed in deep thought.After hours of analysis, he finally broke the silence. "You're right, we should do TV dramas," He declared, his eyes fixed on me.I gave him an encouraging nod.He continued, "Because TV dramas are filmed and broadcast at the same time. Also, they have a wide audience so this could be a golden opportunity. I should order the producer to buy the script as soon as possible."My mind was getting weary from working so long. "Sounds great," Still I managed to let out a small smile even though I was exhausted."Are you alright?" He asked softly, brows furrowin
Rose's pov.My eyes widened in surprise when I woke up and watched Lorcan moving around the kitchen. He was wearing an apron and…cooking?!Am I daydreaming? Or is this really happening? The guy who handles huge entrepreneurs is chopping vegetables."Is this a dream?" I asked, announcing my presence to him. "Since when did you become a master chef?"He quickly turned towards me, and a light blush spread across his cheeks. I couldn't believe my eyes, the usually serious and reserved Lorcan is blushing!He has kind of messed up the kitchen but I appreciate that he was at least trying. He looked embarrassed."Well, I overheard the servants say that you had a bad appetite recently, so I thought about making something special for you," He admitted sheepishly, I smiled loving him all over again. "I remembered my mother's recipe that she used to make for me when I was a child. It used to be my favourite, although I couldn't find the exact recipe, I want to try to make it."I took a deep breat
