The girl he would never get | ✔

Chapter : 50

Xave/Derick's POV :

*****Two days ago*****

I was happy to know through mia that Rose is alive.

Actually happy is the not right word to define. Happiest, Joyous, and many more words are not enough to describe.

A teardrop left from the side of my eyes when I was leaning back on my chair, thinking about her after getting to know about her being alive.

******Flashback******

I was devastated after knowing through my men that she had been spot dead.

I had been airlifted to New York right away from the incident spot.

I was in a coma for ten days in a row after the incident happened and when I got to senses I demanded them about Rose.

After I got to know the news I insisted on taking me to the spot.

I know I am a teenage boy but she was my first true love and will last forever.

I had thought to take her to meet Poppy(Grandpa) when he visits us this year.

I know we were still young to get married but I know she is the one.

Poppy also met the love of his life when he was 14 and they have been together for 65 years.

My tears are not resisting to stop anytime soon. They are just dropping like a never-ending rain. I got collapsed on the road on both knees at the spot where she was waving at me with a happy face because I got her favorite extra chocolate.

I still remember her face. Her innocent and lovely face, Which was enlightened and she was cheering at me like a sweet little child.

I am the reason she lost her life. I hated myself for being born in this family for the first time. I used to resent the fact and that is the reason why I have always been away.

That is the reason why my cousins are always around where ever I go to be, or I go to study. Though few of them are elder than me they stayed back and guard me. They act like newbies everywhere I go and start acting like getting to know me and becoming friends to keep me out of threat I had all the time on my head because of my dad still playing a double role.

Mafia leader and businessman. I know someday I have to take over that because without us leading it, will put our families in danger.

Enemies would waltz on us we can't let down our guard. It will become running or staying in power. My dad chose the second one.

But when I fell for Rose, Everything changed. I changed my mind. I use to resent the fact about being the next leader but I was bound to my responsibility and I know I will take over someday, but I was breathing air before having that life.

But, Rose made me think otherwise.

I didn't want that life anymore. I am fine with running away with her better than posing her life in threat.

But I don't want to tell any of this to my family anytime soon.

I would just let them meet her in normal stone field way but No De Vero.

I was still on the street crying my eyes out shouting like a maniac getting out my pain. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I have looked around to see Chris.

"CHRIS!"

"Chris, Did you see! She was right here waiting for me!"

And, and...and!

Words were getting caught in my throat finding it difficult to say through my sobbing.

And she was smiling at me.

"It was her birthday man", I stood up and hugged him hard.

He held me tight asking me to cool off since I had just been out of a coma and the surgeries were still fresh.

He was handling me when I asked him about her parents.

One of my guards spoke up, Not letting him talk, telling me about her father feeling lost everything after her demise and left the city to nowhere near here and never want to return any more.

I felt held responsible for his loss.

I just wanted to shoot myself.

She was fine until she met me.

She would have been at least alive if she stayed away from me.

She would have at least be with her parents.

Everyone thought she was a nerd but she was the gorgeous girl I have ever met.

She hid that beauty behind that nerdy make-up to hide from such a world and monstrous world she had been pushed in because of me.

She changed herself to become attractive to me.

At least she would have been reading some brilliant book right now sitting in a corner at a cafeteria with her friends babbling something beside her leaving her for a second to have her complete the line she is trying to complete for the last two seconds if I didn't see her that day.

I felt the rage to kill the man with my very own hands who caused this to her.

From that day, I lost my innocence.

That very caring teen who used to be a love of someone has been lost somewhere.

I have become ruthless.

That very day with my limping leg, I dragged myself to that man who has ordered to kill me.

I told my people to get the death party to begin.

A quarter of my men were with me breaking into his place. Each and everyone is getting killed by my men. My men were strong and sharp with their training.

They were like well-trained professionals shooting their bullets at the aims. Every head is being shot without a miss. I was sitting on that Man's Blue Royal chair waiting for him to be dragged downstairs.

There he was, With the red eyes not submitting to go down.

That got me to lose my temper when I had stood up from the chair hitting his jawline with the back of the gun.

I made them lose his ties and leave him in front of me.

He was ready to fight thinking that I am a stupid teen with a weak body and injured face.

But he didn't know which has been injured most.

My heart.

Blood has been dripping on his face after our long fight where he didn't even have the chance to raise his finger to lay on me.

There he is now," Shot dead in front of me now through my last attack".

That day

That very particular day, I have become the most unexpected person in my life.

An animal.

A Mafia leader.
