"Rose?" Rose was didn't realize she was walking mindlessly into the house, but was pulled back to reality as she heard someone call her.

"Yes?" she asked approaching Alex who was sitting on the living room sofa.

"Did you have fun, Sarah told me you went shopping"

"Ahem, I did" Rose gulped as she still felt the lingering kiss on her lips.

"Is damien with you?"

"yes he is coming with the shopping bags" and right on cue damien walked in.

"Hey man...I was just about to have the conversation with Rose "

"Umm okay I'll go back to the hotel" Damien smiled and went back, the ride back to the hotel was especially cheerful because he was 110 percent sure Rose will agree after some persuasion If not right away because that's how stupid she is, he copies some stupid movie dialogue or gesture and she blushes all red and shies away like the emotional fool she is, according to damien.

"Rose....I won't beat around the bush" Alex exhaled loudly rubbing his palm over his Jean cladded thigh to ease the nerves and continued.

"you know, you and the baby are in danger 24×7 since mafia world now knows about you, and your...your rapist he'll probably come back too, if he wants his child"

and Rose shifted at the edge of her seat fear and anxiety rising up In her along with the goosebumps on her skin, Alex regretted his choice if words immidiately and sat beside Rose pulling her in a hug,

"I thought we were enough, we thought we were enough and we'll protect you, but we failed, and I know you've been through a lot and you are in no condition or need to marry, but it's the only option right now Rose" Alex explained his heart wildly beating hoping his sister will understand the sensitivity of the situation meanwhile Rose just pulled away her hands still on his chest abd stared at him in shock.

"what do you mean?" Rose asked even though she understood it,

"I suggest" Alex stressed on the word so to assure Rose that it was her decision and no one else's.

"that you marry damien" he added.

"Damien?" Rose asked as her confusion from last conversation with damien was solved.

I desperately want to...

she smiled as she realized he wants to marry her, he loves her, but does she? can she?

it was all too much for her, she was lost.

"I...I need time" Rose said overwhelmed by everything on the verge if tears, she didn't even know why she was crying, nothing was particularly hurtful or upsetting yet she felt overwhelmed and lost.

Two days passed Rose was restless she failed to arrive to a decision,

she didn't want to marry, she wasn't in a Stable mental condition, she wanted to focus on herself, but what her Brother said was also right, she has lost the privilge of being on her own, being without anyone, she was aware that she wasn't exactly courageous or the one to take stand for herself, she was in a great dilemma,

she talked with everyone, with her mother, with her unconcious father, with her only brother that was present for her right now, she cried more and more, cuz she knew only ethan could've helped her right now, he was the wise one, and his absence hit her harder than ever, dread and horror filled her heart that they are beginning to accept and move on with the fact that ethan Is gone, he us as good as dead now, she refused to accept it, she wanted the pain and misery to be fresh as ever, so they'd be hopefull that they'll find him, or he'll be back.

she sighed rubbing her temple, her neck stiff as a stick, she realized it must be her blood pressure and laid down on the recliner trying to relax, she closed her eyes breathing deeply trying to focus on good thoughts, which sadly just didn't exist anymore, her trance broke when she felt a hand caressing her baby bump,

"Damien"

"hey there" he smiled holding her hand with his both hands while she laid there,

"Hii" she croaked the overwhelming feeling washing over her all over again.

A tear slid down her temple and he wiped it before she could.

"Talk to me sweetheart"

"I...I an just so confused, so lost, so overwhelmed" she cried.

"Why my darling, you can refuse if you want it won't change a thing between us" she assured her of course it won't why would it, no one and nothing can stop me.

"it's just I know that Alex is right, but I al not ready for marriage I an just 18 for God sake, I am not even ready for love, and plus.." she hesitated.

"Go on love, you don't have to hesitate when you talk to me" Rose's heart skipped a beat as he called her love.

"it's that you are a mafia too, and I hopefully want to get out of this life someday, give my child and crime free and normal life"

oh what a stupid bitch she has no idea my son is going to be the mafia king.

yes son.

even though Rose wanted the gevder to be a surprise damien couldn't wait and went behind her back to learn it.

"I can quit it for you" he said of course he knew what exactly to say in order to lure her in his trap, Rose gasped audibly unable to comprehend the fact that he us ready to make such a sacrifice for her.

"you will?"

"Of course, we will leave, to cuba or Spain may be, take up new names, open up a restaurant, I'll run it, you'll go to college, I'll take care of the baby too" Damien painted a perfect picture for Rose which hypnotized her and she fell into the trap.

what a dumb bitch believing a load of bull shit
damien scoffed and tried hard to not laugh at her face.

"You can fall in love with me at your own pace Rose, you can have all the time in the world, it's just a marriage I won't force you to love me, just let me protect you sweetheart"

he begged and anyone would've fell for it, not just the innocent Rose.

"I...yes...I will marry you" she cried in happiness as weight lifted of her chest, as soon as she made a decision.

"Oh thank you my darling you will not regret it"

Damien chuckled at the irony as they hugged,

"here, I brought it hoping you'd agree" Damien slipped a simple single diamond ring on her finger and Rose admired the ring and damien pulled her in for a kiss,

he smirked as he felt Rose moan on his lips,

she pushed him away and looked down before meeting his eyes again as horror filled her eyes and a lone tear slid down before a free stream of tears burst,

damien watched as the the spot of blook turned into pool of blood beneath her.

dun dun dun...
