Chapter: 29 Intense Moment

Chapter: 29

Connor's POV: 

I peek into Rose's room as I was wondering where she went. I couldn't find her anywhere at all and I have been looking where she had disappear. Benjamin had been in my sights, so I wasn't watching where Rose was going or heading. The moonlight came through the window that was next to the bed and it illuminate her soft features that were relax into a peaceful expression. She was sleeping and I wasn't the least surprise to see that she was exhausted from everything today. I want to kill Benjamin for putting her life in danger.

Benjamin lend against the door frame "She's a beautiful lady...the most beauty I have ever seen"

I gave Benjamin a glare as I was in no mood for his remark's "What do you want, Benjamin?"

"Please, call me Ben. Don't be so formal with me, Connor... I simply want to talk. After all, she is sleeping and I'm guessing you didn't want to say anything in front of her earlier today." Benjamin said with a smirk.

I close the door and walk away from Benjamin. He follow me anyway and I stifled an annoyed sigh. I walk into the kitchen as I sat down at the kitchen table. Benjamin look around before sitting down at the table as well. "What do you want to know about Charles Lee?" I asked.

"Where is he?" Benjamin answered.

"That I do not know...I'm certainly looking for John Pitcain" I answered his question while adding a little information on my part.

"Who is this John Pitcain?" He asked as he was confused.

"He is a man that needs to be kill before he can do any more damage than he already done. He will lead me to Charles Lee" I answered.

Benjamin nodded as he was quiet and he didn't say anything. I waited a few seconds as I could tell he was processing what I just told him. I asked as I was curious "How do you know about the brotherhood?"

"My mother...and my grandma..." He answer as he look at me.

"Were they both assassins?" I asked.

He nodded "That's where I received my hidden blades from..."

"I only saw your grandmother, where is your mother?" I asked a little confused.

He look at me straight in the eye "Dead..."

I kept my lips shut as I could feel the tension rising between us "I'm sorry to hear that..."

He shrug his shoulders, but said softly "It doesn't matter...it had happen when I was little..."

I didn't say anything else, but thought of my own mother and how I lost her to the fire that spread through my village. It was all Charles Lee fault and he will surely pay for what he have done.

Rosemary's POV:

The morning sunshine woke me up as I jolted upright in bed and I felt off for some reason. The birds were chirping unusually loud this morning. I shook my head to clear the sleepiness away as I slowly got up. I felt that I was sore from falling through the tree branches and twigs. I look out the window to see that it wasn't morning. It was close to the afternoon and I let out a groan. Why didn't anyone wake me up?

I quickly threw the blanket off of me as I brush my hair as I found a brush that look really old. I quickly walk out of the room and rush downstairs. I didn't see the person that was coming around the corner until I ran right smack into the person. I try to back up as my limbs were tangle with someone else's. I end up being up against the wall as the arms of the person came undone around me. I look up excepting to see Connor, but it wasn't.

It was Benjamin and he was smiling "Well...hello there, Miss Rose"

I felt my heart plummet like I wanted it to be Connor and not Benjamin. I let out a sigh "Where's Connnor?"

"Outside somewhere" He answer with a smirk.

I forgot that I was against him and he was super close to me. I was nervous and scared that Connor was going to catch me. What will he say? What am I going to do? He won't even let me go. He isn't moving away at all! "You know I do like running into you like this, Rose" He smirk at me.

"Well...I don't. You can let me go now..." I said with a glare.

"What if I don't want to, Rose?" He said smirking more.

He lean in as he wrap his arms around my waist as he brought me closer to him. I push away from him as I shouted "Knock it off! Let me go, Benjamin! This isn't the time to be fooling around!"

Someone clamp down their hand onto Benjamin's shoulders and I look to see a pissed off Connor. He said with a deadly tone "Let her go...now"

He instantly let go of me as I straighten out my clothes that got rumble from him. Connor grab my hand pulling me to him and he stood in front of me. My heart was beating a mile a minute as my cheeks were burning. Benjamin let out a sigh "You're always ruining the fun"

"This is not the time to be fooling around...Benjamin" Connor said with a glare.

"Fine, whatever." Benjamin said rolling his eyes.

"Go practice or do something with your time" Connor order.

"I'm going..." Benjamin grumbled as he walk out of the house as I let out a sigh.

Connor turn around to face me as he asked "Are you okay? He didn't hurt you or anything...did he?"

I shook my head as I answer with a smile "No...I'm fine, Connor"

He nodded "Good. I thought you'll be sleeping some more"

"Why didn't you wake me up?" I asked.

"Because I wanted you to get some sleep...you have been training hard. After yesterday...I wanted to make sure you were well-rested" He answer with a smile that was tugging the corners of his lips.  

I shook my head, but I was smiling "Connor, I'm fine. I can handle myself..."

"I know that you can, Rose" He said smiling as he hesitantly brush a couple of strands behind my ear.

My cheeks burn badly as he asked softly "Are you ready to train a little more today?"

I nodded "Yeah..."

He took my hand in his as we made our way to the front door and outside into the warm sunshine that was shining down. My heart felt like it was fluttering inside of my chest and my chest was swelling with emotion that I know a little too well. I think I'm already falling for him, but I'm not sure...
