LOUDER
"Ms. Rosaline," The manager getting shaken in fear because of Rosaline's furiousness, "You're misunderstanding me... I didn't think of tarnishing anyone's reputation..." Christian hadn’t spoken a word since Rosaline entered, since he knew he didn’t need to."If so, just answer my question, Rosaline said softly, each syllable sharp, "who exactly told you to accuse me of being easily manipulated? Who had the audacity to suggest I’d allow someone to seduce me for favors?" The manager frightened and looked at Oliver which made him tremble, Christian noticed their exchange, though he expected some fun reveal, still the manager stayed tight lipped.With an anxious face, the manager stammered, "I got these photos from an anonymous person Ms. Rosaline, all I've done is ask him about the incident, as I... I was merely concerned..." "What a great concern!" Christian stepped in, with a sharp and smooth voice. "Since when does concern sound like a public character assassination? You didn't hes
CONCERNED?
"Excuse me?" Christian blinked as he was stunned at the vulgar accusation. The words hit harder than a slap, raw, insulting, and degrading.The manager sneered, clearly emboldened by the silent spectators around them. "You heard me well intern Chris, how long you're going to pretend innocent even after everyone got to know about the slutty side of yours?" The room fell into an icy silence.Christian clenched his fist, tightening his jaw, "It'll be best if you control your mouth and keep your words in check if you don't want me to use my first..." "How dare you threaten me!" The manager fumed with rage, Christian retorted in the same cold tone, "I dare... If you dare to use foul words against me." "Do you even know who I'm?" "You're a manager and I'm an intern, both works in the same company and have the same employer, is there anything else for me to know?" The manager and even others were surprised because of Christian's voice full of authority, till today, no intern dared to
CAN I COME IN?
"Why?" Rosaline frowned as Christian was stubborn and not allowing her to get inside, "Hey, why are you not allowing me into your room as if you hid a woman inside?" Christian said with a forced smile, "I've nothing to hide in this room, moreover you can be in the guest room for tonight, I already asked grandma to prepare that room for you, and this room is for me... Good night, sweet dreams and don't disturb me..." He just closed the door while she is still standing in front of the door.She kicked the door in frustration, "Chris you idiot, I'll smack your face if you don't open the door, how dare you close the door on my face?" Neither he answered, nor opened the door, his heart pounding too fast as he leaned on the door from other side.Kicking the door one last time expressing all her anger, Rosaline left from there.The deep silence made Christian to understand that Rosaline has already left, and he took a breath in relief, "thank God, escaped for tonight, just when we are no
RED!
"Ezra, only he can help me," Christian thought to himself missing Ezra, "Just a day without him, I'm missing him already, he must also be missing me a lot...." The fireplace hissed softly, its golden light throwing restless shadows across the estate’s carved walls, echoing the storm inside Christian’s mind. Christian paced back and forth in front of the fireplace, his hands buried deep in his pockets, jaw clenched tight, "I don't even know with whom to discuss this, he is the only one who listens to my bickering and ranting whole day without complaining." "If he were to hear that I'm missing him, I'm sure he'll tease me forever." Christian laughed to himself thinking how Ezra would react.From the doorway, Rosaline leaned against the frame, with crossed arms and watching him."You’ve been pacing for thirty minutes," she said, arching a brow, "Aren't your legs tired?" "My mind is messed up, I’m just trying to figure out what to do... I need to think." "Don’t," she said with a gri
DON'T YOU KNOW ABOUT ME?
"What more can you expect," Lord Valemire jokingly spoke, "From the only heir of the Sargent family?" Rosaline's eyes sharpened as she glared at him, "Is it Chris? Am I supposed to expect a co-wife from you?" Her words lingered in the room like smoke after a fire, sharp, choking, almost impossible to ignore.Christian flinched slightly, "come on Rose, it's just a joke... Why so serious? Don't you know about me?" "I still can't figure out what exactly you're and how much I know about you, so, I’m just asking for future reference," she interrupted smoothly, crossing her arms. "Is there an ex-wife hiding in the dungeons? Maybe a half-vampire mistress in the attic? A secret baby somewhere in the woods?" Liliana made a choked sound that could’ve been a cough or a laugh, but everyone wisely kept quiet.Christian sighed, dragging a hand through his hair. "No, there’s no one, there's only you, just you only, you don't have to think too much about that." Rosaline gave him a long look rath
I'LL DEAL WITH THIS
"Chrissy’s engagement," Liliana said with far too much casualness for a bombshell, "was fixed with the youngest daughter of the Kaelthorne family." Apart from Lord Valemire, Rosaline, Delphina and Christian, the others looked very normal since they're aware of this already.Rosaline turned slowly toward Christian, her expression is full of disbelief layered with quiet fury. "So not just a childhood sweetheart… You even have a fiancee? How many things are you hiding from me Chris?" Christian looked frightened more than confused, "Ummm... No! I... I don’t know anything about this engagement, I don't know at all." Rosaline crossed her arms, with a sneer, "You don’t know her or engagement with her?""Both, I swear I don’t have any idea about it," he insisted, "I don’t even know that family's name." "Are you sure?" Rosaline raised an eyebrow, that's when Christian remembered the contents he got to know from Ezra about that family back then which he almost forgotten until now Rosaline q
