Damian's rose novel Chapter 4

AUTHORS POV

It was 4.30  in the evening when Rose was ready to leave for the training session, she came out in the living room where jack was already standing. He looked at her and gave her a charming smile...

"You are on time, good."

Rose nodded at him and jack frowned at her dry behaviour...

"Look, I am sorry I threatened you before but please understand that Damian is my best friend and I care for him, it's nothing personal..."

Jack apologised genuinely...

"It's ok.."

Rose replied nonchalantly...

"Are you always like this, I mean silent and dry, it's rude..."

Jack asked curiously...

"I apologise if you feel like I am showing any rudeness or attitude towards you, it's my nature I can't help it..."

She again replied with impassive face...

"Ok ok, you don't have to become so formal, we are team now... And don't worry I'll make you human from robot, I want to see your beautiful smile..."

He winked at her giving her his charming smile which she totally ignored...

He huffed at her response...

"It's more difficult than I thought..."

He mumbled to himself which Rose heard very clearly but decided to ignore that too.

Damian entered the room and saw jack flirting with Rose and shook his head disappointingly. He cleared his throat to grab their attention, both of them turned towards him...

"Good evening boss..."

Rose bowed in respect in front him just like Ashton used to do...

He nodded at her and replied...

"Good evening, let's go..."

*******

They reached to the ground floor, jack showed her their private hospital and a large training ground were most of their men were already practicing...

Jack introduced her to other men, some of them looked at her with respect and admiration and some of them with lust. But no one dared to do anything stupid because the news about Rose beating 15 fighters spread like wildfire in the Knight's mansion.

Damian called Rose and gave her gun and all the necessary weapons...

During the whole training session Damian's eyes were only on Rose, he was capturing her every movement in his deep blue eyes. Her every move was calm and collective, she was perfect in whatever she was doing, excellent in everything...

But her grey eyes were awaking storm in his heart, no matter how much he tried to shook this feeling aside, it was coming back like a boomerang, he was feeling frustrated.

Jack noticed everything, after so many years he heard Isabella's name from his mouth and it was shocking for him, Damian never talked about her to anyone, always kept her memories to himself and cherished them. One of the room in his wing was filled with their photographs and memories, it was one of the reason why Damian never allowed anyone in his wing without his permission.

Jack was confused why Rose was reminding him about Isabella and he was worried about his friend.

They finished their training and went home.

Damian told them to eat dinner and he went to Isabella's room after showering.

He opened the door and entered, turning on the lights he stared in adoration at her pictures hanging on the walls, every wall of that room was filled with her and his pictures. All her teddy bears and toys, gifts he gave to her, everything was exactly in the same condition how she left it.

He walked towards the table and picked up the photo frame of 5 years old Isabella and his lips turned into soft smile. He caressed her picture lovingly, but his heart was paining.

Flashback...

A 5 year old girl was running in the garden giggling, suddenly she tripped and fell on the ground, her delicate elbows got scratched and started bleeding but she didn't cry.

"Isabella... Are you ok ?"

10 years old Damian came running towards her, picking her up he placed her on nearby garden chair....

"Are you hurt bella, is it hurting, I told you not to run..."

Damian asked her inspecting her wounds...

"No dami, it's not hurting, you know I am a strong girl..."

Isabella replied in her baby voice.

Damian chuckled at her reply...

"Yeah, yeah you are strong but a stupid girl..."

She pouted at his words.

" I hate you, you called me stupid..."

"Ok I am sorry your highness, you are smart, happy now..."

Damian kissed her chubby cheeks lovingly...

"Yes! You are so cute dami..."

She pinched his cheeks with her small fingers, giggling and said...

"Will you marry me ?"

Damian laughed at her words...

"No..."

"Why ?... I am a strong girl I will always protect you.."

She said cutely looking at him with her dove like grey eyes...

"I know you are a strong girl but you are so small, i can't marry you now..."

10 years old Damian replied looking at her cute face with adoration...

"Ohh, then when I become a big girl, will you marry me then ?"

She again asked him with hope filled eyes...

He grinned listening her words...

"Yes I will marry you, you will be my only queen..."

5 years old Isabella jumped happily in his arms after listening his words...

"Promise?..."

She asked innocently...

"Yes, I promise..."

He replied catching her quickly before she fell from the chair...

Flashback ended...
