His Little FLOWER novel Chapter 26

ROSE POV:

Blood gushed with sickening determination from everyone's flesh in violent jets of red. I closed my eyes to not see them but I could heed to their screams of pain.

The screams are getting louder & louder that I couldn't bear until I awoke to the sound of a familiar voice calling my name, "Flower, wake up".

Following the voice, my eyes snapped open to be locked with ferr's. In those deep brown eyes was the warmth of an everlasting hearth.

I let out a sigh of relief whilst smiled at him assuring him that it's just a bad dream. I know that I'm safe & I will be Always. I looked at my wrist to notice the duct tapes have been removed.

I kept staring into those brown eyes, his eyes were so gloomy burning with guilt, I could see it that's why he is silent. "Don't you have nothing to say?", I broke the silence between us as I noticed he is standing on his knees.

"Come here", I moved off making space for him as he lied beside me pulling me closer to him making our forehead touch against each other.

Caressing his face, I nudged his nose playfully earning a faint smile as his response. I longed to touch him never in a sexual way, never anywhere other than his face. When they captured me, all my thoughts were about only him.

It's really funny as all I wanted is to see his face at least once before I die when I was scared to death.

"I am sorry", he whispered against my lips, even if it's not his fault.

"You asked already & it got nothing to do with you because it's not your fault. It's my fault that I got fooled", I said, as it's obvious. I feel into their trick.

"That's not true, you acted in that way because you love me", he replied, I smiled at him only to fade away when I remembered Andrew.

"How is he?", I sat up like a flash, my heart is hammering hard whilst my mind replayed how ruthlessly they attacked him.

"He is fine now", he said pulling me back to the same position. That soothed my mind.

Thank God!

"Really? He is fine now, he lost so much blood-", before I could finish he beat me to it saying, "They nearly lost him in surgery but now he is completely fine. Out of danger".

Lost him...

Those words made me feel as if my bones have no more strength and my muscles are all out of power making me remember all once again. Today many lost their lives & it's because of me.

"Flower, why are you crying?", his words brought back my senses as he wiped my tears off from my cheeks. I sat up shaking my head telling him that I am fine but still I can't bottle up my emotions anymore as I sobbed into my hands & the tears dripped between my fingers.

He made me sit on his lap pulling my hands off from covering my face but I didn't meet his face as I hid my face on his neck as he kept on saying, "Everything is gonna be ok", as well as brushing my tears away. I cried until no more tears came, but still, guilty remained.

I was still in the same position with my face buried on his neck until he lifted my chin with a curled index finger & forced me to meet his solemn gaze.

"My Little FLOWER, I can't see you like this. Is it because of me? Did I hurt you in any way?", he asked apologetically with a guilt-filled face.

I shook my head saying, "No, it's all my fault. T...they-", I stuttered as he rubs my back, I gulped audibly my sobs before continuing to say further.

"They all died, it's all because of me. If only I stayed here as you told me, all would be fine now. I would be safe at home & they wouldn't have to die like this. I feel horrible lik-", I cried out before I could say further he shushed me as I looked upon him.

"It's not your fault. If someone has to feel guilty here, it should be me. It's my fault that I can't able to protect you. It's all My fault from the very start.", he said looking into my eyes when I didn't say anything he continued further.

"Those who are all died not innocent ones. We are all same in the Mafia business, never hesitate to kill. Sometimes even if they are innocent. That is how this works & you got nothing to do with this. Not now, not ever", he said, for a second I felt scared of his words as once again fear found me.

"Sorry for scaring you, but this is the truth, you got nothing to do with this. Do you understand?", he asked, stroking my face with his rough knuckles waiting for my reply for which I gave him a nod.

"Ok, go & get fresh. I will get you the food, you must be hungry.", he said, I nodded again not even uttering a word feeling overwhelmed by everything.

I got down from his lap making my way to the washroom as my mind is saying, "Whatever he is doing is dangerous. He said we are all same in this business. It means the same thing that happened to those men's may happen to him tom-".

I shook my head hard, "No... No... No. I should not think like this. He will be with me always. No one can take him away from me. No one." I assured myself.

I should talk about this to him, this lifestyle is dangerous & his life will be at stake always. Anything can happen at any time no matter how many are there to protect him.

After getting fresh & changing my clothes, I relaxed on the bed. Looking at the nearby table, I noticed My handbag & phone.

Wait! I kept my bag & phone in the office room. Maybe, ferr might have told someone to bring it back.

So, why bother? I shrugged off...

Swiping my phone on, I saw around 20 missed calls from My granny. Oh, God! They might have gotten scared by now.

Without wasting a moment I called back. Granny picked up the call in the first ring itself, "Rose, where were you? Jesus, are you ok?", she asked in a panicked way, as I thought.

"Gra..Granny, I am fine. There was a meeting in the office all of a sudden. So, I... I got no choice but to put my phone in silence", I lied, because getting kidnapped by someone, worse than that nearly getting closer to lose my hands is not some good news to share happily.

She let out a sigh in relief, "Ok, dear. I could understand. It seems like I took it too far. You know that you are still our little girl". I let out a small laugh, "I know, granny".

"How is grandpa? Are you guys enjoying it? Did you guys used the money which I have transferred to your account?", I asked, it's been a long journey for them besides I sent my one-month paycheck for them to use.

A small wish of mine, that they have to use My money because it's always me who used their money.

Apart from that paycheck, to be honest I didn't work. The next month, I was in the hospital with ferr, as he was in a coma & today I went to the office only to get kidnapped.

But, my bank balance says a different story, since ferr deposited money in my account in the name of salary for the previous month also for this month in advance & it's freaking high. I can't earn that much high even if I work till I die.

So, I did a simple thing. I ignored the existence of that account, now using another account of mine which he has no idea about.

I don't mind him spending his money for me sometimes but on the other hand, no matter how rich he is, I want to be financially independent always.

"We used them, dear, since it's your small wish. About enjoyment, we had a good time here but the fun is over. Guess what? We are coming home tomorrow", she squealed in joy, leaving me in utter shock.6

I could hear grandpa's voice, "Five minutes ago you said to keep it as a surprise". I laughed out, she is not good at this.

"Tomorrow? That's great & you're telling me that now. That's not fair, Granny", I whined in disagreement, but still, I am happy about their return. I missed them ao much because we have never spent time apart like this.

"Sorry, baby. We thought to keep it as a surprise. But I can't control myself. Anyways, come to our home tomorrow along with your Man...", she whispered the ending word in a teasing way.

"We want to meet him & want to know whether the guy you are in love with is a good man or some criminal", my eyes widened in impact when she said, criminal.

"Cri...Criminal", I stuttered as sweat started to form on my forehead.

She laughed out, "I was just kidding. We will be waiting for you both. I am giving the phone to your Grandpa, he wants to talk". I mumbled out, "ok".

After talking with grandpa for a while, I hung up the call. Since they have to pack their things.

I am happy that I'm gonna see them tomorrow after a long time that is after two months. On the other hand, I don't know if I should tell them about Ferr's real identity. Of course, he is A Businessman, everyone knows but his other side?
