Late at night, under the dark, starry night, Venturo was lying on Adam's lap, as silent as a dove. His eyes were fixed at one place. A tear fell from his eye, travelling down towards the bridge of his nose. Adam touched him and took off his jacket, putting it on him. "You're cold, buddy". He said in a soft, gentle voice. Venturo didn't responded to what he said. After a long pause, Adam asked: "Are you in love with her?". It was like he was talking to a wall or something.. no reply. But he still continued. "Man! I've never seen anyone like this before. Now I understand how Uncle Hendrick used to be when Aunt Abigail moved out". "Sophie played a very dangerous game". Venturo finally spoke up. "She drove me away from Rosalie. I always knew she'll do something stupid. The way she looked at Rose was enough to figure that out". "Even then you did nothing". Adam said. "Look, you can't let her go like this. You spent all of your strength protecting Rosalie and all of your love loving he

Venturo followed Rosalie into her room. "Rose! I wanna talk".The maid placed the dinner on the table and left the room. Rosalie turned around and glared at him. "What do you want?". "I want you to listen to me and believe me". He said. "I did that mistake once.. I won't do it again". She crossed her arms.Venturo's breath was getting heavy. He walked at her. "LISTEN.. to me". "I don't WANT to". She stepped away. Venturo opened his mouth to say something when a ringing phone interrupted him. He checked his pockets. It wasn't his phone. His eyes widened. "Rose?". Rosalie swallowed and moved back. "DO YOU HAVE A PHONE?". He yelled angrily. "I - I don't". She felt like a deer in headlights. Venturo tried to locate the sound and went into the bathroom. "Venturo! Wait!". She followed him inside. Rosalie tried to grab his arm to stop him but he yanked it away and opened the closet. He shuffled through her clothes throwing them on the floor and finally found the phone. He realized

Later that day, Rosalie was gone out for a stroll with Natalie and Adam. She walked in between them, talking to them. "I didn't saw Eric, where is he?". Adam and Natalie exchanged glances and kept quiet. "Venturo and Eric had a big fight when he came to know that Eric and Sophie worked together to plant suspicions in your mind. That day when you saw Sophie on top of Venturo, Eric came to your room. It was done on purpose. You were feeling really down so he took the opportunity to console you and convince you that Venturo is a cheater. Venturo travelled into the past and he was furious about it. Uncle Hendrick took immediate action and banished him.. forever". Natalie told. "Wow!". Rosalie exclaimed. "So, Venturo.. is not a cheater?"."Not at all. His feelings for you are genuine". Adam responded. "I can play a game with him". She smirked. Adam and Natalie exchanged knowing looks and nodded. "We're with you". It was half past twelve in the night. Rosalie had fallen asleep in Ven

After bidding goodbye to her parents, Rosalie left the house with Adam and the box full of chocolate chip cookies Bianca baked. Adam and Rosalie enjoyed them during their ride to the hospital. "Do you want to come inside?". She asked as they parked the car in the parking lot. "I mean it's a safe place". Adam shrugged. "Plus.. we don't want these delicious cookies to be left alone, do we?". Rosalie giggled. "Okay". She stepped out. "Leave some for Venturo and Natalie". "I can't promise you". He chuckled. Rosalie closed the door and walked inside the hospital. "Yeah.. so, you have to take these medicines I prescribed regularly so the damage caused to the brain is healed. But if you don't, we'll have to opt for the surgery". Kian talked to his patient in his room. "Thank you so much, Doctor". The patient said and took the prescription slip from him. "It's my duty". Kian smiled. "Take care and don't stress too much". The patient nodded and soon, he left the room. After a while,

Rosalie was combing her hair in the room when someone knocked on the door. "Come on in, Viper". She said.But it wasn't Viper, it was Hendrick. He walked inside with a smile. Rosalie turned around. "Oh, It's you, Sire". She said. "Yeah.. how you doing?". He asked. "I'm doing great!". She moved towards him and offered him to sit down.Hendrick looked around in the room. "Venturo's room always gave me a different vibe. Some powerful vibe.. and it's yours too now"."Yes". Rosalie blushed. "I'm lucky to have him in my life". Hendrick smiled."Where were you by the way?". She questioned."I was busy doing some work.. making sure no one tries to hurt my princess again". He said, sitting down."Thank you for that". Rosalie nodded. "But the danger is not on the outside.. it's on the inside". "I'm still working on it, dear.. give me some time". He said. Rosalie gave a nod. "Tell me, won't Uncle Jonas be angry with you about what you did to both of his children?". "What? He knows very w
