TWO WEEKS LATER:"The Werewolves punished Phil and Marcus for breaking the rule and attacking that night. No one among their pack knew about it and It wasn't Alpha Marius's order. He was doing it on his own because of his enmity with.. ME". Venturo briefed his Grandfather Lawrence about all the recent events in the meeting room. "Hmm". Lawrence nodded. "How's Hendrick doing?". "Our Sire is doing very good work. None of the werewolves attacked our people and those already attacked are being assisted. We have provided new houses to them as well". Venturi told. "When will I meet Rhea?". Lawrence asked. "She has gone to the training hall.. she won't be back until noon". Venturo responded. "Okay.. then I'll rest for a while". Lawrence stood up. "Should I walk you to your room?". He asked."That'll be great, Son". He smiled at Venturo and took his hand for support. "Come on! COME ON! Show me what you've got, Lady Rhea". Adam shouted as he ran in the open field, bring chased by Rosali
FEW DAYS LATER:Rosalie was returning from the training hall when she decided to go and see Venturo. She hadn't seen him during the last couple of days. Walking towards his room, Rosalie heard him groaning. She became scared and thought something was wrong with him.Rosalie quickly opened the door, revealing a half-naked Venturo lying on the bed, with Sophie on his top, kissing him all over his face, neck and chest. Her eyes widened at the scene. She recalled a few days ago, she saw a bruise on Venturo's neck. "What is that on your neck, Venturo?". She asked worriedly. "Oh, just a bruise". Venturo shrugged, looking away. "How did you get it?". Rosalie touched his neck. "Does it matter?". He moved away. "Are you okay?". She grew suspicious. "Yes.. I'm fine. It's nothing to be worried about. Adam pinched me, that's all". He replied rudely. "That was a hickey!". Revelation dawned upon her and her eyes filled with tears. She stared at them in shock. Sophie looked back at her and
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
Later that night, Rosalie finally came back to her senses. She sat up straight and looked around. Natalie was placing clean clothes on the couch nearby. She glanced at her and smiled. "Hey, how do you feel?". "Good". She rubbed her temples. "I have a headache though". "I will bring something to eat for you". Natalie said. "Then you'll take the medicine". "Hmm". Rosalie nodded. "How long was I .. unconscious?"."All day?". Natalie looked out the window. "Yeah.. it's ten in the evening now". Rosalie nodded. "I don't know what happened to me". "The doctor said you were having sleepless nights and depression". She walked at her and sat on the edge of the bed. "I'm glad you're okay now".Rosalie gave a nod. "Can I use the bathroom?". "Sure, go ahead..". Natalie smiled at her. Rosalie got up and walked into the bathroom. She washed up and came back, taking slow steps. "It hurts like hangovers". She groaned."Do you wanna go out, get some fresh air?". Natalie questioned. "No.. I'm
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
"No, no, no!". He cried out loud, placing Rosalie's head on his lap. "Please, don't leave me!".The commotion in the house behind him seemed to die down as he sat outside, cradling her. "Rose, you can't leave me alone like this". He said. Looking up at the sky, he spotted the full moon, bright and huge. Tears were continuously trickling down on his cheeks. Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind. He looked down at Rosalie and touched her body. It was still warm. Placing her head gently back on the ground, he leaned forwards as his fangs grew out. "There's no way I'll let you die like this". He then closed his eyes and bit her on her neck, his fangs piercing through her sensitive skin. HALF AN HOUR LATER:Venturo was sitting on a secluded corner, Rosalie's head in his lap. His white clothes were stained with her blood. His head was resting back on the cold wall. Staring into the dark, he caressed her forehead with one hand. Adam, Sarah, Eric and Vlad came running out of the mansio
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
Rosalie washed up and walked downstairs to join everyone else in the living room next morning. She smiled at everyone and greeted them. "Morning!". "Looks like someone's in a really good mood". Adam said. "Do you want me to switch to my actual self?". She cocked her eyebrow. "Definitely no!". Natalie smacked Adam to stop talking. "Are you insane? She finally started acting like the part of our family". "I was just surprised!". Adam replied. Sarah smiled at Rosalie. "Come here and sit down, Rhea". She offered. Rosalie nodded and sat beside Venturo on the couch, eyeing him with a grin. "I wanted to ask, why did you guys named me Rhea?". "And she likes the name too now! Can I worship you, Venturo? This is all because of you!". Adam said. "Stop it!". Natalie was still scared that Rosalie's attitude will change. "Don't worry, Natalie.. I'm not gonna change now". She said. "Rhea is the name of one of Saturn's moon, dear". Vladimir told. "Hendrick's selenophile so he named you that
