Chapter 44: 44) Say you are mine !

Authors pov

"Come fast okay?"

Damian pecked her lips and let her get out of his hold. she gave him a nod.

"I still don't want to use your card for shopping..."

She tried to speak, her voice was filled with hesitation.

He cocked his head aside and bit his inner cheeks.

"See, I gave you two options... First take it and do the shopping as per your liking, otherwise I'll order everything here as per my choice and let me tell you I have wild fantasies about seeing you in different kind of clothes..."

He stated giving her an arrogant smirk.

"So choice is yours, baby..."

Rose looked at him blankly making him chuckle, he knew she only looks at him blankly when she wants to give some sassy reply but she controlled herself. She never talks back to him like she does with others and he couldn't understand why.

She thought for a moment and scratched her neck, her second habit she scratches her neck whenever she becomes nervous. These are the things he noticed so far.

"So it's the first one I guess..."

She gave him a tight smile.

"Smart..."

He winked smirking.

"I don't think so..."

She mumbled and left his office.

"Look, this one..."

Lilly showed her a black coloured dress, and Rose nodded in approval. "Try it..."

Lilly handed her the dress.

"I am tired Lilly, I feel like this is the millionth time I am changing..."

Rose whined, she looked at their shopping bags and sat on the sofa. "Come on Rose, this is the last one..."

Lilly made her stand up and pushed her inside the changing room.

'girls die for things like this and look at this girl... Why is she so different...' Lilly mumbled behind her.

Rose came out of the changing and handed Lilly the dress.

"It's perfect..."

"Good..."

Lilly picked up half of the bags and Rose picked the remaining.

When Lilly was paying for it Rose's face turned into disapproval.

"Come on Rose, you don't have to think about it so much. He just wants to take good care of you."

Lilly said exiting the shop and Rose followed her.

"I know, but still it doesn't feel right..."

Lilly shook her head chuckling.

"Keep your ethics and morals aside Rose. Money is nothing for boss, the money you have spent right now is like you are taking few drops of water away from the ocean..."

Rose gave her a nod and finished the conversation.

"Okay, last but not the least..."

Lilly's naughty tone grabbed Rose's attention and she saw her entering Victoria secret.

Rose was about to follow her behind but her phone rang...

"Lilly I have to attend this..."

Lilly nodded at her.

"Tell me your size I'll buy it for you..."

Rose told Lilly her size. Lilly's choice was good so she had no problem in Lilly buying her that.

Rose received the call and stood outside the shop while Lilly was doing lingerie shopping for her. She choose all kinds of sexy, too revealing and kinky type of sets. She mentally thanked God that Rose got busy with the phone call otherwise she wouldn't have allowed her to buy this.

She quickly paid for it and got out of the store before Rose came in.

"You done..."

Lilly said giving her an innocent smile, Rose disconnected the call and turned towards her.

"You were quite quick, what did you buy?"

Rose asked curiously and tried to take the bags from her hands but Lilly pulled away.

"You can see it at home, I am damn hungry let's go eat something..."

Lilly hurriedly walked towards the exit and Rose followed her behind not paying much attention to her weird behaviour.

They kept all their bags in the car and made their way to a diner.

"Hey Rose isn't that the same boy, you met at the club..."

Lilly asked pointing towards the blonde boy with whom Rose danced in the club.

Rose followed the direction of her eyes and saw Mike sitting on another table with his friends.

"Yeah, Mike... Poor boy almost got killed because of that stupid dare..."

Rose said making Lilly look at him in pity.

Their food arrived and both of them digged in quickly.

"Hey, Mike... Isn't that the same girl who asked you for the dance last night..."

Mike's friend said looking at Rose.

Mike looked at her and a big smile appeared on his face.

"Yeah, she is... Damn she looks so beautiful even without makeup..."

"Why don't you ask her out..."

Another friend suggested.

"What no man, last night I was on gun point... I don't know who was he but he was really scary..."

Mike shivered at the memory.

"What, you are such a looser Mike, instead of defending that girl you ran away, stupid... That's why you are single and look at her she is so hot anyone could kill for her, even I..."

His friend checked her up and down with a smirk on his face.

"Should I ask her again..."

Mike asked his friends and all of them gave him a thumbs up and encouraged him.

Rose and Lilly finished their food and walked outside, it was almost evening and the sun has already started to set down.

Rose turned around when she heard someone calling her name.

It was Mike.

"Hey, Rose..."

He said shyly.

"Hello Mike..."

Rose replied with a small smile.

"Are you ok, I mean last night whatever happened. I shouldn't have left you like that I am sorry. He didn't do anything to you right ?..."

Rose raised her eyebrows at his concerned voice and shook her head negatively.

"No he didn't..."

"Well actually I wanted to ask you out, I mean I wanted to do that last night too but I couldn't...

So do I still have any chances..."

He asked nervously scratching the back of his neck.

Lilly's eyes widened at his words...

'why is he digging his own grave, stupid boy. Boss will skin him alive...'

"See Mike, I am really sorry I can't... Last night I approached you because I got a dare that's it. And you should stay away from me for your own sake... I don't want to get you in any trouble..." Rose replied straightforward in her usual cold tone breaking Mike's heart.

"Ohh, I see... I thought you were interested in me..."

He gave her a sad smile.

"Still we can be a friends, right... I hope you don't mind, actually my friends already consider me as a looser, you know I am kind of..."

He just trailed off.

Rose and Lilly looked at each other.

"Poor guy, he is so cute..."

Lilly said, Rose thought for a moment and exchanged her number with him.

Thinking it's nothing big just a number, Mike almost jumped in excitement when he got her number.

Rose observed his behavior and understood that he is just a teenager more like a immature kid.

All of them walked towards the parking lot and Mike introduced his friends with rose and Lilly.

"Hey can we get your number too, baby..."

Rose turned towards the source of cheesy comment and saw 5 men standing in front of them. By their clothes and appearance it was clear that they are bad news.

"No..."

Rose replied in her cold tone.

"Looks like i need to take it by myself..."

One of them said flashing his yellow teeth.

"Hey, leave the girls alone..."

Mike stood in front of Rose making her look at him amusingly.

"Fuck off kid..."

That man took out a knife and pointed towards Mike. Mike gulped hard and stepped back. Rose shook her head.

"Mike go and stand in the corner along with your friends. Lilly you too..."

Rose ordered them and Lilly quickly nodded.

"But they have knives rose..."

Mike said.

"Listen boy, shut up and go with lilly..."

Rose scolded him like she do to her students, Mike was taken aback by her response so lilly grabbed his jacket and dragged him to the corner and his 2 friends followed them.

"Why? Are you afraid that we will break their bones..."

One of the man mocked when rose made them stand away from the scene.

"No I am afraid that I'll break yours..."

She replied with the same sarcasm.

"Who are you and what do you want? If you are here just because you are bored then I suggest you to back off, it won't end up good..."

She warned them but they started laughing.

"We will see baby..."

He came forward and tried to hold her hand but she grabbed his hand in a tight grip and twisted it, spinning him around she smashed his head on the car window, broken glasses pierced in his whole face and

he started screaming when it set his face on fire.

"Fuck, she is fab man..."

Mike's friend said with dropped jaw.

"Tell me about it..."

Lilly replied leaning against the wall, enjoying the show while chewing gum.

"Who is she?"

Mike asked shocked.

"Don't tell me you don't know..."

Lilly asked in disbelief, and 3 of them shook their heads negatively.

"You know Damian knight?..."

She asked rolling her eyes at their dumbness.

"Yeah I know..."

One of them answered while other the two were still unaware of it.

"He is The Mafia boss and a very dangerous man..."

"Yeah, so baby the man who pointed his gun to you last night was Damian knight, because you were dancing with his girlfriend."

Mike's heart almost stopped beating when he heard her words.

He looked at rose who was beating the men mercilessly and gulped harder.

"S.. she is..."

"Yeah she is his bodyguard plus girlfriend... And for your sake stay away from her otherwise Damian will kill all of you."

Lilly warned them and they started shaking in fear.

Lilly told them to leave and they quickly left the place.

Rose beat the men and only one was remaining. She thought it would be too easy to take them down but to her surprise they were martial arts specialist too. So it took longer than necessary to do it.

The last man tried to attack her but she stopped him.

"I am giving you two choices, first take them to the hospital and second join them in the hospital..."

He looked at her confused...

"What's the difference?..."

"It means she will beat you in pulp and you will end in the hospital like your good for nothing friends that was the second option, and first was to be a smart human being and don't fight with her..."

Lilly explained in a 'duh' tone rolling her eyes at him.

"Then the First one I guess..."

He said nervously, looking at his friends who were lying on the ground moaning in pain.

"Smart... Leave before I change my mind..."

Her words were enough for him to leave with his friends.

"Damn, why did this happened so out of the blue. I mean it doesn't make any sense. Why were they messing with us..."

Lilly asked confused while placing some money in the car whose window got broken.

"They looked like some roadside goons, I don't think they need any reason to do things like this..."

Rose opened the car door and got in.

"Yeah probably..."

Lilly sighed.

"Don't tell damian about it, he will get worried for no reason..."

Rose said taking her car out of the parking lot.

She drove towards the mansion.

"God, I am so tired... Shopping is a difficult task..."

Lilly got out of the car and stretched her limbs.

Rose chuckled at her overdramatic words.

Rose's phone rang and it was Ashton. She answered it and her face quickly turned into a shocked one.

"What? I am coming..."

She disconnected the call and ran inside the mansion.

"Hey what happened?..."

Lilly yelled behind her but rose disappeared behind the Door.

Rose ran towards the basement, damian was about to shoot someone but rose quickly snatched the gun from his hand and stood in front of him gasping for air.

Damian clenched his jaw and glared at her, she looked at her surroundings and she was beyond shocked looking at the scene in front of her.

All those men whom she beat was lying dead in the corner like some trash, blood was flowing from their body as they were shot dead.

How did they get here, she fought with them an hour ago, it was very confusing for her.

A muffled cry grabbed her attention and she looked at the boy who was crying on the floor.

"Mike..."

She whispered.

"Jack tie that boy to the chair and waterboard him..."

Damian ordered jack and he grabbed the boy.

"No... Damian you can't do this to him..."

Rose held damian's hand and pleaded him.

Damian grabbed the back of her neck and brought her face closer to his...

"You think he will try to hit on my girl and I will let him go, I don't give second chances to anyone baby..."

Damian whispered with gritted jaw, his eyes were red in anger.

Jack made Mike sit on the chair and he started begging.

"Please sir, I had no idea about it please... I am sorry..."

Rose's heart broke looking at that innocent kid. "Jack, if you touch him I will skin you alive, I swear..."

She growled at jack and he quickly got away from the boy.

Damian's grip on her neck tightened but she stood in front of him unaffected.

"Damian please, he is innocent... He didn't do anything."

She cupped his face and tried to made him understand.

"Innocent ?"

He scoffed.

"Please don't do this to him, he is just a kid. Look at him, you can't punish him for his silly mistakes. And I told you it was not his fault I approached him because Olivia gave me a dare, it's not his fault."

She pleaded but damian didn't answered he kept looking at her silently with a straight face.

So she continued.

"We don't kill innocents Damian, he is not a criminal. He doesn't deserve this. I will never forgive myself if he gets killed because of my mistakes... Please let him go, please..."

"He tried to hit on you... You thought I won't find out if you won't tell me anything. Have you forgotten that cars has cameras too and fuck the cameras you thought I will let you go out without security, Jacob and

max were following you the whole day..."

He spat madly at her and she looked at him in disbelief. He told his men to keep an eye on her, she wanted to snap at him but not now she needs to calm him down otherwise Mike will pay with his life.

"I said that because I knew you will get worried, trust me. I know you care about me damian, my life is precious to you. Please try to understand we can't kill this boy, just imagine what his mother will do when

she will see his lifeless body. He has a long life ahead of him, he is too young for all this things and to understand what is wrong and right, damian..."

She placed her forehead on his...

Damian released a big defeated sigh and glared at the boy who was shaking and on the verge of fainting in fear.

"Fine..."

He replied annoyingly and rose breathed in relief.

Jack untied Mike and let him go.

Damian grabbed her hand and took her to his bedroom.

"Why did you gave him your number?"

He glared at her.

"So what if I did, it's not like I was..."

Before she completed her sentence he pinned her against the wall.

"I don't care, rose... I can't see you with other men even if it's a teenage boy... I fucking can't, you are mine, only mine..."

He growled and banged his fist on the wall. She was looking at him with wide eyes as the Damian she was looking at was totally different from the damian she knew, he was behaving like a possessed man.

His eyes were telling Everything and it was scaring her.

He cupped her face...

"Tell me you are mine angel, tell me you belong to me..."

His voice sounded Obsessed, rose couldn't understand how to handle this situation, she knew if she said something it will get worst so she decided to go with the flow.

"Yes I am yours, damian..."

She replied looking in his eyes...

"Yes only mine..."

With that he crashed his lips on her's in a possessive kiss.

This time she realised that it's not the beginning they have crossed that phase a long time ago. He was ready to cross all the limits for her.
