Authors pov
Skyler saw her walking away and punched the steering wheel while cursing.
“Fuck…”
He grabbed his hair frustratingly.
He couldn’t believe that he really did that to her last night.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Last night when he lifted her shirt up to apply ointment he saw her belly. It was first time he was watching her like that. He never thought that Rosetta would have perfectly fit body, he himself is fitness freak. Skyler caressed her stomach and felt her soft flesh.
His eyes landed on her face and she looked so peaceful, sleeping like an angel. He couldn’t control himself, something in her was pulling him towards her. Skyler has started adoring her smallest things. The way she talks or answer his questions. The way she behaves, everything was attractive.
He leaned down and placed soft kiss on her belly, Rosetta stirred in her sleep when his wet lips touched her Belly button. He smiled at her response, he likes the way she responds to his touch. He placed another kiss on her belly.
He didn’t realized what he is doing, he was lost. He slowly pampered kisses on her belly and slowly travelled upward. He gently caressed her sweet spot on neck and kissed her there, leaving little red mark behind.
He pampered kisses on her neck and jaw. He looked at her plump lips and was about to taste them but his phone rang loudly.
It snapped Skyler out of his daze, he quickly scooted away from her with shocked face.
“What the fuck….”
He cursed grabbing his hair. It was like someone has spelled a magical cast on him. He was drown towards her like strong magnetic force. He felt hallucinated for a moment.
He picked up his phone and attended the call. Max was calling him out for some work.
Skyler disconnected the call and wore his shirt. He looked at Rosetta who was sleeping peacefully and shook his head.
“No, I can’t let this happen… She needs to stop, whatever she is doing to me. It’s not good…”
He said and walked out of the room.
He promised himself that he will stay away from Rosetta. This marriage is just an agreement. He doesn’t want to get attached to anyone. But he can’t deny the fact that she is making him feel different things and he doesn’t like it. It’s like she is indirectly controlling him. It was frustrating.
Skyler decided to stay away from her as much as possible. That’s why he ignored her in the morning. He thought that may be talking to her rudely will help but it seems like she doesn’t care. She doesn’t care about his behavior towards her.
He sighed and was about to head back home but he saw Rosetta knocking on the window.
He frowned and slide the window down and looked at her questioningly.
“Dad is calling you inside… He said you should come inside otherwise mom will be suspicious…”
She said with straight face. She didn’t want to invite him inside after his rude behavior.
Skyler sighed and nodded. He parked the car and got out. He wanted to deny but there was strong urge to go inside with her.
There was strong desire to hold her hand and show the world that now she belongs to him even if she doesn’t. He was low key proud that Rosetta is going to be his wife. She is strong, smart, has business skills and polite. He couldn’t find anything bad in her may be that’s why he was smitten by her.
Rosetta started walking but he held her hand, she looked at him as he intertwined his fingers with hers. Rosetta gulped as she felt tingles in her belly when he did that, his touch was so different and good. Skyler sucked in breath when he felt her soft hand in his. Her palm was too small according to his.
His lips twitched upward thinking how can she beat someone with these small tiny hands.
She pulled her hand back and he frowned at her.
“We don’t need to show this in my house… My family is not touchy type…”
She replied coldly and started walking inside.
Rosetta entered the house and her family was already in the living room.
Damian quickly stood up and walked towards her.
“How are you now?”
He checked her fever by touching her forehead.
“I told you to come home directly…”
He scolded.
“I am fine dad, it’s nothing…”
Rosetta assured.
“Yes, she is fine”
Skyler entered with smirk. He wrapped his hand around her waist and kissed her cheek, Rosetta’s eyes snapped towards him.
“I have taken good care of her, isn’t it baby?”
He smirked.
She cleared her throat and nodded awkwardly.
“Yes…”
Damian frowned at him, his eyes landed on her neck and he clenched his jaw while glaring at Skyler.
Rose looked at Skyler disappointed. She realised that Skyler tamed her bruises which wasn’t allowed. Skyler looked at her guiltily.
“Meet me in my office”
Damian said to Skyler and walked away.
Rosetta tried to pull back but he held her firmly.
“Next time be grateful when I am trying to be considerate… Otherwise I’ll do things which you won’t like. Next time I won’t hesitate to kiss somewhere else…”
He whispered to her. He didn’t like when she pulled her hand away from him.
Rosetta looked at him with confused face, she couldn’t understand why he is behaving so wierd. Few minutes ago he wasn’t ready to talk normally and now he is threatening to kiss her.
“Excuse me… I have work to do…”
Skyler let her go and she walked upstairs.
“When did you become so soft Skyler…”
Rose said.
Skyler promptly looked away from her.
“Ask your daughter… She is doing something to me…”
“You will make each other weak…”
Rose countered.
“You are still standing strong… Stronger than before actually…”
He argued back.
“There is nothing in this world which can make me weak…”
Rose Smirked.
“All the best…”
She patted his back and walked away.
Rosetta went to her room and found bouquet of red roses on coffee table.
She picked up the white letter and opened it.
Her assumption was right, it was from vlad.
‘you won’t listen to me, will you?… You will regret this decision Rosy. I won’t let this marriage happen.
Be ready for big surprise on your wedding day’
Yours Vlad.
Rosetta sighed and crumbled the paper in her fist. She turned around and almost gasped when she saw Skyler standing behind her.
