Old memories!
Author's POV
It was 4.30 in the evening when Rose was ready to leave for the training session, she came out in the living room where jack was already standing. He looked at her and gave her a charming smile...
"You are on time, good."
Rose nodded at him and jack frowned at her dry behaviour...
"Look, I am sorry I threatened you before but please understand that Damian is my best friend and I care for him, it's nothing personal..."
Jack apologised genuinely...
"It's ok.."
Rose replied nonchalantly...
"Are you always like this, I mean silent and dry, it's rude..."
Jack asked curiously...
"I apologise if you feel like I am showing any rudeness or attitude towards you, it's my nature I can't help it..."
She again replied with impassive face...
"Ok ok, you don't have to become so formal, we are team now... And don't worry I'll make you human from robot, I want to see your beautiful smile..."
He winked at her giving her his charming smile which she totally ignored...
He huffed at her response...
"It's more difficult than I thought..."
He mumbled to himself which Rose heard very clearly but decided to ignore that too.
Damian entered the room and saw jack flirting with Rose and shook his head disappointingly. He cleared his throat to grab their attention, both of them turned towards him...
"Good evening boss..."
Rose bowed in respect in front him just like Ashton used to do...
He nodded at her and replied...
"Good evening, let's go..."
*******
They reached to the ground floor, jack showed her their private hospital and a large training ground were most of their men were already practicing...
Jack introduced her to other men, some of them looked at her with respect and admiration and some of them with lust. But no one dared to do anything stupid because the news about Rose beating 15 fighters spread like wildfire in the Knight's mansion.
Damian called Rose and gave her gun and all the necessary weapons...
During the whole training session Damian's eyes were only on Rose, he was capturing her every movement in his deep blue eyes. Her every move was calm and collective, she was perfect in whatever she was doing, excellent in everything...
But her grey eyes were awaking storm in his heart, no matter how much he tried to shook this feeling aside, it was coming back like a boomerang, he was feeling frustrated.
Jack noticed everything, after so many years he heard Isabella's name from his mouth and it was shocking for him, Damian never talked about her to anyone, always kept her memories to himself and cherished them. One of the room in his wing was filled with their photographs and memories, it was one of the reason why Damian never allowed anyone in his wing without his permission.
Jack was confused why Rose was reminding him about Isabella and he was worried about his friend.
They finished their training and went home.
Damian told them to eat dinner and he went to Isabella's room after showering.
He opened the door and entered, turning on the lights he stared in adoration at her pictures hanging on the walls, every wall of that room was filled with her and his pictures. All her teddy bears and toys, gifts he gave to her, everything was exactly in the same condition how she left it.
He walked towards the table and picked up the photo frame of 5 years old Isabella and his lips turned into soft smile. He caressed her picture lovingly, but his heart was paining.
Flashback...
A 5 year old girl was running in the garden giggling, suddenly she tripped and fell on the ground, her delicate elbows got scratched and started bleeding but she didn't cry.
"Isabella... Are you ok ?"
10 years old Damian came running towards her, picking her up he placed her on nearby garden chair....
"Are you hurt bella, is it hurting, I told you not to run..."
Damian asked her inspecting her wounds...
"No dami, it's not hurting, you know I am a strong girl..."
Isabella replied in her baby voice.
Damian chuckled at her reply...
"Yeah, yeah you are strong but a stupid girl..."
She pouted at his words.
" I hate you, you called me stupid..."
"Ok I am sorry your highness, you are smart, happy now..."
Damian kissed her chubby cheeks lovingly...
"Yes! You are so cute dami..."
She pinched his cheeks with her small fingers, giggling and said...
"Will you marry me ?"
Damian laughed at her words...
"No..."
"Why ?... I am a strong girl I will always protect you.."
She said cutely looking at him with her dove like grey eyes...
"I know you are a strong girl but you are so small, i can't marry you now..."
10 years old Damian replied looking at her cute face with adoration...
"Ohh, then when I become a big girl, will you marry me then ?"
She again asked him with hope filled eyes...
He grinned listening her words...
"Yes I will marry you, you will be my only queen..."
5 years old Isabella jumped happily in his arms after listening his words...
"Promise?..."
She asked innocently...
"Yes, I promise..."
He replied catching her quickly before she fell from the chair...
Flashback ended...
"I miss you, bella..."
Damian whispered kissing her photo....
********
After her morning exercise Rose went to the kitchen to make herself a coffee. Two young maids were already preparing breakfast there when they saw Rose in her gym outfit their mouth hung opened looking at her sexy fit body.
"Do you need anything Miss?..."
One cute blonde maid asked her shyly.
"Nothing, I'll help myself, you please continue..."
Rose replied and head towards the coffee machine, she made herself a coffee and left...
A young maid named Emily was continuously staring at her body lustfully....
Another maid named Maisy elbowed her...
"Stop drooling you horny bitch, she is boss's new bodyguard..."
"I know, but she is so hot omg, do you think I have a chance..."
Emily chirped excitingly...
"She is not lesbian you stupid, And even if she is why would she chose your ugly ass, now let's get back to work..."
Maisy tried to knock some sense in her stupid mind ...
************
Everyone was sitting at the dinning table waiting for Damian to come down for breakfast...
"Hii I am Lilly, you are Rose, right?... New bodyguard?..."
Lilly said giving Rose a toothy smile...
"Yes..."
Rose replied in her usual tone...
"Nice to meet you Rose, finally we have another girl in our team, I was getting bored with these boring men..."
Lilly said indirectly pointing towards jack....
"Nice to meet you too..."
Rose replied back..
Jack let out a mocking chuckle when Lilly got the same dry reply from Rose...
"Overexcited soul..."
He mocked Lilly...
"Annoying ass..."
Lilly spat back...
Rose looked at them with raised eyebrows...
" Don't mind her beautiful, she is always this irritating..."
Jack said to Rose winking and Lilly rolled her eyes at him...
Damian came and sat down on the headchair, Rose was sitting on his left side and others on right side...
Emily placed their breakfasts in front of them stealing glances at Rose which Damian noticed, he knew that Emily is a lesbian, he looked at Rose curiously, if she is giving any kind of response or hints to Emily but found nothing, Rose was silently eating her breakfast. A strange kind of wave of relief ran in his body after knowing that she is not a lesbian.
All of them finished their breakfast silently...
*****
They were in the basement, Damian was standing in front of a man who was hanging in front him covered in his own blood, Rose and jack standing behind him with 2 other men...
Damian was looking dangerously calm, his hands covered in blood and veins of his muscular arms were popping out due to his rolled up sleeves, he again sliced one of his finger making him scream in agony.
"I won't repeat myself, Where is my drugs?..."
He asked in dangerously threatening voice...
"O...ok, ok I'll tell you please, I hid them in the basement of my house, p.. please boss p.. please don't kill me, I am sorry...."
He was crying and begging in front of him...
"You knew how much I hate betrayers still you choose that way, now pay for it..."
His voice was hard and threatening....
He stabbed the dagger in his heart making blood splatter on his black shirt and on the floor...
"Clean this shit..."
He ordered his men, wiping the dagger with his handkerchief, men hurriedly came forward listening his hard voice...
He turned around and looked at the Rose who was standing there with straight face beside jack.
All her focus was on the men who were picking up the deadbody...
"Hey you, stop..."
She suddenly said to one of his man and Damian looked at her confused...
"What's your name..."
She asked walking towards that man, he gulped in fear...
She stood in front of him, that man tried to push her and ran outside the basement but Rose quickly grabbed his collar, turning him around she hit his face with the back of her gun and he fell on the ground with loud thud.
"He is a spy, he has hidden camera on his shirts button..."
She said and jack rushed towards him to grab him before he could do anything else, that man looked at Damian's furious face and realised he will face hell now. He was beyond scared. He quickly took out his gun from the waistband, as soon as he took out his gun Rose quickly stood between him and Damian working as a shield but before jack was able to snatch his gun he shot himself in the head...
Everything happened so quickly that no one got the chance to stop him, on the other hand Damian was admiring the girl who was standing in front of him like his shield, She could have got shot but without thinking for a second she stood in front him, his heart fluttered at her actions.
"Shit, he was our best chance to catch that attacker. Fucking pussy killed himself..."
Jack's voice brought Damian out from his trance.
**********
" We are attending a party tonight, Lilly will help you to get ready, you are coming with me as my Escort."
Damian said in his usual cold tone.
"Okay boss..."
Rose replied in monotone....
"Ok, let's go we have so many things to do..."
Lilly said excitingly and dragged Rose out of his office...
