Then, who are you?
Author's POV
"Ohh my god..."
Rose gasped in shock when she looked at her clothes.
"What happened ?..."
Damian asked coming out of the bathroom, he was only in a towel which was hanging low on his waist.
"What did lilly do with my night clothes..."
She picked up the red silk nightgown and frowned at it. Today she decided to change into her comfortable sweatpants and t-shirt since she has been sleeping in Damian's clothes but when she opened her suitcase which lilly packed with so much love it was filled with lingeries and sexy nightgowns.
Damian laughed looking at her reaction, her mouth was open and she was looking at these nighties like she is looking at an alien.
"Rose we came here two days ago and you are noticing it now..."
Rose looked at damian and narrowed her eyes at him.
"Yeah because we were having sex every night, you didn't let me wear anything and today you finally Decided to spare me and my vagina... So, yeah I am noticing it right now..."
She replied sarcastically still looking frustratingly at her clothes.
"Argghh.... I should have checked it before, why did I trust her with these kind of things..."
Damian chuckled at her and held her from behind, he took the nightie from her hand...
"You will look so fuckable in this..."
He teased while saying this. Rose side-eyed him and got out of his hold.
"I am not wearing this, what's the use anyway. It won't cover anything..."
She whined.
Damian chuckled.
"Ok ok fine, you don't have to wear it... Atleast not yet."
He winked at her making her frown.
"We are going out so wear the dress I ordered for you..."
He pointed towards the black box which was placed on the bed.
"Out... Where ?"
She asked looking at the box.
"It's a surprise..."
He dragged her closer and placed a kiss on her neck, biting on it.
"I don't like surprises..."
She whispered moaning at his actions.
"You will love it... Go get ready now..."
He spanked her butt and let her go.
He went to the closet to get ready and rose opened the box. It was a black coloured gown.
Rose dried and curled her hair and wore it, it was fitting her perfectly which made her think that how did Damian know her exact measurements.
She did a nude makeup and wore her heels.
Rose tied the gun and knife holster around her thighs and she was ready for the night.
Damian came out of the closet wearing his black suit. Rose looked at his handsome form and averted her eyes quickly. His sharp jawline, perfectly set hair and his deep blue eyes they were her weak point, she always gets drawn in his blue oceans eyes.
He snapped his fingers in front of his face and brought her out of her daze.
"Are you done avoiding to look at me and still thinking about me?..."
He chuckled and she blushed.
"You are looking fabulous..."
He complimented checking her out.
"Thanks... Why do you always choose black colour for me..."
She asked curiously.
"Because it's my favourite and it suits you..."
He replied pecking her lips.
"Are you not going to compliment me, come on I mean I worked hard on it..."
He asked raising his eyebrows and she chuckled.
"You always look handsome, specially in black suits, black is definitely your colour..."
She answered and he smiled giving her a forehead kiss and saying let's go.

"Wow!..."
Rose said stunned when she saw the scene in front of her. The place was full of beautiful lights, candles and flowers. It was in the middle of the garden.
He lead her towards the table and pulled out the chair for her. The table was filled with delicious food and wine.
Rose's smile widened when she noticed it's all her favourite dishes.
"Thank you..."
He smiled back and admired her smiling face.
"Anything for you baby..."
Damian held his hand for her and asked for a dance which she happily accepted.
A romantic song started playing in the background and they started swaying in each other's arms enjoying the moment.
Damian kept subtly roaming his hands on her back and curves feeling her against his body.
"It feels like a dream..."
She whispered in his neck.
"If it is then I don't want to came out of it..."
He whispered back.
After their dance they ate the dinner and now they were sitting there talking with each other.
"Rose?..."
"Hmm?..."
"Did you always wanted to became a martial art specialist?..."
He asked curiously, he wanted to know more things about her and this was the perfect time.
She shook her head.
"No, I never wanted this. No one dreams to become a killer."
He chuckled.
"Well... I did..."
"You didn't, you are doing this because of your father, because you think it's your responsibility..."
She said looking at his eyes which was looking at her amused.
"You never wanted to become a mafia boss, did you damian?..."
Damian looked at her for a moment and nodded.
"I didn't, I never wanted this. I always wished for a peaceful life with the person whom I will love, but when my mother got killed I realised that I can't live a peaceful life even if I wanted too. I knew that my father's enemies will ruin it for me too..."
The sadness in his voice showed he wasn't lying.
"I understand..."
She placed her hand on his while giving him a small smile.
"If not assassin then why did you wanted to be..."
He asked her.
"I don't know, I never thought of that..."
She shrugged.
"Since childhood Renzo kept telling me about this only so another thought never came in my mind."
"Do you regret it rose?..."
"Not really, the people I killed were not innocent they were criminals. I've never hurt someone innocent and the day i will hurt an innocent would be the day I'll regret it..."
She answered and he nodded in understanding.
"What will you do if you found your family again..."
He asked judging her expressions.
Her expression turned hateful and she smiled bitterly.
"Family?... You mean the people who abandoned me..."
Damian noticed the heaviness in her voice and it was enough to tell him that it still hurts her.
"What if they had reasons?..."
He said.
"Reasons?... I don't understand what reasons they need or what must have happened that they threw their own child away like garbage...
I don't think they will be able to justify it."
She exhaled deeply.
"I don't know about them but if I would have been In their place then I would have set the whole world on fire before letting something happen to my child..."
Damian held her hand and rubbed it gently.
"Even if they came back in my life I will never treat them as my parents, whoever they are I hate them and I will always hate them..."
The hate in her eyes told damian how strongly she hates them.
He pulled her on his lap and placed her head on his lap.
"It's ok rose, calm down..."
He cooed her.
"It hurts damian..."
Her voice broke and tears escaped from her eyes.
"You are not alone rose, I am with you baby..."
He kissed her forehead.
*****
Next day they flew back to America. Rose was sleeping on damian's lap the whole fight and he was admiring her peaceful face.
Last night he understood that even if she showed herself stronger in front of people, somewhere in she is actually broken and hurt.
Damian expressions turned hateful when he thought about who might be her parents. How can someone abandon their own child.
When they landed in America, damian got back to his work as something important came up.
He had worked the whole day and started looking for a rose when he finished his work, it was already night.
Rose was sitting on the bench outside looking at the dark sky.
'should I tell him the truth, will he accept me after that. Should I wait for him to wake up but I don't know when he will do, I can't keep Damian in the dark anymore. He needs to know the truth, he needs to know who I am. I can't imagine how he will react...'
She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't realise when damian came and stood in front of her.
"Thinking about me baby..."
He said chuckling which grabbed Her attention.
She stood up and gave him a nervous smile.
"Yes, actually I want to tell you something..."
She said scratching her neck and took hold of it and removed it.
"What is it?..."
He asked holding her hands in his.
"Damian... I was... I mean... I am..."
She stuttered not sure how to and when to start.
"You are?..."
He raised his eyebrows.
She gulped and took a deep breath.
"I am..."
Before she could complete another voice interrupted them.
"Dami..."
Damian turned towards the feminine voice and the ground beneath his feet slipped away.
The girl who was standing in front of her was an exact replica of rose. Same dark hair, grey eyes, same height, Everything was same. She was wearing a white sundress. Surrounded by the innocent aura and was looking like an angel. Her innocent face and glossy eyes was showing her vulnerable state.
She ran towards damian and hugged him tightly and damian was taken off guard. He was beyond confused.
Rose's heart almost stopped beating when she looked at that girl, her whole world turned upside down and she knew she lost her chance.
Damian pulled himself away from her hold and looked at her in shock, how can someone look like a carbon copy of his girlfriend.
"Who are you?..."
He asked in a mere whisper.
"I am isabella dami..."
She answered and tears rolled down from her eyes.
Damian's whole world started spinning in front of him. She was isabella, the girl he loved. She was standing in front of him alive, looking like a pure angel.
Damian slowly turned around looking at rose in shock and asked her
"Then who are you?..."
