Knight Heritage, Italy

8:30 p.m.

"How can I wear such a dress?"

Rosaline mumbled while eyeing the gown which was sprawled all over the bed like a king. The diamonds and glitters that were embroidered on it were mocking her timidity.

After the fight with Xavier, Rosaline immediately left his room as she was in no mood of hearing any of his pathetic excuses. The next day she avoided him like a plague but surprisingly Xavier also didn't bother her. She hasn’t heard about him since morning and she thanked the Lord for it as she didn't even want too.

Rosaline was in a huge turmoil. She knew no matter how hard she tries to push her naivety away and pull up the bold move but she herself know that she would never be able to do so. The plunging neckline and long thigh slit were jeering at her and the more she looks at them the more she wants to burn this damn revealing dress. She had never tried such sexy and gaudy clothes ever in her life. There was only an hour left for the ball and she was still mulling over the fact how to even touch this dress.

Rosaline had just taken a shower and was draped in only a bath towel. She didn't even care to wipe herself off as she was so pissed about the fact that she had to wear this detestable dress. The chilled breeze of the air conditioner was pricking her soft skin like needles but the apprehension of getting dressed up in this extraneous sexy gown was making her number than those frosty winds.

Helplessness and anxiety took a toll over her brain raging her emotions. Her chin started wobbling. Her eyes turned red as she glared the gown fiercely.

"Forget it, I won't wear it. I can't wear it. I will never wear it."

She spat with clenched teeth and burst into tears.

"I won't wear it. I...I can't- Mom!!"

She sobbed while covering her face with her palms. Her body raked with every sob as she started crying like a child. Her skin turned pale because of being exposed in the cold for so long and that made her cry more.

Rosaline was feeling too broken, wretched, helpless and most importantly the pain of loneliness was hollowing her from inside. Antonio, Emily and Jennie's threats started ringing in her ears that made her feel more scared and helpless.

No matter how tough you try to show yourself in front of others but sometimes you need someone to rely on, you need a shoulder to cry on. Everyone wronged her and casted her aside like a trash. They called her filthy, despicable and when they couldn't get enough, they called her a slut.

People say that you should close your ears when someone badmouth about you, shut your eyes when they throw hateful glares at you, seal your lips when they shower you with profanities, walk out when they mock you along with others but no one ever told what should you do when you're alone? How to stop yourself from overthinking, how to control your emotions when you feel your heart heavy? When you feel dejected, abandoned, forlorn, lonely? The answer to it is cry.

Cry till your eyes turn dry, till you're left with no tears, break the walls that are wrapped around your heart and pull out the daggers that had pierced into it by such obnoxious words. Shatter the hopes of lies that you have given to yourself. Rosaline did the same, she pulled out the same strategy every time but was she really immune to all the hatred that was thrown on her?

The answer is a big NO because even though she pulled out those knives that were stabbed in her heart, the scars were still there, fresh and weren't willing to heal. Still no one ever realized how badly they had trampled on her heart and dignity and the sad thing about it is that they are still not remorseful about their cruel deeds.

"I..I don't want to l-live anymore *sob* I am tired....I can't do this anymore *sob* There's nothing l-left in my life. I am trapped*sob* caged *sob* shattered. There's no purpose of my life any more..I can't bear more hatred*sob* I can't take all this insults..*hiccup*...I am tired *sob* I want to die"

Her heart wrenching sobs resonated inside the four walls of the room as she cried her heart out.

Rosaline jumped in fear when all of a sudden, she felt a heavy muscular arm around her waist. She looked down but got startled when she felt something soft on her left shoulder making her heart race.

"Then take me with you"

A familiar scent of a male cologne wafted in the room and got mixed with the air around her that unknowingly calmed her down.

'Xavier'

Xavier had been sulking since last night. Their previous encounter didn't go well as he ruined everything again. But Rosaline's constant denial in calling herself as his turned him livid. He hurt his precious Rosebud unconsciously but her words left him only to drown in guilt and grief. That's why he distanced himself from her.

While Xavier was dawdling in his room, her words kept ringing in his ears making him go crazy. He decided to pay her a visit so as to make sure she is alright.

As soon he reached there, he heard sniffs and whimpers from the other end. Xavier didn't waste a second and opened the door with the master key. He always kept an extra key of Rosaline's room with him as he always used to visit her at night and leave at dawn like a creepy stalker. He can't even stay a single second away from her then how can he let go of that chance when they both are living under the same roof? Xavier knew it very well that Rosaline was toxic for him but she was like a potent drug which he needed the most for his survival.

When he entered the room, his eyes landed on Rosaline whose flawless back was facing him while her Goddess like figure was cloaked in a white towel. Her complexion was already snow white and that bath towel was only adding to her beauty. Her hair was tied in a messy bun, few strands of her hair were dangling from it kissing her shoulders. Her thin, pale legs were on display making him gulp down his drool. He felt his pants tightened watching the ethereal beauty.

An evil smirk crept on his face watching the most exotic scene in front of his eyes. Xavier quietly closed the door and locked it. He walked towards her with slow steps eyeing his wife's angelic figure with hungry eyes. But her words snatched the ground beneath his feet. He stood frozen while tears pooled in his eyes as he saw her crying loudly like a broken soul. He couldn't see her in pain anymore.

Xavier immediately engulfed Rosaline in his arms and rested his chin on her left shoulder.

"Then take me with you love. There will be no meaning of my life too if you leave me."

He whispered hoarsely while coiling his other arm around her waist as he flushed her petite frame to his toned, rock-hard chest.

"W-What are you-Hah!!"

A mewl escaped her lips when Xavier planted a soft kiss on her shoulder, sucking it softly to leave his mark. Her figure was lush from the steam and the water droplets that were sticking on her body were making her skin look more flawless and divine, craving him to touch them. Xavier started peppering feathery kisses all along her shoulders, collarbone and neck, sucking them occasionally marking his territory. Rosaline was trembling in his hold terribly trying to get away from him but her strength was nothing as compared to that brawny stalwart.

A soft moan escaped her lips when Xavier slightly took her skin between his teeth and give it a rough suck. After painting her slender neck with purplish hickies, he started rolling his warm tongue all over them so as to soothe the pain that were caused by his harsh, rough kisses. Rosaline shut her eyes tightly as she wasn't able to bear it anymore. She was shivering a lot but this time it was not because of cold but because of his sinful torture. Her mind turned blank; she was in complete daze. But still her palpitating heart automatically calmed down after feeling his touch. It made her feel protective and comfortable. She was herself confused as the person because of whom she was crying just a few minutes ago, she was now finding herself safe and secure in his arms.

Xavier tightened his grip around her body in a possessive manner that made her heart do a flip-flop as she inadvertently liked it. Her tears dried on their own and her heart was rejoicing, enjoying his every move, his every touch. Her wisp of a figure went limp in his arms and that's when Xavier came back to his senses. He immediately turned her around to face him as he stared her intensely. Rosaline didn't even do anything yet he felt her every act so coquettish and sexy. Her innocent seductress was driving him insane.

Xavier looked at Rosaline with drunk eyes while she stared him with half-opened eyelids which were filled with fear but a glint of desire was also shining in them.

That was it!

After noticing her subtle consent, Xavier wasted no time and wrapped his right hand around her waist. He then held her nape and licked the seam of lips while glaring her flushed face with dark eyes. Rosaline watched him with anticipation and before her mind could register, he enveloped her quivering lips in his mouth. She squeezed her eyes tightly. Unconsciously something flickered his mind which made her regain her senses. She opened her eyes which widened in fear the next second as she saw how Xavier was feasting on her lips like a caveman. Rosaline raised her hands in air and started punching her shoulders but Xavier didn't buy her pitiful act. He lowered his hand and groped her right butt cheek in his palm roughly making her scream in the kiss.

Xavier then pushed her on the bed and hovered above her making sure not to crush her with his weight. Her legs were on full display and the towel slightly loosened around her chest area. He ran his hand all over her thin smooth legs, his warm fingers making goosebumps all over her body. Rosaline held his shoulders for support as he kissed her madly. Xavier then pulled off leaving her gasping for air and attacked her neck. She panted heavily as she struggled hard to tolerate his cruel torture. He could feel her bosoms heaving up and down rhythmically against his chest. He lowered his eyes and glared at the white towel that was wrapped loosely around her dainty figure, he could perfectly see her breasts peeping from it. His lips curved into a diabolical smile as his eyes further dropped down on her cleavage line.

Xavier looked back at Rosaline who was still breathing heavily, her eyes were closed and her red lips were swollen. He felt a sadistic pleasure when his obsidian orbs landed on her swan like neck which were painted with reddish and purplish marks as he silently appreciated his art. His fingers played with the hem of towel as he slightly tugged on it. Rosaline's eyes snapped open by his rough move. She looked at him in horror but before she could open her mouth, he harshly pulled the towel down making her big busts bare to his lustful eyes.

"NO XAV- HAH!!"

Rosaline screamed and tried to shove him off her but Xavier was fast enough as he immediately captured her left bosom in his warm mouth. Her screams immediately turned into sweet, soft moans when he started sucking her bosoms sensually while he tugged his hands inside her towel and started caressing her flat belly. Rosaline clutched onto his biceps for her dear life and by now his shirt was completely drenched. The soft fabric of his shirt rubbed against her naked figure, tickling her. Incoherent sounds were leaving from her mouth as her innocent mind wasn't able to understand his erotic gestures. On the other hand, Xavier was lost in his own pleasure as he feasted on her pink, full bosoms like a voracious beast.

"I love you; I love you so much Rosebud."

He rasped in his deep husky voice making her heart do a wild pitter-patter. His words were muffled as he was busy devouring her bosoms like a madman. Rosaline was drowned in heavenly pleasure and eventually her hold on his shoulders loosened. Xavier started drawing circles on her bare navel with his index finger and thumb as he gave open mouth kisses all over her chest. Her breathing turned ragged and only the sound that could be heard in the room was her soft moans and his loud grunts.

Both of them were lost in carnal desire. Their hearts thudded violently as they wanted to bind their souls into one.

Being separated for years made their heart weep for each other silently. How hard they both try but they knew how their eyes always used to long for each other's presence, how they used to become restless as their mind couldn't stop thinking about each other. Rosaline always acted impassively towards Xavier but only the Lord knows, how she used to cry silently for the man whom she had admired all her life, how badly her heart squeezed with pain when she used to pray for the only love of her life to move on. Their love was so sweet but it had turned deadly complicated with the passing years.

Rosaline had secured her heart with thick, strong restraints but today Xavier was hell bound to break all her chains and make her completely his.

Xavier intertwined their fingers as Rosaline struggled to hold something. She held his hand tightly as she clung onto him like he is her only lifeline. Deep guttural sounds escaped his throat as he continued making love to her like an untamed, lecherous beast. The air in the room turned too hot and steamy. His actions turned rougher and wilder with every passing second. The hunger in his heart increased more and more as he glared her petite figure writhing under him in pleasure. Xavier grabbed the towel roughly between his fingers and tried to pull it off her when....

*knock knock*

Rosaline jolted up as if a bucket full of cold water was splashed on her face. She looked at Xavier with horror filled eyes. Her cheeks had turned beetroot while her teary-eyes that were filled with lust a while ago widened in fear.

But to her surprise, the expression on Xavier's face didn't change at all instead they turned into a roguish one. Rosaline clutched the towel tightly to her chest and tried to cover her bare mounds from his wanton eyes but Xavier grabbed her wrist in midway. He pinned both of her hands above her head making her gasp in surprise. Rosaline instantly shook her head in denial as she started shaking like a leaf. But she was like a little lamb who was trapped in the clutches of this hungry wolf who was licking his lips sinfully as he eyed her trembling figure with his dark orbs. Giving her a devilish smirk, Xavier lowered his head and hid his face between the valley of her breasts.

"Rosa, are you ready?"

Jennifer called her and knocked hard on the door as she heard no response from other side. Rosaline tried to free her hands from his death grip.

"I-I...J-Just....no I-...Ah!"

She let out a shaky breath when Xavier started rolling his hot tongue over her pink, soft buds smoothly which had turned hard due to his brutal torture. He looked at her and smirked while his tongue kept performing the witchcraft.

"Rosa? Are you okay? Do you need help?"

Jennifer panicked after hearing Rosaline's painful voice only if she knew what was the cause of her pain.

Rosaline's eyes widened to the size of saucers as she broke out in cold sweats. She pleaded at Xavier through teary-eyes and tried to compose herself while biting her already swollen lips. Shockingly, Xavier stopped his torments on her body making her sigh in relief.

"No, I am fine. I am not ready. I will be there down soon. Don't worry- Mmmpff!"

As soon as she completed her sentence, Xavier sealed her lips with his rough ones and started sucking them viciously.

"Are you sure?"

Jennifer again asked. Xavier growled in annoyance. He left her mouth as he broke the kiss with a sloppy sound leaving Rosaline gasping for air.

"Tell her to leave or else my bullet will assure her."

He gritted as he cupped her right bosom in his palm and give it a rough squeeze. Rosaline yelped and immediately nodded her head vigorously like an obedient kid. Xavier flashed her a smile and pecked her lips.

"I am fine, Jennie. I will get ready soon, don't worry."

She replied while staring him with dreadful eyes. A whimper escaped her lips when Xavier pinched her left nipple but she quickly suppressed it. Xavier planted a wet kiss on her left cheek but he didn't stop there as he started tracing his lips along her jawline and stopped bear her ear. Rosaline gritted her teeth in frustration when Xavier started sucking her right earlobe. He was now getting on her nerves. He was acting like a hormonal teenager but his acts were weirdly making her feel good yet scared.

"Okay if you say so."

Jennifer replied in a dejected tone and soon left.

"Let go of me Xavier"

Rosaline spat as she pushed him hard. She yelped when Xavier abruptly grabbed her throat and kissed her hard. With his other hand he covered her body with the sheets and all of a sudden got up from her. Rosaline stared him agape completely stunned by his act. She thought he would force her but she didn't expect him to act this way. She immediately hid herself in the sheets and peeked at him with a flustered face.

Xavier stood up from the bed and wiped his mouth with the back of his palms. Rosaline immediately looked away as two pink dots appeared on her cheeks. She had completely turned red as a tomato. She was also feeling ashamed of herself as she didn't expect her to lose control and get aroused like that.

"Don't be embarrassed. I am your husband. I have full rights on you. Besides it's normal between couples and if you're feeling shy then let me remind you, I have seen you naked many times and we had multiple hot sessions before too. I wanted to take things to next level but don't panic, I will do it only when you will be ready."

He spoke in his deep voice, staring in her eyes as if he read her mind. Rosaline looked at him in shock while her ears turned red as she didn't expect him to be so blunt.

"And don't worry, you're not going to wear this disgusting dress. You will wear what I have ordered for you. It matches your taste Rosebud and you'll feel comfortable in it. I will send it your room."

He spoke softly and smiled at her. Rosaline gawked him innocently while hiding herself in that sheet castle

"But Antonio told me to wear th-"

Rosaline stopped in between when Xavier suddenly turned around and threw her a killer look.

No sooner Xavier heard Rosaline saying Antonio's name, his eyes immediately turned dark in rage. Rosaline looked at him in shock. Her heart sank to the bottom while her skin turned deadly pale as she stared him horrified. Xavier then crouched down to her level. He placed his left hand beside her head making her shrink more into the pillow. He lifted his hand in air, Rosaline flinched but he started caressing her cheeks with his slender fingers.

"You can't doll up for any other guy except me."

He rasped while staring her lovingly.

Rosaline's breathe hitched hearing his deep baritone. Xavier leaned more and connected their foreheads as he sighed softly.

"I know I did wrong but still I can't let you slip away. I know I am being selfish but I just can't let you go. I know I did heinous things to you but that doesn't mean I won't let anyone replace me neither in your heart nor in your life."

His pitch abruptly dropped low and his gaze turned darker with every word. Rosaline gave him a desolated look.

"Still, I can't forgive you. I can't, how hard I try. I can't."

She spoke in a cracked voice. Xavier smiled sadly at her and kissed the tip of her nose.

"I know. I can understand but that doesn't mean I can't try. I will keep trying till my last breath. And I assure you I will win you back because you know babe, Xavier Knight doesn't accept failure."

He smiled and kissed her lips. Rosaline didn't push him away this time. He then pulled off and looked at her. His eyes were filled with so much love and care.

"Love you."

Xavier whispered and with that he stood up. Rosaline looked away from him as she was herself in a dilemma as to what to do with her life now. Xavier ran a finger through his dishevelled hair and tucked his shirt in his trousers properly.

"I will send the dress in a minute."

He said gently. He then turned around and started walking towards the exit.

"What if I refuse? What if I wear the dress which Antonio had gifted to me?"

Rosaline spoke sternly as she deliberately tried to incite his hidden demon. Xavier abruptly halted in his steps after hearing her words. But soon his lips curved into a smile. He knew that she was only bluffing because never in a million years she will wear it.

"I know you won't but if you still dare then just remember one thing Rosebud..."

His aura immediately turned spooky. All her bravado disappeared into thin air when Xavier turned back and shot her his famous psychotic gaze.

"I have my ways to stop you from showing others what's rightfully mine"
