His Little FLOWER

Chapter 26: 26 - What Have I Said?

ROSE POV:

Blood gushed with sickening determination from everyone's flesh in violent jets of red. I closed my eyes

to not see them but I could heed to their screams of pain.

The screams are getting louder & louder that I couldn't bear until I awoke to the sound of a familiar

voice calling my name, "Flower, wake up".

Following the voice, my eyes snapped open to be locked with ferr's. In those deep brown eyes was the

warmth of an everlasting hearth.

I let out a sigh of relief whilst smiled at him assuring him that it's just a bad dream. I know that I'm safe

& I will be Always. I looked at my wrist to notice the duct tapes have been removed.

I kept staring into those brown eyes, his eyes were so gloomy burning with guilt, I could see it that's

why he is silent. "Don't you have nothing to say?", I broke the silence between us as I noticed he is

standing on his knees.

"Come here", I moved off making space for him as he lied beside me pulling me closer to him making

our forehead touch against each other.

Caressing his face, I nudged his nose playfully earning a faint smile as his response. I longed to touch

him never in a sexual way, never anywhere other than his face. When they captured me, all my

thoughts were about only him.

It's really funny as all I wanted is to see his face at least once before I die when I was scared to death.

"I am sorry", he whispered against my lips, even if it's not his fault.

"You asked already & it got nothing to do with you because it's not your fault. It's my fault that I got

fooled", I said, as it's obvious. I feel into their trick.

"That's not true, you acted in that way because you love me", he replied, I smiled at him only to fade

away when I remembered Andrew.

"How is he?", I sat up like a flash, my heart is hammering hard whilst my mind replayed how ruthlessly

they attacked him.

"He is fine now", he said pulling me back to the same position. That soothed my mind.

Thank God!

"Really? He is fine now, he lost so much blood-", before I could finish he beat me to it saying, "They

nearly lost him in surgery but now he is completely fine. Out of danger".

Lost him...

Those words made me feel as if my bones have no more strength and my muscles are all out of power

making me remember all once again. Today many lost their lives & it's because of me.

"Flower, why are you crying?", his words brought back my senses as he wiped my tears off from my

cheeks. I sat up shaking my head telling him that I am fine but still I can't bottle up my emotions

anymore as I sobbed into my hands & the tears dripped between my fingers.

He made me sit on his lap pulling my hands off from covering my face but I didn't meet his face as I hid

my face on his neck as he kept on saying, "Everything is gonna be ok", as well as brushing my tears

away. I cried until no more tears came, but still, guilty remained.

I was still in the same position with my face buried on his neck until he lifted my chin with a curled index

finger & forced me to meet his solemn gaze.

"My Little FLOWER, I can't see you like this. Is it because of me? Did I hurt you in any way?", he asked

apologetically with a guilt-filled face.

I shook my head saying, "No, it's all my fault. T...they-", I stuttered as he rubs my back, I gulped audibly

my sobs before continuing to say further.

"They all died, it's all because of me. If only I stayed here as you told me, all would be fine now. I would

be safe at home & they wouldn't have to die like this. I feel horrible lik-", I cried out before I could say

further he shushed me as I looked upon him.

"It's not your fault. If someone has to feel guilty here, it should be me. It's my fault that I can't able to

protect you. It's all My fault from the very start.", he said looking into my eyes when I didn't say anything

he continued further.

"Those who are all died not innocent ones. We are all same in the Mafia business, never hesitate to kill.

Sometimes even if they are innocent. That is how this works & you got nothing to do with this. Not now,

not ever", he said, for a second I felt scared of his words as once again fear found me.

"Sorry for scaring you, but this is the truth, you got nothing to do with this. Do you understand?", he

asked, stroking my face with his rough knuckles waiting for my reply for which I gave him a nod.

"Ok, go & get fresh. I will get you the food, you must be hungry.", he said, I nodded again not even

uttering a word feeling overwhelmed by everything.

I got down from his lap making my way to the washroom as my mind is saying, "Whatever he is doing

is dangerous. He said we are all same in this business. It means the same thing that happened to

those men's may happen to him tom-".

I shook my head hard, "No... No... No. I should not think like this. He will be with me always. No one

can take him away from me. No one." I assured myself.

I should talk about this to him, this lifestyle is dangerous & his life will be at stake always. Anything can

happen at any time no matter how many are there to protect him.

After getting fresh & changing my clothes, I relaxed on the bed. Looking at the nearby table, I noticed

My handbag & phone.

Wait! I kept my bag & phone in the office room. Maybe, ferr might have told someone to bring it back.

So, why bother? I shrugged off...

Swiping my phone on, I saw around 20 missed calls from My granny. Oh, God! They might have gotten

scared by now.

Without wasting a moment I called back. Granny picked up the call in the first ring itself, "Rose, where

were you? Jesus, are you ok?", she asked in a panicked way, as I thought.

"Gra..Granny, I am fine. There was a meeting in the office all of a sudden. So, I... I got no choice but to

put my phone in silence", I lied, because getting kidnapped by someone, worse than that nearly getting

closer to lose my hands is not some good news to share happily.

She let out a sigh in relief, "Ok, dear. I could understand. It seems like I took it too far. You know that

you are still our little girl". I let out a small laugh, "I know, granny".

"How is grandpa? Are you guys enjoying it? Did you guys used the money which I have transferred to

your account?", I asked, it's been a long journey for them besides I sent my one-month paycheck for

them to use.

A small wish of mine, that they have to use My money because it's always me who used their money.

Apart from that paycheck, to be honest I didn't work. The next month, I was in the hospital with ferr, as

he was in a coma & today I went to the office only to get kidnapped.

But, my bank balance says a different story, since ferr deposited money in my account in the name of

salary for the previous month also for this month in advance & it's freaking high. I can't earn that much

high even if I work till I die.

So, I did a simple thing. I ignored the existence of that account, now using another account of mine

which he has no idea about.

I don't mind him spending his money for me sometimes but on the other hand, no matter how rich he is,

I want to be financially independent always.

"We used them, dear, since it's your small wish. About enjoyment, we had a good time here but the fun

is over. Guess what? We are coming home tomorrow", she squealed in joy, leaving me in utter shock.6

I could hear grandpa's voice, "Five minutes ago you said to keep it as a surprise". I laughed out, she is

not good at this.

"Tomorrow? That's great & you're telling me that now. That's not fair, Granny", I whined in

disagreement, but still, I am happy about their return. I missed them ao much because we have never

spent time apart like this.

"Sorry, baby. We thought to keep it as a surprise. But I can't control myself. Anyways, come to our

home tomorrow along with your Man...", she whispered the ending word in a teasing way.

"We want to meet him & want to know whether the guy you are in love with is a good man or some

criminal", my eyes widened in impact when she said, criminal.

"Cri...Criminal", I stuttered as sweat started to form on my forehead.

She laughed out, "I was just kidding. We will be waiting for you both. I am giving the phone to your

Grandpa, he wants to talk". I mumbled out, "ok".

After talking with grandpa for a while, I hung up the call. Since they have to pack their things.

I am happy that I'm gonna see them tomorrow after a long time that is after two months. On the other

hand, I don't know if I should tell them about Ferr's real identity. Of course, he is A Businessman,

everyone knows but his other side?

I can't hide this from them, I have to tell them. Not tomorrow but soon I will tell them about everything,

let's wait up for a precise time.

There is no doubt in this that they won't accept him nor our love once I tell them about Ferr's other side.

I hope nothing bad happens tomorrow...

DIMITRI POV:

After the funeral ended, came the counseling where everyone confessed some good things about My

son, Vladmir. I couldn't even see his face, since it is not there.

Today morning, some of his remains have been thrown at my mansion gate in a bag. My son was

tortured brutally by that Raffa. When it comes to My second son, Giovanni, I didn't even get to see this

remains itself.

FERRARI, The Cruelest man I've ever witnessed in this business...

I made my way towards the room once everything ended. Reaching the room, I saw the woman who

gave birth to that cruel creature, the one whom I married.

"You must be really happy now, finally, you got your freedom from being a mother", I stated the fact,

letting out a laugh while inside I am burning in rage to kill her. Since it's all started with her.

"My life revolves around money & the pleasure I am getting from them. That's it. My sons, Vladmir and

Giovanni, both are dead. Now, Franco is the only one left like you. Stay away from that thing. I mean

from Ferrari, if you want to live", she said, which exacerbated me more.

I fisted her hair as she hissed in pain but her eyes fixed on me with a menacing glare. "Instead of

fucking around here, if you have the audacity then kill him. I am leaving for France", she said, making

me get rid of my hand from her.

Before leaving she whispered in my ear, "Learn from Ferrari, How to be A Man." She laughed out,

leaving me humiliated.

Once she left, a raw rage tore my lungs, plucking at my nerves as my hands are now itching to kill him.

Till now, My passion is to take the position of Capone but not anymore. Not, until I will kill that cunt with

my own hands.

I have to do something...

ROSE POV:

I leaned back on the headboard seeing him putting back the empty plates on the food trolley. I need to

talk about this to him, I can't lose him.

I want to live the rest of my life with him, seeing his face, holding his hands until I take my last breath. I

placed on hand on his to grab his attention as he looked at me.

"What is it, Flower?", he asked, holding my hands in between his before peppering small kisses around

my fingers, making my heart flutter at his sweet gesture.

I did the same, holding his hand placed a deep kiss on the rough knuckles where he got a tattoo of

Rose, resembling me.

"Ferr, I... I want to... I-", I couldn't say further, I have a hard time breathing since this topic making me

anxious.

He cupped my face, "I know something bothering you & it's because of me. You can talk to me about

anything. I won't get angry", he assured me with his promising words.

I gave a nod before letting out my thoughts, "Can you please not kill that Gary? He said he got a family

to be taken care of". Requesting, I waited for him to say something but he let out a small laugh looking

at me with an amused smile.

Seriously?...

Taking his phone from the table, he handed it to me before opening something on that. I saw a file with

many names list, "Search Gary Livingston", he said. I looked at him baffled but he insisted to do. So, I

did.

After searching the name, I saw the details of that guy who said he has a family.

"He is a Prisoner, Five years back he killed his pregnant wife. He was taken out of prison by Luciano.

Normally, we will take criminals out for our own needs using a heft of money", he elucidated.

I can't believe this. Is this even possible?

"But, how?", I looked at his details in distress. These things stressing me out.

"Stop worrying about these low lives.", he said, taking his phone back.

I looked at him with shock-filled eyes, "Low lives? People's life is not a joke. You can't kill anyone that

comes in your way like this.", I confessed, hoping he would understand my point.

"You should take rest", his face held a serious expression as he tried to make me lie down on the bed.

"No, listen to me, ferr", I cupped his face, my heart is restless knowing about the dangers lurking

around him.

"You don't have to worry about me this much", he said, those words saddened me more. He is talking

as if it is not a big deal.

"Then who would?", I retorted back, my hands still cupping his face with our eyes locked. I looked at

him searching for the answers.

"This conversation is over", he stated bluntly, pulling away from me, he stood up from the bed to leave.

"No, it's not", I held his arm, stopping him from not leaving.

I got down from the bed, not ready to give up on this. "You're a well-known Businessman, you got

money, Billionaire fame everything. Isn't enough?".

He leaned down to my height, his face leveled to mine now. His eyes got no sign of any emotion. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"It was never about money, it is about me. It's not about fucking spotlight. It is about My identity, which I

engraved on my own & I will go to any extent for that.", I gulped, hearing those words as fear heaved in

my chest.

"I know it sounds scary for you, but this is My first identity, after comes the so-called Billionaire fame,

money & other shits.", he declared, turning around to leave but I held his arm stopping him from

leaving.

"This is...", before I could say further, he finished the word & turned around to face me. "Wrong. I know

this is wrong. I don't give a fuck about it. I chose this. Like it or not, This is who I am.", he said,

determined & strong in his decision.

"I don't want to live like this. I can't be like nothing happened knowing when I am the reason for all the

deaths that happened today", I said, trying to reasoning with him, wanting him to see in my point of

view.

He closed his eyes for a second taking a deep breath before looking at me again, "I will make sure you

won't face this situation again in the future. You don't have to worry about those who died. It's not

gonna affect the fucking world's population".

Hearing those words, a wave of anger, as well as sorrow, engulfed me. "This all looks fun for you. Isn't

it? Just a world population?", I looked at him in disbelief, his words are ruthless. How could he talk like

this?

I glared at him before turning around not wanting to see his face. "I got nothing to talk with you.

Everything is a joke for you. You kill people & gain money just like this. I can't even imagine a future like

this. I-", he interrupted me in the mid, placing his hand on my shoulder.

"You misunderstood, flower. The reason I am in this is to-", he told in a composed tone, but I pushed

his hand away, closing my ears with my hands not wishing to hear anything from him.

I shouted with my closed eyes out of agony, "No, I don't want to talk. I think this is the reason, even

your brother Luciano hating you because you don't care about others' lives. I know what you are doing

yet I accepted you. But I never thought I would've fallen for A heartless Monster, who is always feeding

himself over others blood and-".

I closed my mouth with my hands when I realized what have I said. I took it too far as my eyes were as

wide as if someone was coming to deliver the fatal blow.

A heavy Silence hugged the room like calm before the storm. He didn't say anything nor I could able to

see his face since I was turning in the opposite direction. I breathed hard as if no air would ever be

enough.

Right now, I didn't even dare to move nor say a word in my defense. There was nothing worse than

seeing him losing his temper.

When he gets angry, he will lose all rationality & became uncontrollable. My words might've hurt him

too.

Oh, God! I shouldn't have said that word...

I shouldn't have said it like that, no matter what...

Taking deep breaths which coming out as a short puff, my heart raced with tremendous speed. Each

second submerged in fear made a permanent mark on my heart.

I muster up the courage to face him to ask sorry as I turned around...
