Chapter 28: 28 - One Last Kiss
ROSE POV:
I wore a pale pink crop top & ck ripped jeans along with white sneakers. Normally I wore little
makeup, but today I don''t feel like doing anything.
I don''t know about ferr but there was a constant tension in the air, I could feel that. My chest was too
tight, I forced myself to breathe steadily.
I couldn''t even meet his gaze, while all this time I could feel his burning stare at me. I peeked at him
sideways realizing that he is now standing in front of the mirror.
I didn''t even dare to raise my head while using the hairdryer without looking at the mirror. I just couldn''t
look into his eyes after how I talked to him yesterday.
When I recalled everything, I felt disgusted with myself. How could I take Luciano''s name into the
conversation?
That jerk freaking kidnapped me, my whole body burning in anger thinking about him.
That son of a biscuit...
Wait, a little swear won''t hurt since grandpa is not here to twist my ears.
That fucking bastard...
Back then I used to swear a lot, but My grandparents were so strict, especially grandpa. He used to
twist my ear whenever I swear. In the end, I stopped using those words for them.
I heaved a sigh, what is the use of feeling guilty now stupid Rose. You screwed up everything.
I came back to senses by the sound of his footsteps, as I peeked through the mirror to see him moving
out of the room.
Wait!...
"W..wait", I wavered, turning off the hairdryer, he stopped in his tracks, turning around which made me
look down once again, not able to meet his eye.
I feel irked with myself...
"My grandparents areing today, they said.. th..that they want to meet you. Do you have time? I
mean, if you''re busy, it''s fin-", before I could finish he beat me to it.
"I will meet them", he stated, the confidence evident in his calm tone. We both stood there silently for a
moment, when I was about to meet his gaze, he left.
I sighed mentally...
Walking with few steps, distance behind him, we made our way to the living hall, where Susan
arranging the breakfast but ferr didn''t pay attention to it.
"Ferr", I called as he turned around, I eyed everywhere but him. "Let''s have breakfast", I looked at him
for a second only to avert my gaze like a sh.
I can''t meet his eyes. I really can''t...
"You can have breakfast. I will wait outside", his objection is obvious as I heard his footsteps fading off
in the distance to make me raise my head again.
I don''t think he remembers that I asked sorry yesterday. Maybe I should ask again. I saw Susan
standing there, waiting for me. I informed her that I don''t want breakfast & told her to share the food
among themselves.
Making my way outside, I saw him leaning against the expensive white car waiting for me. Once our
eyes met, he opened the door, waiting for me.
I got in the front passenger seat not even uttering a word as did my seat belt then made his way to the
other side, settling on the driver seat.
When he revved up the engine, I gulped in pure dread as the sound of the engine roared. Once the
main gate was opened, he intensified the eleration of the car like a sh, making me gasp loudly in
terror.
"Ferr, slow down", I choked out, but he just went on with the exact uproar speed. I saw his face
clenched hard revealing his protruding veins.
"Ferr, I am sorry. I shouldn''t have talked in that way to you yesterday. Please slow down. You''re scaring
me", I shouted as the speed decreased gradually making me let out a sigh of relief.
Seriously! he scared me like this just for A sorry...
I stared at him unbelievably, but his eyes fixed on the road now. Thank God! This road is empty since
it''s a one-way route for the mansion, no one will pass in this way.

After an hour of driving, we reached the ce, My Home.
After a long time, I sighed in content...
But what I say next left me speechless, my eyes went wide, I stood frozen in my spot not able to
believe what I was seeing. The door opened, revealing the joyous face of My Grandparents.
Oh gosh, when did they arrive?
"My baby", she squealed, as they both make their way towards me. I ran towards them as we were
engulfed in a tight hug. An instantter, we pulled back.
I turned around to catch a glimpse of Ferr, standing over there with a huge smile stered on his face
but it didn''t reach his eyes. It is a forced one that I can''t stand, I felt so bad.
I made my way towards him. I entwined his hand with mine, gave him an assured smile as we both
made our way towards My Grandparents.
After the introduction, we all started to make our way towards the home. But stopped in our tracks
hearing the rumbling sound of the cars as ifing toward us. We all looked back to see more cars
arriving at our ce.
The door was opened, it was none other than but John, Mark & William as they came along with the
guards.
"Who are all they?", grandpa eyed them suspiciously. But I told him to not worry about, "Grandpa don''t
worry, they are all the guards working for ferr. Come on, let''s get inside". I assured him as he gave a
nod.
Getting inside, everyone settled on the couch as I made my way towards the kitchen, saw that the
coffee has been made already.
"Baby, do you need my help?", granny questioned, for which I shook my head negatively, "I will take
care".
I started to pour the coffee into the cup one after the other. I saw grandpa initiating the conversation
first.
"So, Ferrari...", grandpa let out a small chuckle before continuing further. "Sorry tough, but I''m just
marveling why your parents named you Ferrari? You know it''s a car name", he queried being curious
about ferr''s name.
Even I wondered too...
"The woman who gave birth to me gave this name, she resembled me with a thing, unwanted.", he
sounded as if it''s not a big deal. But not for us, we all gaped at him. I was stunned by his revtion.
"Referring your mother as a woman?", ferr''s answer didn''t sit well with grandpa. I looked at granny, she
is silent, but her face wasced with worry.
But My thought is, why he was unwanted?!
The atmosphere around us was quiet. Too quiet! I feel like everything had fallen silent, even the wind
seemed to have died down.
"So, how was your trip, grandpa? I hope you guys enjoyed it a lot", I tried to change the topic, as I feel
like it''s not going in a good way.
"It''s great, sweety", he muttered, his excitement seemed to fade off. I heaved out a sigh as I looked out
for a serving tray.
"So, how is your business going on?", granny queried. Thank God! This time the conversation is not
going on the wrong track.
"From the moment, My Little Flower came into My Life, everything is great. She will always be the best
thing that happened to me in this lifetime", his eyes locked with mine as I smiled up at him, my heart
fluttered by his words.
"But it''s great only for me, not for her, Mrs.Hardy", he continued with his eyes still fixed on me, instantly
my smile changed into a deep frown.
What he is saying?...
"She loves me so much but I gave her nothing but pain at the end of the day. She got targeted because
of me, she got kidnap-", before he could any further, I shouted his name to make him stop.
A full-blown panic hit me, it loomedrger until I could feel the sweat run down my neck. I looked at My
grandparents both stared at him, wide-eyed too shocked to speak.
"She got kidnapped because of me-", he began to continue further but I interrupted him again.
"Ferr, I said stop", I screamed at him making my way out from the kitchen as the tension in the room
ratcheted up a notch.
"Continue", grandpa''s jaw tightened as his eyes shed a warning at me, to not interfere while
grandma''s eyes studied him intently. But Ferr seems unfazed by this all.
"She got kidnapped because of me as one of my rivals did this silly act to take My Position", he
admitted, in a matter of a second unfolding everything, as those words made the tension grew thicker
inside the room.
Fear clutched at my heart with cold fingers knowing what will be the next question from grandpa. "What
position?", as I thought he inquired.
I bit my lips to keep them from quivering & blinked my eyes to get rid of the blur realizing that I was
crying.
Please don''t say... don''t say...
I shook my head negatively, begging him with my eyes to not say.
At that moment I was certain I saw something in his eyes, guilty. He simply gazed into my eyes & then
he drew a deep breath.
Don''t say...
As he breathed out that final word, I was praying to not get revealed to them. "I am the Mafia
SottoCapo", his cold stare & expression were unnerving.
Why?!
"SottoCapo?", granny couldn''t understand, her face looks frightened. "UnderBoss", his face held a
nk expression.
"Oh, God!", her voice was barely a whisper, scared would be an understatement now as she mped a
hand over her mouth in horror.
I looked at grandpa to see his eyes fixed on Ferr as he took a deep breath leaning back on the couch in
a stressed way not able to believe still what he is hearing.
He averted his gaze to meet my eyes with a disappointed look, which made me feel awful.
I looked at ferr, he said nothing, his stoic features do not suggest what was on his mind.
He stood up fixing his suit, "I am going to Germany to finish off a business deal. I will be back soon",
his voice is calm as if nothing happened, & said that only to me. My grandparents sat still in shock
looking at each other.
I didn''t expect this from him...
"I wish it would be better if you nevere back again, Mr.Knight", grandpa broke the silence, standing
up from the couch with his eyes fixed on Ferr.
Wiping tears from my eyes with my hand, I failed to suppress a sob. "Don''t cry, Flower", he stepped in
front to calm me but was blocked by grandpa, as he stood in between us, which made him angry. His
jaw clenched, as his eyes looked dreadful as if he will break out in anger anytime.
"No one cane between me and My Little FLOWER, Mr.Hardy. You know what, no matter what I
can''t and I won''t let her go, even if she wants to. She is Fucking Mine", his voice echoed, anger burning
through him.
"Ferr, watch your tone", I warned, equal anger and pain evident in my voice. For the first time, I saw
fear on my grandpa''s face.
He ruined everything. I was waiting to confess the truth to them when the perfect time arrives, where
they would ept Ferr & see the goodness in him but he broke the truth especially on the first time
itself.
He simply continued to stare at me nkly, I couldn''t understand what''s going on in his thoughts.
"Don''t forget me, Flower" he hinted, it sounded as if he is not gonnae back with that he headed for
the door leaving me appalled.
What''s wrong with him?!
"Ferr, wait", I eximed in agony but he already left the home. When I was about to rush to stop him,
grandpa grabbed my hand stopping me.
"You''re not gonna see him not now, not ever. We trusted you, that you will make a wise decision about
your life. But you broke our trust", he sighed deeply with his head down, as well as grandma''s face held
the same dismay.
"Grandpa, Please!", I pleaded with teary eyes as his eyes softened wiping off my tears.
He let off my hand whispering the word which broke my heart into a million pieces, "One Last Time".
His voice is so steady & authorized, I nodded, epting for now to see My Ferr.
I ran outside to see him walking towards his car. After doing all this, how could he move on like this?
"Ferr, stop.", I screamed racing towards him as all of his men''s eyes now on me. Arghh... I hate this
attention, it''s embarrassing but right now I don''t care.
He turned around taking long strides towards me making me halt in my step. His eyes fuming with
wrath, it''s evident on his face.
Wait! I am the one who should be angry here...
He dragged me forcefully somewhere, his hands gripped my wrist hard enough to leave his fingerprints
& it hurts.
"I am the one who should be angry, not you", I yelled at him but he simply continued on his path as we
neared the unused car shed which is parked with grandpa''s old wrecked car.
He pushed me inside closing the door of the car shed. His actions are raising my temper.
"Care to exin, Mr.Knight. You scared both of them. What the hell is wrong with you? Why did you tell
them the truth? Do you know what grandpa said? He-", my words were faded off in the mid by him. To
be honest, I was expecting him to say something.
Instead, his rugged hand caged around my jaw roughly, making me meet his fierce eyes as he crashed
his mouth down on mine forcefully.
I tried to push him away which ended up serving him more strength. He growled, as his other hand
clenched my hips hard making me hiss in pain and he wasted no time shoving his tongue inside my
mouth.
He backed me against the car, lifting me, he made me sit on the hood of the old car. The merciless kiss
continued, his beard burning my chin, his fingers digging bruises into my hip.
I tried to break the kiss by cing my both hands on his chest trying to put some distance between us.
He tugged a handful of my hair, as he bit my bottom lip making me hiss. "Fucking don''t push me away",
he warned pulling back.
"What is wrong with you? I asked sorry already. Ok, I am apologizing again now, I am Sorry.", I yelled
back, I had enough of his stupidity.
"I am not fucking angry with you about yesterday happening.", he gave me one of his deathly re,
leaving me confused.
"Who needs the fucking sorry, all I need is only You. But you fucking avoided me not even once you
looked into my eye? WHY?", he mmed his fist hard in the hood which thundered through the whole
shed making me jerk back a little by his outburst.
I didn''t mean to make him feel as if I am avoiding him. I just felt ashamed of my act.
"Are you angry?", I whispered, he was taken aback by my question with our eyes locked. He shook his
head in disbelief letting out a smallugh, closing the little distance between us. I am still sitting on the
hood of the wrecked car.
"Forget all those shits. Kiss me back now. One Last Kiss", he requested as if it is hisst moment with
me.
"No, Come back and get your kiss", I declined with our forehead touched against each other. I don''t like
the way he is asking me.
"Who knows when will I evene back?", he divulged, his colorless gaze ripped me alive making me
wonder if he is truly going for a formal business deal.
"Where you go-", he didn''t allow me to finish, swallowing my words with the press of his lips as the kiss
was forceful and demanding.
Words are no longer needed...
I moved my lips against his gently contrary to his aggressive one. I draped one arm around his
shoulder with the other cupping his face, caressing my thumb gently across it.
Instantly, he calmed down as his body rxed, his hold on me filled with tenderness. The press of his
lips neither forceful nor demanding now. His hands slipped under my crop top but not out of hunger,
just to hug me closer.
I parted my lips slightly, allowing his tongue to slip inside felt him washing over like a wave of warmth. I
could feel the soft tickle of his breath beneath my nose as we breathed each other in.
Our bodies pressed together heatedly, I could taste our shared breath. Soon I felt breathless, sensing
that he pulled apart but still, our lips are brushing against each other.
"You always have a home toe back for", I reminded him, which I confessed, the day before
yesterday.
"You better keep those words", he cradled my neck roughly before he iming my lips over again
pulling me impossibly closer against his robust form.
I let myself sink into this moment, forgetting about everything that happened so far.
I waved my hands, watching him fading off in the distance in a car. I saw his men''s surrounded my
home for the Protection. Mr.John & William also staying here except Mark who went along with Ferr.
I made my way back towards home, there is something off about Ferr, or Is it me?
Did I fail to understand him?
I sighed, things don''t happen the way we want always. Right now I wish for nothing else, but his safety.
I will try to make everything right before hees back.
