Chapter 5

Vincent's P.O.V

Ever since that day, I could not stop thinking of my little rose, yes, you read it right she's mine, since the moment I laid my eyes on her.

I never felt this way before, no other girls but she can make me feel things I've never experienced.

It has been exactly two days. I appointed my most trusted men to keep a watch on her, just to make sure she stays safe and also to reassure myself that she's safe and I can work in peace without worrying.

The day that I came home from the diner, I immediately told Marco to do a background check on her and from the look that Marco and Alex gave me, I knew that were shocked as it was the first time I ever told Marco to do a background check on a girl.

I don't normally do relationships as I think that they're just a waste of time but that girl is completely changing me and she doesn't even know, but I know it's just a matter of time.

I need to calm myself because I know, if I suddenly come out of blue on her doorstep and claim her mine, she's definitely will fear me and that's the last thing I wanted.

After Marco's research, I came to know that my baby girl lost her both parents in a car accident three years ago when she was just eighteen years old. It must have been tough for her but not anymore as I'm now here, I would make sure that she always remains happy and will have no problems. I also came to know that she has a good relationship with Mario and his wife.

And also, Mario helped my rose when she was alone by herself and I have to thank Mario for that when I see him next.

She's innocent, and where as I'm a monster. I kill people, I'm a selfish and possessive person, and I don't enjoy sharing what's mine.

I know that keeping her with me also means I'm endangering her, but I will protect her even if it means sacrificing my own life.

It's already late at night, and I got my phone in my hand, ready to call my rose. I'm dying to listen to her voice. I got her number on my phone already saved since the first night but I kept restraining myself not to call her as I know all too well once I do. There will be no turning back.

But tonight, I do not think that I would be capable of restraining myself longer. Fighting with myself whether or not to call her.

Finally, I decided I would call her but just to listen to her voice, I would be saying nothing or I would try not to.

Calling her, I waited impatiently for her to pick up, but she didn't, making horrible thoughts start running in my mind. Maybe something happened or maybe she already went to bed as it's already pretty late.

I let out a growl, wanting to punch something to lessen my anger a bit.

Maybe I should try again, I said to myself, and so I did. I was expecting my call to go unnoticed, but this time she answered on the first ring.

I felt my hand shaking slightly, too overwhelmed and excited that I finally can listen to her voice.

"Hello, '' she said and I was too tempted to talk to her but I know all too well that it would not be an excellent idea at all. So, there I sat listening but alas, it didn't last long as she hung up, probably thinking that it's a mistake. But it is just a matter of time, we'll be together soon, my little rose.
