Authors pov
Damian was sitting in his office, the whole day he locked himself in and was drinking continuously, his office was a mess. He threw everything on the floor and broke everything which came in front of his eyesight.
Jack and Roy tried to talk to him but he didn't opened the door for anyone. Rose's words hurt him badly, he was feeling betrayed...
"Why did you do this to me Rose, I've never hurted you, I always tried to make you feel comfortable with me and you threw me away from your life like a piece of trash... Why?"
His voice broke...
Jack and Roy thought that he will come out later when he would've calmed himself down but it was late at night now and still he was not ready to open the door. Giving up jack used his spare key and opened the door, getting in he saw Damian pouring himself drinks, he was drowning himself in the toxicity of alcohol...
"Stop it Damian, what are you doing..."
Jack snatched the bottle from his hand.
"Drinking my pain away..."
He slurred.
"What nonsense are you talking, and how much did you drank, damn it..."
He cursed looking at the empty bottles lying on the floor.
"Rose left me jack, she don't want to stay with me. She didn't even turned back, didn't bother to look at me once while leaving me..."
He gulped down another shot and slammed it on the table.
"I was just a task for her..."
Jack picked up all the drinks from the table and threw them in the dustbin.
"Enough Damian, you are not drinking anymore..."
"You were right she is a heartless girl, she don't care about anyone, no one..."
Jack's heart dropped hearing his broken voice.
"I told you to stay away from her Damian, I told you she is not good for you but you never listened to me..."
Jack scolded him...
"I was a fool to think that I can melt a stone, I did everything for her jack, I was too gentle with her, I never treated her like a servent, I took her side over my own family members... I always admired her, I thought she is different from other girls but no she betrayed me too..."
He let out a mocking laugh...
"Everyone betrays me..."
"Damian please..."
Jack tried to say but Damian raised his hand...
"No, no... Listen to me jack... Let me speak, you are my best friend right? Then listen to me... You know Rose always listened to me, whenever I talked about something she sat beside me and listened everything carefully, like a girl who cared, I was in love with her silence..."
He placed his hands on jacks shoulder and slurred...
"Why does everyone leave me like this, first my mother, then Isabella she promised me that will she always stay by my side but where is she now, nowhere... You know how much proud I was when she promised me in her soft baby voice that she will always protect me, she was so tiny, cute and little but still she wanted to protect me..."
He smiled sadly at his old memories...
"And now Rose, she always protected me and I always called her my angel, you know when I saw her fighting with that blonde girl that was the first time I fell for her. I was so lost in her and decided to make her mine, she was the one for me. I tried to comfort her thinking she might be behaving cold because she didn't got anyone's love. She was raised in that kind of place but I was wrong, she didn't deserved it..." His grip on the bottle tightened which was placed on the table...
"She fucking didn't deserved it..."
He threw the bottle on the floor shattering it into million pieces...
"Damian please control yourself, she is gone now, let it go...." Jack pleaded...
"1
"No jack, she will pay for it... She called herself a slave and now I will show her how we exactly treat our slaves..."
Damian gritted angrily, his eyes bloodshot red and Jack's heart sunked more looking at him.
He was too scared for Damian because he knows that if Damian decides something he will do it no matter what, and on other hand Rose was not a simple girl whom he will treat like anything and she will take it silently, jack knew that Rose will strike back and it was scaring him that Damian will start a never ending hate war between them.
"You are too drunk to think rationally Damian, we will talk about this in the morning, when you will get sober..."
He tried to hold Damian but it was too difficult for him to handle a drunken Damian. He called Ashton for help and they both carried Damian towards his room and placed him on the bed.
"What's wrong with boss, jack... Why is he like this..."
Ashton frowned looking at Damian's vulnerable condition...
"It because of your fucking senior Rose, Ashton..."
Jack spat hatefully...
"I am sure whatever senior Rose did, she did it for a reason jack... I have watched her since childhood, she never hurted a person without reason not even with her words, I am sure she has valid reason to do it..."
Ashton defended her...
Jack let out a mocking laugh...
"Reason?... then Please tell your great senior Rose to explain this..."
He pointed towards a drunken Damian who was in total mess...
"That girl is heartless Ashton, she is not an angel she is a fucking monster, who only knows how to kill people... She didn't even think twice before hurting the man who took care of her..."
Jack's voice was filled with hate...
Ashton kept quiet afterall he himself didn't knew that why she did it...

"Great, finally she left him..."
He lit his cigarette and took long drags puffing out smoke...
"But you said that she is keeping an eye on him, what if she came to his rescue again, we will definitely get caught this time..."
His bodyguard said...
"No, this is the perfect time... Damian is not in his right condition and something big must have happened between them, I am sure Rose won't come back to save him..."
He said taking another drag of his cigarette...
"I am still warning you guys, don't do it... Damian will kill all of us, please listen to me..."
The man sitting in front of him tried to make him understand...
"Looks like you don't love your little daughter anymore..."
He said smirking evilly...
"I will cut her in tiny pieces if you won't do as I say, do you understand....."
"Why are you dragging her in all this mess, she is a little baby..."
He pleaded...
"Well I don't have any choice, we need someone to break Damian's security and you are perfect for it..."
He chuckled looking at his begging face...
"I want you to kill that bitch too..."
The feminine voice demanded and all 3 men looked at her...
"Patience baby, we will do that too... First let me become a mafia boss and then you can do whatever you want with her..."
He kissed her beautifully manicured hand and
She smiled seductively at him after listening his words...
"What are we going to do boss, we can't kill him in his house, and what about his father that man will definitely do something to stop us..."
His bodyguard said...
"I know, don't worry I'll take care of his father and you two listen to me carefully..."
He told them the plan on how they will trap Damian and his father and they all listened and nodded enthusiastically...
After listening the plan they all left to do their respective works.
"Enjoy your last few days Damian because the backward countdown of your life has begun..."
He said crushing his cigarette in the ashtray...
*****
Damian stirred in his sleep and the first thing he did was placed his hand beside him and tried to find Rose, he opened his eyes and saw the place empty...
"Rose ?..."
He called in his morning voice, and then he remembered that she doesn't live here anymore...
He gritted his jaw and threw the duvet on the floor in anger. He was still in his black shirt and pants so he walked towards the bathroom and started the shower after stripping. His head was pounding and his whole body was sore...
He walked towards his closest and saw it's one side empty where Rose used to keep her clothes. Walking in that corner he opened the drawer and saw a small knife in it which Rose forgot to take with her, he picked it up and threw it in the dustbin.
He wore his usual black suit and exited the closet. He was about to open the door but stopped for a moment and turned around, getting in the closet he picked up that knife and again placed it in the drawer. No matter how much he tried to hate her and her belongings he knew that he can't do it forever Rose had made a special place in his heart and it would be very hard for him to hate her...
He entered the dinning hall looking dead serious and more scary than usual. No one dared to greet him or talk to him, everyone was scared of his sore mood. Maisy and Emily placed the breakfast in front of everyone. Today Maisy made Damian's coffee as Rose was not here.
Damian picked up the mug and took a sip, his serious expressions turned into a disgusted one and he threw the mug on the floor angrily. Everyone flinched at their place when the mug landed on the floor and hot liquid spread on the shiny floor...
"If you give me this shit again then you will pay for it with your life..."
He threatened Maisy and she started shaking in fear. From last 6 months he was drinking the coffee made by Rose and he was addicted to it by now. The coffee she made was different in taste and he wanted that only.
Getting in his office he slammed his hands on the table frustratingly...
"Why Rose why...."
She was not ready to leave his mind and it was making him more angry and temperamental....☐☐☐☐☐
