Authors pov
"It will take some time to find the bodies, as you can see everything has burned to ashes Mister knight..."
Police officer informed to damian who was leaning against the car looking down, he was standing there like a statue. Whatever that officer said he didn't heard a bit of it, he was totally in his trance. The only thing running in his mind was rose. He felt like this was all a dream, anytime he will wake up now and find rose sleeping beside him like before.
"Mr. Knight?..."
The officer called him again but he didn't respond.
"Damian?..."
Jack called but still he didn't budge. He shook him but it looked like he is in his own world. He was silent, deadly silent.
Isabella was sitting in the car, crying her heart out for rose. This was the first time she had found someone who was loving and protecting her but she lost her too.
"Isabella?..."
Ashton called her and she looked at him.
"Listen to me... I know it's hard for you and trust we all are in the same condition but please don't cry. We are going home and boss is already out of control, he doesn't like crying so please don't cry, he might lash out on you. Please be quite..."
He told her and she nodded wiping her tears.
"Damian let's go home..."
Jack said but still he didn't respond.
Giving up jack called Ashton and they both made him sit in the car and ashton drove towards the mansion. Tears were continuously flowing from damian's eyes and he wanted to see rose only. All the good and romantic moments they spend together were flashing in front of him, the moment when she smiled for the first time, the way she laughed and giggled only for him. The way she stood in front of him like a shield everything was flashing in front him.
Isabella looked at damian and the way he was sitting there made her heart skip a beat. She was terrified to utter a word in front of him so she scooted in the corner and stayed quite.
As soon as Ashton stopped the car in front of the mansion she got out and walked inside limping as her leg was still hurting.
"Damian, let's go inside..."
Jack shook him but he was sitting still staring into nothing.
"Damian?..."
Jack yelled but still got no response, he was seeing only rose, her smiling face was not leaving his mind.
Jack grabbed his collar making his face turn towards him and smacked him on his face hard which made him came out of his world.
"I want her jack, bring her to me..."
He mumbled.
"Dam.."
Before jack completes his words he yelled.
"I want her, did you hear me... I want my rose back, now..."
"Will you please listen to me, they are trying to find her. Please calm down..."
Jack tried to calm him down.
Jack's phone buzzed in his pocket and he quickly received it as it was from the police officer.
Jack stilled in his place and the phone slipped down form his hand, before it lands down Ashton catched it.
"What happened jack?..."
He asked looking at Jack's terrified face.
"They found a body, he says that.. they doubt that she is rose..."
Jack said in broken voice and tears escaped from his eyes.
Damian took deep breaths as he felt like someone was squeezing his heart in his chest. He backed up shaking his head in denial.
"No, no... She can't be rose... My rose can't die. She is a fighter, no one can kill her. No one..."
He yelled and smacked his fist on the car window making it crack.
"Boss, please..."
Ashton pleaded, he himself felt like scream. He never thought rose will die like this.
Jackson came out running towards them from the mansion.
"What the hell happened there? Where is rose?..."
He asked damian.
"Where is she?..."
Jackson yelled at him and he stood there looking down.
Jackson clenched his jaw and smacked hard on damian's face making him stumble back. Damian didn't attacked him back, he took his punch, he had no energy to respond him, he was too lost. "It's your fault, this is all your fault Damian knight..."
Jackson yelled while Ashton and jack held him back from pounding on damian.
"Leave me, I will kill him... She did everything for him. She protected him with her life and he can't even take care of her. You don't deserve her damian, you never deserved her..." Jackson spat hatefully.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault..."
Damian mumbled.
"Jackson calm the fuck down, this is not the right time to do all these things..."
Ashton yelled at him.
"Right time?... You are talking about fucking right time, she is dead Ashton. She is dead..."
Jackson yelled back bursting out in tears.
"No, she is not dead..."
Ashton said and everyone looked at him confused.
Ashton cocked his head towards the metal gate and everyone looked there with lighting speed.
They heard the loud roaring of the bike, it was her bike. Rose drove through the gate towards the mansion.
Flashback
When those men attacked rose, she started fighting back.
They were many in numbers and after sometime it became difficult for her to keep fighting. She was loosing her energy and the thought that time is running out was distracting her from focusing on the fight. Few hard punches landed on her stomach and face and she fell on the floor with a thud. Her head hit hard on the floor and started bleeding.
She tried to stand up but he kicked her again making her land on the floor again.
Only two men were remaining now as rose has already taken everyone down. They pointed their guns at rose, rose looked at them and saw her death in front of her but before they pulled the trigger both of them got shot in their head, their blood sprawled on rose covering her clothes in their blood. Their bodies fell in front of her lifeless.
She turned around and looked at the man confusingly who saved her life.
"You?..."
"Yeah me?... Surprised?..."
He said sarcastically.
"Shouldn't I be?... Why did you save me...?..."
She stood up stumbling asking him confusingly.
"I would love to tell you the story honey but we don't have time for that..."
He said...
"Follow me, we will take the emergency exit, we don't have time to run towards the main exit..."
He said and rose ran behind him.
Rose clutched on her stomach as it was hurting too much by the kicks and punches she got from those men.
"You ok?..."
He asked grabbing her arm.
"Yeah, keep running..."
She said panting.
"We have to jump from here, we don't have time now to find exit..."
He said standing on the first floor of the window.
"Ok I am ready..."
She nodded.
He counted till 3 and they both jumped from the first floor in the back alley of the club. Both of them landed on their fours on the ground and ran away from the club, when they started running the club blasted behind them making them fall on the ground due to the impact of loud noise and fire.
Rose saw the club turning into ashes and closed her eyes, keeping her hand on her heart she tried to calm herself down.
"Damn we were so close..."
The man beside him stood up dusting his clothes.
"Are you ok?..."
He asked and helped her stand.
"Yes, I am ok... Thank you..."
She stood and leaned against the wall, clinching on her stomach.
"Why did you saved me?..."
She asked again.
"Because you took care of my son..."
He said smiling and she nodded.
"Do you want me to take you home, you don't look too good..."
He asked looking at her state.
"No I am fine, they must be waiting for me in the front..."
She said and he nodded.
They walked towards the front but she saw them leaving. She tried to call them but with all the people screaming and running around there they couldn't hear her.
Before she reached near them Ashton drove from their.
She took out her phone but it was broken.
Giving up she reached to her bike, rose sat on it but her vision was getting blurred.
She shook her head and started the bike and followed behind damian's car. She lost control over bike many times but still managed to drove to the mansion.
Flashback ended.
Rose stopped her bike in front of them and finally she lost the control and fell down along with her bike.
Everyone ran towards her and pulled her away from the bike.
"Rose?..."
Jackson tapped her cheeks but her eyes were closing, her whole body was covered in sweat, blood and dirt.
Damian was standing there frozen, thinking if she is really there or is it just another hallucination.
His eyes never leaving her.
"Rose... Stay awake..."
Jackson tapped her cheeks.
"D.. damian... Is he ok ?..."
She asked barely a whisper.
Her vision was totally blurred and she couldn't recognise the people standing in front of her.
"Shut up..."
Jackson scolded her and lifted her up taking her to the hospital.
"Damian?..."
Jack called his name and damian looked at him.
"She is alive what the fuck are you waiting for, go with him..."
Jack yelled at him bringing him out of his daze.
Damian looked at Jackson and realised it is real, it's not his imagination.
He ran behind Jackson towards the hospital.
