Finally, I have reached the island

Finally, I have reached the island. My favorite place. Where no one is around. Only me and now Rose will be with me too.

In this peaceful place.

As I got out of my boat, I called Nathan and he came to me. 

"Where is Rose?" I asked my best friend as soon as he arrived. He looked at me weirdly but started talking.

"She is in the room with no windows. She tried to escape, so I took and locked her there." He said and I heard guilt in his voice. "You know, it's not right." I shook my head.

Again.....

"Nathan, everything will be okay. I will talk to her and will tell her everything." I sighed and reassured him. A rush of anger bored deep down into my soul, but I took a deep breath to calm down. Nathan liked Rose as soon as he met her. He must be worried about her, but I will never hurt my Rose. I will show her all the affection she truly deserved. 

"Okay," Nathan spoke and I knew he was not reassured or happy at all. It's done already, I cannot change anything right now. 

"Take my boat and go back to the city." I gave him my key and made my way to the house. Cannot wait to meet my little one. 

I will tell her everything and she will give me a chance. It's easy. But I don't know how she will take all this kidnapping thing in her pretty little head.

Here we go! 

A rush of adrenaline surges through me as I enter my house. It's silent in the big house and I can feel the heavy thuds of my heart pounding in my ears.

I quietly take off my jacket and then walk quietly through the house like a predator on the prowl.

I find her sleeping on the bed. She's laying there so helpless.

She doesn't even know I'm in the room.

I take a knee in front of her and get as close as possible without touching her. She smells like roses and heaven.

She's breathing so softly as she sleeps. 

I drag my eyes all over her flawless skin from her dark brown hair that's draped over the pillows to her plump pink lips that look so tempting.

I watch her sleep for a long time and My fingertips are aching and tingling with the need to touch her soft skin. And that's what I did.

Before I can stop myself, I drag the back of my fingers down her smooth cheek. 

She immediately stirred and I quickly snapped my hand back.  I kissed her forehead and looked at her. She opened her stunning blue eyes and stilled when she saw me. Probably not believing her eyes seeing me here.

I leaned forward and ran my hand along the length of her cheek and plump lips once again. Only this time, her eyes were not closed. They're locked on me with fear. In seconds she shot up on the bed with eye wide.
