One job she had.
It was only one, yet she messed it up. Why did she let her emotions get best of her?
She knew she was quite a sensitive and emotional person.
Even before she gets a chance to apologize, Sergio's laughter cuts her short.
He seems to get everyone's attention as everyone stops to see what was happening.
Rosie bites her lip nervously, before looking at her own master
As usual Silas has his blank face on.
' does he have a facial paralysis?'
She wonders
" I like this one " Sergio says as if he was shopping for something
Rosie almost scoffs, are all rich people this obnoxious?how can he speak as if she was not just there.
" Then I can introduce her to everyone " Silas says flatly
Sergio scoffs " no "
" I wasn't asking" Silas snapped
" Silas, it's going to take more than this to convince me." He chuckles " ahh meanwhile, why don't you two drop by for breakfast tomorrow?"
" I will be busy " Silas rolled his eyes
" Then Mrs Luciano here will not have any problems attending, lest I send my men to bring her"
Rosie involuntary moved closer to Silas .
Silas scoffed at his father
" I dare you" Silas spat
The air was quite tense and the glared between son and father made it even more awkward, not only to everyone else but to Rosie too.
Silas turned to Rosie she looked rather uncomfortable, was she in fear for her life?, didn't she know he protected what was his?
He cleared his voice
" Everyone, this lady here beside me.." he pulls her closer to him.
" Is my wife, I owe no one an explanation who, why and how"
if Rosie thought Silas was scarier before the right now, it was just terrifying. He wasn't yelling nor screaming, but very sinister, low and warningly. And she did not wish to be the one by the end of that warning
" I will not tolerate anyone who tries to touch what is mine. " He finishes and the same eerie silence proceeds until a slow song starts and Silas pulls Rosie away.
" Stay put, I have a short meeting with Sergio." He does not speak further but leaves her there
It was better at first when people gave her occasional glances, eight now she even got some dirty glares.
" Not very magical is it...?" Paolo comes over
She almost starts crying but holds it back " this is the worst ball I have ever been to" she tells him
Paolo chuckles '' hold on to that thought, there are many more to come"
Rosie sighs sadly " more?"
Paolo nods with a small smile
" Apparently Anna likes everyone except me" she sniffles
" Hmm I have picked on that" he said " she keeps glaring at you"
" Can't I just go home, I am spooked out" she complained
" Hold on a bit more miss Hunter, I will go out on a word or two to Mr Luciano" he said as he left her standing there.
Rosie knew she had nothing to do until then, so she decided to move closer to the deserts table, she did not have an appetite before because of the nerves but after listening to all that rich people talk about themselves and their growing money, adding up with their dirty glares she felt like she could wat a whole turkey of they'd let her.
Silas had told her it would be a short meeting, but it turned out to go on and on, soon she needed to stop eating and get off those heels.
" So you are the infamous Mrs everyone keeps speaking about"
Now what,she really needed some peace that's why she got out. But then she had been captured by the scenery and kept standing there.
She turned with a sigh " look, I just want to be alone." She told the man that approached her.
The man scoffed, " oh come on,we all know it's more than that"
Rosie scoffed, the man Infront of her looked oddly familiar, but she did not pay attention much yesterday so she did not remember much.
Apart from snobby attitude that she concluded all Lucianos had it and the intimidating height , he was also slurring so she knew better than to argue with a drunk.
" Please go " she said brushing him off
But apparently her scoff might have irritated the man
" You might think that having Silas at your side is everything huh?! You little gold digging slut"
Rosie actually laughed " what is wrong with you rich people the world does not revolve around you"
She turns to leave him there , it was obviously not even safe for her to be here alone at that time.
What a crazy family ..
She thought.
Not even before she could finish her thoughts, she felt like flying, then
Splash!
She was in the freezing cold water
She looked up to glare at the man, but he was already doing that,
He stood looking down at her in that freezing pool. His eyes dark as the night...
" Why don't you run back where you came from. Or next time it won't be a pool you fall in to"
As his cool heels walked of, Rosie's vision blurred with tears...
Just at that moment she realised just what scary and terrifying game she was playing.
Her dress now drenched and with all that lace seemed to pull her down being extra heavy.
The cold water did not make it easier, just as she wanted to swim out, her legs get muscle cramps. It would be fruitless to scream because that would just get Silas' attention. And she would be punished even more.
She sobbed in pain,
She could not even move...
What a pathetic way to die,
She pities herself.
And everything just seems to pull her down.
' Maybe dying wouldn't be so bad '
So she stops fighting to stay up, and let's go
♥️♥️♥️♥️
