Taste of lust

chapter 35

We lost her. Fuck we lost her, how are we going to find her, fucking hell Silvio you will pay for everything.

I sit down stressed about what to do, just then the door slams open and the Russo family comes in, they are in a hurry, and without saying anything Lorenzo hands me his phone

I look up at him confused as I take the phone "Hello?" I hear Xavier's voice from the other side "Xavier, are you okay? Did you escape? are you hurt?!" I ask quickly "Hey relax I'm fine just a few cuts and bruises, nothing bad tho, and yes I did escape, someone named Ryan helped us."

When he said that I nearly lost it "Wait so Rose is with you?" I asked worriedly "Yeah but don't worry we'll come back in a month or so"

" why month and not now?" He sighs "It's quite complicated, Rose is in hospital right now getting treatment, I don't know when exactly she got there but she is probably traumatized by what he did and was going do to her"

" traumatized?" I questioned "Yes she said.. she was raped and abused and she couldn't do anything cause she was chained, after he took off her chains she hurt herself, way more than... than she did before, she keeps apologizing to me even though it's not her fault" he finishes

"Which hospital?" I ask as I get up "Wait, don't tell me you are coming, she will kill me if she sees you " he chuckles "Oh, and why is that?"

" well she just doesn't want anyone seeing her in this state" Gosh can this girl think positive for once  "Okay send me the location I'm coming" 

I say as I hang up "So anything?" Dante asks
" well they are safe and he said it will take them up to a month to come back" Lorenzo took his phone back " I will go meet them, you guys stay here and look over the house, don't say anything to others and if they ask tell them I had an important job" they nod.

I quickly get in the car and open the location Xavier gave, on my way, I brought some flowers and her favorite chocolate and snacks to give her

I also brought her favorite food, I can't wait to see her. If I knew this is how things would end up I would have never taken her with me.

I park my car and walk inside the hospital "Yes, how can I help you?" A woman I'm her thirties asks with a smile " Yes, I'm here to see Rose Aaron Hudson"

" just a moment please" I nod " alright looks like she is in room number 204 on the second floor"

I thanked the woman and got in the elevator, before going into her room I prepared myself mentally and physically, when I opened the door I saw Xavier and..... Ryan.

" well I think we should leave them alone for a while," Xavier says walking towards me and hugging me "Glad you are safe"

"Oh believe me I will never die until I know that my sister is in the right person's hand" he smirks "Well then see ya" he leaves, Ryan followed him but before he leaves he whispers "How are you old friend" his voice was filled with sarcasm but I ignore it as he shut the door behind him.

Then my eyes land on her, the most beautiful and precious girl, my heart melts as soon as I see her smile "Are you just gonna stare at me or give me those things?" She laughs softly

I think my heart is going crazy " Of course, Cara Mia" I walk towards her and set the thing down on the table beside her "How are you feeling" I ask as I hand her the snacks "Well I'm just glad that I was only there for a day tho it was still bad"

Don't worry I will kill every single man that touched you, I think to myself." let's not talk about that I'm feeling better right now and I don't want to ruin it" she says

I take her hand in mine " I'm sorry, I will never take you any other mission" I apologize "Don't apologize it wasn't your fault, everything that happened was unexpected" she says so sweetly that my heart just melts

"But still-" I was interrupted by her putting her hand on my mouth " You talk so much that my ear hurts" she complains

She was so close that I could feel her minty breath on my face, I slowly took her hand away
, she sucks in a breath, our gaze clashes

She stares at my lips, then back at my eyes, I shouldn't but I want to kiss her so bad "Has anyone ever told you, your scars are just as beautiful as you are" She looks taken back by my words "Why would anyone say that?" She frowns

"Because they have stayed longer with you than anyone else ever did, they hold the memory of what you've been through, how you suffered from all stuff, each scar has its meaning," I say as I pull her close by her waist to my lap

"No matter how much you tell someone about what and how you feel, they will never understand how you feel, living in a toxic and abusive house is the worst thing anyone would ever want, most of the people that went through all that either killed themselves or never recovered from trauma, you listen to others and confront them but who is there for you when you need them ?"

She says as she lays her head on my chest and I tell her "You are stronger than you think you are, no one can ever break what's already broken but there will always be that one person who will help you to heal from everything and help you build a new life with meanings" I hold her tightly as I say

" let's stop this, we should do something?" She looks up at me and says "Like what?"

"Anything you have in your mind?" I ask "Well the only thing I want to do now is sleep, I feel tired" she yawns "Okay," I say as she lays

As I was about to leave she held my hand " Where are you going? I don't want to be alone" She sits up quickly with panic in her eyes

" sleep with me here, there is enough space for two people" Her cheeks go bright red "Don't worry I'll be here, let me just take my hoodie off"

She nods. I wasn't wearing a shirt under "Can I have it?" She points at the hoodie " Of course, here you go" She takes off her shirt, there are just so many bruises and cuts

She quickly puts the hoodie on because she is only in her bra 

I slide in beside her, it's currently midnight, and I need to talk to her brother but it can wait.

She turns to face me "What?" She asks as I stare at her "I want to kiss you" I don't know why I just said that "You don't have to ask" she replies, it surprises me that she would.

Without any further thought, I smash my lips on hers, if this is what paradise would feel like then I'll never want to leave, her sweet chocolate taste and her soft roses smell just make me want to do more but I stop myself, I can wait until she gets better.

We pull away panting, we were both in lack of words "Well.. I.." she mutters, I chuckle "Good night mi amore" I pull her close to me so her head is resting on my chest "Good night trouble" she whispered before falling asleep

For the first time in my entire life, I would finally get some sleep without worrying. Now that I have her close to me.
