Promise

Thirty-Four

Rosalee's POV-

"Okay Rosalee, start whenever you are ready and try to not leave anything out. Start from the day that they took you." 

I took a deep breath before beginning to speak.

"After you all left, I just took a shower and was relaxing. It was maybe an hour later when I heard a knock on the door. I was so excited, I thought it was you." I paused looking up at Harry. "I didn't think clearly until my hand had already turned the knob and I realized that you wouldn't have knocked. But it was too late, Axel came busting in and I tried to run but I couldn't, he grabbed me..." I closed my eyes for a moment trying to keep the tears in. When I opened them again I could see the anger in Harry's eyes.

"Harry I am so so sorry, I-I I wasn't thinking!" I hurried my words out so quickly, worried that Harry was going to lash out on me any moment.

"No, stop that Rosalee. None of this is your fault, I'm not mad at you." He wiped my tears away as his eyes softened while looking down at me. I closed my eyes, not wanting to talk about any of this anymore, but I know that they were going to make me. 

"Rosalee, did you see anyone else other than Axel that you recognized?" Liam asked while typing things down on his laptop. 

"Not at first. I just saw Axel and two men that I didn't know. But before I passed out I saw my dad. He was also there when I woke up." 

"How were you treated by your family Rosalee?" Leo asked.

"They were acting so different than how they normally acted with me. They were so cold, and mean. I didn't even recognize the people in front of me. I don't know what happened while I was passed out but when I woke up I was covered in bruises and my whole body ached. I'm sure it wasn't them who hit me, I don't think they would hit me." I tried to convince myself that even thought they were being so mean to me, that they would never hit me. 

Leo looked at me with pity in his eyes before nodding his head and whispering to Liam. Liam just nodded his head and continued typing. 

"What happened after you woke up?" Liam asked. 

"My dad came in and was talking about my fiance who was on his way to get me, and told me that I would never see Harry again. And then once he left, two men came in and untied me from the chair and handcuffed me to a pole. I stayed there for days and I only got one meal every day. They would come in and throw it at me and then they would make fun of me for telling them that Harry was going to come save me." I stopped talking when the glass bowl sitting on the table in front of me was smashed to the ground by Harry. Everyone's heads snapped over to look at him as my mouth fell open. 

"I swear to god I'm going to kill those sick fucks! I am going to bash every single one of their heads-" Harry begin as he paced back and fourth yelling but he stopped when his eyes met mine. 

He brought his hands up to cover his face for a second before he bent back down next to me. I could still see the anger burning inside of him as he tried to desperately to hide it from me. 

"I'm so sorry I let this happen to you Rosalee, I always told you that I would keep you safe but I failed. I-"

"Lets finish this up, shall we Harry?" Leo spoke up, interrupting Harry. I heard a deep growl emit from Harry but before he could say anything, Liam spoke. 

"What about the day that we found you? Can you tell us anything about that?" 

I let out a sigh before I told them. 

"I-It was Grayson. He was my friend. I thought he was going to save me but it turned out that after I was taken by you guys, the original buyer had backed out, and my dad influenced Grayson to become my next buyer. H-He sounded absolutely mad and out of his mind. He said that he had always been in love with me and now he was finally going to have me. I tried to get away from him but he wouldn't stop hitting me. A-And and then he-he tried to, he tried to rape me. He- he raped me" I sobbed as I finished telling them the last part. 

Harry's arms soon wrapped around my body and held me tightly as I cried. He pulled me into his lap and rocked me softly while he stroked my hair. 

"Shhhh, it's okay Rosalee. I took care of that sick bastard and I am never going to let anyone harm you ever again. You don't ever have to worry about any of that happening again. I promise you, I am not going to fail you again."

I turned my head so the side of my face was resting against Harry's chest. I looked at the other guys in the room while trying to calm myself. When I looked at Leo, I watched as he rolled his eyes at Harry. Why would he do that?

"I think we are done for today boys." Harry said which caused all of the guys to scurry out of the room, leaving me alone with Harry. 

"Now listen here sweetheart, I am going to run you a hot bath and make you a cup of tea. And then once you are done with that we are going to lay out here and watch movies all night. You don't need to worry about anything so we are going to have a very relaxing night. How does that sound baby?"

Harry's nicknames for me made a grin break out across my face. I quickly nodded my head at him and his sweet plan for us tonight. He sent me a cheeky grin and disappeared into the bathroom. 

The short absence of Harry made me miss him, even though I knew he was only in the other room. I have become so attached to him, and every time that I try to push my feelings away, they only become stronger. I have never had feelings for any boy like this before but when I am with Harry I feel safe and even loved. 

But am I in love? 

I don't even know what being in love is supposed to feel like. And I am sure I am not supposed to be in love with a man who technically kidnapped me. But I think I am..

I think I am in love with my kidnapper.
