47 - Painful Memories

Justin POV

Rosette bolted past me, tears running down her face causing my heart trying to burst from my chest as I ran after her. Nyx had told me ahead of time that if she was there she would have to be cruel to her to get her to leave so we could go ahead with the plan. I knew what she had meant and I had heard every word. She was a fucking great actress and I was dumbfounded by how genuine she sounded.

She commanded the attention of every single person within hearing range and she put on a show that no one could ever forget. I could only imagine how her man was feeling considering he had a front row seat to her being seductive to distract Roman.

Bringing my attention back to Rosette I watched in horror as she ran into Nyxs' room grabbing onto her suitcase that had been packed, ripping it open and throwing the contents everywhere. She started her rampage through the room, smashing and breaking everything that she could get her hands on all the while screaming about how much of a dirty little whore Nyx was. I chuckled to myself at the thought of Nyx ever being a whore. Snapping out of my thoughts I finally went inside, my hands in my pockets as she stopped abruptly looking up into my eyes in horror.

"Fuck Justin I-" I held up a hand cutting her off and chuckled again, "No explanation needed but why do you even bother with that bastard? You deserve better than to be treated as a bed warmer." I said making my way over to her and pulling her against me holding her tightly. She sighed and pulled away running a hand through her hair.

"It's more out of convenience honestly. I mean I... fuck I don't love him. If i'm being honest I just... I hate that after all these years that bitch can just show up and that was it. He's told me on countless occasions that he had wished that the Goddess chose me. He wanted me by his side and while I don't believe in the Goddess at all, he never gave up in his pursuit to find her. He fucked her up and no matter how hard I tried to send her warning after warning and to keep her the fuck away she never listened. She doesn't even fucking remember me which I find astoudning. I mean... I faked being a highschool student and a damn foster kid just to try and keep her away from him. He's so sick Justin and I just wanted him to get the help that he needed. After Renallia died he was never the same. Nyx is the spitting image of her. Luke didn't help either, filling his head with lies of the Goddess saying that Nyx was his, that it was Ren reincarnated because she was the real Goddess. Luke was a piece of shit that deserved to die and I'm glad I got to do it."

I frowned, this all was true. She had cared enough for my father that she had done so much to stop his crazed state from getting worse even went about trying to drug him but it never worked. He was too far gone to be saved and this was the only way.

"I am well aware of that Rosette. Ren was my mother and watching the cancer kill her slowly was the hardest thing I have ever been through. Regardless you don't even understand what Nyx is capable of doing. Please don't hate her." I said quietly as I watched her narrow her eyes at me.

"Justin what the hell have you done now?" She said glaring up at me and before I had a chance to answer the sound of breaking glass and a shriek sounded from the study. Rosette's eyes widened before she tried to bolt out of the room. I grabbed her wrists and jerked her back into my arms.

"I can't let you leave. I've got to keep you safe just trust me okay?" I said watching her stiffen before she looked up at me with tears in her eyes.

"This is the only way isn't it? And she was just a pawn in your scheme to end it all. Just a way for you to pur Roman out of his misery." She nodded more to herself that to me before smiling a soft sad smile pulling away from me to sit on the bed, wrapping her arms around herself. I sat next to her holding her as we listened to the sounds of guns and shouting ring out before everything became quiet.
