Rose closed her eyes and sighed loudly. The tears streamed down her face. She now knew that she would be alright. Seth saw Rose sitting outside the building on the curb with an unknown woman and flung the door open. He didn’t even care to shut the door. He just ran to her and, with a slam dunk, threw himself on her.

His one touch and Rose broke down. She hugged him tightly and wailed as loudly as she could. Seth pulled her as close to him as possible. He could feel her shaking with anger and pai

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Twenty

    Severina had no answer for Kingsley. Even Emerson was looking at both of them with confused eyes. That girl saw everything, experienced everything, she saw Kingsley dying, she held him in her arms, she saw the blood flowing, she heard the gunshots, she saw two dead bodies, yet she denied seeing anything.“I… I really don’t know,” said Severina.“What about the hospital?” asked Emerson.“Hospital? What about it?” asked Severina.“We brought her here. That’s why her friends must have reported her missing. What did she say, where was she, and why?” asked Emerson.“Oh! According to my men, she said that she was not feeling well in the morning. She said something about a panic attack,” said Severina.“Panic attack?” asked Kingsley, worried.“I don’t know anything about that. No one knows. You know medical history is classified. No one will tell you anything about anyone’s medical history. Whether she was telling the truth or lying to my men about that, I have no idea,” said Severina.“But y

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Brat or Cruel

    Kingsley sighed loudly and moved his head softly to adjust it on the pillow. He kept his eyes closed and avoided looking at Emerson as he knew that Emerson was going to tease him again.“At least look at her man!” sniggered Emerson.Kingsley opened his eyes in a swift motion and stared at Emerson. “I knew it! I knew it! You cannot keep your mouth shut, can you?” growled Kingsley. He was angry, but that made Emerson laugh.“You don’t look at beautiful women. How are you going to fall in love? How are you going to get married?” teased Emerson. “Do you want to remain a virgin all your life?”“Shut up!!!” shouted Kingsley. “I have carefully curated this persona that I am a playboy and ruthless in bed. Don’t damage my name!! You idiot!!”“Oh, sorry! Right, the playboy!” laughed Emerson.Kingsley let out a cold sigh. “Anyway, I am already in love, and no one can take her place.”“What if your Rose is ugly or overweight or a fool? What will you do then? Your wife must know the ins and outs of

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Added Bonus

    Emerson sighed after hearing Kingsley’s words. He knew that he was not only finding Rose for himself but also for his whole family. Everyone had waited for centuries to find that girl. Not only to give her the life she deserved, but also to keep her safe. A danger was looming over her head. An old enemy was hiding in the shadows to get to her. And he was not going to stop.“I wish that you find your Rose, King! I really wish!” said Emerson.“Yeah, let’s hope this time we get the good news!” Kingsley sighed too. He finally closed his eyes and decided to rest for a few hours. The whole hospital was crawling with Dia Lucrii. He knew he would be safe, but his dream of sleeping was crushed by the arrival of his doctor, Ernesta Cannon.“Mr Aguilar! Heard you regained consciousness and then went for a walk. Is that right?” said Ernesta and walked near Kingsley as if she was simply gliding on the floor. The ugly brown scrubs could not diminish her beauty. Her shoulder-length burgundy hair was

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Best Friend

    Kingsley first gritted his teeth in anger. He didn’t like Emerson noticing every tiny thing about him. But that was obvious. They had been friends since they were teenagers and were trained together to lead Dia Lucrii. One became the boss, and the other became his right hand. They were like two peas in a pod. They were best friends, best fighters, best marksmen and did everything together.He also hated the fact that a girl was affecting him to this extent. All his life, his heart had been searching for Rose; his heart belonged to Rose. And he hated the fact that some unknown girl was making him jealous and angry. Only his Rose could do that to him. No one else could.He sighed loudly and, without looking at Emerson, replied, “I don’t know. Trust me, I, too, hate the fact that I got jealous. I didn’t like it when he talked about you falling for her. Even if she is not my Rose, I don’t want anyone falling for her.”“What? Why?” asked Emerson.“I don’t want an innocent girl to get roped

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Sorry Guard

    Kingsley didn’t know why he felt jealous after hearing what Shannon just said. He didn’t know who Rose was or if she even was his Rose. He lost his Rose when she was merely four years old. She was a cute little kid who always kept fighting with him. She could not even pronounce his name correctly.Whenever they would meet, they would always fight. And when they would be separated, they would cry, saying that they missed each other. As Rose was younger than him, he used to give in to every one of her demands. She would sit on his chest, grab his hair and yank on it, and he would just end up laughing at her. Because after hurting him, she herself would end up crying. And the gold in her eyes would become more prominent.He still remembered her chubby cheeks, her bob haircut, her tiny fingers, her wails, her giggles, her little body, her little feet. And now that sweet girl must have grown. He had been searching for her for years. When he was a kid, Egbert used to look for her. In the mea

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Powerful Family

    Emerson was looking at Kingsley while he was busy talking to Deep. He informed Kingsley about everything his team had already done. They all kept walking behind Shannon to the security room. As it was situated in a quiet corner of the basement level 1, they had to get inside an elevator.“So, everything in that bakery is fine now?” asked Kinsgley.“Yes!” sighed Kingsley.Emerson then took out his phone and dialled Liliana’s number. Within seconds, she picked up the phone.“Oh, so you remember me now?” snapped Liliana. She didn’t wait for any greetings.“I always remember you, Lili darling!” mocked Emerson.“You son of a bitch! You always remember me when you have some work. What is it this time?” snapped Liliana, making Emerson laugh.Kingsley jerked the phone away from Emerson and spoke, “Liliana!” She immediately stiffened after hearing his authoritative voice. He was not rude; he was just nonchalant.“Boss!” said Liliana. Everyone could hear her standing straight with one word.“I h

    Rose stretched her arms and pulled her blanket closer to her neck. She shifted to her side and, while keeping her eyes closed, yawned loudly. She knew she woke up even before her alarm could go off. She was too excited to go back to sleep. All night, she kept dreaming about Piers.She had finally s

    Emerson was driving the car and kept giving the reports about patients lying in his car to the doctor.“Maybe the shock was too much. Okay, I will get everything ready. When will you reach?” asked Ernesta.“Five more minutes!” said Emerson and sped up the car. “You know his blood group, right?”“I

  • Replacement Bride: His Rose   The Fainting

    Tears could not stop falling from Rose’s face. She had her body thrown over Kingsley’s body. She was surrounded by men with guns in their hands and no way to save or protect Kingsley or herself. All she could do was plead. But would pleading work with heartless gang members?The man standing at the

    Kingsley’s eyes flickered, and he opened them. He grabbed Rose’s hand and again said, “Rose!” and finally lost his consciousness.“No, no, please, please, wake up! Wake up!” sobbed Rose. But she made sure that the pressure on Kingsley’s wound was tight. She was not letting even a drop fall from the
