Chapter 1: Saved
I left Vera's house and I couldn't avoid feeling jealous but I just tried ignoring it. It was dark and cold outside; the streets were empty so I hurried trying to avoid the new feeling that was invading me 'fear'. While I was walking as fast as I could I kept thinking that my wedding with Royce was only a week away.
"I don't want to have the wedding indoors" I said to myself as I looked at the sky. I stopped for a minute, delighted with the view of the beautiful stars shinning above me. I smiled and start walking again it was getting colder and I had to hurry if I didn't want to catch a cold.
I remained thinking about the weather and the wedding, I was going to become Royce's queen soon and I would be the happiest woman in the whole world I would be as lucky as Vera. Even if I was getting all I ever wanted I wasn't happy as I thought I would be and that was something I was worried about.
I was a few streets from my house when I heard the laughs. Under a broken streetlamp there was a cluster of men, all of them drunk. In that moment I wished that I'd called my father to escort me home but in that moment it seemed silly, the way was so short.
"Rose!" Royce yelled and the others laughed. I didn't realize that the drunks were so well dressed. It was Royce and some of his friends, sons of other rich men.
I was scared; the sight of my fiancé totally drunk was something I didn't wanted to see and less when I was alone at night. I tried to ignore his voice and take the other street so I could avoid them but as I walked I heard them following me and laughing too loud. I began breathing loudly and I wanted to disappear in that moment. I realized with the shouts of the men what they had planned on doing with me. A monstrosity , I cried begging God to give me enough strength but I just couldn't I tripped myself when I entered in a closed alley and I cursed myself.
"Rose! Show us what you look like, Rose!" Royce's voice was louder than before and I knew that this was the end; they were going to succeed on their plan.
"Miss Hale" I screamed when I heard the voice behind me but this was not Royce's voice or the ones of his friends but a different voice. I turned around and saw a big man "follow me" I don't know why but I trusted him maybe it had something to do with the fact I was being chased by men who were drunk, I don't care I just know that I trust him. He took my hand and guided me into a tavern we walked between the people who was in there and we arrived to the other side he opened a hidden exit and guided me to a house and then I recognized where I was.
"Thanks" I murmured to my savior "but this isn't my house"
"I know Miss Hale" he said opening the door of his house for me "my father and I will take you personally to your house in our car it's safer than walking" he explained
"Thanks, Mr. Cullen"
"Please, call me Emmett" he added with a warm smile as he guided me to his living room. Now with the light that was inside the house I could see Emmett completely he was well dressed, he was tall and muscular with dark curly hair, and deep brown eyes. "Please take a seat I'll be back in a minute"
Just in the minute that Emmett left a girl entered into the living room. I recognized this girl I saw her, a couple of times at the dress store. She was petite and skinny, her hair was short, and pitch black, she was always smiling and tonight wasn't the exception.
"Hi" she said giving me a hug "I'm Mary Alice Brandon Cullen well actually future Mrs. Whitlock" she corrected herself with a flashing smile "you must be Rosalie Hale, Royce King's fiancé" I shivered when I heard his name "you must be freezing come and take a sit next to the fire that would help"
"Thanks Miss Cullen" I answered as politely as I could.
"Call me Alice, please. So what brings you here tonight?" What was with this family that insisted on being called by their names and not their last names as any other person? I was about to explain everything when I heard a voice.
"What were you thinking, Emmett?" I could tell that the man who was talking was really upset "Rosalie Hale?" I hated the way he said my name, like there was something wrong with me.
"I couldn't let her suffer in that way!" I could hear Emmett's voice "You know that King is a bastard and had killed woman before" I didn't knew that. What am I going to do? I couldn't get married with a man I feared. I had to talk with my father about this.
"Of course he couldn't leave her" a woman agreed and I was about to go out running before there was a fight because of me "Oh, hello dear" a woman with caramel-colored hair and heart-shaped face with dimples entered into the room and gave me an apologetic smile knowing that I heard their little argument "I'm Esme Cullen my husband will take you home right now he went for the car"
"Thanks, Mrs. Cullen"
"No problem dear" in that moment a tall muscular man with bronze hair entered in the room with a coat in his arms "Edward, are you leaving?"
"Yes, mom Bella must be worried. I told her I wasn't going to take long" he looked at me with hate?
"How is she? She must be thrilled with the idea of having a baby" I could tell that Esme was as thrilled as her daughter-in-law.
"She's doing great and both of us are happy" he hugged his mother and then turned and smiled at his sister "see you tomorrow evil pixie"
"Love you too Eddie" she smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He turned around and was about to go out
"Edward, manners" Esme scolded him.
"Good evening Miss Hale" he said turning around and then he went out.
"Don't pay attention to Edward" Alice said rolling her eyes "he's a jerk when he wants to"
"Alice!" Esme said and I giggled
"Excuse me, Miss Hale we are ready" Emmett said at the door of the leaving room
"Thank you. I hope to see you again" I said to Esme and Alice
"Come whenever you want or maybe I can go to your house" Alice said with a childlike tone
"Yes, of course. You are always welcome at my house, all of you" I walked toward the door and followed Emmett. It was snowing outside.
"Here have my coat" he put it around my shoulders and guided me to a black car "I hope you don't mind I take you home my father had to go. Someone needed him at the hospital"
"Of course not, thank you very much" He helped me get into the passenger seat. The way home was silent and short "I have to thank you once more Mr. Cullen" I was looking at the floor because I knew that if I looked at his eyes I would start crying
"Rosalie" he startled me when he said my name he made me look into his eyes "maybe this sounds inappropriate and I'm sorry but you don't have to thank me anything saving you from that…" he stopped and take a deep breath "I would save you a thousand times if it's needed too"
"I-I don't know what to say" I was blushing and my heart was pounding so hard that I thought that it was going to pop out of my chest.
"Don't say anything" he took my hand in his and kissed it. He went out of the car and helped me get down. I walked to the door of my house and knocked. The maid opened the door and seemed relieved to see me alive
"Mr. Hale! Miss Rosalie is here!" she shouted and my father appeared at the door and hugged me
"Rosalie Lillian Hale, I was so worried" my father said but then he saw Emmett and looked confused
"Dad, let me introduce you to Mr. Emmett Cullen. He found me and brought me home"
"Please, come inside. I don't know how to thank you Mr. Cullen"
"There is no need Mr. Hale now if you excuse me I can't stay any longer. Good night sir, Miss Hale" he bowed and headed to the door and thanks God that my father talked before I did
"Mr. Cullen, please come and have lunch with us tomorrow it would be my pleasure to have you as a guest"
"Thank you I'll be here at 12"
"Miss Alice Cullen is invited too of course I would enjoy your sister's company" he smiled and got out of the house.
"What were you thinking Rosalie?" my father asked as soon as Emmett left the house "Walking alone, at night! What if Royce had seen you with Mr. Cullen?"
"That's all you care about?!?" I was so angry now, worrying about appearance when his daughter could be… I tried not to think about it I hated the thought of what could have just happened "Royce actually saw me tonight"
"What?" he was shocked
"He was drunk waiting for me with his friends" the tears began to fall down as the memory filled my mind with images of the events of the night
"What are you talking about Rose?" my father hugged me trying to calm me. My voice was broken with the tears and I was sobbing
"I won't marry him" I managed to say the words.
"What?!?!?" my father let me go and began pacing back and forth across the living room "you can't do this. You have to marry him!"
"I can't!" I cried louder and went running upstairs and locked myself in my room. I could hear my father's footsteps following me and he tried to open the door
"The marriage is settled and you'll marry him like it or not" he shouted and he kicked the door. My father never talked to me in that way and I knew that he was talking seriously. I will marry Royce King even if that meant he had to drag me down the aisle.
So what do you think??? do you like it???
Please Review ;)
