A girl was lying on the ground covered in her own blood. Even death couldn't hide her beauty. She was looking like a celestial flower stained with blood. Her pink hair spread on the floor and her pink eyes sparkling like the most precious gems even when her life was fading away. Her red lips looked even more alluring on her pale face.
She was waiting, waiting for that person to come. The person against whom she had fought to death and the only person whom she can trust in the face of death.
*Cough* blood trickled down her lips flowing across her neck creating a breathtaking beauty. Soon the sounds of hurried footsteps echoed in the dark. She turned her head and saw him, the embodiment of darkness who was looking towards her anxiously.
He came towards her and whispered loudly "Rose". "You finally came" she smiled at him softly. He knelt beside her and took her in his arms. "No how is this possible. Who... Who hurt you like this" his voice quivered.
"It's not important" she said slowly.
"Weren't we after each other's life all the time. Now that I will be gone you won't have to fight me anymore."
He hugged her tightly "No No No you have to continue fighting me, nothing will happen to you."
"Reach the top of the world.... Sher" he froze hearing the nickname from her mouth after so many years.
"Wasn't that your wish." she said.
"I won't! I won't listen to you if you aren't there" he said as tears filled his eyes. *Chucke* *Gasp* her breath hitched from pain "Don't cry."
He picked her and stood up as tears dripped from his eyes "Don't worry I'll take you to the hospital now".
Suddenly her head tilted and slid from his shoulder to his chest. He halted as his eyes widened hearing the soft whisper in his ears "Goodbye Asher". He stood there like a statue holding her. After few seconds "Rose" he called out softly to her as if she will open her eyes to look at him.
All of a sudden people rushed in the villa "Boss you are here, leave quickly it was a trap. They knew that you will come to save Miss Ella." Asher looked at him without any emotions as if he would kill him if he came near his Rose. Slowly he walked inside a room and kept Ella on the bed. He kissed her forehead softly and said to her as if she was just sleeping normally "Rest here Rose, I'll come back soon and take you home." His assistant's eyes widened as he looked towards his boss in horror.
Asher walked out of the room and the gentleness in his eyes faded away. He looked like a grim reaper who has come to take people's soul. As soon as he went out he was surrounded by the enemies. Almost 60 men were killed in an instant. Covered in blood he walked towards the last person left. The blood dripped from him forming a trail as he walked. "You were the ones who attacked my Rose" he looked with dark eyes towards the man lying down with his hands and feet twisted in an odd angle.
*Spat* "Who would have thought that the famous Mafia King and Mafia Queen would care about each other so much. Do you want to know why she got hurt. She got injured because of you. You can check your phone." Asher took out his phone and saw the chats sent from his phone to Rose. It showed the address of the villa and a message showing SOS. He soon figured out what happened. Someone sent an emergency message asking for help from his phone. The injured man continued "You know she even got into an accident and was almost on the verge of death after her car crashed into a truck but she still came here. *He broke into a wide grin* After coming here she was careful but hearing your painful voice from inside she rushed in and got hit with a bullet. Oh if you are wondering why there was your voice then let me tell you, our company developed a device which can copy someone's voice accurately including the frequency after all it's difficult to fool you both abnormal people. We especially developed it for this day. Tch~ but who would have thought that you will still be left alive." After he finished speaking he saw that Asher was looking at him without any expression and there was an eerie silence in the air. "You wanted my position right then why did you touch her" he asked in a slow voice slowly coming towards the man lying on the ground. "She must have felt very painful when she got injured in the accident right". He suddenly picked up an iron rod and started beating him up. After few hours the man's bones had turned into mush though he was still alive. "Put him in a grinder machine" ordered Asher as he looked towards his assistant. The assistant gulped "Yes Boss".
Asher returned to the room and carefully picked up Ella and took her back to his mansion. After laying her on his bed he gently cleaned her as if afraid that she would break if he applied any force and then changed her clothes. Then he went to take a shower. After wearing trousers with a bare upper body he laid down beside her and wrapped his arms around her carefully. This continued for many days. He didn't take even a single step out of his room and stayed with Ella all the time even refusing to eat. Slowly his health started deteriorating. Unbeknownst to him Ella was just beside him floating in the air. Seeing him torture himself while accompanying her dead body.
One day when he was lying down beside her holding her in his arms and Ella was lying beside him in soul form, his assistant knocked on his door "Boss I've found someone who claims that he knows a way to bring Miss Ella back." His eyes shot open. There were clearly streaks of red visible in them. He hurriedly opened the door "Where" he stared darkly. "Ju...Just outside" his assistant stuttered.
After reaching the living room he saw an old woman with white hair sitting calmly and looking at him. She said "Do you want to bring her back. (Without even waiting for his reply she continued) But there's a price to pay." "I don't care about the price" he snarled. The woman took out a dagger made of crystal and placed it in his hand. "Your life and your beautiful memories with her, that's what you need to pay" she said this and turned around and walked towards the door. "Why are you helping me."
"I'm not helping you young man, I just can't see that child having such a pure soul vanish just like that."
Asher stared at the dagger in his hand and then went in his bedroom. He walked towards Ella's body. After a long time he said "Rose I found a way to bring you back" he caressed her face. After sitting on the bed he picked her up and kept her on his lap. "How can you think that I will be fine without you" he stared at her with eyes full of obsession and love.
He pointed the dagger towards his chest. Seeing this Ella shrieked "What are you doing Asher, have you gone crazy!!! Put the dagger down." She tried to stop him and snatch the dagger but to no avail as he can't hear her and her hand passed through his.
*Pfft* the dagger tore into his chest as he applied more pressure it stabbed his heart. Blood was dripping from his lips and fell on Ella's face. "No No No stop Asher!! You'll die like this." As if hearing her he said "It's okay Rose even if I will loose my memories, our precious moments and my life it's worth it if you can come back."
He bend down and kissed her lips staining them with his blood "My heart is for you My Rose... My Rosella."
He fell on the bed with her in his arms. Rosella who was crying beside him found her eyes going dark and she lost conscious.
