Chapter:- Nine

Third person's pov-

After taking a quick shower and changing into some comfortable clothes , Andrea, was sitting on his bed with his laptop on his lap checking some work. First aid kit was on his left side on the bed and there was a glass of milk in a tray on the night stand waiting for Rose.

Its because Andrea, figured out that maybe because of fear and exhaustion Rose,didnt wanted to eat anything but that doesn't mean that he would let her sleep with an empty stomach. So, after getting out of the shower he went to kitchen downstairs to get this for her.

He could have called a maid too but it was too late so all maids and workers had left to their respective rooms in the building behind the Mansion. Jessica was waiting just because of his order .

After about 20 minutes of Andrea, sitting there and typing on the laptop like a crazy, he stopped when he heard the bathroom door open. He raised his eyes from the screen to look at his princess.

He raised an eyebrow when his gaze met with Jessica,who smiled while biting down at her lower lip. Her eyes take in the appearance of the masculine man sitting on the bed infront of her. Andrea,noticed that and took a sharp breath to control his anger.

He didnt want any drama right now because it was already enough late also, he had a hectic day today so he just wanted to have some rest. He cleared his throat to grab her attention and her eyes raise to meet his dark ones and here she visibility gulped when she saw his pissed expression.

"Where is she?" He asked closing his laptop and putting it on the place. He walked towards her with a tilted head and a sharp look.

"She...she is here" she replied hurriedly and breathlessly then went back in the bathroom to get Rose.

Andrea heard some shuffling inside the bathroom and there comes a sleepy looking Rose,almost tripping on her feets. Andrea stared at her cute little puffy cheeks and that frown on her sleepy face .

She looked at him after stoping in front of him and a cute kitten like yawn left her mouth. She jumped into his arms putting her whole weight on him. Andrea,caught her before she could fell and picked her up in his arms.

"Principessa careful!" He scolded with a stern look on his face but she didn't bother to even look at him and snuggled further into his warm chest . Andrea, sighed and looked at Jessica,who was glaring daggers at the little girl in his arms.

" Shouldn't you be out now" he said with a tilted head and stone cold face. She flinched at the harsh tone and nodded before running out of the room. Andrea stared at her fading figure with his clenched jaw.

"Fucking bitch" he grumbled under his breath which earned a whine from Rose.

"Shh...shh" he bounced her slightly and walked back to the bed putting Rose,on it who whined at the loss of contact.

"Shh baby i am her let me just get your milk hmm" he said with a soft voice which was kinda odd for him . Ofcourse he is a freaking mafia boss , not use to this kind of behaviour and interactions.

Rose's droopy eyes followed him when he walked from one side to other side of the bed to pick up the milk glass. He sat on the bed and held

it out for her. Rose, stared at him for some seconds and then her eyes shifted to the glass which he was holding for her.

She puffed her cheeks and looked up at Andrea through her lashes which made him frown in confusion .

"Baby take it" he said slightly moving the glass. Rose, frowned and puffed her cheeks even more this time hitting her feet on the bed.

"Tiwed" she murmured and huffed looking away from him.

Andrea's jaw was clenched and his free hand was twitching because of her bratty behaviour but he sucked it all up and placed the glass on the night stand again.

He pulled her by holding her by her waist and put her on his lap facing sideways. She giggled at the sudden action and looked up at him who was staring at her with almost no emotion on his face. He picked the glass back and hold it near her mouth, Rose , started to drink the milk hurriedly.

His upper lip tilted into a smirk when he realised that he was right ,she was hungry. After finishing her glass of milk Rose, let out a cute yawn again and laid her head on Andrea's shoulder closing her eyes.

Andrea stared down at her with an unknown emotion. It was new to him and he was really confused at the fact that why he got so attached to this little girl just in two to three weeks.

He was not someone who easily let people come close to him and he doesn't posses any kind of emotions afterall thats the reason he was known as sicko by the dark world. His train of thought got interrupted when Rose, snuggle into him, her rosy lips pressed in his chest now.

She was asleep.

Andrea, smiled slightly at her cute antics and laid her down on the bed after putting the glass back in the tray.

He sighed and picked up the first aid kit to treat her bruises. He slowly and gently applied some antiseptic to her bruises and applied a bandage on her arms, back side of her left hand, her forehead and absolutely her knees which were worse than any other bruise on her body.

Andrea, saw that her palms were bruised too this only signify that she fell multiple times on the hard surface or someone might be dragging her.....or it- Andrea stopped his thoughts by shaking his head and putting the first aid kit back into the drawer with a long sigh.

He walked towards the door to close it and switched off the lights. He took of his shirt in frustration or i say impatience and threw it on the floor before sliding beside her on the bed and pulling her to his chest.

He was impatient to know that what exactly happened with her and why she was so scared.?

He let out an irritated groan and pushed his face into her neck to block all those horrible thoughts. He let out a deep breath .

"Good night cupcake" he murmured in her neck and drifted off to sleep because of all the heaviness in his body and head .

"Night dada" that little voice spoke with a slight smile on her lips after he fell asleep.
