Royal Princess: Doted On By The Mafia King

She went to some other cloth store to buy a dress and after a while of searching, she found a cloth she wanted. She bought the cloth and bought a shoe to match along with a purse.

She went to the spa afterwards. She had her hair washed and she also had her hair done. She maintained her hair color but she made it wavy just like her mother's hair and she let the length of her hair go down her back close to her waist.

Liam came to pick her from the building when she was done and he took her to lunch.

Liam staring at her across the table found himself unable to take his eyes off her.. She looked very gorgeous like always but this time, her temperament seemed to have changed totally.

Rose had to try very hard not to blush under his intent gaze as she continued eating her lunch. She wanted to eat food cooked by him but he said he had been too busy and since she was hungry, they should eat in a five star restaurant.

She did not complain but ate the food when it was served.

"You look beautiful," Liam could not hold back his comment anymore as he stared at her.

"I always do," she replied sharply to mask the shock she felt due to his sudden comment. He really shouldn't say things like that out of the blue. They have been together for almost an hour now and he decided to comment in the middle of it all.

"Yes you always do," Liam said with a dotting smile. He could not help but think back to the little Rosaline who he tried so hard to help when she was traumatized by the accident.

"Hmm," Rose said and continued eating. She also wanted to compliment his always perfect appearance in return for his compliment but the words were stucked in her mouth and she took a mouthful of her lunch while trying to avoid this gaze without being obvious.

He refilled her glass of water and reached towards her lips to clean an oil stain on it. She literally froze unable to move to stop him as her heart began beating fast.

He leaned close to her making their face only inches apart from each other. Soon they will be joined together as a married couple. She gulped at that thought.

He really looked perfect in his bad boss style with the sleeves of his black shirt rolled up to show his wrist watch and a layer of bracelet with the logo of his company. The first button of his shirt was undone. It did not reveal much but the little her eyes saw was beautiful to her.

"Could you stop staring at me like you are undressing me with your eyes," Liam suddenly asked making her astonished as her body further froze if that was possible.

He pulled his hand back and relaxed on his seat before putting the napkin he used to clean her lip on the table.

"Don't worry, I will show you everything when we get home. That will be when we are already man and wife," he said with an insinuating smile.

That smile made her feel a chilling sensation down her smile making her shiver almost visible. She gulped in a manner that had her coughing soon.

"Hey, are you okay?" Liam who was enjoying the view of his flabbergasted fiancee, had to ask now worriedly as he stood up to give her a cup of water.

He held the glass to her lips and let her drink from it slowly while he gently rubbed her back in a soothing manner.

They stayed that way for a while until Rose was better. She shrugged his hand off her unhappily. "You . . ." she began but bit back her words as she glared at him. He really shouldn't say things like that when she is eating.

"I am sorry. I won't say anything while we eat lunch," he promised her with a pleading smile although it was not hard to miss the slyness in it.

"I going now," she said standing up. How did he expect her to keep eating with him when she just almost choked because of him?

Liam also stood up and followed her out side with a pleased smile. This way, they will be able to finish their marriage procedures early and go back home early.

If only Rose knew what was on his mind.

***

It was all done and legalized. They were officially married and when they got home, Rose went straight to the room to arrange the things she bought.

Liam went to the kitchen and got himself a glass and a bottle of wine. He was happy. After so many years, so many travels through time and space, she was finally his. He finally married his first love. He finally married her!

He wished he could go to the top of the mountain and scream so the world world will hear. He was not sure Rose was happy but he promised to make her happy. He promised himself that before his time is up, he will do all he did to do to ensure her safety.

He was going to make her happy. He was going to make her heart beat for him. He frowned when reality hit him hard as Rose came downstairs to the kitchen with a blank expressionless countenance that made his heart hurt like every drop of blood was getting squeezed out of it.

What if he did wrong by roping her into all this? He did not like this realization at all. He closed his eyes and sighed. Was it the wine? Why did he feel so melancholic and sad?

"Rosaline, do you love me?" he suddenly asked as he watched the wine swirl in the glass as he shook the glasses slowly.

Rose felt her heart stop when she heard his question. She frowned and look at him from the fridge she about to open.
