Chapter 255: The Past of Souls
Rosina was breathing heavily when she arrived at her home. She grasped the pendant tightly, holding to it with her dear life.
"This place is safe. No one will find me here," Rosina muttered and looked up at the ceiling made of roots. She couldn’t hear any sound nearby after a few minutes, which made her sigh in relief. She was happy and sad at the same time.
Rosina put her things on the floor before lying on her makeshift bed. She was overwhelmed with emotions that her eyelids wanted to close. Slowly, she was drifting to sleep when a blast erupted, and the room was coated in dust and smoke.
"What the—"Rosina flinched in surprise, and her instinct went into survival mode. She was about to jump back to create a distance when she felt someone hug her waist.
"Rosina!" Draco shouted and tightened his grip, afraid that Rosina would run away from him if he let go.
The smoke vanished, and Rosina could finally see the face of a man she had always yearned for.
"Draco..." Rosina whispered with tears in her eyes. She couldn’t believe that Draco was right in front of him. She was about to hug him when extreme pain was felt where Draco was touching her.
"Get away! AH!" Rosina screamed and pushed Draco away from her forcefully.
Draco was confused at the sudden rejection, but she noticed the smoke from the burnt marks Rosina had attained from her waist. He realized that Rosina’s demon body was rejecting the spark.
"Please, leave. I might hurt you," Rosina muttered with tears in her eyes. It hurt her to drive Draco away when all she wanted was to hug him tightly.
"NO! I’m not leaving you!" Draco shouted, and frustration fell into his body. He wanted to know the truth about Rosina’s past, which led her to become like that. "Tell me, Rosina. What happened to you? I want to know everything, please," he stated with begging eyes.
Rosina sighed in defeat. Even though she had entirely accepted her past. She couldn’t see herself opening herself to Draco since he might leave her once he knew her dark past.
Draco smiled and was about to touch Rosina’s hand, but he stopped before he could. He didn’t want to cause her more pain.
"I know you’re hesitant to tell me about it, but I promise you. I’ll be here to support and listen to whatever you need. I won’t leave you," Draco stated with a sincere voice and action. After all, he had seen a piece of Rosina’s past with Vanda’s help, but he wanted to know what happened afterwards.
"Okay," Rosina replied, looking at her pale, ashy hands. She sighed deeply and forced herself to look into Draco’s eyes as she opened her mouth to speak.
"When I was a child. I was beaten day and night since Cleto didn’t believe I was his child. He put me in a dark room since he hated how I looked. Then someone saved me. I didn’t know who he was or remember what he looked like, but I’m grateful for his help," Rosina smiled at the memory. Although she was still questioning how the man got into her room since nobody knew about it except her family.
Draco couldn’t help but smile. It was when Vanda took him into Rosina’s memory and helped her escape, but he was surprised at the time-lapse of events still connected to the future.
"After that, I ran straight to the open forest. I didn’t have any plans and just pushed right into it until I stumbled into a trap, leading me to the 13th pack’s Castle," Rosina choked and started walking to the table with several fruits. She offered some to Draco, but he refused, ushering her to continue.
"I was ten years old at that time. I was put in a room, secluded from all important places inside the Castle. I met Perise, the Rogue King and Pepe’s father. He taught me about ’love’ gestures, but it was wrong," Rosina paused and faced Draco. It was hard to bring back those heartbreaking memories.
"What did he do to you," Draco asked, hoping it was not the one he was thinking.
Rosina took a deep breath. "He r@ped me... for three years until someone saved me from it. Ambra, your sister by name killed Perise, which set me free from his torment," she said softly.
Draco bit his lips. He felt terrible and guilty for being insensitive to Rosina’s feelings several times without thinking she had it rough. He wanted to hug and shower her with kisses, but he couldn’t.
When Rosina saw that Draco wasn’t saying a word, she continued.
"Then, I returned to the Palecrest pack since I had nowhere to go. I felt that the 12th pack was better than the 13th pack in terms of suffering. I was accepted then, but the treatment was still the same...." Rosina paused and walked in front of Draco.
"I’m sorry for all you have been through," Draco whispered and tried his best not to cry.
"Don’t be, but my story doesn’t end there. Do you want to see it with your own eyes?" Rosina asked for his consent.
"Yes, I want to know everything you give me, Rosina. I’m not afraid to face anything and will stay by your side all through it," Draco whispered with a gentle smile.
"Alright," Rosina nodded before her eye color changed to a bright green. She raised her arms and caressed Draco’s cheeks, making him look into her eyes while ignoring her ache from their touch.
Rosina stared into Draco’s soul and opened the door to her memories, leading him inside.
Draco’s body collapsed into Rosina’s arms. She used strength to drag him into the bed and lay beside him.
"Draco, I don’t know if you will accept me after knowing my past, but I hope you will," Rosina whispered while her consciousness started to fade away.
