The moment a man stood in front of the glass wall and pulled out a grenade Liam designed with the thought of breaking such walls on his mind, Liam knew he must have made a mistake.
***
Rose was busy sobbing but as soon as she saw the intruders, the first she did was to scream but outside the glass wall, her loud scream sounded like a muffled sound.
This was the first time she was faced with such a situation with guns pointed at her. This was not the first time she was in a life threatening situation but she have never had a gun pointed at her but now, she could see a dozen of them.
Knives and other object could cause real damage to a human body but guns, the damages it could cause scared her more than anything. A baton killed her in her past life. A knife almost killed her in this life and now it's a gun. She simply lost all hope of living when she saw the grenade in the hand of one of the men.
She hoped the men before her will be kind enough to start a conversation with her to buy time before Liam's guards arrive. She felt so alone thinking Liam was still unconscious and she was alone with a dozen men who held machine guns she only got to see in movies.
Faced with a scene from a movie, she had no idea on what to do. She looked back at Liam who unknown to her had closed his eyes immediately and groaned in frustration. She did not want anything to happen to both her and Liam but she could not come up with any idea.
She wished she remained in her room and refused to visit Liam. She felt her body shake. Although the glass wall of the room looked thick she had no idea of how well it will be able to withstand attacks from outside.
"It is okay," she heard a male voice promise her and turning, her eyes met Liam's grey eyes which held so much warm she forgot about those outside who wanted her dead. "They are fakes," he said wrapping his hand around her waist from behind.
She was too shocked at first to think of removing his hands but when she felt the warmth from his body sip through her skin, she realized she had been in that position for over five minutes. She cleared her throat awkwardly and began pulling his hand off her waist.
"I am not strong enough to stand on my own, let me use you as a support for a while," he said pleadingly. The warm breathe that blew against her neck and ear as he spoke made her feel so chill she could feel goose bumps appear on her arms. Despite how very self-conscious their position made her, she decided to remain calm.
She refused to accept it as a fact but his hug actually gave her a sense of assurance that nothing was going to happen to her. She was going to be fine since the very dangerous man they came to kill was with her, awake and had the strength to hug her the way he did. "What do we do now?" Rose asked as they watched one of the men walk towards the wall with the grenade in his hand.
"Just wait. Nothing can break this wall," he assured her in manner that did no good.
She felt more scared hearing him sound so sure of how a thick glass wall could protect them from the explosion of grenade or the bullet from a gun. She turned to take a look at his face which made her too close to his face that a pout of her lips will lead to a kiss.
"Hmm," Liam cleared his throat when he felt the temperature of the room get a little hot or perhaps he was the one getting hot. "I can close the curtain if you wish," Liam teased as he glanced as the people watching them as Rose moved so close to him.
" . . ." Rose had no idea what he was talking about or why he sounded like he was teasing her but if he wanted to have the curtain closed then she could only agree since that will be better than facing a dozen men with their cold eyes watching them through the mask they wore while she was in the not so decent position she was in with Liam. She cleared her throat and looked away from him before nodding.
"You need to trust me. Those men are not who they pretend to be. They are just wannabes trying to play a role they are not fit for. They won't be able to break the wall, that grenade is a fake," Liam said as he enjoyed the feel of getting to hug Rose when she was awake and not one of his night sneaky acts.
Those acts were actually nice too but knowing he was hugging her most of the time without her consent, it was not as good as hugging her with her consent when she was awake. When the curtains slide close, Rose pulled Liam's hand off her waist and moved to the bed to avoid Liam and the wall which might get blasted anytime soon.
The small smile Liam wore while hugging Rose disappeared and he was staring at her with sad eyes as he made his way to the bed and sat down.
"Are we just going to sit and wait for them to blow the wall off? I heard you have one of the best guards in the kingdom?" she said with a hint of sarcasm.
Liam gulped. He knew Rose was offended about something he did and he had no idea what it was. He smiled softly as he looked at her. "How did you know I was ill," he asked curiously.
"Leah told me. She told me everything. I got to understand how much becoming king means to you," she said as she watched him closely for a change in his expression that will assure her that he did it to save her life and not saving the ticket he needed to become king.
