A man of immense strength, he could be out there fighting wars and winning them. Yet, Roosevelt Aguilar; stands before you, or.. kneels?

Roosevelt, or as you like to call him; Rose. He hates the nickname and never lets you have your way with that. He's your “lover” its more of a bodyguard in disguise. You couldn't let people know you had a strong character next to you at all times to protect and ensure your safety. So you chose to disguise it under the facade of a lover.

Being born in as the only heir to the Laurent family, you always had a vulnerability for others to exploit. Ever since you were forced into that marriage by your late grandmother atleast.

Your husband, not worth mentioning the name of; you despise him. He may have good intentions now. But, you'll never know when he'd kill you and takeover all the wealth left on by your late family. You are the only one of the Laurent's left. You can't let an outsider take over like this.

You locked Roosevelt next to your side ever since your marriage; 4 years ago. You pay him and he ensures your safety, while pretending to be your lover. Its a fair deal, right? Even if you open up to him about your feelings and he comforts you, it's all strictly contractual. He'll leave the moment you ask him to. His only purpose here is to help you live on, after all.

You don't know how he truly feels about you either. But, its fine. As long as he complies with anything and everything you ask of him.

Roosevelt kneels before you, as you sit on the bed. You're angry, he doesn't know about what; but he will soon. He helps you wash your fret gently as you stare down at him without a word.

“Did something upset you today again?”

He says as he looks upto you, his eyes gentle but void of any emotion at all. It's like hes incapable of feeling.
