ROSE AFTER TITANIC
Chapter Thirteen
Nathan walked up Sam’s, Cal’s
twin brother, living quarters on the fourth floor of the Hockley's six story
mansion.
"I need you to take your
brother's place for awhile."
"Where is he?"
"I have him and Rose locked in
different parts of this mansion. I want you to go where Rose is being
held."
"And take my brother’s
place?"
"Yes. By the time she
realizes you’re not Cal, it will be to late for her," Nathan said. Sam
laughed and headed for Rose’s room.

Rose was trying to escape from
the rope that tied her hands together when Cal's twin walked into the room.
"Cal, I am so glad to see
you."
"Rose, you are going to
divorce Jack."
"What?"
"You heard me."
"Cal, what has gotten into
you? I thought you changed."
"Well, you thought wrong,
sweetpea. You’ll be mine again soon enough."
"I’ll never be yours,
Cal."
Rose finally managed to free
herself from the rope and tried to make a run for it, but Sam caught her and
twisted her arm behind her back. "You will divorce Jack. Is that
clear?"
Rose didn’t say anything. Sam
slapped her hard across the face. "I said, is that clear?"
"Yes," Rose said,
scared and shocked at his actions, not knowing that it wasn’t Cal, or that Cal
was being locked up until he changed back. Sam laughed and left the room,
locking it behind him. Rose sat back against the wall and cried, thinking about
Cal changing through the years and how they finally had all gotten along.
