ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 54
I wake up with a contraction, breathing heavily and humming in pain. King, sleeping in the floor, immediately sits up and turns his attention to me as I rub my stomach. "Are you alright? Is there anything you need?" "Water. Please?" I say, still breathing heavily. He leaves for two minutes and comes back with water and gives it to me, kneeling next to me to make sure I'm okay. As I drink the water, I check the time. "4 A.M. I'm sorry King." I say, closing my water bottle. "It's alright. What was that, by the way?" he asks, rubbing his eyes. "What was what?" I say, putting my water bottle on the nightstand next to me. "This whole thing." I freeze and then nod my head, understanding what he means. "Contractions. My doctor said they'd probably be worse my second pregnancy since I've already been pregnant before." "Oh. Good to know." he says, lying back down on the floor. "King?" I say, looking down at him. "Yeah?" he says, staying still. "Just go and sleep in another room. I'll

2 weeks later ---- "Four visits a month isn't enough for me." Xavier says, kissing my head. "I love you, baby. You be safe, alright?" "Always." I say, kissing him again. "I love you, Bee. Be good for mama okay?" "Dada .. " she calls out to him, poking out her lip, starting to cry. "I know, baby, I know. Daddy loves you. I'll see you soon." he says, leaving a long kiss on her head, smiling as he runs his thumb across the side of her head, feeling on her hair. I put Christine in her stroller and she cries so hard, her face starts to turn red. She gets like this every time we have to go. He stands up, putting his hands behind his back, letting the guards cuff him. "King, take care of her for me." he says, looking at King. "Gotcha boss." he says, nodding to Xavier as they take him away. When the doors shut, and the buzzers buzz, we turn around and head to the exit, Christine crying for her dad as we walk away. We get in the car and Christine's still crying and it makes me emotiona
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 56
Xavier's POV: We're right back where we were almost a year ago. I'm holding her hands as she prepares for the first push, rocking back and forth and breathing hard, looking me in my eyes. Camara, Z, and King stand in the doorway and When Mia says to push, she closes her eyes tight and holds her breath as she pushes hard, her hands squeezing mine .... superhumanly tight. She exhales and puts her hands in the water to balance herself, and takes a couple deep breaths preparing for the second push. On three, she pushes and holds it for ten seconds, then lets it go, taking her hands out of the water and putting them on my arms for some support. I pick up the towel next to me and I wipe the sweat from her head as she breathes in and out. "You doing okay?" I say, moving her hair back off her face. "I just want these babies out of me." she replies, lying her head on my shoulder. "Baby A is coming fast. Baby's crowning, give me a big push, okay?" Mia says. She nods her head and wraps her
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 57
4 months later Dionne's POV: The twins are growing up quick. It'shard to believe it was only four months ago that Xavier came back. It's like he never left. Christine's birthday is today too. Xavier's excited about it. "I can't believe it's been a year. Almost two since we've been together." he says, sitting on the couch with my legs thrown over his. "Yeah. Time's just rolling by." I say, sitting right next to him. "I don't want my baby growing up too fast like this. She's already walking and halfway talking. I can't take it." he says, sighing. All of a sudden, I hear one of the twins crying upstairs. "I think that's Harley. I just put Kai down, so it's about time I fed him." I say. Xavier kisses me before I get up to get Harley. When I walk into the twins' nursery, I can see his little body sitting up in the crib, his sister asleep next to him. I grab him and I make a bottle for him, then I take him downstairs, as he smiles and looks around. I sit on the couch next to Xavier and
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 58
Xavier's POV: As I drive to the club, the boys and their girlfriends behind me, I talk with Dionne on the phone. "Anyway, I'm pulling up to the club. I'll call you in an hour." "Okay. Be safe, baby." she says back. "I will. Love you." I say. She says it back to me and hangs up as ! put my car in park. I get out and the boys are getting out too as I shut my car door. I walk in, all of them trailing behind, and I put a one hundred dollar tip on the bar top for the young lady behind the counter. "Shots. For all of us." I say. "Gotcha." she replies, giving me a wink. I roll my eyes as she sits six shot glasses in front of me and pours liquor in all of them. "Bottoms" Kayno says, downing his shot, the rest of us doing the same. "Aaaah. Tonight's gonna be fun." Riley says , patting the bar top. As drink, Tiffany, better known as Tiff, keeps passing me by, looking at me and smiling. She's a waitress. She's always had a crush on me since she landed a job here and I've never shown an in
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 59
She looks at me, her eyes glossy and stained with tears. "Just tell me what happened .. please." she says, slowly walking toward me. "Baby, listen to me, okay? Nothing happened. I just got a little drunk, but-" "A little?" she questions, her nose already red. She scoffs and looks over at my desk, papers scattered everywhere, the condom wrapper still sitting there. Fuck. I zip up my pants and her eyes go wide as she looks at the condom and back to me, and she starts to cry. Shit, I know. Bad timing. "I didn't use that." "Yeah, no shit. The condom's not in it and it's torn open and lying on your desk, but I doubt you used it." she says, not believing a word I'm saying. "I can't believe you. I let you go out and have fun with your friends, and I agree to stay home with the kids, just so you could go out and cheat on me with some slut at the club. While I'm home taking care of our kids. Are you fucking kidding me?" "Baby, listen, I know how this looks-" "Don't give me that. Don't giv
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 60
Xavier's POV: I stand at the island, holding myself up on the counter, my elbows resting on it, drinking a beer in an empty house and an even emptier heart. The door opens and the everyone walks in. The girls go upstairs and the boys come into the kitchen. "Why'd you leave? What happened? We just saw Dionne crying and you looked ... like you went through something." Mark says, grabbing a beer for everyone. I clutch her ring in my hand before putting it down, letting everyone see it. "This happened." I say, taking a sip of my beer. "She took it off?" Kayno says, his eyes big. "No, the ring just levitated off her finger." Z says, rolling eyes. "I'm sorry man. That's horrible. What happened?" "That bitch, Tiffany." I say, my anger surfacing. "Home-wrecker Tiffany. She's always been a problem for you." Z says. "The problem is that she doesn't know how to take a fucking hint. Basically threw herself onto me and tried to fuck me right there in my office. Dionne walked in after she l
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 61
Dionne's POV: I sit on his lap, looking into his eyes as he begins to tell me what happened. "At first I was drinking. I didn't wanna drink too much in the first place because I knew I had to come home, so I took a couple shots. She was looking at me every time I would see her and I already knew what she wanted. Back when I wasn't very ... respectful of women, I used her. When I was frustrated, I'd use her, when I was stressed, I'd use her, even when I was just bored ... I'd use her. When I heard about our marriage, I thought I'd hate it, but still, I let her go to be faithful to you. My mother always taught me to be faithful because my father wasn't really a great example." "He cheated on Daxine?" "He did. And I'd never let him forget it." My heart twists with sympathy when he says that. He shakes his head and continues. "Anyway, the other night, me and Kayno talked about her. It got me upset so I went to my office and I was roaming around, looking at stuff. I came across an old

ARRANGED MARRIAGE ~Epilogue~
Dionne's POV: It's Xavier's birthday today. Christine and the twins were so excited, they wanted to do something special for him in their own little way. Everyone moved out and settled in their own homes, so now it's just me, Xavier, and the kids. "Mommy, when's Daddy coming home?" Christine asks, looking up at me. "He'll be home soon, baby. He's on the way here now." I say, smiling at her as I get to my knees. "You think Daddy's gonna like what you made him?" I say, my eyes lighting up. "I think he will. Kai and Harley said he wouldn't like it though." she says, frowning. "Kai! Harley! Get down here!" I say. They come down with their heads down, letting me know that they already know they're in trouble. "What did you say to your sister?" I say, looking at the both of them. "Mommy, I said sorry." Kai says. "You can't say mean things like that to your sister. You too, Harley. Daddy already told you not to be mean to your sisters. How do you think he would feel if he knew you we
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 77
"Dionne, what's wrong?" I say, gripping her hands in mine. She looks down with her hand over her stomach, blood seeping through her fingers. "Baby, talk to me." I say, panicking. She falls to the floor and I catch her in my arms as she tries her hardest to breathe. Tears prick at my eyes as I watch the life drain out of her. I hear three gunshots ring out and I hear a body drop to the floor, but I never take my eyes off of my wife. I sit there, crying like a baby as I hold her in my arms, hugging her body against mine as I rock with her. She puts her bloody hands on my face as tears flow from her eyes. "Baby, look at me. Look at me." she says, trying to smile through her tears. But I can't. I just can't. "You're gonna be alright, I promise." I say, crying. "Baby, I'm not gonna make it. I can .. I'm bleeding out too quickly, I .. I don't have a lot of time .. " she says, rubbing my cheek with her thumb, wiping away my tears. "Take .. care of our babies, okay? Tell them .. tell the
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 76
Xavier's POV: As I stand at the altar, my mind races. All I can think about is seeing her. Feeling her, touching her, kissing her. My nerves are on fire as I think about finally seeing her and being able to hold her in my arms again. The scenery is beautiful. It's huge. I stand at the altar, waiting for her and all of a sudden, music starts to play and the side doors open, the grooms coming from the left and the bridesmaids coming from the right, meeting in the middle to lock arms and walk down the aisle and go their separate ways. Five minutes pass by and Camara's little sisters come down the aisle, dropping flowers as they walk down the aisle. Then those big white doors open to reveal my wife in a huge white dress. She looks gorgeous. She walks down the aisle with a veil over her face, her brother on her arm as she walks with a bouquet of red flowers. I smile as I look at her walking up to me, her brother kissing her cheek before he lets her go, letting her come to me. She gives h
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 75
Dionne's POV: I wake up to Amber calling my name. Everyone else stands back as she sits on the bed, wrapping me in a hug as I wake up. "Hey hun." she says, smiling as she pulls away. She hands me an iced coffee and it doesn't taste like a regular iced coffee. "What's in this?" I say, looking at the cup. "Tequila." Riley says, sitting on the bed with me and Amber. I nearly choke, laughing. "Tequila?" I say, laughing. "We want you to wake up feeling like the best bride in the world. So we gave you coffee-tequila." Amber says. "Where's Mara?" I say, looking around. "She's coming. She just called and said Xavier was awake. Just got up, she said." Amber says. I smile and I pick up my phone, dialing Xavier's number. As I talk to him, my heart flutters in my chest, knowing that this is the man I'm marrying. "Anyway, I'll see you soon. I love you so much." he says. I can hear him smiling as he talks. "I love you more, Mr. Foster." I say, hanging up. When I hang up we look at each ot
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 74
2 days later Xavier's POV After a night of earth shattering sex and mind-blowing orgasms, I had to leave Dionne. She says it's bad luck to see your bride before the wedding. So here I am. Up at 9 A.M, in the biggest master bedroom Zeno's mansion had to offer, processing what's happening today as I lie in bed. I get up and I put on my slippers, brush my teeth, wash my face, then I go downstairs with sweatpants and a navy blue short-sleeve shirt on. I go downstairs to the island in the kitchen and Z's making coffee for the both of us and Camara. "Thanks for letting me crash here last night." I say, as he slides my coffee across the table to me. "Don't thank me. It's the least I could do for the groom-to-be." he says, winking at me as he stirs his coffee and leans onto the island. Camara comes down with Bentley and she gasps in shock for the sake of the baby. "Who's that?" Camara says, looking down at Bentley. "That's uncle Xavier! Say hi, baby!" she says as I smile at Bentley. She
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 73
Xavier's POV: As I sit in my office smoking a cigarette, stressed from the phone call I've just received, Dionne walks in, with a smile, immediately brightening my mood a little. "Oh no. What's stressing you?" she says, her smile fading into frustration as she walks in and sits on my desk, crossing her arms. "Nothing." I say, not wanting to burden her. "Xavier, you only smoke when something's stressing you. It's never random." she says, arching her eyebrow, knowing I'm lying. I grab her hips and I pull her onto my lap, letting her straddle me and look into my eyes. I put out my cigarette and I sit back in my chair, looking up into her eyes. "What's wrong? Talk to me." I say, changing the subject. Ignoring the fact that I changed the subject, she shrugs and answers. "Mom wants to keep the kids for tonight, tomorrow and the next day so we can have some time alone before and after our wedding day." she says. "And you're asking me if that's okay?" I say, my eyebrow shooting up. "Ye
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 72
The next day, I wake up and the thrill of my wedding day coming so soon fills me to the brim, making me smile. I turn over to see the love of my life sleeping peacefully, something I'm not used to seeing. I place soft kisses on his lips throwing my leg over his stomach as I sit up to hover over him as I kiss him. I feel his body move beneath mine as he grunts, then I feel his hands travel to my ass to squeeze it, making me hum to myself. "Good morning." he says, his voice deep, yet soft. "Good morning." I say, smiling. "So, I have to go out again today." I say, moving his hair from his eyes as I look into them. "Okay. Do what you need to do. Just-" "Be safe. I will. I love you." I say, cutting him off and kissing him. I get up and I take a shower, then I brush my teeth, then do my skincare routine and after I'm finished, I put on some black leggings, sweatpants, a long sleeve shirt, and a puffer coat with mittens and a warm, fluffy hat and ear muffs. "You look very warm." Xavier
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 71
4 months later ---- "Oh my god, babe, guess what!" I say, squealing and shaking with excitement. "What is it, love? Did your dress come in?" Xavier guesses. "No, that's tomorrow. Guess again." I say, climbing onto his lap in anticipation. "I dunno. Tell me." he says locking his fingers together behind my back, holding me in place as he grins at me. "They're finally finished with the venue and setting up the wedding! Can you believe it?" I say, kissing him in excitement. "No way." he says between kisses. "Yes way. This is actually happening!" I say, rolling over and curling into a ball of happiness. "I know. I actually can't believe it. We're getting married." he says, placing soft kisses on my lips. "Yep. Three more days." I say, smiling hard, pulling his lips to mine as he climbs on top of me and in between my legs, laughing. Suddenly there's a knock on the door, pulling us apart. "I'm going to the grocery store for the kids, you guys don't mind them coming, do you?" Kinsle
ARRANGED MARRIAGE Chapter 70
Dionne's POV: Xavier slowly goes to the door and he takes a deep breath before opening it and pointing it at whoever's at the door. "Xavier! Hi!" A woman with silver hair and green eyes, red cheeks, and braces comes in and throws herself onto Xavier, hugging him. Now jealous and angry, I back away from Xavier and I clear my throat loud enough for everyone to hear. As the girl giggles, Xavier putting her down, she looks over to me and gasps. "Oh .. my gosh! You're his fiance!" "Yeah, and who are you?" I ask. "Dionne, meet my cousin's girlfriend, Star. Star, meet Dionne. You already know what she is to me, obviously. She's really friendly, but she's a beast on the inside. Only when she has to be of course." Xavier says, introducing us. I flush red at my mistake. "I'm sorry for pouncing on him like that. It's just been years since I've seen him. Rome come in, it's cold outside!" she says, waving some guy over. He has a white streak in his jet black hair, and he has tattoos all over
