Xavier:It was extremely difficult to control my curiosity about Charlotte. I wanted to know everything about her but she was just not responsive.She also didn't seem like the type who talked much as we had not really had a proper and long conversation since she arrived.I wanted to ask her all the questions I had but the last thing I also wanted to do was force her or make her uncomfortable around me.I had hoped she would open up but after the way she tried to end our conversation, I decided it might take more time than I had expected.After Charlotte left, I also finished up my meal and thought about what to do.All I needed was some information about her in order to know what she had gone through and what led her into the woods.I continued to think about it when Max came to mind.He was one of the people I trusted and since I could not talk to Alessandro about Charlotte, he was my next available option."I should ask him to come over," I muttered to myself.I would have asked Al
Charlotte; I just stood there quietly, watching Xavier speak. I was too stunned and overwhelmed to say anything so I just stood there and watched as he spoke. “Did he just ask me to trust him completely?” I asked myself. I do not have a good history with trusting people. I literally just met this man and I'm so confused and overwhelmed with the attention I was getting. About trusting him? I don't know about that yet but he seemed like a good person. I am still trying to catch my breath from the sudden shift in my life. I literally went from being lonely, isolated, and attention deprived to being the center of attraction. This seems like a lot to take in and I do not know what to process it all. “Charlotte," Xavier called, snapping me out of my thoughts. “I said, just trust me. Okay?” He repeated. At that moment, I did not know what to say so I just swiftly turned my back and started walking slowly to my room. Even as I walked away I could feel Xavier's eyes all over my bo
Xavier: Charlotte remained quiet, and that made me angry. "Charlotte", I called her again. She still didn't respond; instead of responding, she put on a defensive look. I knew that she might know and be used to this pack and how everything went here, but I didn't think she hated it this much. Looking at her from my room window a few minutes ago, I saw a woman that looked like she was in bondage and wanted freedom desperately. Since Charlotte arrived at this pack, I have done everything to make her feel at home, but seeing her attempting to do this made me so angry. Her silence right now angered me more. "Charlotte, I told you to trust me. Why don't you just give me a chance and let me prove myself? Why did you ----?" I paused halfway, as I was getting really angry and overwhelmed. But there was still no response from Charlotte. Seconds rolled into minutes, and Charlotte still stood there looking so defensive without giving me an answer. "You know what?" I said, turning
Charlotte:As i walked around the unknown pack clueless of where i was going to or what i was even doing, all that filled my mind was how disappointed Xavier looked earlier.His face flashed through my mind each minute like i was back to the moment.“This is the right thing to do,” I mumbled while looking around to see if there was anywhere I could sit.I have been walking for over an hour now and was starting to get tired and hungry.I thought of going to a motel to spend the night but I had no money with me.I was right back to square one.I started to panic when I sighted a coffee shop right in front of me. I excitedly walked towards it and even more excited to see the signage which said it was a twenty four- seven open beverage shop.In order to stop anyone from noticing me, I quietly walked in and made my way towards an empty table at the extreme end.Luckily I was able to sit without no one noticing as there was quite a lot of people at the coffee shop.I stared at out of the gl
Xavier:After getting out of the car earlier at the coffee shop, I saw Charlotte run and immediately went after her.I loved that we were able to have a proper conversation, she was beginning to open up to me and I could not be more glad.We got back to the pack and made our way into the house. We then ran into Alessandro in the living room who he didn't look so happy to see Charlotte back into the pack.I had never seen him dislike someone this much and it got me wondering if there was a reason he had issues with Charlotte.“Welcome,” He said, ignoring Charlotte who was right by my side.I didn't quite have a lot of issues with his reservations toward her but it was starting to get a bit too obvious.Charlotte had just started to trust me and the last thing I wanted was for her to feel unwelcome in the pack.“Go take a shower in your room,” I muttered to Charlotte, who nodded her head.I then signaled to Alessandro and asked him to come with me.“Stop with that face,” I whispered to
Charlotte: I blinked my eyes open to find the morning sun shining through the window. I groaned in annoyance before turning to the other side of the bed and closed my eyes again. Just then, I heard a knock on the door, "Who is it?" My voice low and rasped from sleep. I knew whoever it was wouldn't hear my question, so I lazily dragged myself out of the bed to check who was at the door. Dragging my two feet to the door, I asked again, "Who is it?" But I did not wait for a response before opening up only to see a breathtaking sight in front of me. "Oh.. Xa-- Xavier" my voice caught up in my throat. My eyes glued at his fine frame as I examined his body. He was dressed in a blue suit, white sleeves with two buttons undone, his hair comed neatly to the back. "Good morning, Charlotte " He greeted. Before I could say a word, he added. "I hope you slept well?" "Good... Good morning. Yes, I slept well." I answered, while still looking at his perfectly tailored suit. "I am happy
XavierWhile Charlotte still looked pretty surprised, I grabbed her hand and took her to the midst of the crowd, and everybody turned to face her."Everyone, this is Charlotte." I said, smiling."Hi Charlotte," some people in the crowd echoed, while the others pretended not to even see her. But soon, Charlotte began to socialise with almost everyone, and that made me so happy. I was so happy that I even thought to organise this for her. I hope it makes her so comfortable with everyone from now on. I noticed that from everyone that was speaking to her, the men made more efforts to socialise with her and made her laugh. That made me feel somehow, but I brushed it off immediately and thought that he was okay for her to socialise with. At least for today. I just stood in a corner and observed as everyone socialised with Charlotte. I also used the opportunity to stare at her so much. I loved what she was wearing, and she looked super beautiful today.As I stared at her intensely, Levi,
Charlotte: I was tired of watching people humiliate me and treat me like I was a nobody. I didn't know how I did it but I stood up to Prisca and it felt really good. For the first time in so many years, I didn't feel helpless. As I walked into the living room with a huge smile on my face, I realized I might have just ruined Xavier’s party unknowingly and although a lot of the pack members would see that I was standing up for myself, I might have just created a bad first impression. This party was a way for me to make friends and socialise according to Xavier but I didn't think that would be possible after what had just happened. From what I noticed, many of the girls hated me while some of the men just kept flirting. My smile immediately faded as I thought about how much time and effort Xavier must have put into organizing the event and also how disappointed he must be in me. I turned my back and contemplated going back to the party for some minutes but not only was my dress
Charlotte:It has been about 2 hours since Xavier left my room but I just couldn't bring myself to believe what he told me. I thought it was going to be so mad at me for ruining the party but instead he commended me for standing up for myself.My mind then drifted back to moments at the party and how some of the girls were so weird to me. They behaved like they knew something bad about me or as if I hurt them. "Thank God most of the men were so cool, I enjoyed the party." I laid back in bed again and I suddenly began to feel grateful. I felt so grateful to Xavier for organizing such a party for my sake. It was definitely something I wasn't used to but I was so grateful for him. Since I couldn't fall asleep yet as I was thinking about Xavier and today's event, I thought to go and say hi to Xavier in his room. " I hope he is still awake," I muttered as I got up from my bed. I slipped on my footwear and walked briskly to Xavier's room. When I got to the front of his room, I started
Xavier After the call from Max, I began to feel uneasy. I just couldn't wait for every information he had on her. I just know any information I get on her will help me know how to go about helping her. I can't wait to see Charlotte be the best version of herself. I laid in bed with my eyes wide open and I just stared at the ceilings for about an hour. Suddenly, a thought struck me "Why can't I just instruct Max to come over tonight?" I asked myself as I picked up my phone to call him again. " Hey Max," I said as soon as he picked up the phone. "Is it possible for you to come over to the pack tonight?" I asked him. "uhhh," Max muttered grudgingly. There was silence from his end for the next 2 minutes and I just hoped in my head that he would give a positive response. "Okay, I will come over to the pack tonight." Max answered, breaking the silence. I heaved a sigh of relief. "Okay, I will be waiting for you." I said before getting off the phone. As soon as the call with Max w
Xavier: Proud is an understatement compared to what I felt earlier while watching Charlotte stand up for herself. I was extremely worried after watching Prisca try to humiliate me and was even ready to step in and defend her but after watching how well she handled it, I just could not stop smiling. To me, the party was a success even though Charlotte didn't make any friends as I wanted. I had no doubts Charlotte was stronger than who she thought she was and in a matter of just a few days, she has proven that to me. “You seem so happy,” Alessandro who seemed to have been watching me from a distance stated firmly with a stern face. “I am,” I replied. “My plan to make Charlotte stronger and be more confident is working.” Alessandro didn't seem thrilled to hear me talk about Charlotte but I was just too happy to care. “She stood up to Prisca at the party,” I added. “Can you believe that? Prisca looked so frightened and even apologized to her in front of everyone.” “You didn't c
