Guarding The CEO’s Heart Chapter 23
Already weddedLily's POVThe gun. Who shot it? I only realized that when I felt blood on my shoulder. It wasn't mine. It can't be, no. I frighteningly look up, so slowly that the world may perish but when I looked at the man, I wholeheartedly embraced in pain, my whole world collapsed. X-xander, he was shot. His blood was over my body, his face paled and before I knew it, I held him as he was losing balance. My state was worse, my mind could not register the sudden events. His face was calm, even though he was in pain, looking at me all the time. “X-xander, y-you are?” I could not understand what I wanted to say at that moment. I hardly cared if I was shot next, I did not look at the man, who shot him. “L-lily, I am fine, you get away”, My eyes squeezed out more tears at his words and my chest started to hurt now. “I won't go”, I said while crying, my hands were bloodied, and the dress he so lovingly gifted me was also bloodied. The irony being that the blood belonged to h

The scandalous contract Lily’s POV “So we are married?” I ask as I drive our way back to the hospital from where apparently Xander ran off. In his language, he was desperate to meet me, so he came here just after five minutes of waking up. “Did you not say so from your own pretty mouth?” He said as he gave me a teasing look. “That was just to escape the situation” I said as I took a turn, my mind remembering what happened thirty minutes ago. Apparently, I agreed that we were married but I did not expect Dad to not believe us. He totally refused it. “I thought you liked it, when I saw you blushing like a lady in love” He teased me more. I smile internally, “I wasn't blushing and I am not in any trap called love” I clarified while clearing my throat. “Fine baby pearl if you say so” He said and I peeked to see his smirk intensifying. Maybe I am but he does not need to know. “When we reach back, I have an offer for you”, he said. I took it in a light way b

Husband and WifeXander's POVThe woman in front of me leans over my body. I could see the lust in her eyes, she licked her lower lip as if inviting me to eat her.My hand went over her waist, guiding her over me. She smirked and brought her lips near my ear, to whisper seductively.“Please hold me”, it sounded sensual and any man would die for this. I inhaled sharply and opened the knot of her halter-neck dress.“Aahnn” comes out her voice at the action I did next.…I attended the call while on my way to the airport.“Yes, Pearl?” I asked her and she yelled at me as soon as she heard my voice.“Where are you? You did not pick them up?” I sighed at her screaming right inside my ear.“I will, don’t worry”, I told her, " It's been an hour since you left from here and should have reached on time but you are just somewhere else, aren’t you?”.“I had been in the traffic” I clarified and hung up.

His hand was tracing all over my back while the other tucked the hem of my shorts.I fisted his hair as he squeezed my waist.

I said in between my heavy breathing. “I am, I am thristy for you, your soul" he said as he sucked the bitten area, it pained but the pain was making me wet.
