Almyra POV, The silence between the both of us was offending but I still maintained my position. After all, I survived being alone, without him for months, almost years. So this would be normal right? But I don't want to experience the pain that I experienced while he was away from me, I don't want to feel those pain any more. “Yes I would come,” his deep voice jolted me from my thoughts causing me to make a loud gasp. “Only if you convince them actually.” “Come on babe,” I yawned. “Are you afraid of them? I mean I saw the way you battered Chris's face so can't you do that to them also,” I teased. He probably knew that I was pushing him into a ditch, a pit. He wouldn't dare. “Even if you call me something sweeter than that I won't bulge,” his scoff went a long way but I nodded while snickering. “If you say so then I guess I would just talk to them.” I was about to hang up the phone when he called me. “Almyra.” “Yeah,” I shook my head even when he could not see me. “You kno
Almyra's POV, They kept looking at me with rage filled in their eyes before Kaleb broke the silence. “What the fuck did you mean by Xavier!?” He barked and he spilled his drink causing the marbled floor to be painted in the color of Kaleb's drink, wine. “Look Almyra we all agreed that Xavier would have nothing to the with us until the day he goes back to the ground.” Keith was also annoyed but he cloaked it in his voice. His voice was cool, yet detached. “I never agreed such a thing with you people,” I turned to the fridge to pick a can of coke. I guess I was drinking it after all the banters I made with Ben in the car the other day. “Or can anyone of you remind me of when I said such a thing? Or can anyone of you tell me when I agreed to not have anything to do with him?” “Wait, did you mean you guys are–” “And it's not like Xavier and I are back together,” I interrupted Keiran rudely. “At least it's not my funeral he's attending.” “Why the fuck are you reacting this way!?”
Almyra's POV, I walked slowly towards where Keiran was seated and I bent low and reached for the pendant. “You can have your seat,” he gestured his hand towards a brown coloured couch. The frames in his room were catchy. In one of them was the picture of a lion and in another was the picture of a woman who held the moon on her hands. “You can sit down,” he jolted me out from my thoughts and I nodded my head before I sat down on the couch. “A nice room you have for here,” I smiled, my gaze was plastered on the pendant in his hands and I rose up from where I sat. “Who gave you that?” I asked while pointing towards the pendant and his reaction changed. To a frown. He never had any girlfriend about five to ten years ago so there's no where that pendant would rust like the way it did. “Did that bring back memory of someone you once cared for?” I asked him in a formal way and he nodded before he gripped it tightly causing his veins to pop out and his biceps became more visible. I sh
Almyra's POV, I turned back to see Keiran on his feet, with a straight face. "Yeah? You called me," my voice was barely above a whisper. He looked at me in the eyes as he was standing there. The silence became defeaning and his stare just kept getting intense. "Do you need something," I tilted my head before I crossed my hands across my chest. A soft sigh escaped his lips, "Let Xavier come over here for the party," a hint of smile played on his lips. Immediately Keiran said this, a warm glaw spreaded across my chest and of course I smiled before running to hug him. "Thank you so much!" My voice was covered in joy as I mumbled on his shoulders. He was taller than me, so yeah. "You are welcome," he returned the hug and a light chuckle escaped his lips. "Do you really mean that?" I teased and pulled back from him alot to set my gaze on him. He scoffed before returning the look, "Do you need two response?" I hugged him again on saying that. As I pulled back, I could not help
Xavier's POV, “Hey,” I heard a feminine voice close to me immediately I opened my eyes. “You were asleep about twelve hours ago.” It was Gina's voice. I guess she has something to do today since she was waking me up for the first time in a million years. “Like seriously!?” I sat up from the bed with a surprised look. “Well, it's not that I'm going anywhere today actually.” I rubbed my eyes to make my vision more clear since I was just waking up. “Since when did you start sleeping ten, eleven and even TWELVE hours,” she stressed the twelve in the sentence and let out a light chuckle. “I don't know actually,” I shrugged and sat down on the couch that was close to the bedside. “Hmm hmm” Gina cleared her throat, I know it was to probably get my attention but I stayed mute without sparing her a glance. “Hmm hmm” It was the second time she was doing that but I remained mute, I just scoffed silently and picked up the newspaper that was on the couch. “Are you fucking deaf!?” She
Xavier's POV, “Morning Mom,” I spoke in a firm and confident voice as she made her way to the living room. “Who the fuck is that Xavi?!” Gina yelled from the room with a curse word. I guess it was nice doing business with her, taking seventy percent of the share is a good thing. “Xavi!!!” Gina yelled again, but this time it was more serious. “Did you think you could cheat me? You are yet to hear—” It was not long before her words were brought to an abrupt stop. “Please would you do me the good of shutting the fuck up?!” My mom yelled in a cold tone forcing Gina to stop. My mom's tone has always been commanding and no one did against her will especially when you are a female. It's a good thing I'm a fucking male. I heard Gina's feet collide with the floor heavily, every step made a loud thump and it became louder until she reached the living room. A gasp escaped her lips and she covered her mouth in shock before you bowed her head before my mom and my mom just smiled and nodde
Xavier's POV, My mother's gaze and that of Kitara were sternly fixed on me and Kitara's eyes became bloodshot. Her smile meant jealousy; it was transparent in her every gaze, and her eyes were locked into mine. I sighed and shifted my gaze to my mother. The look on her face was normal, but I knew how cold she was. She might not reveal it, but I knew what was going on in her mind; she picked up the teacup and took another sip. The phone had stopped ringing, but I was unable to pick it up; I would be completely speechless while on the phone. So there was no point in picking it. "Sit down Xavier," her voice was calm this time. "Take a seat over there," she motioned her hand towards the chair that Gina sat on. "Is there any problem?" My face was engulfed with a frown. "Have your seat," she insisted on the word and I looked into her eyes. But those eyes were void. "Sure," I heaved a sigh. "I would do that." "Did you actually lie to–" Kitara was forced to stop in the middle of h
Xavier's POV, It felt like I was stuck on the ground the more I tried moving, what the fuck is this?! Kitara had reached my mom and I was just about five inches away from where they were. My mom just stood there, without blinking, with no sign of fear; her eyes were fixed on Kitara and nothing else, but Kitara stopped abruptly. "You can use this to kill me," she handed over the knife to my mom and the latter just looked at it and scoffed. "I thought you were going to send that into my body," she chuckled lightly. "You know, I've come face to face with death, I've experienced betrayal, and at the same time, I've betrayed people." She paused and smirked. "So it would not be a surprise to me if you did stab me," she spoke with a piercing stare. "But just pray I don't survive it, because if I do," she stopped and smiled. "If you do?" Kitara replied to her almost immediately. "Then you should commit suicide before I visit you," she gritted her teeth. "Same goes for anyone who dares
