Xavier's POV,I approached the door in the room and walked out slowly, for a moment, I felt a pang of guilt run through my veins as I made my way to the bathroom."Good day sir," one of the staff bowed slightly.I halted in my steps and looked back at him. "Trust me today's definitely not a good day," I drew a long breath and gritted my teeth."I'm sorry sir," he walked away from where he was hurriedly.I nodded to myself and finally got into the bathroom to wash my bloody hands and my face. Cole's face kept replaying in my head and it felt like I should kill him before he even gets his sentence.The bastard need to have a taste of his own medicine."Damn it Xavi, damn!" I yelled and slammed my fist against the mirror in the bathroom causing it to crack.'If I had not gone in the first place would all these things happen?' I placed my hands on the sink in the bathroom and faced down with my eyes shut.'Or what if I never came back?' My thoughts drifted towards the scene that had just
Almyra's POV,"Why is she calling now of all time?!" Malum's voice was coated in disgust. I shrugged and heaved a sigh of relief. "I should ask the same question," I narrowed my gaze into slits.For a moment we looked at each other and it felt like the silence of the phone brought us back to life once more."Why did you not pick the call?" He diverted his gaze towards me once more.I placed my hands on my waist and looked towards the window. "I don't know why, it could not be more than a condolence call after all," I added."Hilda Farell ways are dirty Al, you know that?" He placed his hands under his jaw."Yeah, I know," I replied to him almost immediately and let out a sigh.If anything, there was no way I was involved in this and there is no way I could be dragged down with this act.The ways of Hilda Farell is dirty, yeah but not in this kind of situation, I let out a sigh and walked closer to the window.Everything in which she once told me started replaying in my head and I pla
Almyra's POV,Malum raised his sleeves up and looked at me with a teasing gaze. "That was weird, do you have any idea about what she was trying to say?" I pondered for a moment before speaking. "That was stupid from her I must say, like really stupid.""You might be the stupid one here," his eyes were not lying and his lips played with seriousness.I knitted my forehead in confusion and anger.Stupid?!Coming from Malum?! Damn!!!I stopped in my steps and crosed my hands across my chest thoughtfully.Yeah, he was right, I think I might be the stupid one here."Why did you say that actually?" I spoke in a low gravelly tone. "Like what did you think might be her reason of saying that?" I made myself clear.He hesitated for a moment before sitting down on the couch in the room. "Why not try to remember what she meant by that word?" "I don't know much about your ex-husband family you should know that," he shrugged. "I don't want to know also," he added with a scornful look on his face.
Almyra's POV,I stood in the hospital and my eyes were sternly fixed on Kitara.“What the fuck is she doing here?” I switched my gaze to Xavier who shrugged.“She said she wanna send her condolence,” he had a sly grin on his face. “Well, I told her to send it to the family outside the room and not me.”Kitara had a disappointed look on her face but she tried to muster up boldness. “So what do you think you are gonna? Chase me out of here? Call the cops on me?” She hissed flatly.“No, I won't do any of that trust me,” I took a step forward and my eyes met with Rachel's lifeless body.I felt a chill run down my spine and I was about to fall from the shock when Malum held me. “It's fine Al, it's fine,” he whispered behind me and held me.“Excuse us please,” Xavier turned to Kitara and motioned his hands towards the exit door. “You've been here for minutes so I think that's fine.” “What do you think you are doing Xavier?” Kiatar questioned with a shocked expression on her face. “Did you
Almyra's POV, I paced around the sitting room, Keith and Kaleb kept looking at me with a weird gaze that had started to get me frustrated. “What's wrong?” Keith walked past me and stopped at the front of the coffee maker. “I'm pacing around,” I opened my hands wide along with my eyes. “Yeah, and people don't do that,” he shrugged. “Unless something is wrong, and I guess something's truly wrong.” “He told me to call Xavier have you forgotten?” I turned to him and he smiled. “So call him then,” he looked at Malum and Kaleb who nodded their heads like puppets. “You should do that right away,” I had almost forgotten that Kaleb was here given the fact that he was silent for long. I nodded. “Okay then I would do that.” I walked towards my room and grabbed my phone but I paused before I dialed Xavier's number. “Damn!” I yelled and threw the phone on the bed but I got it right away. “What do that guy want to do?” I placed my hand under my jaw thoughtfully as I looked at the con
Almyra's POV,"Are you gonna go on without me?" Xavier's voice made me pause and I looked back."Should I carry you?" I spoke with a teasing gaze. "Or should we walk hand in hand?"He stroked his beardless chin. "Just forget it, you can go on," he motioned his hand towards the couch that was at the far right corner.I turned to leave but he held my hand swiftly. "Did you reconsider my offer?" my words were laced with pride. "No way!" He raised his voice in a way that only the both of us could hear before leaning on the wall. "That's not it," he added.I scoffed before walking close to him. "Then why did you drag me back?" "What do they call me for?" He heaved a sigh that I could not tell what type it was. "In case you don't know I'm in my early thirties.""I know that okay?" I smiled in held his hand. "Let's go."He nodded. "Yeah of course," he left my hand and placed his hands behind him. We got to the sitting room and my brothers and Malum were already there.The way the couch w
Almyra's POV,Keith narrowed his gaze towards Xavier, he was totally confused.It was no surprise actually, I was also confused but all I knew was that it won't be a stupid one."You should ask it already then," Kaleb said and Xavier nodded briefly.He pressed his lips thoughtfully before he began. "I would like Almyra to move in with me." The three of them were normal except from me who opened mouth in shock."I built a new house about two weeks ago," his voice was slow and steady. "Trust me, it's far from Kitara." He added with an assuring gaze."That is not even close to a question," Malum laughed and held his stomach. "I mean you guys are remarried and tell me do they live apart?!" He bursted into laughter again."That's a yes right?" Xavier had an awaiting look on his face."Of course, you guys can move in together I'm serious about that," Keiran's voice was firm. "When did you wanna go?" "Today?" "Tomorrow?"I heaved a sigh of relief and placed my hand on Xavier's hand before
Almyra's POV,I jumped up from my bed waiting for what today would bring, the time was just few minutes past four."Do the calms Al," I whispered to myself and breathed in slowly before letting it all out. "It won't be long before morning arrive."Slowly, I rose to my feet and approached the sitting room."What the fuck?!!" My heart almost fell from my mouth as I clutched my chest tightly."Did you even think this is funny?!" I yelled annoyingly, with my gaze strictly set at Keith.He sat down there without saying a word. "So what's my offense?" He asked with a blank expression.I sat opposite him and crossed my hands across my chest. "You scared the hell out of me can't you see?"He shrugged. "I'm sorry."The look on his face was something that needed to be studied and I did that immediately. "What happened?" I whispered with a lean in. "Don't tell me nothing cause I have a lot of reasons for asking you that question." I saw him tighten his grip on the bottle of wine in his hand.
