~~ A little ignorance from someone special pricks like a needle and hurts like hell ~~
Xavier opened his eyes slowly, adjusting it to his surroundings. He gripped the thing more tightly when he saw the darkness again.
"Aaah!!"
Xavier sobered up when he heard a wincing sound. He looked up from the soft pillow and was shocked to find a sleeping Valentina underneath him. His eyes widened when he realized he was sleeping on her chest. Red hue covered his ears and neck. He couldn't even remove himself from her as she had a deadly grip on his torso.
"Little one!!!"
Xavier whispered in his raspy voice.
"Ummm, mom, two more minutes!!"
Xavier chuckled, forgetting his surroundings. If it was any other time then Xavier would have created an uproar by now. But at this time he didn't care about the dar
~~ Words hurts more than sword. Use it with cautiously ~~ Valentina's jaw fell on the ground as she saw the image of a very handsome half naked Xavier wiping his hair with another towel that hung around his neck. A towel wrapped around his waist and that too loosely that a simple tug can open it. Xavier had gone inside the washroom the moment he entered his room. His sweaty body was causing irritation to his skin. He felt bad that he left his newly married bride in the car alone. A part of him felt bad. But the agony and fear of the last so many years made the hurt vanish into the thin air. Xavier took a warm shower and came out in just a towel owing to the absence of people in his room. He started wiping his hair with the towel unaware of a pair of eyes that stared at him as if he was some kind of alien. "Fuck!!" Xavier cursed under his br
~~ Trials are a part of our life and we need to go through it at every point of our life ~~ Knock!!! Knock!!! Xavier was distracted from Valentina when someone knocked on the door, "Who's it?" Valentina flinched when she heard his raspy voice. "Young master, it's me Maria. The food is ready!!" "We will be there in 30 minutes." Xavier informed and turned back at his little wife who was breathing heavily. Xavier smirked when he saw her swollen lips and red cheeks. He caressed her lower lips and placed a peck there. Valentina closed her eyes tightly when he again pecked her. She opened her eyes when she didn't feel anyone's presence near her. She saw Xavier entering the walk-in closet and sighed in relief. This man is an actual devil i
~~ Thank you for reminding me what butterflies feel like ~~ ° Xavier's POV ° Fuck!!!!! I cursed under my breath for the umpteenth time. Why can't I get her out of my mind? "What happened now, dude?" Lan asked me while scrolling down something on the iPad. It has been more than 5 hours since I returned to Country A. Five hours since I held my little wife and kissed her lips.. What the hell!!! When did I become so desperate? Why the hell do I lose my patience and self control in front of her? Her one innocent look is enough to give me a hard on. Her quivering red lips with those green eyes have been controlling my mind from the time I met them. I'll fucking go crazy if I continue to think about her. On top of that, the old man decided to send me on the honeymoon. For sure, I'll come back from the honeym
Xavier didn't know what to say. He was speechless and couldn't find any word to express what he was feeling. He was dumbfounded seeing a smiling Valentina in front of him. She was wearing a beautiful peach color knee length dress with long sleeves and a high neck. Her waist length hair was open and went over her shoulder in a wavy way. Few of her hair strands fell on her face that made Xavier crave to put them behind her ear.Valentina stood there with a wide grin on her face as she expected him to thank her for such delicious food and a hot cup of latte. But what she received was unexpected. Her eyes flew open when she felt a grip on her forearm and was pushed against the table. Her waist hit the table edge making her yelp in pain."Aah!!"She looked up and swallowed a lump of saliva when she saw his raging eyes,"What the hell are you doing here?"
° Xavier POV °What the hell does she think of herself? Wife of a day and she could boss me around. Ha!! In her dreams.Thank God!! I didn't eat those carbs or else I would have to spend my whole week in the gym. I entered my room and switched on all the lights. I sat on the bed with a thud as my head pounded with pain. Maybe the migraine pain. I need to take my medicine.I walked near my drawer and opened the first drawer to take out my medicines. I took the box and was about to open it when the lights went off. I froze in my place with the box in my head. I could see nothing except the yelling outside. But I couldn't respond back."Mom, save me!!""Dad, I'm scared.""Please, let me go. I'll never complain to anyone.""Let me go. Ahh!! There are rats, I'm scared of them. Please let me go.
Smack!!!!The brand new phone came in contact with the wall harshly which made Valentina jerk up from her sleep. She unconsciously sat on Xavier's stomach making him groan."What happened? What happened?"Valentina asked hastily. She looked around and then saw the broken phone laying in one corner of the room. She then looked down and blushed heavily when she realized she was sitting on Xavier. She hurriedly got down off him.Xavier who was groaning a while back came back to reality and with him came his anger that too in ten fold. He stood up and his height towered over Valentina who gulped down her saliva in fear. Xavier stormed near her and held her arm tightly."What do you think of yourself? Huh??? Are you even human? Taking advantage of someone else's fear?"Valentina felt hurt when he saw that she was taking advantage of h
Valentina looked in awe around the cafe. The cafe was decorated beautifully with different handworks. The slight rain was making the atmosphere even more enjoyable.Valentina pouted when Xavier walked inside the cafe without her. She didn't mind it and walked behind him. She wore a white jeans paired with long sleeves white tucked in shirt.Xavier had planned the breakfast date as an apology. He didn't want to say sorry to her face to face so opted for the breakfast idea. He was mesmerized by her natural beauty. With a slight blush, she looked exactly like a college student.With this thought, Xavier remembered something. He had to talk about this later on with her.Both walked inside the cafe and took the corner seat. Xavier didn't go to a renowned restaurant as he didn't want to reveal their relationship yet to the public. He was surprised to know that the old man didn't say
° Valentina POV °Did he just fight for me? But why ? At one point he says I'm not important to him. And then the second minute, he tries to kill a waiter as he touches me inappropriately."Because you are hurt and you aren't letting me fend for it."I said to him through my tears when he asked me why I was crying. I guess he thought I was crying because I was scared. But why would I be scared when he saved me?"Ok, ok, here's it."I looked up at him as he forwarded his bloody hand to me. The knuckles were bruised up with dried blood. My eyes welled with more tears thinking how much hurt he has to go through just because of me.I got my bag and took out the bandages. It's most appropriate now till we reach home. I put the bandages on his knuckles and then dusted off his full sleeve shirt which was dirty.
"I don't want to do any more assignments!!" Valentina whined and slumped down her head on the table as she looked at the piles of papers she wrote. It had been a week since she joined the university. She was shocked when she got to know Grandpa Night and Xavier both owned the university and days before her first day, Xavier had gone to the University and did his own bidding. She couldn't say anything as whatever he did was right. Or else she would have to face many questions thrown by the students. Valentina had gotten a list of assignments, including a few practicals. She has only two weeks to get over everything which was done in the last two months. Was she complaining? Yes she was. She didn't like the burden but she knew it had to be done. Valentina stood up and went towards the kitchen to get something to drink. Xavier hadn't returned and it was almost 8 o'clock. Xavier had informed him that
Valentina gripped her backpack tightly as she walked inside the campus. The campus is huge with a wide field, students buzzing around, dark academia buildings and what not. Valentina knew that her first day won't go that smooth. She was prepared for any kind of bullying or ragging. Long back was that scared and stuttering Valentina. This Valentina is introverted but knows very well how to show people their place. Valentina walked inside the class and was utterly shocked when everyone stood up looking at her. She blinked her eyes multiple times but then ducked her head and went towards the third row. She was again shocked when all the guys from that row went to other rows and the girls were left only. "What the hell is going on?" Valentina questioned herself. She sat down and just kept her head down. It was awkward for her. Why was she getting all the attention and such weird glances?
The morning came soon. Valen was all set for her first day at Uni. Excited and terrified, she somehow got inside the car and was quickly shifted to another seat which was Xavier's lap. Valentina didn't say anything and hugged him by his neck. Xavier chuckled slightly at his little baby. He patted her back all the way to the University. When they came in front of the university, Valentina refused to leave Xavier and get inside the university. "Baby you need to go. I promise I'll be there soon to get you." Xavier felt like a parent who was consoling his kid to go to school. But in his case it wasn't his kid but his own wife. "Promise!!" "Promise!!" Xavier placed a firm kiss on her forehead and then continued pecking her lips until a wide smile spread on Valentina's face. She waved him bye and went out to venture t
"It's impossible. Valentina has never been close to any guy other than you in her childhood. Even after you left, she immersed herself in books and studies. No way, her picture will be with someone. And Ethan Taylor, I never heard of this man ever." Mrs. Constance paced back and forth in the room. Xavier sat down on the couch, deep in his thoughts whilst elder master, Mr. Night is busy thinking about something. As soon as Ethan Taylor and his uncle left Xavier's office, Xavier didn't waste a second before marching off to Mrs. Constance's house which she brought yesterday. It was still unarranged but right now discussing this matter is more important. "There has to be some link. Ethan was addressing Valentina as his fiance with whom he is about to get married in two months from now. What's more confusing is, he has her childhood picture. Shouldn't he have her present picture to keep with him?"
Xavier and Valentina were busy busking in each other's arms after having their dinner. Xavier couldn't keep his hands away from Valentina as he held her close to his heart and kept on kissing her forehead. Their sweet moment broke when the sound of a phone call erupted in the comfortable silent room. Xavier groaned and picked up the phone. He looked down and Valentina half asleep. He silently went out of the bed to the balcony. "Speak!!" Xavier said to the other side and heard a sharp intake of breath, "You need to come back!!" "Why?" Xavier asked calmly. He knew something was brewing up. His gut feeling said so. Lan exhaled his stuck breath hearing Xavier's calm voice, "Last month, we had signed a contract with a male model and was supposed to work from next month. But now the model
Valentina sequaled in surprise when Xavier tied a white cloth around her eyes. "Let's go," Xavier whispered in her ears, while lowering himself. He stealthily placed a kiss just below her ear that made her shudder. Xavier bent down and picked her up in his arms in bridal style. It took them 20 minutes to reach the place. Valentina was shocked at how for straight 20 minutes, he carried her in his arms. She steadied herself when Xavier placed her feet down on the ground. He went behind her and opened the tied cloth slowly doubling her curiosity. The moment Valentina opened her eyes, her mouth hung open and jaw fell down at the decorations in front of her. Her eyes started filling up with tears and she turned back, hugged Xavier in nanoseconds. Xavier hid his face in the crook of her and smiled against her skin, "Did you like it?"
Xavier was aware of the fact that they can't consummate their marriage now. Even though the attraction between them said something else. Xavier better knew to control before he did something with the flow.Xavier wanted to make every day of the honeymoon a memorable day for Valentina. He wants to make different new memories with Valentina. New memories of their new life. He decided to do something different for her today.A big fat smile graced his lips as an idea struck his mind. He immediately took upon the work. He decided to make the arrangements all by himself instead of taking help.After a whole hard work of 4 hours, Xavier was finally done with his night plans. He was about to leave for the hotel when something caught his eyes. Specifically two small kids. The boy being the eldest and the girl being the younger one. They both were having ice cream while the boy looked at the little girl with hap
° Xavier POV ° I stood up from the bed after I was assured she was asleep. I didn't want to encounter any of her questions before I'm ready. I went towards the balcony and leaned onto the railing. I fished out a cigarette packet from my pocket and lit one. I usually don't smoke unless I'm stressed. My phone vibrated in my pocket and I took it out just to find the old man to call me. With a frown plastered on my face, I answered the call. "Did you both reach safely?" My frown increased more at his concern. I thought he would have his men tagged along with us. "I'll surely not send my man on my grandson's honeymoon." The word grandson felt so good from his mouth after such a long time. Covering my shock state, I decided to ask him the questions I had swimming in my mind, "You knew about Valentina!" &
It took a while to calm down Xavier. Valentina noticed one thing whenever he is triggered by his phobia, he murmurs a few words like ,'leave me' and many more. Valentina was now more determined to dig out his past. Valentina sighed as Xavier slept while hugging her waist and snuggling his face on her chest. Valentina didn't have any other options than running her hands in his hair. Xavier jerked up his face from her chest as her stomach growled due to hunger. "Sorry!" Xavier whispered huskily before pecking her lips and getting up. He wasn't in a mood to go outside after the incident so he decided to have their breakfast in the room itself. Before he could make a call, Valentina tugged on his shirt, "Can we have our breakfast outside?" Valentina asked softly with a smile. She thought maybe some fresh air would freshen up hi
