Maya walked back home ignoring the strange look she got from both those in their car and pedestrians who held umbrellas but she didn't care as she enjoyed the water that wetted her hair and trickled down to her body making her gown stick to her skin.
She coughed, aware of the cold she has invited into her body but still, she craved the liberating feeling the water gliding down her body offered.
She walked as slowly as possible, allowing the water to soak her completely. She had left her phone in Jared's car and had assured him she would be fine.
She knew he would have realized that was a big lie because her phone must be going off now with phone calls and texts by a worried Jasmine and Jessica.
Her feet hurt reminding her of the distance she had walked, but she couldn't stop as she hoped that somehow she just disappeared, get away, maybe being isolated would help her sort her crazy confusing
Xavier clenched his hand inside his sweatshirt pocket as he glared at his phone wondering if the man who had sent him this text had plans to show up. The guts, he thought to himself reading the text once again: (Unknown number): Hey I'm the guy that might end up landing your girl if you don't get your head out of your ass. I'm not the enemy but you have one. Let's meet. Text me the address of where is suitable to you but mind you it must be in a public space. I hope your feelings are not hurt but it is quite understandable why I can't trust you. Immediately his phone had lit up and he had read the message, he didn't need a soothsayer to tell him who was behind the text also known as the motherboard of his problems. He had wanted to just block the number or delete the messages angrily but he had decided to talk it out with him rather because although he had been a diesel to make whatever he had with Maya burn faster, he was not the arch
"I'm going to help you get Maya back not because you deserve her but she deserves to be happy." Xavier snorted hoping that Jared was aware that he was not just going to take his words for it at face value because if he did, then he must be frickin delusional. "How can I trust you? Believe that this isn't some elaborate plan with your big dipshit of your best friend. Like you both have been really tight for years, so how do you want me to believe you are really fucking him over and you are not fucking with me right now?" Jared chuckled, he had seen the big whys coming. Whys he had even asked himself. Why help Xavier get the girl when if he tried hard enough there were possibilities he might sneak his way into Maya's life especially now she was vulnerable and weak? but he didn't want love to make him a bad guy, he wanted it to make him a better person just like it had, Xavier. Besides he was of the school of thought that if s
"Then you need to come off this guilt. You're too overgrown to keep on dwelling on something you didn't have any control over. You couldn't have told that Diane would leave the car and be run over. It was simply not your fault," he shook his head, a sad smile on his face "You asked what I stand to gain from all of this? I'm also hoping that you both can just let go and live. Tyler too blames himself for what had happened. He had been responsible for driving Diane home after all but he had been with some now faceless blonde chick." Xavier averted his gaze from him, "Blaming you have been Tyler's only way to get through his sister's death and it had been easy, filled him with a purpose to destroy you and I'd supported him for a while because I didn't want to hurt my best friend, but now this is unhealthy and his obsession to hurt you is becoming scary. I might not want to take Maya from you but she would slip through your fingers if you don't act wise and fast. The
Punish the man she love"But why didn't you tell me all this while?" She had asked in pure confusion. "This is a secret everyone had begged me to keep in wraps for years, hope you can now understand why I was so horrified to find out you both were engaged. It didn't feel right. I tried to warn you subtly, but you were blinded by your love for him to understand." Maya had looked over her shoulder, immensely grateful that the girls had taken the initiative to disappear, even as she felt completely at odds with this piece of information she wasn't sure she was ready to share yet. "So you had just let your only sister's murderer go unpunished?" she swallowed hard knowing that she was suggesting that he punished the man she loved. The man who could be a murderer. She swallowed hard again. Fuck. "The odds were against me. Do you know how powerful the Salvadors are?" Her gaze narrowed as she remembered how Ann
"Are you alright?" Tyler asked her, concern in his eyes as she screwed up her line for the umpteenth time. They were on the terrace and according to the script she was supposed to tell him a story about her that would inspire a song. She unscrewed the cork of the bottled water one of the members of the crew provided her with and hurriedly gulped the whole content. She stood up from the cold slab where she sat with Jared resisting the urge to yell and ask him how he expected her to be fine, but no thanks, she didn't want to trend on social media as the newest added member of the deranged patient in NYC, she thought drily as she removed the microphone on her body and steadily walked out of the room ignoring Tyler as he called her repeatedly. She had thought she could do it, work and pretend like her life was in order but she had been kidding herself. She felt suffocated like she was burning inside of her and was not expected to shout, was dying
He stepped closer and she couldn't help but noticed that something has changed about him, it had nothing to do with his surprisingly wrinkled clothes or how humbled his eyes were. A one o clock stubble seemed strange on his perfectly shaven jaw and his eyes seemed almost dead, she choked on her spit horrified although the realization that he could be ruffled made him look less god and more like a man. A human. He took another step forward and she could see his ruffled hair where his hand must have been on so many times in exasperation, frustration, or both. The tight line of his lips. The leaves on his shoes. The matching sleeping bags under his eyes yet somehow he looked devastatingly handsome and it felt unfair that he didn't even need to try at all to look that way. She took a step backward as he took another and he stopped. "Please Maya, don't go away," he begged and tears burn her eyes at the pleading tone in his voice. The Xavier
"Where is Maya and how is she doing?" Tyler immediately asked Jared the minute he stepped into the Hall. The interior decorator was already removing the wallpaper and things in place they had used in making a part of the room look like a balcony and he was glad Tyler had spared him the stress of spelling out what they both knew already. Maya was in no mental or physical state to perform today and till further notice and it was only because of him, Tyler, and his stupid obsession with revenge. "If I didn't know better I'd have thought you cared for her and do not see her only as an important pawn in your plan to achieve your devious plan." Tyler looked hurt by his words and took a step backward like they were physical weapons because they did have the same impact of wounding him though not physically. "You know I do care about Maya. You know that." "Do I?" Jared hoarsely
Morphing into a sadist"Where is Maya?" Jared rushed towards him but he shook his head slightly. "She left. She left me." His words expressed raw pain but his eyes were blank, empty, cold. Jared recoiled. Now, this was the Xavier he had seen in high school, the golden boy that was rumored to be tortured. Tyler chuckled heartily but if Xavier heard him he didn't show. He slightly pushed Jared from his road and brought out his car keys, disengaged its alarm, and slowly walked towards it. "That's it?" Jared howled. Steam came out of his mouth even as he readjusted the neck scarf around his neck. The weather was way cold and it was suddenly becoming icy as Xavier turned to look at him. His eyes were blank, all emotions drained. He didn't look worried, helpless, happy, or sad. He didn't feel anything. "She doesn't want me." He curtly replied and then opened his car door. Jared watch
"Can I open my eyes now?" Maya whispered as she felt something around her neck. "Not yet." Xavier hollered from a distance and she grinned wondering what he was up to. Firstly he had interrupted her bridal shopping spree with the girls since it was a week before she'll finally be with this weirdo forever and now he was running around the house if the footsteps resounding against the floor hurriedly was anything to go with. "Now open your eyes." "Okay..." She first opened one of her eyes then another and smiled at the full-length mirror in front of her that showed the only thing that was different in her looks. A locket. A beautiful silver locket with glitters. She opened her mouth to say something and he hurriedly raise his hand in the air to stop her and then swiveled the mirror making her gasp in total shock as she hadn't seen that coming at all. It was a canvas. No, s
So we have come to the end of Resisting Xavier. Thank you for sticking with me till the end of this book... It mean so much to me trust me. So although this is the official end of this book I just might be dropping a bonus Chapter soon.... And perhaps a prequel that might feature Xavier's and Maya's big day though I'm wondering whose story should be written. Jared's? Jasmine's? Tyler's? Or cute Jessica and Alex? Too many options to choose from but until I make up my mind, you can check out another of my book I just signed that is about a kick-ass heroine. Lipsticks and gun. Thank you and I love you all ❤️
Maya chuckles momentarily as she could hear Adele's Hello from the background. No, she wasn't admitting that her choices in songs were toast like Xavier had constantly insisted but this was not the playlist to be playing loudly downstairs during sex she thought even as Xavier grips the headboard above her head with one hand and her hip with the other, thrusting his hips and pushing his cock inside of her. "Ahhhh," she cries out, dragging her nails into his chest. His arms almost give out. "Maya," he moans, closing his eyes at the pleasure. It's so hot and tight and wet. She shakes, her mouth open in both surprise and pain. He leans down to kiss her, "You're doing good. Just hold onto me." Her breathing calms, and he hated that he had to do this, but it is better not to tell her anyway. He slides out, almost all the way, and then thrusts, sinking all the way inside her this time, to the hilt.&nb
His cock bulges and seeps, and he continues eating her while he tugs down his joggers. She digs her nails into her thighs and he sucks on her clit, chewing it gently as her stomach rises and falls, faster and faster. He looks up from between her thighs, and the image of her on his bed, her eyes tightly shut and her hands fisted on the covers while she rolled her hips into his hand, hungry for him made him fist his cock with one hand, stroking it while he drops down to keep eating her. He swirls and nibbles, sucks, and licks syncing with her breaths and going faster and harder as her lungs fill again and again. "Yes... Yes." She pants, her legs opening wider. One leg on top of Xavier's shoulders and the other on the bed. "Fuck, I'm coming." She shakes, her short shallow breaths wracking through her body. "Oh, God... Xavier, you feel so good." She sucks in a breath and he knows
She pumps him, dipping her tongue into his mouth, to taste and feel, and the world was spinning behind his ears. He wanted her in his bed. He wanted her now.He presses his forehead to hers, hugging her to him. Their bodies started moving as he thrust into her hand and she rolls her hips to meet him, both of them panting and kissing until he was just a bit ready to rip off her clothes. "No." He mumbled almost unsure especially as she continued to trail kisses down her neck. "No..." He let go of her breasts and pull her shirt down before taking her hand off his cock. He clenched his eyes shut. "Go, Maya. Go to your room and lock the door." He let out in a whisper. "Xavi__" "Please." His eyes met hers hoping she could see he was struggling and was just about to break with a snap. "But what if I don't want to?" She pants, staring at his mout
Xavier had spent hours the night before, going over this particular moment, all he could say to show his sincerity, to truly express his love, how to react, and what to do but as he knelt in front of Maya watching her eyes shine with such pure glee his head suddenly went blank. He looks down at himself thoroughly amused, "I know you have had more proposals than an average girl and crazy enough from the same guy and that should have been enough warmup for me to now say the right things, make you swoon and luckily forget what an idiot I am and trick you into saying yes but all I can say is that this time I'm sure. I can see now. Somehow, I have always known my ring belonged on your finger not only because you have shown me so much light than I could ever imagine but you're the best thing that has happened to me and you make me laugh when I don't even feel like smiling. I'm so sorry but I'm thankful for your cheating boyfriend, grateful for your ridiculous decision
"Say freaky!!" Ashley who had already pre-assumed by Maya, later on, met them in the manicure and pedicure shop hollered as she took a selfie picture of Jasmine as expected indulging her, Jessica's brow was arched in disbelief, there was confusion in Melissa's eyes and Maya was laughing yet it was the perfect picture that was able to capture just a hint of that moment, the memories.***Maya smiled even as she helped Melissa hold her shopping bags as her phone rang while they were on the cab, on their way back from what was a ridiculously fun and long day. Jasmine has gone overboard with shopping hence the bags that they were surprised they could manage to fit into the car with themselves. They also bought nice charm identical bracelets now on their wrists that although was cliche especially as Ashley had said it was going to be a sort of BFF identification, Maya couldn't help but love the glittery beauty on her wrist but she didn't know about the BFF thingy because, f
Maya smiled as she hung up. She had just gotten off the phone with Melissa who had informed her that they were at the airport and she could already hear an animated discussion or banter between Ashley, Jasmine, and Jessica in the background which wasn't at all a surprise. All the girls did when they were together was banter and argue continuously which could be tagged discussions depending on the way you look at it. Her birthday was a day after tomorrow and she had been moved by the gesture when Jasmine had remembered and suggested that they come around to make it memorable for her and she had agreed not only because she had missed them so dearly but because it is been three months of gazing at her phone screen wishing that Xavier name was on it but knowing she wouldn't know what to say if that happens and she desperately needed a distraction from thinking and pining for him. Three months of wondering why she had to open her dumb mouth and s
So guys, I had this book completed on my Wps document that was backed up to my drive. I woke up yesterday to find everything gone. I'm still in a state of shock and though I might come around to rewriting this work but be patient with me if updates come slower than expected as I'm literally in tears as lots of my documents are still missing. I'll try to like wait it out, and see if this is a system bug or just a huge joke because my life is a mess literally right now. Might drop updates tomorrow or next but definitely not today because I don't think I'm in a frame of mind to write anything having lost 300k+ work from three of my not nearly done book files also missing. I'll appreciate suggestions if anything like this has ever happened to you and how you resolved it because trust me everything in my life is a huge mess and I can't stop crying. I don't even know where to start from!!!
