"Iris!!!" Hearing Blair shout, I ran out of the kitchen, only to stop and then burst out in fits of laughter. Little Kyle has peed on her.And he was laughing, seeing his mom pout so cutely."Little devil. I just changed his diapers." She whines. Blair is new to motherhood, we both are. But one thing I can tell she handles her baby better than me. The reason she gave, was that she looked after her sister. The very same sister, because of whom, she wanted to avenge me.Somewhere or the other I blame myself for what happened to her sister, it's because of me, Josh killed her. This knowledge fills me up with a lot of guilt. Maybe that's why I didn't dwell much on thoughts when I had to decide, whether I want to giver her a second chance or not. "You, deliberately troubling mommy." I pinched Kyle's cheeks, while he laid naked on the bed, and he holds my finger with his little fingers, smiling wide. He looked so cute that I couldn't stop myself from showering him with kisses. But that
"She is fine Mr. Russo. Stress has taken a toll on her. And I am afraid if she keeps stressing herself like this, she will hinder her health, badly. " Xander let the doctors' word settle, his gaze fixed on his angel, lying unconscious on the hospital bed. Her face was pale, with no life. " There are certain things, that I would like to discuss with you in my office. Please follow." Finishing, the 40 years old man left, after a last glance at his unconscious patient. He didn't fail to notice the tears wetting, Xander's face and hence decided to give the couple some time.With Iris's cold hands clasped in his, Xander, let the tears fall from his eyes. He didn't even try hiding it. Seeing her like, this, is paining him, as he has never felt before.He feels like his whole world, had been ripped away from him, here the love of his life, is passed out on the hospital bed, and the kid he claimed as his son is in danger.And he fucking wants to burn down everything, by merely thinking of th
With her hands tightly wrapped around herself, Iris kept looking outside the cab window. But her mind registers nothing. It's as if she is lost.The only thing on her mind is her son. She wants to reach him as sooner as possible. Her tears had dried but her heart is still aching for her baby.My baby.When earlier Iris woke up in the hospital, she saw Xander's retreating figure. She opened her mouth to call him, but before that Xander was out.Weak she sat, only to receive a text, which resulted in her escape from the hospital.She wanted to run to Xander, and tell him, about Josh's threat, she wanted her husband to hold her tight, and assure her that he will bring their baby, safe. But her pathetic fate, she cants.After all, what will she tell her husband, a husband who doesn't even, remember anything? And secondly, she won't put his life in danger, because of her. She had already done it once, but not again. She loves him, loves him enough, to die in his arms peacefully, but can
Jacob is pacing around Iris's apartment, the file he asked for from the detective is of no use. Because according to the file, no one met Josh in the last two months. Which makes no sense to him, because there must be someone who helped him. His first was his parents, but he dug and came to know that his father doesn't want to do anything with him. He caused him a lot of problems. Especially after, he tried killing the most influential and the Alexander Russo. Many investors withdrew their hands from his company and he faced a major loss in his share, something he is not ready to forgive Josh. And hence Jacob is more stressed. He would admit that seeing the situation he doubted Blair and Ava, but there also he came empty-handed. He is sure someone helped, he can see in everything there is something that is missing that is not adding up, Josh can't escape without a helping hand. But the question remains. Who?? " Jacob you are thinking too much. " placing a hand on hi
Iris's POVHomeI never thought I will ever be back here.Xander's condo...Our love nest.Where we use to hide from the world, in each other's arms. I wished but always doubted that I will be coming back here.The nostalgia, I am feeling right now is making tears of happiness brim my eyes.I am back home.Our home."Iris...get in." Says Xander extending his hand to me, while the other held a sleeping Xan in his arms.Xan's head resting peacefully on his shoulder, I told him that I can carry but he was having none of it, he said a few words, and I decided to not fight. His words, ' I missed a lot, let me have my moment. ' I look at his stretched hand, then his face. His eyebrows furrowed, not understanding why am I frozen.I wish my eyes could tell him, what this place means to me, I have lived some of the best days of my life here, and this apartment has a part of my soul. That I left her when I left New York. But I can understand his thinking, hence To ease him I held h
Iris's POV"One more!!!" I yelled to Blair, to bring one more bottle of bear for me. She is in the kitchen and went to bring some snacks. Because from the moment she arrived, we are busy drinking only. "Dont you think you should tone it down " taking a seat beside me she chuckles, as I just stare at the starry sky. Something we are doing, after a long time. Since moving here I was missing having Blair and Kyle around me. I was so used to loving them that, at a point, I felt lonely, and so did Xan. He was missing Kyle a lot. Xander and I told him to make new friends but he said he doesn't need one, all he need is Kyle. And as much, as I admire his loyalty to his friend come brother, I was feeling bad, I felt a little guilty also because it was I who separated them. I didn't that far. And Xam was also excited knowing that he has a daddy now and was excited to live like a family. Both of us didn't know, we are going to miss our friends so much. The cold breeze brushed my
"Are you sure? I think you should once again assess your decision." Jacob, hesitantly tells me, while his eyes roam around my face to know what I am thinking."Jacob., we have already done this conversation. And for the final time, I am not backing, now." Sighing, I stood. Walking to the large glass window in his office, I opened them to let some fresh air come. As I was feeling suffocated by my thinking. And secondly, I don't understand the concept of having this large window and keeping them close. I mean what's the use then?"Have you told Alexander?" "No." My reply was quick, but soon I regretted knowing well, Jacob will surely put his opinion."I don't think it's a good idea.""I will tell him....but later." I lie. I will never tell Xander. He may have forgotten his memories but he is still overprotective of means by any chance he comes of it, he will flip. Jacob gives me a skeptical lol, I am sure he doesn't believe a single word of mine but he decided to not comment on that.
Iris's POV"Damn!!! I am freezing " complains Xander with tattering teeth while we both rushed down the stairs toward our room, shivering.Believe me, it may seem romantic, having sex in rain, but when the cold water does a fusion dance with the colder wind, you realize no matter how hot your partner is, he can't save you from shivering and falling sick, hence here we are entering into the warmth of our room."Serves you right for fantasizing about sex in rain," I say chuckling, while I rub my arms to provide some warmth."Oh yeah?" With one brow raised, my annoying husband takes slow steps toward me with a mischievous glint. "Yes." Stating I turn to run into the bathroom, knowing very well what he is up to."Not so fast, my fallen angel, " wounding his hands around me from behind, he whispers close to my ears, his hot breath, shivered me more when it came in contact with my cold skin, " maybe my plan of wetting you somewhere else, while you are drenched in rain, has failed, but burn
