(Xander)

why is it that every time I was with Rachael, we always ended up having a full-blown make-out session? I groaned as I punched the steering wheel, feeling frustrated because she stopped me. but it's a lucky thing she did because it would have been messy if we hadn't stopped. we would only go back to hating each other as much as we agreed to be friends.

I just need to find a way to get rid of this hard-on I have. Since I didn't plan on going back home, I made my way toward a bar so that I could pick up someone to spend the rest of the day with.

yeah, I know. It was probably too early to drink, and I probably won't get laid, but I had to try. I had to do something to get my mind off Rachael.

I don't even know why I bought her that bracelet. I was driving past the store and stopped while thinking about her. so, I decided to purchase the bracelet since it reminded me of her. I didn't care about the price, I just wanted to get her something, but it seems as if I had made a bad ch

    (Rachael)it was Monday now, and I decided that it was time for me to talk to Xander, so I was now making my way toward his office. Emily told me that he had arrived earlier than expected, but she didn't know why. everyone here was busy, and I heard that Xander's cousin was hired too. I saw him, but I was yet to talk to him. once I arrived at his office, with the bag in my hand that contained the bracelet that I wanted to return, I knocked on his door and opened it. I started talking but stopped when I saw the sight in front of me. a woman was on her knees in front of Xander, giving him a blowjob. his head was against his chair, and his eyes were closed. moans could be heard coming from him as the woman sloppily took his dick in her mouth, pleasuring him. my eyes became wide at the sight, I gasped and dropped the bag, and it was then that Xander realized that I was there. "Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt," I said as I walked out of there. my heart was beating a mile a minute, and

  • Taming the cold billionaire (mxw)   good news

    (Michael's pov)looking at Rachael, I can safely say that she's damn beautiful. it's hard to believe that she's not taken, I know that Xander has a thing for her, and I didn't know what he was waiting on to make a move on her before someone else snatches her up. I didn't want to act like a damn stalker, but I couldn't help it. watching the way she was moving around, talking to that friend of hers. the way she frowned as if something was bothering her, or the way she simply threw her hands in the air was attractive enough for me. no, I wasn't going to steal her from Xander, but I could make him jealous by flirting with her. He doesn't know this, but I respect him a lot. I've watched how he made billions from this company, and I've seen the changes he made, and that was all through hard work. something was going on with him, though. I don't know why he chose to mess around when he has someone so perfect right in front of him. I'll play this game, though. I'll play Cupid. so, from now

    (Xander)"What the hell?" I angrily shouted at Michael, who was looking at me with a hurt expression on his face. I did not care about that. He shouldn't have done that. "Uncle Lawrence hired me to watch over this place, and to report to him, I did exactly that. when I saw that you had gotten that amount from your shares at forte trade, I told him. he was the one who spoke to the reporters about it, not me." Michael explained as if I cared. "You know damn well that I don't like being in the media, but yet you couldn't keep your mouth shut about this. you're only working here for a day, and I wish that you weren't here in the first place!" I shouted, feeling my temper rising the more I was in his presence. He had no right, no matter if he was a rat for my father, he had no right to discuss my network like that. now, it was all over the news thanks to him and my father. "Sorry," Michael whispered before walking out of my office. I knew that I shouldn't have treated him like that, but

    (Rachael)it's been two weeks since I noticed the changes in Xander. it made me wonder if it was because of what I had said. everyone was wary of him, trying to get as much work done as possible. he would walk around, checking on us just to make sure that we were working. before now, we could get up from our cubicle and converse with each other, but now Xander made sure that none of us was able to move under his watchful eyes. Kirk is also back, and he was happy with returning since he missed being here. sighing, I tried to get comfortable on the wooden chair, making my ass cheeks hurt like hell. I have been sitting here since I came to work at 9, and now it's 1, and I haven't moved, not even to use the bathroom or get something to eat. everyone else was feeling it as well, I could tell how miserable it must have been for them because it was also happening to me. the only person who got away with anything is Michael, though, since he is Xander's cousin. Xander had left five minutes

    (Xander)"You are testing my patience here Xander, what the hell is going on with you?" Dad asked after he barged into my office. two men were standing off to the side, which seemed to be new bodyguards he hired. "I don't know what you're talking about," I replied, making him glare at me. "You are doing everything that I told you not to. it's been weeks, and I've noticed the changes in you. I'm supposed to be at home resting, but I had to hear from Michael that you are turning my company upside down!" I flinched at the tone of his voice. it's not that I was scared of him, I just wish that he would calm down since he was still sick. "Your employees are too lazy. they deserve some work, so this is nothing." I replied, but Dad didn't like what I said as if I cared. I already made my mind up, and no one is going to stop me. Dad eventually sighed and shook his head. "I'm taking an Easter break, I'm going on a trip to Hawaii. don't worry, Lucy will be there with me. I just need to be abl

    (Rachael)the next day, I arrived at work earlier than expected. if I or any one of my coworkers arrived late, Xander would throw a hissy fit, and I really wasn't in the mood. sighing, I started to massage my temples as I felt a headache coming on. I've been so stressed lately because of what was going on at work. Thankfully, my parents stopped by and took Cole off my hands for the Easter holiday. now, I just have to find a way to relax. I haven't been eating properly during the past couple of weeks because of how strict Xander was acting. the new rules sucked big time. maybe that's also another reason why I felt like my head was going to explode any second now. once I arrived at my cubicle, I saw Emily and Brady in yet another heated argument, but they were whispering, so I couldn't hear them. Emily stopped talking when she saw me and came over to me, leaving Brady standing there glaring at her for dismissing him like that. "Hey, you ok?" Emily asked as if she could tell right awa

    (Rachael)after not answering Xander, he told me that he wanted to talk to me for a minute in private, I might add. I wasn't sure if that was a good move because I was trying my best to steal clear of him. With my headache just starting to go away, I didn't want him to be responsible for me having yet another one. once we were in his office, he closed the door and stood there staring at me with those eyes that did something to me. "I'm sorry," he said suddenly, as my eyes became wide from his apology. "I'm sorry for the way I have been treating you for the past couple of weeks. heck, we didn't start off on the right foot ever since I first met you. I know you probably don't believe me, but I would really like it if you gave me a chance to be your friend." I laughed at his feeble attempt if he thought that I was going to give in, he thought wrong."I spoke to your father. he told me that he threatened to fire you if you don't shape up. if you're trying to apologize to me, I won't buy

I asked him for the day off to take care of you, and he said yes," Emily said, and I nodded my head. it was Xander who brought her, Brady, and Michael here, so she was going to drive with me and my parents back home. our cars were safe at our workplace, so there was no need to worry about that. Brady and Michael left with Xander earlier since Dad was still throwing threats toward him, and he needed to leave as quickly as possible. "Come on, Dad, he did apologize for everything that happened. The least you could do is give him a chance." Dad shot me a glare, which had me closing my mouth. "I will not give someone a chance that feels like it's ok to treat others like that. what if this is all a game to him? What if he's playing you all, and then he goes back to being that bastard once again?" I knew he was right, but I could tell that Xander truly wanted to set things right. "Grandpa, that's not a nice word to call someone,"

  • Taming the cold billionaire (mxw)   Epilogue

    (Rachael's POV)(Six months later)As I stood there watching Cole and Xander playing, I couldn't stop myself from smiling. Knowing that this day had come. I am now six months pregnant after Xander and I had tried for so long. It finally came true. We are having a boy, which doesn't matter to me, I will love my baby no matter the gender. Xander and I could always try for a girl and at the rate that we went when I was trying to get pregnant, I know that one day it will happen. We were talking about the number of kids that we wanted, and I was shocked when Xander said six. I wanted four, but he jumped the gun a bit when he said six. Everything worked out great for everyone else, though. Lawrence was moving around more now without the wheelchair, Lucy had stopped working for him because of some family crisis, and she had to go back home. He and Amy are getting married next month, I can't wait for that to happen;Emily, my dear friend, was happy with the way things turned out. She, Brady

  • Taming the cold billionaire (mxw)   Doing the right thing

    (Xander)I knew that I messed up and shouldn't have said that to Rachael. Fuck, I've been messing up a lot lately. I just didn't know how to tell Rachael why Camille was coming into my office every day for so long. A year ago, I killed a man out of rage. I wanted to protect my family, so I did everything that I could just to make sure that they were okay. My police friend warned me that it would affect me, but I didn't listen to him. I've never listened to anyone when I have made my mind up about something. I went and killed the bastard who shot Rachael, but it had been affecting me a lot. Lately, I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, couldn't stand the sight or smell of certain things. My mind was a mess and because of that, I would always lose control and lash out at Rachael. I thought that I could take it all in without any problems because I'm a man and I shouldn't allow certain things to affect me. But, it was affecting me. It got to me so much that I started having nightmares. I cou

    (Rachael)One year later“Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, dear Micah! Happy birthday to you!” We shouted at the top of our voices. Emily and Brady now have a one-year-old son named Micah. I was at their birthday party celebrating with them, which was a lot of fun. Emily ran up to me and pulled me in for a hug, I'd never seen her so happy before, and I was glad. She had been through a lot with her parents fighting her to work at their hotel, which she finally agreed to do. After Emily and Brady resigned, Xander had to hire two more people, and right now, I was mad at him. It's been six months now since we moved in together in the house that he bought, and five since we got married. Everything was going great, heck, he even caved and told me that he killed the bastard who was after me. I told him that I wasn't mad at him for doing it, I was just mad that he kept it a secret from me. Ok, I'm straying a bit. So, after Xander hired two women to replace Emily

    (Rachael)(Three weeks later)It's been three weeks since I've been in the hospital, and right now, I was dying to get out of here. I was already healed enough to start taking showers, which I had Xander help me with since I didn't trust anyone else. Cole was in school, so he would visit me in the evenings, so I didn't have my son here to keep me company. On days like this, I miss my family a lot. My parents had to go home so that they could help Mariah with Cole and Emily is pregnant, so she won't be able to be here with me all the time. I sighed when I tried to get into the movie that I was watching, but I just couldn't. Thank God, my bag was recovered on sight, and I was able to get my phone back. I took it up and looked at it, wondering why Xander hadn't texted me back yet. He said that he was on his way here and if I needed something to eat. I told him what I wanted and asked if he was okay, but haven't received any response from him. I sighed again, feeling extremely bored and

    (Rachael)I woke up to blinding lights that had me closing my eyes instantly. My throat felt dry, because of a tube that was there. I was confused as to where I was. The beeping sound that was coming from somewhere in the room was also annoying. It took me a moment to realize where I was, and that's when I saw Dr. Hills and two nurses running into the room. After, Dr. Hills checked to make sure that I was alright. He left, saying that he was going to tell my family the good news. He removed the tube and one of the nurses gave me some water to drink, which k greedily accepted. They also gave me something for the pain that I was feeling, which had started to cool down a bit. “Do you remember anything that happened?” I looked at the nurse who spoke, she told me that her name was Anabelle. “I remember some things, but not all. Did Dr. Hills say that my family was here?” Anabelle nodded her head and smiled. “They have been here from the moment you were brought in, Miss. Hale, they have

    (Xander)We stayed at Rachael's side for two weeks now and still no sign of her waking up. Dr. Hills told us that she was getting stronger and was expecting her to make a full recovery, but I couldn't wait. I didn't have the patience for that. Today, I got a call from a police friend of mine, saying that they found out who it was that shot Rachael. I asked him how he found out, and he told me that the fucker took his mask off in front of a store that had that surveillance camera on it. I breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that we were getting somewhere. This time, I told everyone where I was heading so that they wouldn't be worried about me. Cole wanted to come with me, but I had to trick him so that he would stop crying. I told him that I would bring back his favorite pizza, which had him smiling and nodding his head.

    (Xander)Aunt Claudia called me and asked me where I was, but I hung up without replying. I couldn't deal with that shit right now. I just didn't want to be there right now. With my father in the hospital and now Rachael, it was just too stressful for me. I still had to go to work and maintain the house, everything was getting to me and the only thing that I could think of was to drink. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around. Seeing that it was Leon, I groaned. I don't have the time or the patience for anyone right now. I needed to de-stress and this was the only way to do it. “You were going to drive after this?” Leon asked, taking a seat next to me. “Yeah, I can hold my liquor,” I replied while drinking another shot of vodka. I got mad at Leon for telling the bartender not to give me anymore because I was driving, and then I got mad at the bartender for listening to Leon. I pulled a stupid move and took out my gun while pointing it at the bartender, who froze in fear. Leon

    (Xander)The hospital was packed once again with everyone, including Leon and his girlfriend, waiting on hear some sort of good news from Dr. Hills. It wasn't the same hospital that my dad was in, I made sure he was at a more private one where he was comfortable enough. Shortly after, Dr. Hills made his way toward us with a look on his face that I could not understand. Cole started to cry while Mr. Hale tried to comfort him. “Rachael hasn't woken up yet but her surgery was successful, her vital signs are getting stronger by the minute, I can see her leaving here soon. But, she'll need a lot of support once she's out. If you want, you can all see her at the same time, I usually allow one person at a time, but I guess I can make an excuse for now.” I sighed in disappointment, knowing that my fiancé hadn't woken up yet. I walked up to Cole and picked him up, he held on to me as tight as he could while he was sobbing. I was trying my best to comfort him. We headed towards Rachael's room
