2022-01-05 18:19:21...Xavien POV...
With every step I take away from Mekayla, my heart is crushed into small pieces. Every bone in my body wants to turn back and take her into my arms. I need to protect her and not turn a blind eye to what is happening. She does not have to be alone even though she insists that she should. I am not a man that walks away from a woman in need; having to leave her like that goes against everything I stand for.And to make it even worse is the man I have to leave her in there with. This man just had her pressed up against a wall, and believe me; it is not in a good way. Who knows what else he is capable of. What is up with the men in her life that treat her this way. I don't understand how she just lets it happen. Surely she knows that she deserves better than men like Raymond. I should have knocked him harder than I did.So as I walk back to the table, I see Molly look at me in a cheeky way and smile."I hope that you did that to him.""The man iRelated chapters
The Billionaire Contract Secrets Of Mekayla
…Mekayla POV…I'm on your way back home from a date that I, in the first place, didn't even want to go on, and now I come back with a huge amount of trouble on my shoulders. I loved the way that Xavien cared for me, and if it wasn't for him, I don't know where I would be. I would probably be coming home with a few new bruises. I look back on my life, and I know that I need to open up to someone about what's going on in my life, and if I'm honest with myself, Xavien will be that man.But first, I need to deal with whatever is waiting for me at home. After paying for the taxi that took me home. I slowly walk up the daunting stairs opening the front door. To my surprise, my mom is opening the door and standing with a big smile on her face."And? How was it?""Was what?""Your date?""Mother, I came back in a taxi…what do you think?""It must mean that he had to go somewhere urgently? You know he has a great many businesses that he

…Xavien POV…There are some things in your life you wish you never had to think of. Some things that you wish you can sweep underneath the rug and hope that is where they will stay. Now I have had my fair share of bad luck, if not by my own hands, then by the one of another. Now, if you think you can keep them right where they belong, then you are sorely mistaken. They will find a way to pop their head up when you least expect it.Now there is a story that I do not often tell; in fact, not even Mr. Sinclair and Billy know of it. There was a girl that I met through a good friend of mine; I truly did fall head over heels in love with her. We spend almost every waking moment together, so it was only natural that I asked for her hand in marriage. So as all things got with couples at this stage of a relationship, I trusted her with everything. But I never expected her to show me what her true colors were. How she waited patiently for a year is beyond my understand

…Xavien POV…Leaving my father's old offices does remind me of so many things. The thing is that it is not just my father's office, but it is mine. I am supposed to sit up in that big old office and order people around. That…that is just not me. I do not wish to spend my life living with material things that shall bring you joy for only a few minutes. I believe in building meaningful relationships with people; live a simple life with simple things. I doubt that I shall ever come to take my rightful place here.Pushing this to the back of my mind, I leave the city; I leave the Xavien that I do not wish to be behind. It has been a rather eventful week so far. But not all of it was bad; I have come closer to Mekayla every time I see her; we are building that bond, that relationship. We are creating the very thing that I desire the most, but I am yet too scared to look for it. Women will always emphasize their broken hearts, but they fail to notice that me

…Mekayla POV…With the kiss between Xavien and me still very much alive in my thoughts, I climb the wall to get into my window, but I stop halfway as the thought of his lips on mine captivated me completely for a moment, and I experience it all over again. I get back through my window and who do I find waiting for me in my room. My mother."Hello, mother.""Hello, mother? Is that all you can say? I have been waiting for you for over an hour, and then I had to make some lousy excuse as to why you did not come back from freshening up?""I told you that I do not like Raymond and that he is only after your money.""And I have told you that you are wrong about him. I have seen what kind of a person he is, and he will be a good husband for you like your father is to me."Well, that is an understatement of the year. As I recall throughout my childhood that my dad did a little more than just talk to my mother, and she was more than once away on "h

…Mekayla POV…I am standing in the middle of a field, and a storm starts to form around me. I feel scared and alone; then, suddenly, I feel someone putting their hands around my waist from behind me. At first, I struggle to get out of his grip, but then I smell his softwood lace with spice filling my senses, and I know that this is not a man that is going to hurt me, but he is here to protect me. I put my hands on top of his, and he entwines my fingers with his. He puts his head on my shoulder, and I feel his breathing against my neck.Everything stands still at that moment, and I know that I am safe. I know that nothing can harm me and that no storm can touch me. I feel his lips softly kissing me on my neck, and then I see thunder coming down from heaven, and it is coming right at me, with one loud bang…I wake up. My eyes are wide open, and I know this was all just a dream. I slow my breathing down and fall back on my pillow.The morning of the C

…Mekayla POV…I take a deep breath to face the rest of the night with Raymond. The only thing that keeps me going is the thought of seeing Xavien later tonight. I just need to be here for a few hours, and then I will start faking a sickness. I hope my plan works because I really need to see Xavien tonight, even if it is just for a moment."You look so beautiful tonight, Mekayla."I look at my mother standing there waiting with anticipating to hear my response to his all so charming words."Thank you, Raymond."I walk downstairs, and he holds out an arm for me to hook my hand into. That is the last thing I want to do. I want to turn and get out of this hell hole. But the only thing that gets me through the night is the thought of seeing quite possibly the love of my life. My mother then turns around and starts to attend to the rest of her guests."What do you think is going to happen between us? Do you really think this is going to go somew

...AT THE WINTERS MANSION...Raymond starts to look for Mekayla. He is getting frustrated because he needs her to introduce him to the cream of the crop, and without her by his side, he is but nothing to them. He quickly walks towards the bathroom he thinks she was in and knocks on the door, but nobody answers. He then proceeds to look in every bathroom but does not find her. Mekayla's mother sees he is looking frantically for something and then approaches him."Raymond, darling. Is everything okay?""Ah, Mrs. Winters. No, I am actually looking for Mekayla; she said that she is not feeling well and then-"Mrs. Winters lifts a hand in the air toward him to stop talking."Oh, no, that girl did it again. Follow me"She turns around impatiently and walks upstairs to Mekayla's room. She knocks on the door and then open it. Then she stares at the window. She knows that when that window is open on an icy cold night like tonight, it only means one thing."

…Xavien POV…I was unaware of how a single friendly gesture might have seemed if there is a bit more to what the eyes were seeing. Of course, I know what my relationship with Sammy is, but did Mekayla know? Somehow I don't think so, for that hurt in her face showed me that I have just made a far bigger mistake than I realized.It only took me but a few steps, and I was right at the door, but she was far faster than what I was. The moment I saw her speeding off in her car, I knew by the way the car was swerving that she was far more upset than it seemed she was.But then it happened, it happened so fast. She must have lost control, for her car started to spin on the icy road, round and round, in circles she goes. I watch as her body is flung from one side of the car to the other. Then it lifts off the road and tumbles, moving inches closer and closer to a large old tree on the side of the road. Then she comes crashing to a horrific stop as her car slams s

And as for Tina, Mekayla has not told her either.Now she is here working herself up, and believe me; I ain't the one telling a pregnant woman that is about to give birth to calm down.

The Billionaire Contract Fix What Is Broken
…Mekayla POV…I am losing my husband; in fact, I think that I have already lost him. My insecurities have taken me over. I fear that I am not strong enough, or even a good even wife for him, for I cannot keep myself together. I have taken my failure to trust him about how I feel out on him. How is he supposed to have meant to know that I was going through a hard time dealing with what happened? If I only sat down with him, then he would not have left our home.So here I have Tina, that is just as frustrated at me for not wanting to listen, for refusing to go speak to a doctor that will listen. Have I really gone that mad that I find myself in this room? I have trusted no one to help me; why should I trust someone to help me now? Our precious little babies are to be born in a few weeks, and here I cannot control my emotions. Not the hormonal ones, but the ones that will drive you to insanity.I guess I drove the man away from me that I truly did love. I h
The Billionaire Contract The Lessons Of Life

I have been able to do the things that I enjoy and still run my company at the same timeAs for Mekayla, yes, I miss her a lot. We keep in contact regularly, but that is mainly talking about the babies though. I try at all costs not to say anything else to avoid getting into an argument. Well, not that I am saying that the arguments have stopped, for I do get the angry message and then a call out of the blue.It has been a real challenge having to start a new life again when you thought that you had the perfect one. Every time I look at those divorce papers, I really wonder if we did just moved into things too quickly. Perhaps, if I did not insist on us marrying so soon, things would have been different. Who knows? All that I know is that our marriage has not been working.Tina has been struggling to get Mekayla to th
The Billionaire Contract More Than The Eyes Can See
…Mekayla POV...Things between Xavien and me have not been going well. We are constantly fighting, and it just seems to me that he has lost all interest in the babies and me. His work has become more important to him. He is a completely different man; I honestly do not know who he is anymore. In a way, I think that Xavien and me moved too fast, too soon.I know that I am hormonal and that the pregnancy is taking more out of me than I thought it would. I am not coping; the idea of having to bring up two babies scares me. I don't know if I will even be a good mom if I cannot be a good wife. But then again, Xavien himself is not really trying.Instead of us talking this out, we are just running apart. I feel like I am losing my mind. I am falling into a deep depression. I want to have it all, I want to have two beautiful babies, a handsome husband, and a perfect career, but right now, all I have is the fear of bringing these two into the world.It is not like

. ...Xavien POV...I have moved out into the guest room permanently.Things in the Caruso household have gone from tense to nothing at all. Mekayla and me barely talk to each other, and when we do, we find ourselves in an argument. I have stopped counting the number of stupid things that we fight over. That damn cribs are still standing there; Grant told her to sort her shit out and to stop being so unreasonable. Now when I wanted to agree with him, I found a plate come flying towards my head.Mekayla has gone completely insane, and I mean that in the nicest of ways.She is working herself up to a frenzy every day, which the doctor told her to clearly stop doing for her stress levels are not good for the babies.

The Billionaire Contract The Honeymoon Is Over
..Xavien POV...I guess at some stage in every marriage; the honeymoon phase becomes over. Well, that has no officially happened with Mekayla and me. Now, if I say that we want to kill each other, then that is a slight understatement. We cannot be in the same room for longer than a few minutes before heading out into an argument. Mekayla has become completely unbearable to be around. I do understand the woman is pregnant, but her behavior is completely irrational.This morning I am trying to sneak out of what has been my new room, the guest room, for what is now the third night in a row. I am trying to get out of the house before she sees me to start yet another fight over something that I have not done or, even worse, that I have forgotten about.So after having a shower, which, unfortunately, I cannot do in silence, I quickly get dressed and head downstairs with my laptop bag in hand.
