Saying My Goodbyes

2022-01-25 18:41:57…Xavien POV…
As I stand here, every part of my heart that still has some sort of feeling left for Mekayla, screams do not do this. But then we come to that part that is just so tired of being hurt that this is saying that this is the only way that this shall be.So it is with a heavy and somewhat bruised heart that I find myself packing some of my belongings in a suitcase, the very suitcase that I came here with only but over a year ago. It feels sad to leave my life here behind like this, but I shall build a new life back in the city, back in the city where I belong.While I am packing, I am packing a part of me away. I cannot help but think of how this is going to affect Mekayla when she finally wakes up. Will she be just as devastated that I am gone as what I am in leaving? This is a thought that I will not entertain. They say that guilt is a bitter pill to swallow. The last thing I need now is to feel this.But what they also do say is that a maRelated chapters
The Billionaire Contract The End Of A Playboy
…Xavien POV…Is this the call that we all have been waiting for? There is a coldness of pure dread that suffocates my heart. Even though every ounce is telling me, run away and don't look back. There is that tiny piece that lays locked up in the very deepest depths of my heart where I have placed my feelings for Mekayla. I do not want to scratch that layer open.But I just need to know; I shall not ever be able to live with myself if I do not hear the news on the other side of this call. As my voice tremble out of fear, but most of all hurt, I take a deep breath and pull my truck onto the side of the road."Catalina, what is wrong?""Mekayla, she is awake. She woke up twenty minutes ago. You must come.""What about Damian?""Xavien, I do not know what is going on between her and that man. But I know that she will be happy to see you."So I am left with this choice, do hope and love make me turn this truck around, or does pain and fail

…Mekayla POV…Xavien refuses to speak to me; Damian just had to go and kiss me at the very moment that Xavien showed up. Yes, I never broke the engagement off; I thought if I just leave that he would get the message. But the man is obviously as thick as a doornail. I never really knew why we stayed together for so long; we were not even compatible, let alone did we have the same ambitions and desires in life. His biggest fault that he found in me was my compassion towards people that need the help, and that could not afford it. It still is my passion, and I am not willing to give it up for any man. If you cannot see my value in life and respect them, then there is no place for you in my life.And one such very person would be Xavien; he understands me, he believes in me, yet he does not know me that well. Now, because of the asshole that is sitting next to me, what Xavien and I have built up lays in tatters. But I have had enough of this."Damian, you ne

…Xavien POV…I thought I saw her this morning. In the crowd, she was standing with hot cocoa that she bought from the corner shop. As I came up to her, it was not her. Was I disappointed or not? I don't know.It has been a week that I am back in the city. I have taken over the business. I feel in a strange way alive. That suite that I did not want to define me. It has defined me, and yes, I like it.Do I miss my life on the ranch? Of course, I do, every day. Those are the days when I am locked up in meetings that can take endless hours, but in these endless hours, I realize that what my father did was not just sit behind a desk. My father made a difference, and that is a difference that I can say I am proudly part of. On the ranch and in that forsaken little town, I was the outcast; here I am, a man that you want to be seen with.That is still a part of this life that I am trying to get used to. The spotlight, being under the eyes of everyone all th

…Mekayla POV…The day has come for me to go back to the city, it took a lot of convincing, but my dad gave in and agreed that it is time for me to get back into living my normal life again.What is a normal life?There is no such thing that exists if I am not with Xavien. I tried my best for Billy to tell me where he is in the city but Molly and he promised me that they did not know where he is. As for Mr. SinClair, he also has no idea either. I am not going to the city because I want to get back to work, yes there is a small part of me that wants to, but the biggest part is to find Xavien.I don't know where to begin. He was so secretive about his life that I realize that I actually know nothing about him. Then again, are we not all if we have been hurt so many times has he has.So I have packed up the little belongings that I have here in one suitcase while Catalina is nervously pacing the room from one side to the other. I don't know what ha
Last Updated : 2022-01-25The Billionaire Contract I Want To Feel You
…Mekayla POV…To say that I was completely shocked out of my mind is an understatement. Everything comes flooding back to me. The way that my mom, well, apparently not my mom, but the way she treated me explains it all. It also explains why Catalina was so overprotective of me. And perhaps it could also, amongst so many other reasons, be why my mom, UGH, this is going to be confusing. But anyway, it explains why there was friction in their marriage.So I took it as best as that I can and told them they should give me time to process it, which is a complete lie, for all I want to do is get back to the city. The thing is, it really does not bother me that my mom is not my real mom, for we were never close, and she really did treat me badly. As for Catalina, we have a good relationship; obviously, I need to see her as my mom now. It is going to take some time, but we will get through this and build that relationship that a mom and daughter should.With that

…Mekayla POV…Perfect! Absolutely perfect!There is no Caruso International.How can that even be? He clearly said his name was Xavien Caruso. Maybe I am spelling it wrong."Pearce International."Even more less than nothing. Did I really get his last name wrong? Even more terrifying did he give me the wrong name, to begin with. Why would Xavien want to be so secretive about his dad's company? I cannot foresee it to be such a big deal. I mean, all my dad's little companies were big to him. But yes, a girl never guesses a size to a boy.So this has now become a lot more complicated than I thought it would be. But not truly, the question begs, how big is our boy on social media? God, do I even want to search his name? Well, no matter what it comes up with, I need to find him. So here it goes, I pull my laptop closer again and type with fingers beyond a snail's pace."Xavien Caruso."Oh my god!…Xavien POV…W
Last Updated : 2022-01-25The Billionaire Contract What Are The Odds?
…Xavien POV…Xavien Caruso, I would like to say that I am proud that I let everyone believe that it was truly my real name. Well, it is, in fact, half of it. I am better known as Xavien Chase, I carry the last name of my father proudly, but when I left this life behind in the first place, I left with being a Caruso. Caruso being the last name my mother held before she married, so in a true sense, I never once did lie; I just made it hard for people to find me. If you are running away from a life, you need not have a tie that binds you there. For me, it was always changing my last name.The only man that knows the game of deceit I play is Steve, my father's dear friend and the lawyer of the company. He is sitting with me, going over the final draft of changing Caruso Enterprises to Chase Enterprises. My dad did name the Company after my mom all that years ago; I wish to make it a family legacy.But this man is sitting oddly and smiling at me as if his tee

…Xavien POV…Was it all real?My mind plays over what my body just felt. Every aching bone tells me that I had Mekayla between my very arms only but a few moments ago. Yet my mind tells me that I must be going crazy. But if I am indeed so crazy, why do I have a rather furious Candice staring back at me. The woman that I have been trying so hard to run away from, had her lips so elegantly and so sweetly locked with mine.Whom am I fooling?I need her more than I want to admit, and she is here, I am not letting her slip away, not again. I am afraid that if I continue my foolishness that she will be lost to me forever. I can only but show the deepest regret in my eye as I look at Candice."Sorry, but I have to do this.""It is fine Xavien, go before she is gone."With a soft peck on the cheek, I leave her standing, I know that it is not fine for her, but at least she will understand.It is with haste that I make my way into the ball

Heartache makes up that defining moment. And my choice is never to love again.Yes, it sounds like some country and western song; hey, I can even throw my boots on and dance to it. The sad what is, when something comes to an end, then it comes to an end.Mekayla was, well, yes, as her name says, Mekayla. Mekayla that comes with sunshine, that brings a new day.

The Billionaire Contract Two Miracles Brought To Life
...Xavien POV...The day has finally arrived.Today the babies are born.Mekayla is completely petrified, pacing the room as she is trying to get into her hospital gown. She has been going to see this doctor, but to me, it does not seem that there is any approvement. Now, I have asked her and the doctor what is going on, but neither of them wants to tell me. 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. Well, not that she would listen because what I say really does not count, for she does keep on reminding me that we have separated. She does not want to understand my perspective, and I don't know what is wrong with her. At this rate, it is not helping us both.So once she has put on that godawful hospital gown, the nurses come to push her bed through to the operating theatre. Not once does she hold my hand as we move thro
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
...Xavien POV...I have moved back to the ranch and have been here for two weeks now. I can honestly say that I feel more relaxed and myself again. 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
The Billionaire Contract What Is Left Fighting For?
. ...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. She is going for thirty-four weeks soon, and she is going on like a complete lunatic.I have found any and every reason to stay at work these days, and of course, I am having an affair with Barbara. Well, if I wanted to have an affair, I wo
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. The moment I step my last step towards the door, I near jump as I hear her voice c
The Billionaire Contract The Winters Carnival
...Xavien POV...It is a very long and painful drive back to the Winters's mansion. My dear wife is not in a good mood today. She, as of a few minutes ago, decided that she does not like the dress that she is wearing. So guess what?I had to turn around and go home.Now we are finally back on the road to the town, officially extremely late. Yet, she is still not in a better mood. Mekayla is absolutely grumpy. The snacks that I packed for her are completely wrong. The way I cut the pickle is not right and let us not forget that I did not put enough strawberries with the chocolate spread.She is absolutely impossible.I am already annoyed as it is because we are living in the damn city again, and now my wife is driving me insane. Mekayla is in her own world by herself; she only lives for her; I don't know if she sees the babies as real little people or toys that she can dress up. She has been buying the most ridiculous outfits online, I am putting it
