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 sRelated chapters
The Billionaire Contract Once Upon A Christmas
...Xavien POV...It was a cold rainy Christmas night; the Caruso Family returned home after an eventful evening full of laughter and smiles at their dear family friends, the Johnsons. It was relatively late, and my father did not feel confident to take the long way home, so I offered to drive instead. Now driving in the rain is not something that makes me feel at ease. Yet that is not an excuse for what happened only but five minutes after we pulled onto the icy roads.I was going at a fairly decent speed, taking my time and safely navigating my way through the pouring rain. The mood was joyful; we were making plans for the after Christmas party for the next day. It was Caruso Family tradition only to hand out presents the day after; my mom used to say that then it is more appreciated for giving a gift on Christmas day was more of a task than a pleasure.With only a few minutes into our trip, the car caught an ice patch on the road, the tires slipped sharply to the ri

MEANWHILE IN THE HOSPITALCatalina just walked in with Grant and heard that Mekayla almost died. Her face turns as white as snow. She can not believe what she just heard Tina say. But Mekayla's mother will not let this go down so easily. She is ready to fight with someone. Not because of Mekayla's accidents but because her party has been ruined. So she walks with fury in her steps towards Catalina."What is she doing here?""Honey, you know that she needs to be here."Catalina does not hear one word that Mrs. Winters has to say. Her complete focus is on Tina. She put her hands on Tina's shoulders, and Tina looks at her hands. Then it is as if Catalina remembers who she is. For a moment, she forgot who she is and where her place is because Mekayla is the most important person in her life."I am sorry, Miss Winters. I did not mean to offend you, but can you please tell me why did you say that Mekayla almost died?"Tina looks into Catalina's eyes and reali

…Xavien POV…Sitting here in the darkness, there is a little piece of me that is slowly dying. I have never felt such a connection with a woman before; I cannot bear to be away from her for one second. Yes, I have had my share of women, but none of them comes close in comparison to Mekayla. As long as I hear that machine beep, I know that there is still hope for us. I know that when she opens her eyes, the first thing that I shall do is go down on my knees and beg her forgiveness. After that, I will open my heart and soul to her; I will express the love that I feel in my heart for her. I have only met her, but I feel a deep love in my heart for her.I know, there is that absolute certainty that she shall soon return from where she is. So I step out of my corner for a moment; I need to feel the warmth of her touch again. I take her soft hand into mine and gently squeezes her palm. There is a smile that grows at the corner of my lips; the comfort of her touch l

…MEKAYLA'S HOSPITAL ROOM……Catalina POV…I cannot believe this is happening. I should have told Mekayla the truth a long time ago. Now I am sitting in this dreadful hospital room; it is torture beyond compare. Every moment that the clock ticks it is one more second that Mekayla is away from us. My heart feels ripped right open; not knowing what is happening is slicing every bit of me open.I lay my head against her chest to hear if I can listen to his heart beating. I know that as long as that machine is making a noise, then I know that she is alive as long as that machine breathes for her, that she will wake up. She is just sleeping; she is just tired.But just as then I hear that noise, a man clearing his throat. I turn my eyes to the corner and call out, "Is there someone here?"I wait for an answer, but my question goes unnoticed. Just as I am about to rise from my chair, I see a very handsome young man that steps out of the c

…BACK IN THE WAITING ROOM……Catalina POV…All chaos has broken loose in the Winters family.Mrs. Winters is making it clear that she does not want to be here. Regardless of Grant's constant request to say calm and to stop worrying about her damn nonsense, she clearly refuses to listen to him. Her actions are raising a few eyebrows from Tina. It is only but time, and the secrets are going to be out.As for Tina, she is completely devastated, something that I never thought I would see from her. All she does is watch this craziness in front of her unfold. I walk over to her, where she is sitting alone on the one side of the room, with her hands in her hair. I can hear her crying, but she is too scared to show her face, for she knows that Mrs. Knightly shall not approve of her showing tears to a sister that is not truly hers. Like Mrs. Winters used to say that Mekayla is the bastard child in the family.So I lay my hand gently on her

…Xavien POV…There is a man who has just entered Mekayla's hospital room, I have no idea who he is, but he seems somewhat irritated by my presence. I can only think that he is a family member that must have come from out of town. Not having to cause any problems, I politely get up to greet the man before I go."Hi, sorry I am intruding. I am Xavien," now I need to think of my next words very carefully. "I am a friend of Mekayla.""Well, it is good to see that she has some friends down here. I am Damian, Mekayla's fiancé."At the very mention of the word, I get knocked down to my knees as a suffocating grip takes hold of my heart. Mekayla never once mentioned that she had a fiancé. Why would she lie about such a thing? Do I even dare to ask? This is none of my business; I think I have once again overstepped a line that should not have been crossed.It is with a very heavy heart that I make my way out of the hospital room; not givin

…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 ma

…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

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.

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.

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.
