With Happiness Comes Fear

last update Last Updated: 2022-01-25 19:32:25

…Mekayla POV…

We have just received the most incredible news; as Xavien would say, that miracle that we were hoping for has now come true. I could never understand the blind faith that he has in something that I never could see and least of all believed. If it were not for him that kept on pushing me to my limits and even beyond that, we would not be sitting in this room and finding out that there is no blood clot at all. Xavien is that rock that I have leaned on all my life, and I can honestly say that I am grateful that he has not given up on me for even one day at all.

I, along with Xavien, have not stopped crying since we have heard the news. Xavien is holding me tighter than I think he has ever done before. He is sobbing even louder than I am; there is some part of me that must fight the urge not to giggle back at him. But his cries are pure sounds of relief. All the pain and uncertainty are washing away with every single tear that falls down his cheek.

    …Mekayla POV…This man is absolutely sinful; he can be dangerous one moment, then all sweet and sexy the next. And now, he is staring at me with that darn cheeky smile on his face,"Come on, princess, just a minute.""Mr. Caruso, I somehow don't think that you are a one-minute man, and No! we are in my office."Yes, Xavien has come with me for the day to see where I play, to see what I do that is so important to me. Even though I might have found the man I love, I am still not giving up on my dream to open my own practice. So this is why I brought him here to understand that no matter what wealth we both carry, this is still the only thing that I want to do. And, apart from trying to pin me down onto my desk, I think he seems to understand.Well, I think that is until…Hi picks me up and sits me on the edge of the table; he grabs my ankles and slides me closer to the edge of the table."Xavien, I said no. Not here.""Pleas

And by the looks of him, he was obviously not worth mentioning in the first place.As I stand here against the door, I cannot hear much of what is going on. I keep on telling myself she is fine and if she is not that she will call me.And then, just as I feared, I hear her scream. I grab hold of my gun and burst through the door only to find the bastard raising his hand to my princess."Get your hands off her!"The minute he sees me raising my gun and walk toward him, he drops his hand and looks at me with a goddam grin on his."Wipe that shit off your face and get your fucking hands off her."The minute he lets go, she runs straight into my arms. Her soft historical sobs are enough to get my blood boiling. It seems that someone needs to be taught how to have respect for a woman. Unfortunately for

    ...Mekayla POV...So it seems that my mom's little pet, Raymond is that scumbag that I first thought him to be after all. No to say that he actually has some guts to go as far as this remains to be seen even after Xavien has warned him on more than one occasion to stay away from me. Well, it seems that the man is still left to learn his lesson; I just hope for my mom's, wait, that woman that I use to call my mother, I just hope for her sake that she is not the one that has told him where to find me.Now to say that Xavien is not scared of his head would be a blatant lie, and I hate to say that it all in only but a matter of one day.

I am not a man for soft and tender moments, but this is something I could easily get used to every day. I do sound like every part of me has gone all mushy inside, but this is how I shall feel about her for as long as I possibly can.As I see her slowly start to stir, I cannot but help get an enormous smile on my face. If I thought I looked like a mess when I wake, her head of fuzzy hair is the cutest thing I have ever seen."Morning, princess.""Hey, you.""How did you sleep?""Like a baby. What was it that you mumbled before I fell asleep last night?"Damn, I was so hoping she did not hear what I said last night. I never thought that I would say it to a woman, at least not so soon anyway. My ego is far too big to admit it to her now."Nothing; I think I might have just ki

"Oh, you know what is the matter, Raymond.""It is between my fiance and me.""Wow, when did that happen?" Mekayla says, surprised."No need to get clever with me, Mekayla. You know that you have been promised to me.""Mekayla is not your property, Raymond, and it would be wise for you not to refer to her as your fiancé.""The last time I checked, she was, and she is not yours, Caruso, so why do you not just do us both a favor and leave."Then, at last, Mrs. Winters decides to step in.

First, it was Damian coming after me, and now it is Raymond. I can honestly say that I have truly tested Xavien's love for me.
