Xavion . “And what are you planning this time, Xavion?” Glenn gave me a suspicious look in the eyes. “What do you mean?” I shook my head and made a grin. My emotions seemed out of control when I saw her. I expected it, but then I was caught off guard by how she looked now compared to how she was back then. Her beauty remained undiminished, but now it shone with an even greater radiance than before. Blooming and glowing, and she seems happy. Yes, this is what she wants. Her dream has become her reality, and she used me for that. She obviously got what she wanted after all. She looks better and stronger. Her eyes tell me that. I can feel that. For years, I did my best to forget her - erased her in all possible ways. If only I could erase her image and name inside my heart, I could have done that. I don’t care about the price as long as I will never go through the same pain again. But dammit. Seeing her today breaks all the barriers in my heart. “Come on, Xav, I know you. You hav
Quinn . A slap on the face! Yeah, I deserve it. Marie gently massaged my hair. Instead of going home, I walked like a zombie all the way to Marie's apartment. It's closer to where The Monde Suites building's location. A walking distance only. I felt defeated, hurt, and neglected. And what do I expect? I deserve this. I'm crazy. I know that. Xavion is still attractive to me. He is still my world. I never stopped loving him, and that's the truth. All these years, I never dated anyone. I was waiting for him. I had suitors, but I did not entertain them. It was only him I wanted. "And what's your ex look like?" Marie massaged my scalp. I shut my eyes. "FLG," I sighed. "Hm?" As I open my eyes, I notice that Marie has stopped moving her hand, and one of her eyebrows is raised. "Finger lickin' good," I said, twisting my lips. She laughed. "You are crazy, Quinn." She shook her head. "Did you tell him everything?" I shook my head. "There's no point in telling. He won't listen. I kn
Quinn . An old gentleman named Dan fetched me at precisely seven in the evening. I was looking forward to today, but Xavion suddenly canceled my appointment. Mr Jason Gray, my boss, called me earlier for a follow-up. He can't wait for the merging, as I told him I will send Xavion's legal documents today. But to my disappointment, Xavion canceled our meeting and moved it to this time. The car stopped, and I brought my windows down to check the building. It's a five-star hotel suite owned by the Mondragons. It's flashy as it looks, and it gives a diamond feel. My lips parted as it brought back the memory of Xavion and me, and I overlooked that Mr. Dan had already opened the car door for me. "Thank you, Sir," I said the moment I got out of the car. "Miss Quinn, just call me by my name. I'm not a sir," he slightly laughs. "Enjoy your night, Miss Quinn." "Thank you, Mr. Dan," I smiled and headed off. I entered the elegant hotel, and my hands were sweaty and cold. My flesh is shaki
Quinn . When I arrived at my unit, my tears constantly flowed. It was never-ending. And now that the sun shines, I have no energy left, and here I am, still hugging my pillow, thinking of him. My eyes are red and swollen. I can't go to work like this. So, I sent my boss a message and asked one of my assistants to get the legal document I had with me. "It's all good, Quinn. Have your rest. You did great. Just bring it with you next time when you feel a lot better. At the moment, I'm scanning the documents you sent me. This will do at the moment. Thank you, Quinn." Mr. Jason expressed his gratitude in the line. "It's my job, Sir. Thank you for understanding." "Your voice seems so down. Is there something wrong? Have you had your breakfast?" "I don't feel like eating, Sir. I will be fine." "Okay. Food will be delivered today for you. Don't worry," he said in his bubbly voice and laughed. He ended the call after that. I sighed as I headed towards the toilet. I'm thankful that Mr.
Quinn . I’m nervous like a mouse afraid of the cat. I don’t know how I’ll react, seeing Xavion again. My leave was over. I returned to work three days ago, and Mr. Jason Gray had a blast. Four days ago, the party was in his place. I didn’t attend. I don’t feel like partying. He was celebrating the merging of his company with one of the Mondragon’s companies. He was over the moon and very thankful to me, and now that the merging is on and the work has begun, I will temporarily assist Xavion with Mr. Jason Gray’s company side. Why me again? Why not Jarrod, his son? How could he do this? I already told him on the phone that I couldn’t work under Xavion anymore. But then why again? - “Mr. Xavion exclusively asked for you, Miss Quinn, and for me to say no to the man who fulfilled my dream is rude. Please, Miss Quinn, do me a favor this time. You are the best person in this field, and I don’t want any mistakes. My son, Jarrod, is prone to that. I cannot trust him.” - I was back at T
Xavion . “So, you’re keeping Quinn on your den?” Glenn’s brows furrowed abruptly with a hideous smile. I shook my head, avoiding eye contact. “I know what’s running on your mind now, bro. I saw how flared your eyes when you looked at Jarrod earlier. It seems like you want to kill him beside Quinn. That was funny, bro.” He chuckled and slightly shook his head. “Why do you need Quinn to work under you? It will be uncomfortable for both of you.” I put all the remaining papers in my drawer and prepared to leave for dinner. “I don’t know, Glenn. I just want her as a possession. That’s all.” I said and shut the drawer. “A possession? Are you treating her as a possession now? Do you have an idea of what you are saying now?” He nearly laughed. “As far as I know, Quinn left you. Not just once, but twice. It’s not my business to interfere in your personal life, but you are my cousin. And I have to remind you again that your father will not be happy with this. When are you going to tell
Xavion . As soon as Trinity stepped through the main gate of my mansion, my phone beeped. I pulled it out of my pocket and gestured to the two bodyguards who were approaching us. Both of them bowed their head halfway when they saw that it was me. Trinity looked at me while I was reading the messages from the group chat. Drew: @Xavion, look at who we got here. Drew attached a photo. It’s the back view of Quinn and Jarrod, sitting and drinking in the VIP bar of Monde Rock Bar. Norman: Is that Quinn? Who is that person beside her? Is that the new boyfriend? Bryce: Damn, she looks hot as ever. Why the hell is that idiot Jarrod with her? Where’s the Reaper@Xavion? You finally give up on her. Good on you! I saw you and Trinity just now. It’s the first time, bro. Congratulations. You ultimately choose what’s best for you. Bryce sent a laughing emoticon who rolled over like shit. The other boys followed, sending a fire laugh and a crying emoticons face. Effing, shits. Bryce can see m
Xavion . "I'm sorry," she said, almost like a whisper. I felt my jaw tighten as I carefully placed her on top of my bed. She let go of me, and she sounded asleep already. I slowly stood up and stared at her for a second, releasing a sigh. I move to the end of the bed and take off her stilettos. I slightly shook my head after removing them. Seeing the anklet with a dangling pendant, I gave her more than three years ago proves she still loves me. I sighed, stood up, gritted my teeth, and surveyed her clothes. I guess I have no other choice but to change her. The top she's wearing with her fit body blazer looks uncomfortable. I shook my head and sat on the edge of the bed. "I don't know what to do with you, Quinn. You are stubborn as hell. Do you think you can handle everything on your own? You are wrong, darling," I weakly uttered. I was about to unbutton her blazer, but her hands moved, now touching my fingers. "Xavion…" She opened her eyes, and my heart fluttered. There was a
