LANA'S POV I was in awe of everything that Xavier did this morning. There was a full course breakfast on the living room table, with a variety of fruits and drinks. And a movie was paused on TV, "Notebook" on the screen. It was everything a girl could ever ask for from a man. My heart instantly became full and content. I was giggling to myself and could not believe that I was falling in love with Xavier all over again, and maybe a little more than before."This looks delicious, Xavier. And we are going to watch the Notebook, are you serious?" I squealed with joy as I took steps closer to him. "I knew you would like this," he sounded proud of himself, and he had to be. "I love this, Xavier." I wrapped my arms around him and rested my head on his chest. And I took in his smell and savoured it. His scent made me feel at peace. He smelled and felt like a man. His chest was hard and broad. I was obsessed.It took me a moment to realize how much I missed this with him. Even though I didn'
DAX'S POVI was driving in my car, my mind racing and contemplating what I was going to do with Sasha when I arrived at her place. She had no business to run her mouth to my father about Lana and Xavier after almost leaking their sex tape video. This time around, she needed to learn a lesson to not mess with my wife. When I got outside her driveway, I hopped out of my car and rushed to her front door. I banged and banged but there was no answer. Just when I was about to kick the door down, the door opened. An elderly woman stood at the front door. She had to be her mother or some elderly family member of hers, but I didn't care. "Where is Sasha?" I snapped. "I don't know who that is. Who are you?" The lady answered in confusion. If I remembered correctly, Sasha's mother was not in town and not this old. Her grandmother died, and she had no family member who was as old as her. Unless this was one of her silly games. She had to know better than to play games with me when I was lookin
XAVIER'S POV"Father, why are you making me and Lana going to the same college such a big deal?" I disrupted my father. "I don't want scandal attached to this family name about brothers being with the same girl!" He snapped. "And I will not have you both kill each other for her!" He added. “And who said that we are seeing the same girl?” “Are you denying it? Are you saying that it’s not true that you once dated Lana?” He still insisted. “Who told you that Lana and I dated in college?” It was impossible that anyone could have known about our affair in college. “People talk,” he answered."You need to leave Father if you're going to make such claims on my face without expecting me to snap back at you." I calmly responded to him. "Dax is your brother. You need to think about that before thinking that you can take Lana back from him." He pointed a finger at me.I remembered that Lana didn't want people to know about our triad relationship yet, it meant so much to her that we weren't
LANA'S POV"Your father seemed terribly angry, Xavier. What do you think he is going to do about this now that we are all invited for dinner?" I asked, getting dressed. My heart was pounding fast against my chest. I felt nervous and hated the thought of being on Mr. Salvatore's bad books. If I could tell him, I could tell him that I meant well for his sons. I was content with two of them in my life and never felt happier than I had ever been since I had the opportunity to live under the same roof with them. "Don't worry, he is not angry with you. You are his daughter-in-law. The only person he is mad at is me." Xavier's voice sounded sad. It was unfair that his father could not even hide the fact that he no longer wanted him in his house. He didn't do anything to him except to follow his dream as a doctor and refuse to follow in his business footsteps. As the only parent alive, he was supposed to support both of his sons and be there for them, regardless of the fact that he could no
LANA’S POV Dax’s words of rejecting his inheritance if Xavier leaves the house, kept replaying in my mind. I could not believe that after being so close to getting my heart transplant, it suddenly seemed impossible for me to achieve. This weighed heavily on my heart that I felt like I could not breathe. Even when Dax took me upstairs to the bedroom, I could not utter a single word. “If my father thinks that I am going to be a coward and choose him to drag me by my nose, he got another thing coming. He can shove his inheritance up his ass,” Dax declared as he took off his clothes. I went and sat at the edge of the bed, unable to lift a finger to take off my clothes as I saw my life flashing right before my eyes. I refused to still tell Dax about the true reason that I agreed to his contract deal. I did not want my life to rest entirely on the palm of his hands. I wanted to get the money according to our deal contract and not because of his pity since we were together. “Father forget
LANA’S POV When we were done with breakfast, it turned out that the two gentlemen had something in mind, and it made me curious as to what. They both came and took my hands into theirs and led me upstairs to the guest room. When we got inside, Xavier locked the door behind us, and I went to sit on the bed with Dax. When I saw both taking off their jackets and shirts, I squirmed. “What’s going on?” I asked, feeling nervous. “Don’t you wish to know how it would feel to have the both of us making love to you?” Dax locked eye contact with me while throwing his shirt away, leaving his broad chest exposed before me. My heart raced, and I felt a shiver down my spine. It intrigued my imagination to know how it would feel to have them making love to me. To feel their hands all over my body and lose myself entirely around them. When I tried to entertain this imagination, I felt a throb between my legs and a sweat formed on my forehead while my lips got dry. I was yearning for them. “If you
XAVIER’S POV When I got inside my car, I quickly slid the key into the ignition and drove away. Luckily, I knew where I was going after I was successfully able to find an apartment before moving out of my father’s house. His mind was made up about getting rid of me, and there was nothing that I could do. And for the first time in years, I felt tears at the corners of my eyes. And as much as I tried to push them away, they just rushed down. “Not this again.” I took out the little gin bottle that I always had in my car and took a sip. What hurt more was the fact that I left without seeing Lana and didn’t know how to tell her that I was already out of the house and never coming back to it again. She hoped that my father and I were going to make up and never come to the conclusion of me moving out, but now things turned out differently, I didn’t know how to tell her. I wanted to get my life straight first before I could be able to tell her. I didn’t want her worrying about me when she w
DAX'S POVI was pacing the clinic corridor up and down, my mind racing and not knowing what to do. It scared me to my core that Lana had to be admitted to the ICU. The very thought of her not making it terrified me. I felt so helpless and didn't know what to do to help her, except to wait for the doctor who was taking care of her. As my mind raced and the walls started to feel thin around me, a call came through in my phone. I quickly reached for it in my pocket and picked it up. "Yes?" "Boss, she's been screaming since morning. What do I do with her?" James asked on the line. I totally forgot that I held Sasha hostage and didn't get back to deal with her after assigning James to keep an eye on her. The situation with Lana couldn't allow me to leave her and take care of business when I didn't even know that she was going to wake up or not. I needed to be here until she woke up. She had to see me when she had gained her consciousness. "Distract her, James, do anything, please. I ca
