CHAPTER 25: -
I slammed the door shut, making my way back to my bed. It's the first time in my life that I am feeling alone when there are people around me to hold me in my fall.
I believe Xavier, but I don't want to hurt him. I fell face flat on the bed, and sleep enveloped me. I woke up with glass shattering noise and loud moans. Growing I rolled over in my blanket facing the ceiling. Cueesing in all the language I know, I facepalmed myself.
"Oh, hell no, not again."
That son of bastard is here with another girl, hell to do with it. Her moans are like a cow choking for air. They were loud and, to be honest, 'irritating.'
Ghhhhhhhh fun* it
"Shut up," I screamed, hoping to send them a message, but the sound became louder every second.
Fu*k that Bit*ch.
I slid out of bed, opened the door, and whimpered; my eyes contacted the light with the bedsheet in my hand like a defense shield. I made my way down but stoppe
Chapter 26"It's me, Cara Mia, no need to go all ninja right now, but seriously what are you doing here? And at this time? "I release a long breath when Xavier comes in full view."Xavier the hell?? You like to scare me or something," I yelled, to which he laughed. "No, Cara Mia it never came across me that my voice can scare someone to shit like that." He stepped out of the dark and darned his looks were like a Greek god under the moonlight, but they were Nothing compared to Alex. Darn, I mentally groaned at that. My brain sedulously needs a check-up."You never answered my question, sister-in-law.?Ahh, sh*t, I zoned out again."Ahhh what question was it again?. I'm sorry I was kinda distracted." I said, covering my face with my hair.Xavier gave me a flat look, but I could see him trying to hold his laugh at my not-so-cooperative brain even in low light. he cleared his throat. "It's one past midnight what are you doing here?"
Chapter 27:-Xavier gave me a piggyback ride back to the house because he felt guilty for the scrape on my knees. So as I am a little too lazy to walk, I let him do it. He carried me upstairs to my room and opened the door, I tried to get down, but he held me there, his grip now losing."No, Cara Mia, I need to clean your wound before it gets infected," He opened my joined bathroom and set me down on the sink. He went ahead and searched all the cupboards and found a first aid box from the bottom one."Now sit and hold my shoulder, "he asked, and I gave him a confused look. "Oh, Cara mia your innocence is so nice sometimes," he took my left hand and placed it on his shoulder. "Now when you feel pain, squeeze my shoulder ok?" I gave him a 'why the heck would I do that look' at that."It's going to hurt you," I asked in my kiddish tone."That's the point, Cara Mia, if you squeeze my shoulder, it will distract you from pain, and if I'm too harsh, I wil
Chapter 28I change out of the clothes or whatever is left of them. Alex has already discarded my shirt for his little show. And comb my hair. I need to do Something about his touch, my body reacts severely to it, and I wouldn't say I like it.Oh, come on! Who am I kidding? I like it very much. But I wish it was real love, not a fake show, for his friends.Now hold on!! What did I say? Oh, hell lord, I told the "L" word. I pulled out a bottle of Listerine and cleaned my mouth in the hope to rinse my thought. My stomach roared in hunger again, and even if I didn't want to go down, I had to. So after collecting every single ounce of energy I had, I forced my legs to go downstairs. The hall room and kitchen were a huge mess, alcohol lined up everywhere, cheers of Alex's friends could be heard from poolside. At this time, it did not look like that Alex was a CEO. It was like he was some reckless eighteen-year-old teenage boy, but who am I kidding? He is Voldemort in
Chapter 29Xavier pov _Aisling and I just came back from the walk near the fountain, where I saw Regan yesterday night, and the moment we entered the house, the smile on our faces went dry.Alex's friends came back from the poolside door, shutting it with a slam, and joined him on the couch."Dude, your wife is fun! Did you see how she was screaming,' no, don't do this, I don't know how to swim,' Jackson said and roared up laughing—clutching his stomach pretending to act like he was choking on air."Hi man, where have you been, We thought you went to mommy, Mr mommy boy" Simon came up to me, patting my back, but I ignored him. "hello, his lady love."
Chapter 30Regan pov: -I don't know where I am, but this place is beautiful. Is this the place all people go when they die.?It was a beautiful park; everything was white. Leaves on tree branches. Many butterflies flew past me, and one of them used me for her bypass resting station, taking her seat on my shoulder."Hi, little fellow. Do you know where I am? I mindlessly asked that butterfly. My dress is also white making me feel so light.I saw swings at the end of the path I was standing on, and someone was sitting on them too. She looked so similar to someone I know. I looked closer and gasped. How could it be!!"Mom, ???"
Chapter 31 Xavier made his way up the stairs, carrying me in his arms like I'm some precious ceramic statue, which might break if he let loose, but I'm in no mood to complain. He sat down on my bed and turned to me; his eyes lost the warm look. It was like you're looking at an iceberg frozen, not moving, melting slowly, but now showing the signs of the danger coming forth. "I'm going to send Aisling up to help you change" he was about to turn and leave me, and somehow, I knew he was going to confront Alex, but I was not ready to let go yet, So I grabbed his hand holding him back. "Stay. Please, just for a while, but stay" He stopped looking back at me. I saw pain unfold in his eyes as His gaze moved from my face to my hand, so
Chapter 32I met my mother, and her words were like a puzzle that I could solve but were not ready to admit what she wanted me to do.Even if I open my heart, will he? I don't think so! For all I know, he doesn't have one.After changing, I was still shivering, my body heat was growing, but it was all getting dizzy. So I laid down on the bed, hoping this stomping of my head would go away. But even after I closed my eyes, it was there, Like the beating of drums. So I opened them.As I didn't have the energy to stand and go out, I stayed there still shivering and listening to them shouting from a down stare. I closed my eyes again, and this time, darkness engulfed me.I can hear Xavier's voice fr
Chapter 33He mentioned her."......How could he??He knows what happened, and he used her to defend that girl.????Why?The memory of her started to play in my head. How she broke me made me feel love and then.Poof....... Gone...the girl I thought I loved.Vanessa........!Xavier knew this. He knows how much I'm not too fond of her thoughts. Those memories were like a plague to me now.I can still feel her perfume lingering in the air, her touch on my skin, and her laugh is haunting my brain. Ever
I can hear my men's screaming all around me. After a few minutes, the dirt cleared a bit. I ran towards the hole to find Vanessa gone.I turned to the other side, but she just was gone. I blinked my eyes."Alex what's going on?" I heard Paul's voice on my Bluetooth."Search the warehouse. She is gone. She is gone..." I screamed at the top of my lungs.Everything around me was chaos. My men were searching everywhere, but no one found a clue where she went.I saw Roman running toward me at lightning speed."Alex, it's for you" he handed me his cell phone with an unknown number. I picked it up and placed it on speaker."You think you had me in your trap Alexander, but just like always I'm far away from you, you said May Satan deliver you the same pain you deliver us, but honey I forget to mention. The Satan is my best friend." Her laugh killed me on the inside."May god bless you and your so-called wife Alex!!" The call disconnected, and I lost her location.I smashed the phone on the gr
EpilogueAlex POV: -Is it possible to feel death before you die? Is it?When she walked out, I felt the need to run behind her, but I had to stay. Her final words were ringing in my head, but I knew I had to do what I had to do to make her walk away. It wasn't her fault that she fell for me.It was mine. Little did she know I fell for her too. The most brutal discussion that I have to take is the one to let her go.Every day when I hurt her, it stabbed me too.God knows how we came to this place. The year was almost over, and if it weren't for the significant theft I faced, I wouldn't have to let her go. I did it for her. I let the girl I loved walk away with so much hate in her for me because I believe it's easy this way.The moment the front door closed, I waited.I waited till I knew she was far enough, and I hoped Paul had given her the car keys so she could get away fast.She thinks I don't see who Venessa was but my love ...she didn't know that I already know who the snake was.
I used to love this initially, but I don't know why and how much I deny I still love this man if it's all he wanted, so be it. For my child, I will walk away."That my husband means that you trusted the wrong bitch. What do you think your girlfriend is an angle or something! Think Alex!!! She walked away from you with your money before!! Then why would she come back? if she didn't want more?" I asked. A flick of realization of what I was saying crossed his eyes.Roman's phone started ringing, and he walked away, taking his call.Vanessa stepped toward Alex and placed her hand on his shoulder. She starts saying something to him."Hi, I'm here. Please speak louder because I can't hear you," I snapped.She looked up and back at Alex, gave me a Devi grin, and stepped back."It's none of your business!!'. Oh, legit, that pissed me off—none of my business.I stood up, pus
The moment Alex pushed me inside his car in 'All gentlemen way,' I knew the day was just getting started.I tucked myself in. Getting my seat belt on, I was choking with fear inside me. The look in his eye, His demeanor against me, his voice chilling cold, all this indicated something. I was scared.Not for me...Not for him...I was scared for the baby, A life that was inside me. I closed my eyes, not facing him, but I wanted to see his eyes. I feel like I'm seeing him for the last time. Even though I want to escape him, my heart still wants him.The tension inside the car was so thick I could slice it with a knife. I gulped the air. I breathe, trying to calm myself."Alex, where are we going? I asked. My voice didn't tremble, and I was grateful for that. His finger clenched around the staring wheels. They turn pale white, making the lather underneath crunch. He kept his eyes on the road without looking my way, not even a glance.A storm was rising on the horiz
I gave up and moved on to the next choir, and minutes after minutes, the list became small. After cooking, Mandy came to my help, and after two hours of working, our asses off the list of choirs were over.I fell onto the couch with a heavy sigh. I was exhausted, and my feet hurt bad. Mandy bought herself and me a cup of coffee and some cookies making me smile."Oh, why thank you, my lady," I said, pretending to speak in British are sent, but we all know I suck at it.The door to the room in which Roman was opened. He came out looking frustrated and equally aggravated.He left without saying a word to me, making me suspicious of his behavior. I let out a yawn and fell asleep on the couch within a few minutes of having some food in my belly.When I woke up, I heard heavy footsteps coming toward me. I glance up to find Alex standing in. Front of me. His face was red like hell boy or something.I sat up, but he grabbed my hand and pulled me out of th
"There is a list of things she wants you to do?" Now it was his eyes that were wide like a saucer.I gave him the 'you are kidding me look.'"What did you expect out of a devil spawn? I wasn't that shocked like you are Roman!!!" Did he think that women with a face like duck poop would let me be for one day? Off course not!!"Can I see it?" He asked, extending his hand out, requesting no denying his approach with his eyes. I don't want to give up soon, but what's the point! It's not like he would twist his wand and extend the already ginormous list.I pulled the list out of my pocket.Yeh, know girls *cough* BRA *cough*!!! It was embarrassing as I was in front of a guy who is also my hu
Oh, you got to be kidding me.!!!I kept repeating that in my head when I tried to make the log list of shits. I wanted to kill someone, but I couldn't. If only I could hurt that bitch in her face.I put the last dish down after wiping the water off it. My hands hurt so bad.Mandy was trying to help me as much as she could, but it's two people who only could do as much. I sigh in frustration."We won't be able to complete this on our own, Mandy," I said, sitting down on the floor Indian style."We need help. If only I could get some from my god," I huffed. Mandy pouted her face and then sat down next to me. Her face was red with sweat at the heat. I feel like b with itch whining like a five-year-old when she
"Why do you care so much?" She glared at Me, which I completely ignored. I was too fazed with the beautiful home my so-called husband was paying for. Indeed it was expensive. You can feel it. The place must be costing him a hell lot of money.I glanced back to Venessa, but she was gone. A few minutes later, she was back in the room with a girl behind her ordering her likes the boss."Mandy, she is your responsibility for today teach her what she needs to do throughout the day. I already gave you the list of things I want to be done so don't miss anything or you will be responsible for the consequences." She went on and on and on about her things and all when I zoned her out.My attention was repurchased when I saw two fingers snapping in front of my eyes.My focus was back on her snotty face.With a smirk, I asked, "Yes, madam?"Her face turns red. She knew I wouldn't listen to a word she will say, even if she complained about this to Alex,
She clears her throat, trying to catch Alex's eyes. He looked up just for a moment, and then his phone started ringing. With his lips pressed in line, he walked down the stairs.He pressed his phone to his ears. He was pinning Venessa and me where we were."Speak"-- the person online said something that twisted Alex's face in confusion and anger."I am on my way." Yeah, that's it. That is how long he speaks on the phone. If I measured it, that was no longer than five seconds. I wonder how much is his phone bills."He walked passed me to Venessa and pulled her close. He whispered something in her ears and then gave her a wet and loud kiss.Show off. I rolled my eyes at his actions.My stomach twisted at its sight, not because of pain but how cheap and genuinely disgusting it was.I clear my voice."Sir, I think madam I getting late for her day so maybe we should go!!!'. I emphasized the word 'Madam' and 'sir' on which Venessa smiled, but
