~Tie me up.~

Xavier POV:

I stood at the balcony of my room. A soft and gentle breeze was blowing and it made the weather cold. Since, it was Autumn the crisp leaves were falling with the breeze.

I haven't seen Arcane lately although we go to the same school and live under the same roof. I go to school early because of the match that I have next weekend while she comes home late at night. I have a feeling that she is trying to avoid me on purpose.

Her thoughts were clouding my mind but upon seeing her walk with those weak and lethargic steps, those clouds scattered instantly and without thinking through, I rushed downstairs and went to the kitchen. My guts were saying that she will come here for dinner.

Soon, the main door opened and I focused onto her footsteps. I poured myself a glass of water and put it in between my lips. 'Don't make it obvious.' I told myself.

My instincts were right. She really came to the kitchen. Arcane was still wearing the uniform of the cafe where sh

    ~Spread your legs.~ Arcane POV: Today is the wedding day. My Mom is going to be Melissa Jones from now onwards. I half-heartedly slipped inside the dress which I got for the wedding. It's not that I am not happy for her but nothing intrigues me anymore. I have lost interest in everything. Currently we were in a hotel room and a makeup artist was giving Mom a makeover and I watched them quietly. "Arc." Mom looked at me through the mirror our eyes met. I bit my lip and sighed internally. She extended her hand for me and I couldn't be rude with her in the presence of outsiders. I held her hand and she gave mine a gentle squeeze. "I am sorry. You know that I did not mean any of that. I lost my temper." She apologized. She has been trying to say that for over a week now but I avoided her because I was not ready to forgive her soon. "You are the best thing that has happened to me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have survived this." She confessed. I blinked my unshed tears and di

    ~Sit on my face.~ Arcane POV: Vincent asked me to come to the living room. He wanted to talk about something. I adjusted my black hoodie and went there. Mom, Vincent and even Xavier were there. Xavier does not speak much but you can find him in every family meeting. Mom and Vincent were sitting on the center sofa as Xavier was on their left side. I quietly took a seat on the right side and waited for them to speak. "Arcane, dear me and your Mom wanted to ask your opinion on something." Vincent carefully asked and I was forced to look at him. "Yes?" "Actually, I wanted to put you into my family register. I wanted to know your opinion on it." He explained. For a few minutes, I didn't have any idea what he was saying. But then, Ashley's words flashed through my head. 'Remember that you are Arcane Jones now, not Arcane Miller.' My hands trembled. Am I even going to lose my name now? I clenched the hem of my hoodie tightly and glanced at Mom who was waiting for my response. "Wha

    ~Come with me.~Xavier POV:'Will you fu*k me?' Her words echoed in my mind and my heart raced at an unmeasurable pace. I fell on my bed and put my hand on my chest to calm the beating lump of flesh. "Oh, dear. Only if you know how much I want to do that." I whispered and closed my eyes. The moment I laid my eyes on her, my mind was filled with such thoughts. A new fantasy grows inside me every time and this is making my life harder. Moreover, I did not expect her to harbour such thoughts. She looks so innocent and adorable that for a second I was thrown off upon hearing the word 'fu*k' from her pretty lips. I smirked. I know that kind. They look all cute from the outside but they are the worst when it comes to sexual desires. I groaned and hid my face in the pillow. At what time I drifted to sleep, I have no idea. ______In the morning, I went to the dining area to eat something. However, I wanted to see her too but to my disappointment, she was nowhere to be seen. "Where is Arc

    ~What a vixen you are.~Xavier POV:Arcane has been avoiding me for days now. I came home at night and found Melissa in the living room. "Hi." I pursed my lips as I greeted her."Oh, hi." She was surprised. "Is everything fine?" I asked her. Actually I like her. Maybe because we never had a woman at our place, I feel different when I am around her. Our house has started to feel like a home. Except the fact that I cannot accept Arcane as my sister. "Yeah." She smiled, "You are going to your room?" "Yes." I said and noticed the nervousness on her face. "Okay,great. Can you ask Arcane to come and see me in my room? I need to talk to her about something." She apologetically asked for a favor. "Yeah, no worries." I get why Melissa and Arcane are always walking on eggshells around me. Well, I get Arcane now but Melissa.... I have a feeling that she is hiding something huge from me. I climbed the stairs and stood in front of her door. never came to her room before. So, at the thought o

    ~You are precisely what I wanted~Arcane POV:I did not expect to be caught by Xavier. I hated myself for being so careless. How could I ignore the probability that my darkest secret won't come to light even though we are living under the same roof? I am such an idiot. So, I had no other choice but to admit that I liked him. Surely, my life at Jones is going to be as awkward as sh*t. When I went to see Mom, she was already sleeping. "Is there something wrong, Arcane?" Vincent asked me. "No, I came to see Mom but she is sleeping. I will talk to her some other time." I smiled at him and came back to my room. I tossed and turned the whole night. I was so embarrassed that Xavier saw that and I don't know how I am going to face him again. Next morning; I hurriedly changed my clothes and tried to rush out of the house but Mom called me from behind. "Why are you in such a hurry? At least eat something before leaving."My lips pursed into a thin line. I had no choice but to join them at

    ~I want to taste you again. Like a sin.~Arcane POV:I woke up because of the continuously ringing phone. Since it was the weekend, I planned on sleeping in today, but the caller had other plans for me. I groaned when I saw 'Abby' flashing on the screen. "Hello." I received her call half sleepy. "Don't tell me you are still in bed?" She must have guessed from my hoarse voice. I took the phone off my ear and glanced at the time, it was 9am. "Get up right this instant and I want you at the bus stop exactly in 10 minutes." She ordered. "Did you forget? We were supposed to watch a match today." "Oh yeah." I really forgot it. "Okay, let me get ready." I said to her and hung up. When she said that she would drag me to the venue, she did not mean it metaphorically. Because Abby does not know about this place and I promised her that I will tell her when it will be the right time, so she did not ask me again. Else, she would be jumping around my room now. I dragged myself out of the bed a

He glanced at me and smirked after doing a celebration with his teammates. My eyes widened. "Blink. Your eyes are going to pop out of their sockets." Abby shouted from beside me, I was still dazed. I have been noticing for a while that whenever he scores, he looks at me. I bit my lip and the hot and intense stares targeted me again. I looked around and found Ashley. She was glaring at me with those murderous eyes from the front row. "Oh God." I whimpered. She must have seen him passing stares at me. It's him who did that, she does not have to look at me with those deadly eyes.I sighed speec

"We... dated," I began, my voice steady but tinged with a vulnerability I couldn't hide. Her eyes widened in surprise, a gasp escaping her lips. "You and Xavier? Seriously?" I nodded, a small smile playing on my lips. "Yeah. It was back in high school." Maya's excitement was palpable, her teasing grin spreading from ear to ear. "Oh my god! Why didn't you ever tell me?"

The words seemed to taunt me, each letter a reminder of the chaos that had unfolded. My heart hammered against my ribs, a frantic rhythm matching the whirlwind of thoughts in my head.When I saw the image of Xavier, his face contorted in anger, it was like a punch to the gut.

You better prepare yourself to bulk up.""I am focusing on my muscles, Dad. I cannot bulk up. It will be hard for me to play on the ice."

    ~Pretty please.~Arcane POV: The room felt different, like a chapter closing. Tomorrow, I'd be on a plane, leaving this place behind. I couldn't predict when I'd return, and it certainly wouldn't be anytime soon. My gaze swept across the room, each corner holding a memory. Here was where Xavier and I shared that kiss, a sweet moment in time. There, he lounged on my bed, playfully teasing me. And it was this very room where he saved me from my darkest moments, bringing me back from the edge. Tears threatened, but I blinked them away, resolute. I zipped up my suitcase, sealing in the fragments of the past. The room stood still, a silent witness to a part of my life that was coming to an end.

And then there was Xavier, a presence that still lingered in the recesses of my thoughts, despite the silence that had settled between us. As I watched my classmates buzz with anticipation, their excitement mingling with nervous energy, I couldn't help but feel a sense of detachment. It was as though I was moving through the motions, the weight of the past still clinging to me. The ceremony itself was a blur of gowns and caps, a sea of faces that seemed to meld together.
