Xavier's Obsession Chapter 10: My Alleged Fiance.
Xavier.“You're back?” The look of surprise on Carla's face is hard to miss as I step out of the elevator, arriving on the fifth floor where my office is located. Another thing that's hard to miss? Her wrinkled blouse and smudged lipstick. And not to mention the blue-eyed idiot that's currently smirking at me. Ethan looks pleased with himself as he fixes his hair leisurely. He knew I was back and he definitely knew I would come to the office this morning. I wonder how long they've been at it.“My office,” I say, looking directly at him as I speak. He shrugs and makes his way into my office, without waiting for me. I glance at Carla who looks mortified. She's shaking as she wrings her hands together, nervously. “I'm sorry, Xavier—”“That would be Mr. Kingston to you from now on, Carla.”Her eyes shoot up in surprise, and maybe… hurt? I don't have it in me to give a fuck about her feelings, so I continue.“And the next time you feel like making out with my best friend or anyone for

Audrey.It's noon when I wake up on the couch. I sit up and stretch, noticing that the TV is still on. I make a mental note to inform Xavier about the woman that came to see him today. That would be when he gets back though. I didn't let her in, nor did I talk to her. It took quite a while before she left, as she was really convinced that Xavier was home. But then, could I blame her? I had left the TV on when I went to take a shower and the sound of the TV was what convinced her that Xavier was home. As she persisted in ringing the doorbell, I had made myself comfortable on the couch, my heart thrumming in my chest as I watched the news channel that was on. That was how I fell asleep. So far, there's been no mention of me on the news. And I don't know if I should be relieved or scared. I turn off the TV, standing up from the couch as a yawn escapes from my mouth. I'm painfully bored and I decide to do some stretching in my bedroom. It's during the process of stretching that I n

Audrey Watson. “A shot of whiskey, please,” I hear a voice say behind me as I clean the shelves. I'm startled a bit, because I didn't hear anyone come in. It has been a slow night if I can even call it that. The Golden Bar where I work is normally the most popular bar in Jefferson—a small town in Texas—where the old men sit to wind down after a long day at work. But lately, our customers have been dwindling until at last, we barely get a customer per night. Which is why I'm surprised when I turn around and am greeted with the sight of a young man. He's literally the most beautiful man I've ever seen, which is saying a lot because I don't easily notice men. I must have been staring for a while because he snaps at me in an impatient tone, “Do you usually scare your customers away with those deadly eyes of yours, or am I just special?” I immediately turn back to the shelf to get a bottle of whiskey and a shot glass, breathing deeply to calm myself down before facing him again. I

Xavier Kingston. My jaw aches as I cock my eyebrow while waiting for the girl's reply. From her expression, she seems stunned but she manages to nod. Then I turn to face the fool that punched me in the face. I release his hand and grab him by the neck, turning around to slam his back onto the counter. “What do you think you're doing? Who do you think you are?” He asks, his face red from the pressure of my hand on his neck. I chuckle as I apply more pressure. “No, Brandon,” I spit his name out, “who do you think you are?” I'm a little tipsy from the whiskey, but the buzz from the alcohol makes me want to squeeze his neck until his eyes pop. Won't be too long now, I think. Judging from the look on his face, it seems like he's struggling to stay conscious. A hand on my forearm makes me turn my head and I see the bar girl pleading with her eyes. “Please, just let him go,” she begs. I stare at her like she's speaking another language. “Are you being serious right

*Trigger warning: Abuse/Violence* Audrey. I'm still looking at the stranger's retreating figure when Brandon speaks. “We're done for the night. Close up the bar and come meet me in my office.” My heart hammers in my throat as he leaves, still massaging his neck. There'll be hell to pay tonight. I let out a shaky breath as I start wiping down the counter. I pick up the hundred dollar bill and pocket it. Keep the change, he said. Well, that's a whole lot of change I'll be keeping. My thoughts stray to him. He was so angry and as much as it felt good to have someone defend me, I knew Brandon would take it out on me when he leaves. That was why I stopped him. And what did he mean by, “you’re pathetic, just like her”? Like who? I shake my head to dispel the thoughts. After cleaning the counter, I go to the back of the building to take the trash out. Glancing at the parking lot, I'm disappointed when his car is nowhere to be seen. I guess it's too much for me to hope

Xavier. It's a bright and chirpy morning when I finally stir awake. I groan in discomfort as light filters in through the window, and my hammering head makes me feel shitty. The call with my therapist went well, I think—and I had to use my meds before going back to sleep after the call. I guess I was too exhausted from the journey, and that was why I forgot to use my meds before falling asleep the first time. Hence, the dreadful nightmare. My stomach growls, reminding me that I haven't eaten anything apart from the burger I had eaten yesterday afternoon, while on the road. Dragging my tired body off the bed, I head to the shower. A few minutes later, I'm in my Porsche heading towards the town. There should be a nice breakfast diner around. It's been three years since I last came here and things have really changed. The breakfast diner I visited then has been turned into a club. I spot the Golden Bar on my way and my mind wanders to the bartender I met with yesterday. I sh

Audrey. The drive becomes silent as I direct the stranger to Big Ben’s Diner. I keep sneaking glances at his face and my heart rate increases every time. The atmosphere in the car is tense and I know I'm the reason for that. But when he said, “...striking gray eyes,” all I could think of was Brandon slamming my head on his desk last night and growling, “...those gray eyes of yours were a problem…” After a while, I decide to break the ice. “You never told me your name.” “Well, you never asked. It's Xavier.” I nod as I turn my gaze back to the road. Xavier. It fits him. *** “What should I get for you?” My attention shifts to Xavier as he unstraps his seat belt and I realize we're at the diner already. “I'll take blueberry muffins, thank you,” I reply quietly. “And drink?” “Just water.” Then I remove the hundred dollar bill that has been stashed in my pocket since yesterday and extend it to him. He appears insulted and he scoffs as he gets out of the car and slams the

Audrey. “Are you okay?” I didn't realize Xavier had come down from the car until I hear his voice behind me. I nod and turn to face him, annoyed when I see the look of concern on his face. He goes to get the bottle of water he had bought earlier and opens it, extending it to me. Rinsing my mouth, I avoid eye contact with him. “Are you upset with me?” He asks. “Does it matter?” I bite back angrily, still not looking at him. “You're leaving anyway.” He doesn't speak after that. Once I'm sure my mouth is clean, I hand the bottle back to him and make my way to the passenger seat to grab my box of muffins. As I walk towards the Golden Bar, I stop. “Well, I guess this is goodbye.” Not waiting for a reply, I continue walking. He doesn't try to stop me and that hurts a lot. I can feel tears in my eyes but I don't let them fall and I don't turn back. I keep walking until I disappear around the back of the building, using the small door to slip into the bar. It isn't until I make

Xavier's Obsession Chapter 9: You Can Run But You're Still My Heir.
Xavier.Today is probably the worst day of my life, and it's just starting. First, I wake up with a throbbing headache and while in the shower, I almost slip on the tiles. It happens all of a sudden that my heart actually skips a beat. That's definitely a bad omen and for a moment, I think of skipping the meeting I have with Melrose. But then, I can't. My contract with them means so much to me. So I take some Advil and hurry to the meeting down at Kingston Corporations. Again, I don't understand why Melrose will rather meet at my father's company. But I'm about to find out.I know the structure of the company like the back of my hand. After all, I was supposed to run it and I've been training for the position of the CEO in the company before falling out with my father. As I exit the elevator, I stride purposefully to the office of the CEO. Although my father is retired, I know he'll come in today and probably give my younger brother a break, just so he can play out his schemes.I'
Xavier's Obsession Chapter 8: Should I Open The Door Or Not?
Audrey.Xavier looks so delicious—looking up at me with those green eyes that seem to break through my defenses—as he asks the question. And that seems to snap me out of my daze and back to reality.I had allowed the wine to get into my head, although that's not the entire reason. At that moment, I wanted to know how it feels to be eaten out. I needed to know how it feels when someone makes my pleasure their priority. And Xavier seems like the kind of person who would know what to do. I can see his desire to make me feel worshipped, even now. In fact, it almost seems like pleasuring me turns him on.But I know I can't allow myself to indulge in this tonight. Or ever. If I do, then tonight, he'll be pleasuring me orally. Tomorrow, he'll want me naked. I can't let him see my scars. I can't bear the look of disgust that'll be on his face.Besides, as long as Brandon is still out there, I can't get attached to Xavier. He'll die when Brandon comes for me and it'll be better to watch him d
Xavier's Obsession Chapter 7: Wine Plus Whiskey Equals…
Xavier. Thirty minutes into the drive and Audrey is asleep. I glance at her every now and then, especially when I hit a bump but she's fast asleep. There's a peaceful expression on her face and I draw in a deep breath when I realize that I've never seen her with that expression before. She's either guarded, hurt or scared. Oh, I've seen her angry too–that was the expression on her face before she finally managed to fall asleep. I turn my attention back to the road and my thought strays to the phone call I received earlier, from my father. He always makes me angry. Even now, my hands clench on the steering wheel as I think of him. He had gotten his hands on Melrose Apparels—the overseas company I purchase my fabrics from. Custom-made fabrics, if I may add. God only knows why he still bothers with business when he has clearly retired and left the company to Conrad, my younger brother. But somehow, he managed to strike a deal with the CEO of Melrose Apparels and he's now call
