lThere was no way she was going to go without Xavier so she followed them on the journey back to the palace.Xavier was tied up, dragged to the throne room and dumped in front of the king.Khalil bowed when he stood before the king and Jade stood beside him.She couldn't believe she followed Khalil back to the palace.Khalil signaled her to bowed and she hesitantly did.She was used to people bowing to her instead, thanks to Xavier. So she felt weird when she bowed to show respect.And aside from that, she never really think it was necessary to bow just to greet a royal personality.Jade didn't like the way the king looked at her.“I must say, Khalil, you made me proud today.” Laughter roared out of the king. “For capturing this animal, you will get a huge reward. Weldone.”" Thank you, your highness.”“And who's your beautiful friend?” The king who sat on his magnificent throne asked. “She is American. She doesn't belong, here dressed like that." He found it offensive that she had
Jade paced around the room. How on earth was she suppose to freshen up when her husband was locked up to be killed? Khalil sounded ridiculous when he brought her to this goddamn room. There was a knock on the door and Khalil walked in. “You still haven't taken your bath?” He looked surprised. “Do you need help? I can send in some servant girls. Everything you need is here…” He walked to the dishes placed on the huge table. “You haven't eaten either.” “How do you expect me to be calm when your father wants to kill him?!” Jade was irritated. “You need to think straight, Jade. My father is a very ruthless king so please, do as I say.” He repeated. “I need you to trust me.” “I will do whatever I have to do to get my husband out of here, alive! And whosoever that attempts to get in my way, I won't hesitate to kill the person.” She threatened. Khalil paused to look at her. “You sound just like him,” He shook his head. “Do you even know who got married to?” “A very ruthless Mafia Lo
Khalil locked the door behind him when he entered Jade's room in the palace.She immediately stood from the bed. “What took you so long?" “My father gave orders for you to be closely watched and I asked him if you could visit Xavier. He accepted but just this one time." Jade sighed with relief. “What's the plan? How will we get him out?" Khalil hesitated.“Tell me." She moved closer to him." I'm willing to help you but I have a condition.” Khalil whispered." Condition?” Jade stared at him with disbelief. " You're just like your father. Y’all always want something in return.” She painfully shook her head." No, listen to me. I'm not like that.” He pulled her closer to him. " I'm not asking you to marry me or do anything for me. I need Xavier's help. If he agrees with my condition, I'll help you both out.”Jade thought for a while. " Then only him can accept. I can't possibly help you with that." “You can convince him. I'd never imagine the Mafia Lord would get married, ever. But
Jade and Xavier stood before a store in a market as she bought some few things.They hurriedly followed the instructions given by Khalil and soon enough, they arrived at a river and got into a boat reserved especially for them.They have been on the run for two days now.Two days ago, Khalil helped them escape from the palace and the king got furious.Khalil was in charge of finding them so he stayed back to mislead his men and give them enough time to run as far as possible.The last time she saw her friend was yesterday when he gave her everything she needed and they parted for good.“Don't worry, I'll row." Jade said to him when he picked the paddles.She hasn't treated his wound for some days now and it's going to be a miracle if it wasn't already infected.Xavier ignored her and paddled.Soon enough, it got dark and they got to their next stop where Khalil kept tents for them and a burnt fire.He was just the best.Jade brought out food and blankets from the bag she came along wi
Jade sat in the boat as far from Xavier as possible as she paddled the boat.She felt a little guilt because she didn't offer him any food in the morning and he didn't ask for any.He also didn't sleep in the tent but in the cold.She turned to look at him and noticed how pale he was turning.His purplish lips looked dry and color drained from them as well.The anger he installed in her last night was still fresh in her soul so she refused to talk to him.They camped out again by the river when night consumed the earth once more.And this time, he sleep in the tent.Jade woke up in the middle of the night when she heard funny noises which turned out to be Xavier's uneven breaths.She felt his temperature and it was too high.“Xavier!" She gently shook him.He was visibly shivering on the inside.Jade quickly checked his wound. ‘It is infected’She quickly sat up, alarmed. “Can you hear me?" No response. Xavier wasn't replying her.What was she to do at this time of the night? They'r
Xavier shifted a little in the bed he was in. He smelled fishy and salty air around him when he drew in a breath. Gently opening his eyes, he looked around. It was a very small room that consists of a little table and the bed he was in. How did he end up here? Who brought him here and why was there? Questions kept running through his mind but then, the door opened and he quickly partially shut his eyes. Jade walked in with a bowl of water and a piece of cloth. Xavier secretly watched her as she sat beside him and soaked the cloth in water. ‘What is she doing?’ He asked himself. She pressed the cloth to his forehead and repeated on his face and neck. He completely forget he was injured. He could still feel the pain in his chest but it wasn't as bad as before. That was when he remembered what happened in Iraq and how they escaped but then, their boat sank in a river and the last thing he remembered was Jade, seriously crying as her tears dropped on his face while she said s
Jade loudly giggled as Xavier lifted her to his shoulder.“What are you doing!?” She laughed. “Someone may see.”“No one is here.” He tickled her some some.“Xavier! Stop!” He walked to the room and dropped her on the bed.Two days, he'd only been awake for two days and didn't hesitate to show his naughty and horny side.“Ibrahim and his brother went for Salah while their parents are in the market. I'm pretty sure we are on the clear.” He looked down at her.She had herself to be blamed because it all started when she joined him in the shower but Xavier decided to switch things up when he saw her naked.She still couldn't believe he carried her all the way from the shower to the room, naked!Jade silently admired his sexy body.He lifted her foot to his mouth and placed tiny kisses on her toes. The sensation traveled down her leg.Xavier took his time to place light kisses as he found his way to her body. He kissed his way to her thighs, placed another one on her waist just above her
*Flashback*(Jade's POV)After we made love for the very first time, I refused to go back home although Justin wanted to take me back countlessly.I just didn't want to leave him because I fear that I might lose him the moment I took my eyes off him but he always assured me I won't lose him.Justin became like the skin on my body. Like the blood that flowed in my veins. Like every fibre that connects every cell in my body.“Jade?" I heard his voice say my name in a very lazy tone. “I'm not in the mood to seek you today, again." I love it when I hide from him and he has to look for me.It's really hard to hide in his house because he knows it too well so I learned a new way to never get caught.Moving slowly, I crept under the only table in the living room when I heard his footsteps getting closer.“C’mon, Jade. I just wanna cuddle, it's cold out here." He sighed and I heard him go back to the room and I used that chance to quickly dash out of the house.He probably went in to get a s
