Chapter 61

Isabella's POVIf you think I slept after Xander just told me that he is in love with me, then you are very mistaken. Sleep became a stranger to me, and even though I tried my best to close my eyes, begging for the darkness to take me, it was just impossible because all I could hear was Xander's voice saying those words to me.'' Come on Isabella, put yourself together, this might be a drunken mistake. I am sure he didn't mean any of what he was saying,'' I said to myself, but the voices in my head just laughed at me.'' Oh Isabella, stop deserving yourself, you know very well that it is only in a drunken state that a man speaks the truth,'' my subconscious taunted me with its words.'' You know nothing,'' I scolded the voices in my head as I continued to force myself to sleep, but I couldn't, so I stayed awake until the sun rose in the sky.Xander's words still hunted my very being, as I tried to make sense of it all, I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that the most danger

Chapter 62

Isabella POV '' Why so formal with me,'' Manny smirked, asking. '' You need to relax. I am not your boss, okay,'' Manny let out and I found myself smiling. '' What do you want Manny,'' I asked and he rolled his eyes. '' Wouldn't you allow me inside first? It is bad manners to keep a guest waiting like this,'' Manny let out. '' Fine come on it,'' I said, ushering Manny into my room. '' Now that you are here, what do you want, Manny?'' I asked and Manny smirked. '' Lovely room. I am sure the Draco, specifically, designed it just for his marked woman.'' Manny let out and I just knew he was teasing me right now. So, with

Chapter 63

Isabella's POV  Manny and I drove in complete silence, so I just drifted my focus to the window as I began to count the trees, houses, and people that passed by.  ''Okay, are you not going to say a word to me,'' Manny let out after a few minutes.  '' I don't do small talk,'' I said, and Manny scoffed.  '' Humour me, Just say something because this silence is killing me,'' Manny let out, but I still didn't say a word to him, because honestly, I didn't know what to say.  '' Okay, tell me about yourself, Isabella,'' Manny let out as he threw a glance or two in my direction.  '

Chapter 64

Isabella's POV  I froze in shock as it felt like I couldn't breathe because of the sight of him. Xander was in the fighting ring preparing to take on a heavy-bodied man who was much bigger than him, with muscles everywhere I could think of, and also looked so scary. I didn't understand what was going on and I wondered if Manny was seeing what I was seeing as well.  '' Manny, are you seeing this, or are my eyes deceiving me,'' I asked.  '' Yeah, it is Draco quite alright,'' Manny let out as if he was not surprised to see him there.  '' Did you know about this, did you know he was going to be here,'' I asked, as my heart raced out of control and I didn't know why.

Chapter 65

Isabella's POV When Manny walked up to us, the look in Xander's eyes could definitely kill a horse. I don't know what was going on in Xander's mind but I was eager to know, because he didn't look pleased that Manny was here with me. '' Oh hi Draco, I didn't know that she was with you,'' Manny let out with respect laced in his voice, but Xander didn't respond. He just continued to look at Manny as if he was going to kill him at any moment. Manny shifted his weight nervously from one leg to the other, as his gaze drifted from Xander, then back to me. '' How could you bring her to a place like this,'' Xander let out and Manny looked so confused. '' Don't you know that it is not safe here for her?'' Xander

Chapter 66

 Isabella's POV   Do you remember how I complicated my life by kissing Manny yesterday? Yes, I have been wallowing in self-misery since then. I didn't leave my room because I didn't have the guts to face him after what I did. Mary, as always, came to my room, but she didn't even ask me why I chose not to leave my room. Maybe she was already used to me running away from things with the hopes that they would go away and fix themselves. So there, with no one pushing me to leave my room, I was in here for another 3 days. Thank god for Mary, who always remembered to bring me food, and Mia, whose calls always kept me company. So, in my 3 days of solitude, I engrossed myself in work, doing accounting, hoping that would take my mind off what my life had slowly become. But as the numbers kept on coming in, the more dis

Chapter 67

 Isabella's POV  I shivered as I tried to hold onto Manny's gaze, but it was just impossible because I stupidly went to kiss him and totally complicated our relationship. So now that I am standing so close to him, I am shivering like a little schoolgirl not even knowing what to say. ” I am not avoiding you," I whispered and Manny rolled his eyes. “ Well, 3 days hiding in your room is totally saying a different thing to me," Manny let out with a smirk on his face. “ Fine you are. Right, I am avoiding you," I stated as I squared my shoulders, looking up at him. “ Ouch, that hurts my feelings, but why does it seem like it has anything to do with the fact that you kissed me," Manny said. “ Well, as I recall, you kissed me back, and anyway, that kiss was a drunken mistake, an

Chapter 68

Xander's POVI hadn't seen Bella since she gave me the news that someone was stealing from me. She was like an angel, she appeared, and then she disappeared for a while.And even though we live in the same house, we were like strangers to each other.You know I willed myself every day not to go to her room, where she hides every day, just to see her, but I kept on telling myself that this was what she wanted, and seeing me would just make it worse.So even though I was dying to see her, to kiss those lips of hers again, and feel her skin under my touch once again, I knew I just couldn't.Getting up from my bed, I allowed my thoughts to run wild. I had a lot going on in my mind, but I can not let any of that bother me now, because Xavier was coming back today. Yeah, it is already 2 days, and he said he was coming back today.So I have to think about that and that alone, because I have to get to the root of who was stealing from me.

Chapter 69

Xander's POVI looked at my cousin, waiting for him to answer my questions, but he just looked at me, not saying a word to me.And his silence was slowly getting on my nerves, as I kept on asking myself if Xavier was hiding something from me.'' Come on son, you don't think your cousin, your right-hand man, would steal from you,'' My father said, shaking his head.'' I don't know father, it is left to Xavier to prove me wrong,'' I let out as I continued to stare at Xavier.Xavier was quiet for a while and still didn't know why, and honestly, I couldn't take it anymore.'' What is this Xavier, why are you not saying anything,'' I yelled.'' What do you want me to say, when you have already made up your mind that I am stealing from you,'' Xavier let out.'' So you are not going to say anything to defend yourself, Xavier,'' I said.'' What can I say in my defense, when my cousin, my own family, has

Chapter 70

Xander's POV Days had passed by since the talk I had with my father, and ever since then, his words have remained in my mind, like an initial carved into a tree. His words were all I could hear when working when sleeping and even in my dreams, his words were everywhere in my mind. '' Love is not for people like us'' His words had me so worried, making me wonder if my father was right, wondering if I was so damaged and beyond repair, and no one would ever love me. Wondering if Bella could ever love a damaged man like me and whether she was better off without me, and I should not be hoping for something that would never happen. Breathing out heavily, my Dad's words continued to hover around in my mind, as I tried to focus on work again because that was all I did nowadays. I try to focus on work just to get my mind off things. Sometimes it works, but sometimes my mind just wande
