Iris's POVBack then, when Xander was Alexander Russo, my sister's fiance and I started falling for him, I knew there was no future for him and me, I kept no hope for any of us.I just lived the moment, those small gestures that fluttered my heart, like a new flower blooming.I cherished those moments and emotions, like, how he would gaze at me longingly when he thought no one is looking at him. The haze his mere presence used to put me in. It was all that I used to live for. How he would clench his jaw and fist his palms, due to anger, when any male would try coming near to me.We were not together then, but still, his eyes claimed me.I was claimed by hisEyesConcernAngerJealousyPossessive nessWarmthCareLove And lastlyDevotion.We declared our love, not when the three magical words were uttered but, it was when he took my drunk self to his condo and hugged me under the shining moon, on his balcony.That moment I can never forget. It was divine as if our scattered letters
It's not like I don't know, that I am fucked up. Because I am.I won't be offended if you call me Psycho. Hell, I know I am crazy. I am damaged beyond repair.But do I hate myself?No. This is me and will always be like this. I get what I want.And this time also, I will get what I want.Iris Brooke.My princess.Mine.I have waited long, but now it's time she becomes mine.And I bet this time I won't miss the aim. Smirking, I look around the airport waiting for the woman, who helped me escape the hell hole called prison and bring me here, close to my princess.Though I could have reached her sooner, fucking Jacob Sterling is hell-bent on searching for me. Because of him, I had to keep myself away, from my princess.But now no more waiting.Tapping my feet, I was waiting for the woman of the hour to arrive, and here she comes, wearing a classy off-shoulder red dress.After picking me up from the airport, she left me at a motel. Telling me she is doing work to bring me closer to my
"Xander...xan...der..." "Mmm..." He hummed, placing shivering kisses all over my neck. I rolled my eyes, as he has become a lot too affectionate towards me. "St..op." How the hell am I supposed to protest, when he is awarding me with so much pleasure and happiness? I can not be fussy when I am getting, what I have been wishing for these last four years. "No." Like a kid, who is asked to cut short his play and study, Xander denies my request. His hands trailing lower from my neck, reaching my melons, he pinches my already hard nipples. He hummed as his lips skimmed further down my neck to collar bone. "Damn!!! I want to have you now." His thick voice, pooling with desire, send shivers of want all over my body." Hmm. " I hummed in pleasure. His hands are just like his, expert, as I don't even know when he unbuttoned my shirt, and now his warm hand is roaming all over my skin. Butterflies and tingles, are shuddering me, whereas the wetness between my thighs, and my lower swollen
NervousUneasyAnxiousScaredImpatientAll these are the words that perfectly describe, the storm of emotions swirling inside my heart.A feeling that till now was foreign to Alexander Russo. Never in my existence, until now, have I thought I will be all these things.I have never even, felt like this when I confessed to Iris that I love her.Fuck! Confessing to her was easier than this.And why won't it would be, after this very moment, this very person will decide my fate, not Iris?Because this moment will decide if my dreams will come true or if they will only be dreams. So yeah, here I am, with my fingers crossed, hoping for the day to go well.." Mr. Russo. Don't worry you will be fine." Says Blair smiling, stepping aside to let me in. "Yeah, I am hoping for the same," I reply looking around, after entering."Xan is in his room. Getting ready." She informs. I nodded taking a seat on the couch. Blair sitting in front of me, fidgeting with her finger. I don't know why, but
Packing the last of my jewelry boxes, I wave my friends off as I see them leaving in their cars. It's 6 pm, time for me to close the shop. Hence once I am sure that I have packed everything and that everything is stacked perfectly, I local my shoo and walk towards my car. Reaching my car, I grabbed my key from my purse, and just when I was about to open the door, I got startled and dropped the key in the process, as I felt a hand placed on my shoulder. With my heart beating furiously, I turned, prepared with a few curses on the tip of my tongue but the moment I saw who it was, I swallowed all those curses. " Jacob." surprised but happy, I threw myself in his arms. " what a surprise." " Hey, Blair. How are you?" he asked as we pull away from the hug. " I am good," I say smiling, seeing his node with a simple. After things went down, I and Iris decide it was best we leave and go to London. I was more into the idea because people there hated me. They knew the crimes I co
"Damn it!!! Who the hell kept all those files in the upper cabinet?"I muttered frustrated. Trying to reach my hands to the red file, kept in the upper cabinet. I mean I know it's Xander's office, which means, either I or Xander would have kept this here.And 80% it's me. I am sure. Sometimes I think I put myself more in trouble than anyone. I put the files there because I knew it would be no trouble for Xander to reach them. But damn it, I am too short to reach the upper cabinet.Believe me, in times like this, I envy Ava, that she got the height of Dad, whereas I, got none of theirs.Giving up. I sighed. Knowing it's not my cup of tea. But I need the file.Whining, inside, I started looking around for something that can help, and my eyes landed on Xander's leather black chair.Bingo!! Happy, I quickly dragged it near the cabinet. Climbing, I started looking for Carson's file. Engrossed in my work, I almost forget where I am standing. Hence, I got utterly surprised, by the
"Iris!!!" Hearing Blair shout, I ran out of the kitchen, only to stop and then burst out in fits of laughter. Little Kyle has peed on her.And he was laughing, seeing his mom pout so cutely."Little devil. I just changed his diapers." She whines. Blair is new to motherhood, we both are. But one thing I can tell she handles her baby better than me. The reason she gave, was that she looked after her sister. The very same sister, because of whom, she wanted to avenge me.Somewhere or the other I blame myself for what happened to her sister, it's because of me, Josh killed her. This knowledge fills me up with a lot of guilt. Maybe that's why I didn't dwell much on thoughts when I had to decide, whether I want to giver her a second chance or not. "You, deliberately troubling mommy." I pinched Kyle's cheeks, while he laid naked on the bed, and he holds my finger with his little fingers, smiling wide. He looked so cute that I couldn't stop myself from showering him with kisses. But that
"She is fine Mr. Russo. Stress has taken a toll on her. And I am afraid if she keeps stressing herself like this, she will hinder her health, badly. " Xander let the doctors' word settle, his gaze fixed on his angel, lying unconscious on the hospital bed. Her face was pale, with no life. " There are certain things, that I would like to discuss with you in my office. Please follow." Finishing, the 40 years old man left, after a last glance at his unconscious patient. He didn't fail to notice the tears wetting, Xander's face and hence decided to give the couple some time.With Iris's cold hands clasped in his, Xander, let the tears fall from his eyes. He didn't even try hiding it. Seeing her like, this, is paining him, as he has never felt before.He feels like his whole world, had been ripped away from him, here the love of his life, is passed out on the hospital bed, and the kid he claimed as his son is in danger.And he fucking wants to burn down everything, by merely thinking of th
