Alexander's POV
"Sir, We are here. " as the words left I didn't wait long. And opened my doors rushing out.Quickly I moved towards the entrance of the club.The guards didn't stop. They know who I am, every freaking people know who I am.Entering the club, I was welcomed by booming music, and sweaty bodies rubbing each other. Women dressed next to nothing. Couples sucking, groping and some even fucking.The place disgusted me. I was scanning the place for any trace of my Bella. But she was nowhere in sight.I was on edge. Worried as fuck.!Where she could have gone? Did he take her somewhere? If that bastard even thought of doing my girl. I am gonna kill him.Angry I roamed and search every corner but all in vain.My heart was thumping in fear.Frustrated I raked my hands through my hair. I was pissed beyond. I wanted to break something or preferably to someone.Arghhhhh! After an unsuccessful search, I decided to head to the cc TV room to check, whether she even came here or not.But just as I turned a soft body bumped into me. Looking down I was relieved, it was as if life was again warm."Iris" I whispered. Slowly she raised her eyes.she stared at me confused."Mr Handsome " shouting she hugged me. I was stunned by her action, but the moment she embraced me. My heart was filled with warmth. My angel, she was in my arms. The moment was surreal I never thought I can ever hold her in my arms. But now when she is there I will take the full of it.The feeling was bliss. Her small body was perfectly engulfed in mine. I would have done anything to always keep it like that.Wrappings my arms around her. I relaxed all my cells in her hold.She is my tranquillity. She bases all my demons.I don't know what is about Iris. But it's like she is the only light to my darkness.After a few seconds she wiggled in my arms, looking at her I found her gazing into my eyes with a smile."Let's get out of here Bella," I said trying to move."No, I won't go Mr Handsome. I am having fun ." She resisted, though the endearment she uses bought a smirk to my lips. Still, I couldn't avoid her being drunk."Are you drunk Angel?" I asked holding her waist, as she is stumbling."Yes, I drank 4 glasses of cola." She said innocently ."let's get out of here princess. " I said trying to drag her but she stopped and whined."No, I want to dance, please. Only on dance pretty please," she begged, giving me her puppy dog eyes, batting her eyelashes. I don't know how anyone can refuse these eyes.She looks so adorable and pure."Fine. One dance. Only" I said shouting she dragged me to the dance floor.At the same time, a romantic number was played by the DJ.Iris put both her hands around my neck, my hands wrapped possessively around her waist.We started swaying to the music. Iris continuously looked into my eyes with a grin.Making it impossible for me to take my eyes off her.How am I supposed to be away from you? When you look at me like that Angel. I thought to myself.I wanted to freeze everything at that moment. The way we were close, the way she was looking at me with admiration. Everything. I wish I had power enough to freeze time, I would have in a heartbeat.After finishing our dance I took her out where Thomas was ready with the open doors, Iris was in my arms as being drunk she was unable to walk.I settled Iris beside me and seating myself I Commanded Thomas to take us home. I pulled the divider.Hearing a huff, I looked beside finding my angel with a frown.I don't know how she manages to look so bothered and cute at the same time."What's the frown for, angel?" I asked softly."I don't like sitting here." She said pouting."Just bare few minutes. Soon we will reach home." I said trying to ease her.Shaking her head she stood, I tried to hold her but she then places herself on my lap. Legs on both sides of me.She wiggled a little. I groaned I don't know what she is trying but whatever it is. It's making my cock hard.Finally, after a little wiggle, she settled herself comfortably on my lap. Today seems to be my lucky day.," you are warm.........." She whispered.For a few seconds, everything was quiet."I don't want to go home. No one loves me there. Except for mom." She said with sad eyes. I don't think she would have said this sober. Hence I kept quiet not knowing what to say. I just looked into her eyes they were sad.After a few minutes of silence, she raised her hand and caressed my cheeks. Cupping my both cheeks she pecked my nose."You truly are Mr Handsome," she started chuckling. Making my lips twitch. I know she's drunk and maybe doesn't remember any of it tomorrow. But for me, her confessions are enough to make me sleep at night. Knowing she finds me handsome and not old, brought warmth to my heart."But I am sad because of you, " she said sadly.I frowned what did I do to make her sad. "Why an angel?""I didn't like you with Ava like that." She confessed sadly burying her face in the crook of my neck."I don't like you looking at her like that....." she mumbled.When I try to raise her head to ask why she was already asleep.I was restless, I felt a little happy that maybe just maybe My Angel feels the same for me."Thomas take me to my condo," I commanded. Yeah, I changed my plan. Because I didn't want her mom to meet her drunk and maybe I just wanted to enjoy this moment which I may not get again.Reaching the building I carried Iris bridal style, entering the elevator I pressed for the top floor.I looked at my angel who was sleeping soundly her head in the crook of my neck. She feels so perfect in my arms. As if she was made for them only.Entering my condo I placed her on the bed. Removing her flats. I went out to make a call.Soon after I came back, I panicked. She was not in bed, I checked the bathroom, closest she was nowhere.I became worried sick, "Iris! Iris! " I shouted, entering the living room I hated seeing her standing on the balcony wearing nothing but one of my dress shirts.I walked towards her. Standing beside her. I found her eyes closed, hairs spread being blown away by the cold breeze of the night. The moonlight illuminated her face making her angelic face even more beautiful. I wanted to just hold the scenario. She was looking divine. Looking at her I was mesmerized. I was lost for words to describe how beautiful she looked at the moment. Silently taking my phone out, I snapped a picture of hers to preserve this treasure of moment for life.Slowly Iris opened her eyes. Which was shining reflecting the moonlight? Looking at me. She smiled and moved toward me she just hugged me. Engulfing her in my arms. I stared at the sky. It was a beautiful communication between us where our silence was conversing.The moment was pure. No world no people no judgments no accusations nothing.There was only me and my angel.The air turned cooler, and she shivered, picking her up I carried her bridal style and laid her down on the bed her eyes opened looking into mine as if they are scanning my soul. She raised her hands and pulled me towards her."Please stay." She whispered vulnerably.I was battling whether I should comply. I know she is drunk not in her correct state of mind, and tomorrow she would regret everything. And since I am sober I should be responsible. And I was not too sure about my self-control. Especially when she is looking so innocently sexy in my dress shirt.Her beautiful creamy legs are on display. But I couldn't stand her pleading eyes. Soon sighing I moved under the covers. Iris slowly moved towards me putting her head on my chest, her hand across my stomach.She closes her eyes satisfied with a faint smile on her face.I chuckled and pecked her nose. She is soft just like a feather.I was about to turn off the lamp. When a phone vibrated looking at the bedside table, I saw it was Iris's which I kept with me when I found her at the club.Unlocking it I saw a text notification.Unknown: you are back princess. Wait your prince is coming back to claim you. Soon very soon.Reading the text raged me.Who the hell fucking is he claiming My angel as his Princess? Deleting the text I put the phone on the table.The text infuriated me more. But suddenly my angel stirred relaxing all my tensed muscles." You are no one's Angel. You are my only mine." I whispered planting a long kiss on her temple.Engulfing her tightly. I switched off the lights.I know today I am going to have the best sleep of my life.As my angel was sleeping beside me.It's like a dream and I am hell-bent and determined to turn this into reality.But before that, I need to know what my angel feels.But for now, I closed my eyes, falling into the best sleep of my life.✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉✉Hey guys please if you like my story, pleaseVoteCommentAndShare.Enjoy reading 😉If you like my story and want me to continue.

Pushing my head further into the soft cushion. But my head was still as if being pounded by a hammer.Groaning in pain I woke. Sitting I messaged my temples, in an attempt to get rid of the ache. But it was no help.Half asleep I opened my eyes but no sooner did I open them, than I was all awake in shock.I was in an unknown bed and place. Looking around I found myself in a bedroom room, walls painted grey with purple ceilings. There are two doors on the left side of the bed one I think leads to the closest, the other bathroom. One in front which I assume is the door that led outside.Lookinatat g myself I found being surrounded by pillows, like in one set around sleeping babies to prevent them from falling.Frowning I got down. Thinking about who might be the person knowing I fall from the bed.Questions rushed all at once, panicking me.Where I am? Am I kidnapped by someone? Oh God, where am I? Panicked I looked down a
Iris's POV "Are you serious mom!" I was annoyed as hell. How can she even think of setting me up on a date with one of her friend's sons? That too without even asking me."Don't overreact sweety, it's not like he is a stranger. After all, you guys are old friends.!" She exclaimed making herself comfortable on the edge of my bed."I doubt that." And it's true Jacob Sterling and I was never friends. He was one of those students, I used to despise. He was one of the most popular. Being on a football team, his ego was bigger than his dad's bank account, thinking he can get anything with the snap of his fingers. He quite a time tried to hit on me but all in vain. And now here my mom wants me to go on a freaking date with that egoistic Jerk. " But Mom....." I whined. Plopping face on the bed."No buts Iris Brooke. He will be here in an hour, you better get ready. " Giving me a stern look she stood to left."Fine, but then don't expect me to be on my best behavior. And.... remind me again
Iris's POV Sometimes I think why we desire things we know are beyond our grasp.Right now I am here sitting in a posh restaurant with a person to dine with but he is not that on my mind, though he is in my sight.Still, my heart just wants to see and hear only one person, a person my heart had grown to feel something special for. It's not that it doesn't know what it's desiring, doesn't belongs to us. Still, my heart is convinced to stop beating if just your promise that it would be beating last in his presence.I know what I said. I know whatever this is I am feeling about Xander is wrong but still I can't convince my heart to come to terms with me.It's the first time that my heart and brain are battling for and against something at the same time. Where my heart is certain somehow about what it wants, my brain is still battling between rights and wrong.Earlier when I told myself, that I should stay away from Xander, I was determined. But now the way I am yearning for his mere pres
Iris's POV My first kiss. I never in million thought it would be like this.I am frozen. The shock is too much.I can feel Xander's soft lips kissing mine. I can feel the shiver all around my body. His lips tasted sweet. But stunned I was not responding."Kiss me back." The words broke the beautiful trance I was in. His voice against my lips did something, which made me move my lips involuntary.There was no thought or any reasoning. Our lips were moving in sync. The more we kissed, the craving increased.The way Xander is kissing me was showing a range of emotions. Earlier the kiss was filled with anger, Then his lips turned calm as if they found something lost and lastly his lips were soft, tender as if he is worshipping the moment he is carving every inch of my lips on our souls.There is no sucking no tongue involved. It's a simple kiss. A kiss to tell what words failed to say.Not only, Xander, but I had also put all my emotions into the kiss.This kiss is not an act of affecti
Iris's POV "Iris Brooke. I am giving you 5 minutes to move your ass or else..." Blair my best friend threatened for the hundredth time in the last three days.After Xander left. I didn't want to go back and face him. So I crashed at my childhood best friend Blair's place.Thinking about Xander was enough for me to groan and dig my face further into the pillow."Iris. ....." this time taking her warning seriously, I sat. Pouting.Blair stood at the edge of the bed with her blonde hair put in a messy bun. Her pale face scowling. Hands-on her slender hips with curves at all right places. And her blue eyes glinting a warning.Sitting Indian style. I give her my best puppy dog eyes, for her to stop bugging me."Oh don't you dare give me that look it's not going to work Missy. ." Sighing she took a place at the edge of the bed." Iris it's not I am complaining about your stay here. You can stay as long as you wish. But what concerns me is this sad expression on your face.I don't know what
Iris's POV Seeing Nathan my mood automatically got lifted. Not able to control my happiness I lunged toward him, engulfing him in a bear hug.Stumbling for a sudden he steadied himself and returned the hug chuckling at my childless."It's high time you acknowledged that I still exist." He mocked tightening his hold on me.It's the whole one year I last saw him. He and Ava were high school besties. He was the only one able to control Ava. Due to his frequent visits to our place we became very good friends. During high school, he was my savior. Because of him no one ever dared to bully me. Whenever I needed him he was always there.One year ago when I left he was out of town. His family is one influential in the town. Our families being good friends was a perk. "I am sorry for not contacting you." And yes I was sorry. Back then when I left. I got several calls from mom telling me he asked about my whereabouts. But then I was not ready for someone to weaken my determination."Tsk. tsk.
___________________________________Third person's POVAs the words left the doctor's mouth. Alexander felt like his heart shattered into a million pieces.The pain was too much for him to handle. He felt like he is losing the ability to breathe.Not able to hold the tears brimming his eyes, he left the place without a word ignoring the sobs of Mrs.Brooke, not giving an ear to Ava's calls.He was numb. Exiting he saw Thomas ready to open the doors."Keys.." seeing the look of coldness on his face Thomas didn't dare to protest. He was worried but reluctantly gave the keys.Starting the car Xander speeded opposite to the place that shattered his heart.He was breaking all the speed limits wanting the adrenaline rush to take all his pain away.He knew Iris was special to him but she would become this important to him that thinking of a life without her seemed impossible. He felt like something inside him died. Or as if someone is nailing his heart with a thousand nails.His gaze was fixe
"Fire in dark,Hope in oddsShe was beautiful in the stormAnd calm in the chaos.__unknown Fire in darkHope in oddsHe was a storm for the world But calm in my arms__Me"___________________________________Iris's POVMy heart was in bliss feeling him in my arms, and my words are feeling short to tell how surreal I am feeling right now. I feel a protected feeling like after wandering in the woods for eternity I had found my home, my Alexander.My. At this point, I don't even know if he is mine. But this time this is not going to stop me from breaking this beautiful trance of ours. "You scared me to death angel. " I felt Xander say, his hold going tighter."Sorry!" I didn't know what else to say."Don't ever do that again. Ever." He said sternly gazing into my eyes losing his grip on me then continued "you know how fucking worried I got, I wanted to kill Dean for not keeping an eye on you. If it was not for Thomas I would have killed my own free........." but before he could have c
