…Mekayla POV…
Last night we decided that I will be going ahead with the operation, now if I say that I was not petrified I would be lying. I have faced so many challenges in my life, but this will be by far the toughest. Yet, I am so grateful that I will not be facing this one on my own. Xavien will be there every step of the way. He is that silver lining that I need when I feel that the clouds around me are getting too dark. So I am going to do absolutely everything to show him how much I love him. I don't know how to give love, but I will try my damnedest to show him.But if there is one thing that I can say about Xavien, then it is the man has a heart beyond compare, especially with the devotion he shows to those he loves and the lengths that he shall go to protect them. I so did expect him to be a different man out here in the city, but he has not lost one bit of the part of him that he was back home.This morning, I have decided to make breakfast fo…Xavien POV…As the ambulance gets to the hospital, we find Doctor Wilson is already waiting for us on the steps. But the moment that Mekayla sees the wheelchair, she changes her mind."I will not go in there if you put me in that thing. I can walk!""Princess, you are still very weak; please, you won't be able to walk so far.""No, Xavien, I say no wheelchair."I nod to Doctor Wilson that very reluctantly pushes it away. He comes and helps them to help her out of the ambulance. The instant he sees how pale her face is looking, he is immediately concerned."Let's get you to a bed; I need to do more tests.""No tests!"If I thought that coming to the hospital mean that they can do tests, it seems that I have completely misunderstood the concept of why we are here."Mekayla, please, remember how we said they must see what is wrong?""Yes?""Now, Princess, they need to do tests to see what has changed from the last ti
…Mekayla POV…I look at Xavien as we both are just wrapped in towels; we are just staring at Doctor Wilson. We don't care much for wearing anything, but we only want to hear what those results say. So Xavien pulls me close to him and wraps his arm around my shoulder. We watch as Doctor Wilson slowly opens the file that he has in his hand. Now we have no idea by just telling at the expression on his face if it is good or bad. But then, as he asks us to sit down, he gets a frown on his face. If he did not frustrate me before, then he is surely now doing it."Doctor Wilson, please just tell us what we already know."'"Well, Xavien, Mekayla, I found your other results, but when I looked at it, I knew I had to get the results of the ones we did today. So I went to wait for them myself.""Thank you, doctor, but surely that was not necessary?""Well, you are right that it was not necessary, for they both told me the same.""So what do they say no
…Mekayla POV…We have just received the most incredible news; as Xavien would say, that miracle that we were hoping for has now come true. I could never understand the blind faith that he has in something that I never could see and least of all believed. If it were not for him that kept on pushing me to my limits and even beyond that, we would not be sitting in this room and finding out that there is no blood clot at all. Xavien is that rock that I have leaned on all my life, and I can honestly say that I am grateful that he has not given up on me for even one day at all.I, along with Xavien, have not stopped crying since we have heard the news. Xavien is holding me tighter than I think he has ever done before. He is sobbing even louder than I am; there is some part of me that must fight the urge not to giggle back at him. But his cries are pure sounds of relief. All the pain and uncertainty are washing away with every single tear that falls down his cheek.
…Mekayla POV…This man is absolutely sinful; he can be dangerous one moment, then all sweet and sexy the next. And now, he is staring at me with that darn cheeky smile on his face,"Come on, princess, just a minute.""Mr. Caruso, I somehow don't think that you are a one-minute man, and No! we are in my office."Yes, Xavien has come with me for the day to see where I play, to see what I do that is so important to me. Even though I might have found the man I love, I am still not giving up on my dream to open my own practice. So this is why I brought him here to understand that no matter what wealth we both carry, this is still the only thing that I want to do. And, apart from trying to pin me down onto my desk, I think he seems to understand.Well, I think that is until…Hi picks me up and sits me on the edge of the table; he grabs my ankles and slides me closer to the edge of the table."Xavien, I said no. Not here.""Pleas
...Xavien POV...Leaving her in there with him is driving me insane. The man looks like nothing but trouble, no wonder she has not mentioned him before. And by the looks of him, he was obviously not worth mentioning in the first place.As I stand here against the door, I cannot hear much of what is going on. I keep on telling myself she is fine and if she is not that she will call me.And then, just as I feared, I hear her scream. I grab hold of my gun and burst through the door only to find the bastard raising his hand to my princess."Get your hands off her!"The minute he sees me raising my gun and walk toward him, he drops his hand and looks at me with a goddam grin on his."Wipe that shit off your face and get your fucking hands off her."The minute he lets go, she runs straight into my arms. Her soft historical sobs are enough to get my blood boiling. It seems that someone needs to be taught how to have respect for a woman. Unfortunately for
...Mekayla POV...He is refusing to answer my questions; I need to know what he did to Damian. If Damian is dead, then it will be my fault; I should have never let him leave me alone with him, for I fully knew what Damian is capable of doing. But we did not hear any shots or, for that case, anybody screaming, but the construction outside was very loud you would not have heard a thing.And now he wants me to move my office to him. This was not quite how I saw myself starting my own practice. I always thought that I would have started it back home, but I know that somehow we will never move back there, and to be honest, I do not really want to.But Mr. Caruso is about to learn how dirty I can play to get the answers out of him. Is lowly sway my hips as I walk toward him where he is sitting on the chair?"You know what is going to be a pity.""No, tell me, princess.""We are never going to be able to have sex on my desk.""Well, we do have some time n
...Mekayla POV...So it seems that my mom's little pet, Raymond is that scumbag that I first thought him to be after all. No to say that he actually has some guts to go as far as this remains to be seen even after Xavien has warned him on more than one occasion to stay away from me. Well, it seems that the man is still left to learn his lesson; I just hope for my mom's, wait, that woman that I use to call my mother, I just hope for her sake that she is not the one that has told him where to find me.Now to say that Xavien is not scared of his head would be a blatant lie, and I hate to say that it all in only but a matter of one day. I hate that I have to put him through this. The past week has been nothing but a battle for him, to think that for what can now be the third time around, he has to fight for me to remain by his side. Yes, I need him now, but I also need him to know that I am not a scared little girl. I deal with a bunch of assholes every day; one stupid man is
…Xavien POV…She is like a breath of fresh air on a fluffy white cloud. That is what her naked body feels like as she lays pressed peacefully up against mine. I am not a man for soft and tender moments, but this is something I could easily get used to every day. I do sound like every part of me has gone all mushy inside, but this is how I shall feel about her for as long as I possibly can.As I see her slowly start to stir, I cannot but help get an enormous smile on my face. If I thought I looked like a mess when I wake, her head of fuzzy hair is the cutest thing I have ever seen."Morning, princess.""Hey, you.""How did you sleep?""Like a baby. What was it that you mumbled before I fell asleep last night?"Damn, I was so hoping she did not hear what I said last night. I never thought that I would say it to a woman, at least not so soon anyway. My ego is far too big to admit it to her now."Nothing; I think I might have just ki
