Xavier's P.O.VA faint smile that faltered formed in my face as I bobbed my head. A smile that depicted her nervousness almost formed on her face as well as she fiddled with her fingers while my heart moved with nothing but sheer pity for her.After the silence that pervaded between us, I stretched my hands towards her as she kept her gaze fixed on my palm. When she was unsure about what I was trying to do, she glanced back and forth between my hand and my face."W-What do you want? Alpha Xavier" She questioned and I watched as she swallowed the heavy lump that formed in her throat."I want your international passport! I suddenly developed the feeling to keep it with me" I said while laughing awkwardly. She swirled her gaze around the room, placing her hands on her jaw as if she was trying to recollect something.I watched as she pouted her lips and gasped as if she suddenly remembered something. When I saw the look on her face, my eyebrows furrowed in confusion because I really hoped
Irene's P.O.VI flicked my eyes open instantly as fore beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I had a nightmare that sent shivers to run down my spine and even though I couldn't remember it clearly, I knew that I surely had a nightmare that related to my mom's suicide and Lily's suicide as well. I reached my hands for the glass of water next to the lamp stand as I sat upright on the bed and gulped down all the water in the glass cup.I placed my hand on my forehead because of the sharp pain that I felt inside my head that continued to linger on. Switching on the lamp stand, I heaved out an exasperated sigh that depicted my worry and frustration as I ran my hands through my hair.The reason why I was having these terrible nightmares was thanks to that bastard named Steve who managed to instill fear in me. What exactly was he planning alongside Erior? Why did it feel like if things go wrong and backfire in the end, Steve would make me take the fall for it.I pulled my knees to my chest a
Irene's P.O.VMy heart beat with trepidation as I fell to the ground while gasping for breath. Whoever it was, that flashed that light outside my room was really dangerous because the cold aura that swirled around the person already gave that person off already. I placed my hands on my chest in a bid to calm the way my heart juddered in my chest.My head was flooded with different thoughts while wondering who might be standing outside the window so late in the night. I had a feeling that something wasn't right and I knew that I needed to get to the root of all it..I took in a deep breath that seemed to calm all my nerves as I leaned against the wall while trying to suppress the gasps that were trying to escape my mouth as I covered my mouth with my hands.I made space for a little opening around the window as I peeked through the window in order to see if the person who flashed the light right at my face was still there.Everywhere was stark dark!It made me wonder what could have ha
Irene’s P.O.VI stood frozen to a spot while trying to wonder who could be in the kitchen by the time of the night. Maybe I should have just slept off despite knowing how thirsty I was because me coming here now would make me have an encounter with someone and if it was Kourtney who was at the kitchen, then she would have cause a scene for sure and Kourtney being in the kitchen meant another series of trouble for me.I slipped a hand through my hair and contemplated either returning to my room like that and sleep despite me being thirsty. Amidst my thoughts, my stomach made a growl that was so loud that I was scared that whoever was in the kitchen would surely notice. I was still rooted to the same spot when I heard the sound of someone munching something hard.“Maybe the person is hungry as I am” I thought to myself as I heaved out a sigh and took in a deep breathe that seemed to calmthe rate at which my heart juddered in my chest. I clenched the side of my shirt as I placed a hand
Irene's P.O.VI was at a loss for words to say, wondering what could be wrong with Xavier as he fell on me. What took me by surprise was his body temperature which was surprisingly so hot.Was he sick all along? Was he the one who flashed light right on my face? What could have caused him to faint like that and why the hell was his temperature so hot that it looked like he could bake thousands of bread at that rate? Different thoughts raced through my head as I slowly hit him on the cheek, whispering for him to stand his feet.I knew that I should be screaming at the moment but Kourtney finding me with her man in the middle of the night would be like inviting trouble to one's self with one's hands. "This is sick" I hissed as my face contorted in a frown while running my hands through my hair frustratedly. With all the thoughts that ran through my head, I had no idea about what to do with Xavier because abandoning him in the kitchen wasn't right in any way.If only I hadn't come to t
Xavier's P.O.VEven though it was all dark and I couldn't see her face properly, her eyes gleamed in the darkness and shone like all the rarest of the stars were gathered inside her eyes. I lifted my hand and brushed my hands through her face as she attempted to say a word but I brushed my fingers through her lips before expelling out a sigh and tugging my hands down my pockets."We would surely go to Scotland tomorrow and maybe you should go to bed now, I don't want to bother you about anything," I said while she slowly removed my hands that were hung on her shoulders.She switched on the light and kept her gaze fixed on me before proceeding to talk. She stood before me and even though she wasn't saying a word at the moment, I could see how hard she was trying to talk to me.She heaved out a sigh and tugged the strands of hair that fell on her face behind her ear. Silence pervaded between us and that was the only thing that I wanted! I just wanted everything to be calm, peaceful, and
Irene's P.O.VI almost jumped out of the bed in fright when I heard the loud bang on the door. My eyes twitched as I rubbed my hands through my eyes while trying to process where I was at the moment. The loud bang on the door didn't stop and it sounded more like something was being used to hit the door. I shook my head, swiveling my gaze around the room as I sat upright on the bed.Different thoughts raced through my mind as I wondered who could be in the room at the moment. I stood to my feet, ran my hands through my hair until my eyes landed on the wall-clock."Shit!" I cussed as my eyes almost popped out of my socket. I averted my gaze from the wall-clock back to the alarm that I had set after I saw Xavier off to his room at midnight."Irene, are you deaf? Don't you know that it's time to go now? How many times do you want me to knock and remind you about the trip? What in the world is even wrong with you" I heard Damian scream from the outside and it sounded more like he had resor
Irene's P.O.VA silence that made me uncomfortable and made my stomach tie a knot formed between the three of usas I was resisting all the urge to not fiddle my hands before Xavier. All of a sudden, I was taken aback when I felt someone, brushing his fingers on my hair while patting me on the head slowly.I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me who it was because I knew that it was no one other than Xavier. I pursed my lips slightly as I was hit by a sudden wave of nervousness that made my stomach churn. I had no idea why it felt like I was about to fall on my knees to the ground but what I knew was that the way Xavier patted me on the head was damn good."Raise your head" I heard Xavier say as I raised my head and fixed my gaze on him. I was totally at a loss for words to say because of the way his emerald eyes pierced into mine.I felt butterflies flying in my stomach as I gulped on my spittle and forced out a smile that faltered quickly.Slowly, all the excitement building inside of
