Xavier's Surrogate TIRED
“That son-of-a-bitch better watch his fucking back!” Greta snarled, “Cause the next time I set my eyes on him, I’ll be ripping his skin off his bones!”“Jesus, Greta,” Halle said in shock, “You need to calm down,”She could feel the woman’s anger through the phone and Halle knew what Greta was capable of when angry.“The last thing I want is for you to go to jail because of my personal problems,” Halle said. Her phone was on the vanity table and loudspeaker as both her hands were busy, pulling out the pins on her hair and releasing her thick strands from their tight bondage.“Your personal problems?” Greta practically seethed, Halle could almost imagine the smoke leaving her ears and her narrowed eyes.“This shit is far beyond a personal problem Halle! Why didn’t you go to the fucking cops?”“Because…” Halle sighed in relief as her hair finally came loose and fell to her back.“It's Simon and—”“—oh forget it!” Greta groaned, “After all, when you were supposed to call the cops on that
Xavier's Surrogate SOMETHING ELSE
The dining room was dimly lit, unlike what it was earlier in the day. The scent of homemade pasta and sauce drifted to Halle’s nose, she inhaled deeply, her stomach grumbling as she made her way to the take. He was there.He was still in his three-piece suit hit, he had taken his blazer off and loosened his tie, kept it right next to his blazer on the armrest, the first three buttons of his dress shirt were left open and he looked laid back.He looked really good with long hair but damn, this low-cut hairstyle was just...It gave him a certain edge that she didn’t see before. It seemed like he had slow-growing hair...Or was he just trimming it every morning?His eyes had been on her since she stepped through the door.She could feel it and also wanted to pretend that she didn’t. Tabitha had just set down an extra dish on the table right next to Xavier’s fingers, he flashed Tabitha a grin and muttered a ‘thank you' to her.Halle blew out a short breath, summoning courage from whate
Xavier's Surrogate LEAVING HER WITH QUESTIONS
Xavier sat up, his eyes no longer avoiding hers once she’d asked the question, she tried to gauge his reaction but for someone that was pretty confident in her accuracy of reading people, she was failing miserably right now. She couldn’t understand a single thing when it came to Xavier. His expression became blank and he reclined into his chair and interlocked his fingers in front of him. Halle bit her bottom lip nervously, staring into his insanely calm eyes and wondering if she should be worried about such a reaction. He looked like he didn’t have a care in the world, he looked like Halle didn’t just ask him if he killed someone in cold blood. What was she going to do if he said yes? How was she going to react? Would that change her views or mayhap by chance, her feelings? “You think I killed him,” Xavier said, swirling the wine in his glass before emptying it yet again! He closed his eyes and let out a soft sigh like he was savoring the taste. Halle caught a glimpse of his p
Xavier's Surrogate HIS LONELY SHOULDERS
“There you are…” Halle heard a voice whisper softly into her ear.Halle could vaguely remember strong arms wrapping around her waist and lifting her body off the damp grass. She wanted to protest but she was in between sleep and reality.Instead, she nuzzled into the warmth and sighed contently as she inhaled that familiar scent.“You shouldn’t be out in the cold like this…”Was that faint voice Martha’s? She could hear the urgency and worry in her tone.“I am fine Martha…get the door,”Xavier. His voice was deep and strong and she remembered feeling soft thuds from his chest against her face.Halle woke up with a content smile on her face, a yawn left her lips as she stretched and then pulled the sheets off her body.Halle was reluctant to leave the warmth and softness of the bed but—She froze.Bed?Why was she on a bed?Halle could remember falling asleep under the tree while waiting for her sobriety to disappear but instead, it seemed like the alcohol only made her fall
Xavier's Surrogate A PARTY!
Halle spent the next two days hiding out in her room, using reading for her final exams as an excuse. As much as she didn’t want to take advantage of the women working in Xavier’s house, she had begged Collette to bring up her food any time they cooked.As much as Halle wanted to be in the kitchen, where all the magic happened, she also wanted to avoid Xavier as much as possible, not liking just how strong his effect on her was.Halle spent most of her time in the room reading and the time she wasn’t reading in preparation for the exams, she spent it repeating to herself that this was a job and nothing else.Sure, Xavier had done more for her than any other boss would do and she had more benefits than any surrogate she’s heard of. These things made it tougher for her to convince her mind that everything was strictly professional and that they should continue to stay that way.That dinner with Xavier had almost broken every single one of the rules she had set for herself because Ha
Xavier's Surrogate JUNE
June had picked up the dress from the bed, brought it out of its plastic bag seal, and then spread it out properly on the bed for Halle to see.Halle gasped, her mouth agape as she stared down at the ethereal dress Xavier had picked for her.It was a long black dress that had faint red hues when it was under light.It was a simple dress with a v-line that dipped almost provocatively and had a slit that Halle was sure would stop just above her knees.“It is beautiful,” She said in awe as she ran her hand down the shimmering materials. It was rough to the touch but the material on the inside was as soft as silk. “Mr. Stone had asked his cousin personally to design this dress for you, I was there when he made the call,” June said in a low voice as she brushed her hands over the dress looking down at it in a way that Hale could only describe as longingly.Halle was floored by the woman’s actions but she spent enough time around June to know that she would not be getting any answers
Xavier's Surrogate TONIGHT
Xavier stared down at the laptop screen on his lap. His eyes burned from not sleeping all night but that wasn’t enough to slow him down. His fingers danced across the keyboard at a speed that one could only achieve from years of practice and skills, Monty, his cousin, stood in front of him with a solemn expression, like he always had. “We don’t have to go to that event today, you should stay—” “—I am not staying home tonight,” Xavier said, interrupting Monty’s words. Sure he felt better whenever the man opened his mouth to speak willingly but as always, their opinions will always differ. “We do not know what moves the Delgados will make tonight, we will all be in public, in an open space, Xavier,” Monty’s eyes narrowed, “Vulnerable in every way,” He finished. Xavier shook his head and added the last characters to the codes he’d been working on since the day before. “We will not be vulnerable, you’re only saying that because you think I can not handle it,” Xavier takes off his gl
Xavier's Surrogate BEAUTIFUL
“…Wow!” Halle gasped as she stared down at her reflection in the full-length mirror.Her hair was pulled up into a style she never imagined she would ever be able to carry, and an elegant bun that left a few curled locks down the sides of her face and some rested on the back of her neck. The makeup wasn’t too heavy but June made sure to highlight all of Halle’s features, bringing out a certain brightness in her eyes she never imagined she had.The dress felt soft and light on her skin, that provocative dip in the chest area didn’t go as low as she thought it would but it did show a generous amount of her chest but not so much that she would uncomfortable.She paired it with black heels that June had brought at the last minute.June stood behind Halle, both her hands clasped in front of her as she also took in the sight of her handwork.“Martha wasn’t kidding when she said you were good,” Halle voiced, her eyes meeting the woman’s through the mirror.June replied with a simple sh
