Xander's POV.

I frowned, struggling to piece together his cryptic words. Michael took another step closer, his gaze shifting towards the floor for a split second and when he looked back at me, something shifted in his eyes. A flash of emotion, something raw. He seemed vulnerable in a way I would never have guessed I would see him.

“And the greatest thing we have in common, is her.” He said, his voice thick with something I couldn't name.

I froze, my breath catching in my throat. The weight of h

  • Kidnapped By The Mafia King   Chapter 153

    Iris's Pov.It's been almost two months since I last got my period. It's not unusual for me to miss it due to stress but there has been no reason for me to be stressed.Emilia saw the realization dawn on my face and stood up abruptly.“Put on your shoes.”“Why?” I asked, furrowing my brows in confusion.“We're going to get you a pregnancy test.” She said, a little too excited.“I don't think I'm pregnant. It's not like I've been throwing up every morning or feeling any other symptoms. That has only happened once.” I said, remembering the time I fell ill back in Russia.But I've been fine after that.“Pregnancy is different for everyone. Not everyone has obvious symptoms. Come on!” She urged me.“What do we say to the guys.” I asked, pointing up the stairs in the direction where Xander and Julian walked off to.“Don't worry. I'll text Julian that we're going out for an evening stroll. So come on.”I released a sigh and stood up. I doubted I was pregnant but even as I had this tiny fl

    Xander's POV.I had hosted meetings with some of the most dangerous men you could ever think of but none of them made me as nervous as I was tonight.We had gotten back from Russia the previous day, and Julian and Emilia would soon be coming over for the double date.I was pacing around the living room like a goddamn idiot.“Will you stop doing that?”I glanced over my shoulder to look at Iris sitting on one of the couches, a glass of fresh orange juice in her hands and amusement dancing in her beautiful eyes.“What am I doing?” I asked innocently.“Pacing. You've walked past me thirteen times.”“I believe I've counted only ten.”She laughed.“You just proved my point.”God, I love the sound of her laughter. I walked over and leaned down, pressing a kiss on the top of her head.Iris set her glass down and wrapped her arms around my waist. The simple touch immediately eased some of the tension in my shoulders.“You need to stop overthinking this.”“I'm not overthinking.”She cocked an

    Iris's Pov.I spent the whole evening with Iris. I didn't want her to feel alone as she wasn't feeling okay. We stayed in the living room most of the time and I did my best to make sure she was comfortable.When it got dark out, signaling that it was time for bed, I carried her to the bedroom as she was half asleep. I carefully put her down on the mattress which caused her to stir. I sat down beside her as she lay on her side. My hand caressed her hair, feeling the silky touch between my fingers.“Do you want to take a quick bath before bed?” I asked her.She nodded and looked up at me with a soft smile. I leaned down to kiss her before walking into the adjoining bathroom where I sat on the edge of the tub to start filling it up. When I turned my head towards the door, I saw her walking inside in only her underwear.My eyes drifted across her smooth skin, lingering on her wide hips a few seconds longer. I smiled when she stepped closer to stand between my widened legs. She still looke

    Iris's Pov.I tilted my head back up, smiling up at Xander as he stood opposite me by the edge of the bathtub. He still had his button-up shirt and dress pants on. His handsome features made it hard for me not to jump him at that moment. Parts of his hair rested on his forehead.“You want to join me?” I asked.He smiled and I watched as his eyes dropped to my almost bare chest and his jaw clenched.“You're naked.” He mumbled.My eyes moved across his muscled body.“I am,” I said in a soft tone.He hummed and to my surprise, he started undressing. I watched him intently as he took off his shirt, pants, shoes, even his boxer briefs. The sight of his cock made my pussy clench. It had been a while since I've had him inside me and I was fucking craving him.“A picture will last longer.” He teased me.I looked away and saw from the corner of my eye that he slid down inside the tub, sitting opposite me. The water didn't even reach his chest. He exhaled deeply and lifted his arms to rest on t

  • Kidnapped By The Mafia King   Chapter 149

    Xander's POV.It was that time of the year when I went to stake out potential clients and impending income and there was no way I was leaving without taking Iris with me. This time, my destination was Russia.Iris slept the entire flight, curled up in her seat. Her pink lips parted as she breathed in and out peacefully. I, on the other hand, had my laptop on my lap. I still had some work to do. We were going to be staying at one of the hotels just outside the city.Angelo wasn't with us because I wanted him to find information about the connection between Iris's father and the men who were after his family. Her dad however, seemed to have covered his tracks very well. All we know is that he owes them money which could mean a lot of things. I had met with him eagerly after Iris told me that he wanted to speak with me the other day thinking he finally wanted to tell me about this. Turns out he wanted to confirm my intentions for his daughter.Sigh.I heard a tired groan from behind the

    Iris's Pov.“Tell me, darling, how's Xander treating you?” She asked, suddenly changing the subject before I could as she took a sip of her drink.“He's treating me very well. I couldn't be happier with anybody else.” I said, smiling sheepishly.“That's good. And you tell me if he treats you with anything but respect, okay?” She said in a serious tone, taking another sip of her drink. I chuckled slightly, nodding my head.“I must be honest though, when I saw you at the dinner in New York, I was shocked.”I frowned.“Shocked?” I asked and she nodded.“From what I gathered about Xander after he came into our lives, he didn't seem the type to show any serious interest in a woman let alone bringing her to our usual family dinners.I quite honestly feared that he would never settle down. That he would never experience the joy of falling in love. But I see the way he looks at you and I don't have that fear anymore.” She smiled, gesturing her fingers towards me.“How?” I asked. Even though I

    Iris's PovJust like I suspected, he read through my nonsense, inching closer, gripping my chin with force with his fingers. “Do you want to test that theory?” He shook his head sideways, the smirk still playing on his face. “A little game? What do you say?”“I'm done playing games with you, Xander

    Iris's Pov.“You remember Courtney, your savior?” My body froze. He said it as if he was laughing in my face. My heart skipped a beat and Xander smirked like a lunatic at me.The temperature in the room dropped a few degrees, just the way I froze from the inside. “How sweet for both of you to thin

    Iris's Pov.Just as I was about to exit the room, my path was blocked a bit aggressively by nine people other than Ethan. His hand held my arm with a gentle, yet forced hold. There was no sign of that warm smile on his face.“What's going on, Iris? What's Xander doing here?” He asked. “I thought I

    Iris's Pov.I hated the way he was looking at me almost as if he missed me. I hated the way my mother was smiling adorably at him. I hated the fact that I noticed how drop-dead handsome he was with his freshly cut hair. I hated how my body tingled and itched when he reached out his hand to me, wait
