Xena Remington I hear a knock on my door while I was making my morning coffee. Images of Axel's hands on me started flashing in my head making the familiar beat in my core return. I hated how no matter how hard I tried to stay away from that man. It never worked for me. I was somehow always drawn to him. I knew Axel will stop the minute I put my foot down and told him I don’t want him anymore but somehow I can never say it to him. The minute his hands touch my body, my brain becomes all mushy.Damn it.I curse at myself as I start the coffee machine before heading towards the door. It was probably my mailman or the neighbour’s kid wondering if I have time to play or not. Considering it's Sunday, I probably can hang out with him for some time. His mom and I get along so well that I always get to hear some or the other gossip.I open the door only for my eyes to meet someone’s broad shoulder and chest. I crane my neck up to see Archer Lancaster standing in front of me. I move aside to
Axel LancasterXena Remington is going to be the death of me. Of course, I had heard about her quite a few times before I even met her. Jerold, her ex, always said that she was very slow and dumb but he did love her. So you can imagine my surprise when I met this beautiful woman who faced a lot of trouble keeping her mouth shut.Even though when I first met her she seemed a little scared of me, it didn’t stop her from keeping her from being stubborn and telling me her opinions. It was funny how Jerold always told me that she never really argued and did everything he wanted her to do without any questions or arguments. But with me, she is a feisty little vixen who likes playing games and constantly challenging me and telling me what to do, knowing that I can never say no to her. It’s funny to see her interact with my family and get along with everyone, especially my brothers.Tiffany never really merged in as a member of my family, she liked to keep her life separate which should’ve b
Xena Remington I hear continuous knocks on my door as I continue staring at my phone which had a message from Archer that he has figured it out and that he is on his way to meet me. The knocks on my door get louder as I nervously stare at it, wondering what can I do to make him less angry.“I know you are in there. Open the damn door. I need to set you straight.” I bite my lip as I head towards the door, holding a hand to my chest.I knew Axel was incapable of hurting me but for some reason, I knew I had pissed him off a lot. I did something he warned me not to do, repeatedly. I opened the door mid—knock as I greet him with a big smile on my face.“Axel, what a pleasant surprise-“ I start out in a very cheery voice trying to not think of how hot a pissed-off Axel looked.“Cut the crap, princess.” he says as he pushes me back in the house and slams the door behind him, “What the hell makes you think you have the right to interfere in my life and do the only thing that nobody, not even
Xena Remington It has been nearly ten days since I have been 'forced' into this new bodyguard situation. If this happened under any other circumstances, I would be convinced that I am God's favourite child. I would be so thrilled to stay around a super-hot man that every girl stares at as we walk past them and I would do everything possible to spend more quality time with him.But I wasn’t interested in him. I wanted Axel, also from how he barely looks at women, I am guessing Carter is gay. The hottest of women have hit on him and he has flat-out refused.I haven't left my house unless it is absolutely important. I have been trying so hard to avoid Axel that I have even strategically plan going to the office so I don’t end up meeting him at the entrance of my office. Even though I am worried about Axel catching onto my little act, I am going to roll with it for as long as I can. For all I care, he is probably too busy to even notice it.I finally get tired of having Carter around al
Xena Remington I rush to an empty room and reach for my phone to call Zara. I frantically pace around in my room while I wait for Zara to pick up the phone. I need to get out of here. "I can't stay in this city anymore. I need to get out. Help me escape," I rant out my thoughts as soon as Zara answers the call, not even waiting for her to say hello. I am too freaked out to waste time on greetings and formalities. "Wait, what is going on? Where is Axel? Do you want me to call Asher-" Zara asks, mirroring the panic in the voice. "NO!" I exclaim before continuing, "In fact, if Asher is anywhere near you, run. These Lancaster brothers are bad people. They do all sorts of crimes. They murder people-" "Yes, I am very aware. They are known for it." She says in a matter-of-fact-ly tone. "No, you don't understand. They are ruthless and-" I ramble, panic overwhelming me."Okay, Xena, I need you to calm down. Tell me what happened exactly. " Zara says in a soothing voice. I suck in a deep
Zara Howard It all happened so quickly, anyone could barely process how our living room turned into a gangster scene from a movie. A drunkard gambler who borrowed too much money from the Mafia and had nothing to offer except for empty promises when it was pay up time. Only difference was this time the drunkard was my stepfather, Chad Hudson and the Mafia was Asher Lancaster, the powerful mob boss, who brought with him 6-7 terrifying armed men. My mother was tightly gripping onto my arm as she tried to drag me and my older sister, Scarlett farther away from them. My eyes, however, were fixated on the scene unfolding right in front of me. My stepfather on his knees begging for more time, claiming that he would definitely pay up the next time, even though we all knew that even if he worked his ass off for a lifetime, he wouldn’t be able pay off his debt. Asher had made himself comfortable on one of the chairs. He was wearing a white button-up shirt, making faint outlines of his
Xena Remington"So, I'm guessing you're not really planning to talk to me? But I can't believe you have nothing better to do than follow me around. I thought you went to business school with Asher. You were the top student in your class, and now you're just trailing after me. Why?" I fired off a continuous stream of questions at Carter as he sat in front of me, my fingers dancing over my laptop keys.He shook his head and returned his attention to his phone, causing me to emit an audible groan from my chair, which I then swiveled around in. I was intentionally acting oddly, hoping to provoke even a hint of a reaction from him, but his expression remained unyielding."I am guessing that you don’t have a girlfriend. If you do, I find that very hard to; it's almost impossible," I commented, catching a brief twitch of his lips into a smile before his face returned to its usual blank state."So you're never going to talk to me? CARTER!" My voice spiked with frustration, finally capturing h

Yeah I know, crazy! I never thought that I’d settle for an arrange marriage but I didn’t mind it right now. I’ve been communicating with my fiancé for a long time now over letters. We met each other when we were kids and played together, but around the age of eleven, he moved schools. A few months ago, we started writing letters to each other and I really started to like
