LOGINDearest gentle readers, would you like to see more of Xavier's POV? Please let me know in the comments section.
ZARAAfter staring dangerously at each other for a good ten seconds, laughter suddenly erupted from both of them before they wrapped their arms around each other.I stared at them, confused.“You didn’t tell me you were coming into town,” Xavier said.“I wanted to surprise you. And I had to come and assume my duties as the Beta, since I heard you’re willing to lead the pack now,” he said.“Bold of you to assume I would make you my Beta.”“If I’m not your Beta, then no one else could be. I’ll have their heads,” Adrian responded smoothly.He wrapped an arm around Xavier again. “I missed you.”“That’s gay,” Xavier grunted and they both laughed. My arms were wrapped around my chest as I stared at the both of them in amusement. I never knew Xavier had a best friend that he was this close with.“Won’t you introduce me to her?” Adrian flicked his gaze at me. “Dagger Princess.”“What?” My eyes widened.“Did I tell you?” He looked at Xavier. “She almost gutted my liver out with a knife. I had
ZARAMy legs parted on their own accord, my chest rising and falling as Xavier’s hand reached my folds, caressing them through my panties. Pleasure rippled through me, and I could barely breathe.His lustful eyes locked with mine, and he ran his tongue along his bottom lip as he continued to rub against my folds. My moans were soft but rapid. My pussy contracted tightly, anticipating being filled by him.Then the sound of footsteps came from down the hall.Grace’s.Fuck!I pushed him away without hesitation and jumped to my feet.Grace slipped into the kitchen but paused when she saw us.“Good morning, Alpha.” She bowed to Xavier, then to me. “Good morning, ma’am.”“Good morning, Grace,” I replied quickly, tucking my hair behind my ear.“Breakfast is set already. You can leave,” Xavier groaned, not even trying to hide that he was chasing her away so we could continue.“I’ll come back before lunch so I could...” she started, but he cut her off.“Do not bother. Take the rest of the day
ZARAIt seemed really strange and almost unbelievable that Daniel would try to harm me. He had been really sweet and nice to me since I joined the team, but then, evil wasn’t always written on the face. He was arrested and taken into police custody but was later released since there wasn’t any concrete evidence against him. He had also claimed that his key card was missing and that he only found it after the culprit dropped it on one of the workbenches.Further investigations were being carried out, and until then, Daniel had been suspended from the company.It had been three days since everything happened, and I was fully back on my feet. Today was the Crescent Moon Gala, and nervousness had claimed my entire being. Everything would change for me today. My face would be plastered all over news channels, and Xavier and I would be the talk of the town. A price I had to pay for taking two million dollars.“I need to start raising my shoulders. Best friend to Zara Ashbourne, Xavier Kings
XAVIERI cleared my throat and adjusted my tie. “I was... uhm...”“You know, she is my only family, and it’ll kill me if anything happens to her.” He inched closer to me, aided by his walker, a pleading look in his eyes. “Please, I am begging you. Please protect my granddaughter.”He seemed to really love her, just as much as she loved him.I nodded. “I’ll try my best.”He paused, staring at me as though trying to recall something. “You look familiar, though. Have I met you before?”“When Zara and I visited, you...”“No. Before then,” he interrupted, continuing to stare at me. Then he shook his head and sighed. “Never mind. The scare I got from hearing about Zara’s incident probably affected my head.”He turned to the nurse standing behind him. “Please take me back to my room. The doctor is still waiting to assess me for my surgery later tonight.”The nurse glanced at me for a moment, then briefly nodded before following him.I remained there, staring at their retreating figures befor
ZARAMy face scrunched up as I watched her display of nonsense. She didn't give two fucks about me, so why was she crying? Did she hit her head somewhere? Because that was the only explanation I would accept for this sudden display of worry."Are you okay?" Monica continued as she came to a stop beside me. She searched my face. "The explosion didn't hit you?"She almost sounded disappointed."What?" I shot a brow up. "Are you disappointed?""No." She quickly shook her head and sighed. "I am just relieved. Alpha would've been so worried."I pressed my lips together, unsure how to react to her weird behavior."I am fine, Monica. Thank you," I said, almost rolling my eyes."I already called your grandpa to tell him. He's on his way here," she muttered.My eyes widened in shock."Now why on earth did you tell him? He has a heart condition, for fuck's sake. If I wanted him to know, I would've told him myself.""Oh..." Her lips parted. "I had no idea. I thought it was best to inform a famil
ZARAMy head ached so badly as I tried to open my eyes, but the blinding white lights forced me to shut them again. Then I slowly opened them, allowing my eyes to adjust to the light before fully opening them.White ceilings and walls came into view.Was I in the hospital? I wondered.Then I heard an unfamiliar voice."You are awake."I slowly turned to the side to see a man standing beside me, wearing a lab coat. Two nurses stood around him.What happened to me? Why was I in the hospital?The memory seemed blank because, for the life of me, the last thing I remembered was being in Xavier's office."There was an accident. An explosion in the lab. But you are fine now. Luckily, you didn't burn. You were quick enough to get away. You only sustained a head injury from hitting the desk behind you, and you also inhaled some of the toxic fumes. But you'll be fine," the doctor assured me.And that was when the memories came rushing back.I had momentarily left what I was working on to go to
ZARAThe glow of the sun warmed my cheeks, and I snapped my eyes open, quickly looking around.A sigh of relief escaped me.I had only imagined it.Last night, I thought Uncle Xavier had wrapped an arm around me and pulled my back against his chest. Seeing that he wasn't anywhere in sight, he proba
ZARAGrandpa was doing well, and I got the chance to meet the surgeon who would be performing his surgery. He was kind and professional, taking the time to brief me on the procedure and assure me that he would do everything possible to make it a success.There was still a pang of fear in my chest,
ZARA“Uncle Xavier, what are you doing?” I breathed, my chest heaving up and down as he slammed his palm against the tree above my head.“I should be asking you that question. Last night...” he trailed off, searching my eyes.“What happened last night?” I quickly asked when he didn't continue.His
ZARAPine, musk, and rain.Uncle Xavier's scent hit my nose, and I flicked my eyes open, my heart beating rapidly against my chest. I heaved a sigh of relief when I didn't find him on the bed. For a moment, I thought he had slept next to me because of how strongly I could perceive his scent.Last n
