Xavier's Surrogate GONE
Halle awoke with a start. She gasped for air as she felt her back drenched in cold sweat and her hair matted to her forehead. Her heart pounded like she’d just run a marathon and her sleepiness had completely left her. “Halle?” She heard a worried voice from her side, a warm hand holding her shoulders and trying to shake her out of her unexplained state. “Flower…” He called out again. His baritone voice was enough to bring her back to her senses. “What’s wrong?” His hands moved up to her face, bringing her face closer, cupping her chin, and brushing tendrils of her curls away from her face. He was here, with her on her student bed that could barely contain two people. In his brown eyes were embers of worry, he didn’t let go, not even when she had forced a reassuring smile and tried to pull away from his grasp. “Nightmare?” He inquired, his eyes didn’t leave hers. It only then occurred to Halle that his eyes were bright, with no sign of sleep in them. Sunlight was seeping past t

Xavier's Surrogate MR. STONE
Halle really wished she could enjoy her weekend as she had planned to. In her five days and nights of horror, Halle pictured herself constantly on her bed, in a warm bath, a hot bath…under a hot shower. Yet here she was, practically paralyzed from exhaustion on her bed and waiting for an email. It was a bright Sunday morning, the best day of the week for Halle as she had absolutely nowhere to go, there were no classes or shifts at the Matten Bar. Everything should’ve been perfect and relaxing but Halle found her mind drifting as she brushed her teeth, as she took a shower, and put on her clothes, she still thought about checking her email. It had only been a few hours, Halle managed to get proper sleep but not nearly enough considering the amount of sleep she had already missed out on in the past week. Greta and Simon had left sometime in the early hours of the morning, she knew because she felt a peck on her cheek ad remembered the scent of roses, Greta’s favorite scent. She had
Xavier's Surrogate TOMORROW
Their coffees came before Halle could ask the thousand and one questions that were in her head. Marta stayed quiet, and elegantly she opened the cup of coffee that was brought in a ceramic china mug with a little lid on it and added two spoons of sugar to it, and stirred. It was only after she had put the spoon down and taken the first sip of coffee did she finally raise her head to look at Halle. Halle waited patiently, the steam coming from the mug in front of her warmed up her face and the scent of the coffee was strong, earthy...It was quality coffee, Halle could tell from the scent that assailed her nostrils and calmed her nerves. “Mr. Stone highly recommended you for this job Halle, but I had to do my research first and be sure you were the right choice, after all, this matter is of the utmost importance,” Martha said with a serious tone and then took another sip and let out a blissful sigh. “Is Mr. Stone the person in need of a surrogate?” Halle couldn’t help but ask, Martha
Xavier's Surrogate MAN-CHILD
“Do you think you’re better than the other girls who have worked their asses off to get here?” “Do you think you have any worth?” “You have no use, you’ll never have any worth!” “I have never loved you, you disgust me!” Halle woke up with a gasp and a choked cough. Her eyes were wide with panic and fear as she struggled to catch her breath and get her lungs to work properly. Her heart was pounding so fast that it was painful, her hand moved up to her chest as she groaned in agony, her clothes were drenched in sweat and even her forehead dripped sweat into her eyes. She looked around as she tried to catch her breath, rays of sunlight streamed through the curtains and it bounced off the white walls of her apartment and created a beautiful light. Her apartment. Yes, she was home. She was no longer in her country with her mother or the girls. She was home. Halle let out a shaky breath, her heart calming slightly as she kept looking around the bedroom, her eyes drinking in every d
Xavier's Surrogate LUXURY
The drive was long, the driver didn’t say a word to Halle in those three hours that they drove, instead, he kept his focused eyes on the road and didn’t spare her another glance. Was he shy or was he just a people person? Maybe both, Halle thought to herself. She spent the rest of the ride looking out the window, awed by the places they had passed and realizing just how little of the country she’s seen in the past three years she’s been here. There was almost no chance to do anything else though, with her crazy shifts and classes during the day time, the only days Halle knew she didn’t do anything were on Sundays and then she’d be too tired and lazy to go anywhere so she’ll spend her entire day on her bed. Today was a Sunday and here she was, on the road. They passed by skyscrapers, old buildings, and fancy neighborhoods, it didn’t take long for Halle to realize that they had left the capital, and strangely enough, she had expected that the Stones would live in the capital just li
