Chapter 131 - Colossal failure

Xavier clenched his hand inside his sweatshirt pocket as he glared at his phone wondering if the man who had sent him this text had plans to show up. The guts, he thought to himself reading the text once again:  (Unknown number): Hey I'm the guy that might end up landing your girl if you don't get your head out of your ass. I'm not the enemy but you have one. Let's meet. Text me the address of where is suitable to you but mind you it must be in a public space. I hope your feelings are not hurt but it is quite understandable why I can't trust you.  Immediately his phone had lit up and he had read the message, he didn't need a soothsayer to tell him who was behind the text also known as the motherboard of his problems.   He had wanted to just block the number or delete the messages angrily but he had decided to talk it out with him rather because although he had been a diesel to make whatever he had with Maya burn faster, he was not the arch

Chapter 132 - Money could buy anything

"I'm going to help you get Maya back not because you deserve her but she deserves to be happy."   Xavier snorted hoping that Jared was aware that he was not just going to take his words for it at face value because if he did, then he must be frickin delusional.   "How can I trust you? Believe that this isn't some elaborate plan with your big dipshit of your best friend. Like you both have been really tight for years, so how do you want me to believe you are really fucking him over and you are not fucking with me right now?"   Jared chuckled, he had seen the big whys coming. Whys he had even asked himself. Why help Xavier get the girl when if he tried hard enough there were possibilities he might sneak his way into Maya's life especially now she was vulnerable and weak? but he didn't want love to make him a bad guy, he wanted it to make him a better person just like it had, Xavier. Besides he was of the school of thought that if s

Chapter 133 - It is his words against mine

"Then you need to come off this guilt. You're too overgrown to keep on dwelling on something you didn't have any control over. You couldn't have told that Diane would leave the car and be run over. It was simply not your fault," he shook his head, a sad smile on his face "You asked what I stand to gain from all of this? I'm also hoping that you both can just let go and live. Tyler too blames himself for what had happened. He had been responsible for driving Diane home after all but he had been with some now faceless blonde chick."   Xavier averted his gaze from him, "Blaming you have been Tyler's only way to get through his sister's death and it had been easy, filled him with a purpose to destroy you and I'd supported him for a while because I didn't want to hurt my best friend, but now this is unhealthy and his obsession to hurt you is becoming scary. I might not want to take Maya from you but she would slip through your fingers if you don't act wise and fast. The

Chapter 134 - Punish the man she love

Punish the man she love"But why didn't you tell me all this while?" She had asked in pure confusion.   "This is a secret everyone had begged me to keep in wraps for years, hope you can now understand why I was so horrified to find out you both were engaged. It didn't feel right. I tried to warn you subtly, but you were blinded by your love for him to understand."   Maya had looked over her shoulder, immensely grateful that the girls had taken the initiative to disappear, even as she felt completely at odds with this piece of information she wasn't sure she was ready to share yet.   "So you had just let your only sister's murderer go unpunished?" she swallowed hard knowing that she was suggesting that he punished the man she loved. The man who could be a murderer. She swallowed hard again. Fuck.  "The odds were against me. Do you know how powerful the Salvadors are?" Her gaze narrowed as she remembered how Ann

Chapter 135 - Without him

"Are you alright?" Tyler asked her, concern in his eyes as she screwed up her line for the umpteenth time. They were on the terrace and according to the script she was supposed to tell him a story about her that would inspire a song.   She unscrewed the cork of the bottled water one of the members of the crew provided her with and hurriedly gulped the whole content. She stood up from the cold slab where she sat with Jared resisting the urge to yell and ask him how he expected her to be fine, but no thanks, she didn't want to trend on social media as the newest added member of the deranged patient in NYC, she thought drily as she removed the microphone on her body and steadily walked out of the room ignoring Tyler as he called her repeatedly.   She had thought she could do it, work and pretend like her life was in order but she had been kidding herself. She felt suffocated like she was burning inside of her and was not expected to shout, was dying

Chapter 136 - Maybe because I'm in love with you

He stepped closer and she couldn't help but noticed that something has changed about him, it had nothing to do with his surprisingly wrinkled clothes or how humbled his eyes were. A one o clock stubble seemed strange on his perfectly shaven jaw and his eyes seemed almost dead, she choked on her spit horrified although the realization that he could be ruffled made him look less god and more like a man. A human.    He took another step forward and she could see his ruffled hair where his hand must have been on so many times in exasperation, frustration, or both. The tight line of his lips. The leaves on his shoes. The matching sleeping bags under his eyes yet somehow he looked devastatingly handsome and it felt unfair that he didn't even need to try at all to look that way.     She took a step backward as he took another and he stopped. "Please Maya, don't go away," he begged and tears burn her eyes at the pleading tone in his voice. The Xavier

Chapter 137 - Wherever I go

"Where is Maya and how is she doing?" Tyler immediately asked Jared the minute he stepped into the Hall.   The interior decorator was already removing the wallpaper and things in place they had used in making a part of the room look like a balcony and he was glad Tyler had spared him the stress of spelling out what they both knew already.   Maya was in no mental or physical state to perform today and till further notice and it was only because of him, Tyler, and his stupid obsession with revenge.   "If I didn't know better I'd have thought you cared for her and do not see her only as an important pawn in your plan to achieve your devious plan."   Tyler looked hurt by his words and took a step backward like they were physical weapons because they did have the same impact of wounding him though not physically.  "You know I do care about Maya. You know that."   "Do I?" Jared hoarsely

Chapter 138 - Morphing into a sadist

Morphing into a sadist"Where is Maya?" Jared rushed towards him but he shook his head slightly.   "She left. She left me." His words expressed raw pain but his eyes were blank, empty, cold. Jared recoiled. Now, this was the Xavier he had seen in high school, the golden boy that was rumored to be tortured.  Tyler chuckled heartily but if Xavier heard him he didn't show. He slightly pushed Jared from his road and brought out his car keys, disengaged its alarm, and slowly walked towards it.   "That's it?" Jared howled. Steam came out of his mouth even as he readjusted the neck scarf around his neck. The weather was way cold and it was suddenly becoming icy as Xavier turned to look at him. His eyes were blank, all emotions drained. He didn't look worried, helpless, happy, or sad. He didn't feel anything.    "She doesn't want me." He curtly replied and then opened his car door.   Jared watch

Chapter 139 - Loving the sound of his laughter

Two months later."I fulfilled the part of your request by not letting anyone know where you are but don't you think it is time to fulfill mine."    Maya sighed softly even as she remembered that day she had run back home to grab a change of clothes unaware of where she was heading but knew she needed to get away. Ashley as usual has probed and asked, always curious and she didn't know when she had broken apart and told her she needed to get away.   No questions asked Ashley had handed her keys to a condo in Boston and although she was tempted to ask her how she had an apartment there or why she didn't make there her residential area, she also didn't want to ask questions seeing that Ashley didn't.   She had ran and hidden away wanting to sort her thoughts and had made Ashley promise not to tell anybody where she was.   She adjusted her body on the Queen size bed, remembering how surprised she had be

Chapter 140 - Once upon a time

6 seconds.  That was how long she had stared at her reflection in the mirror before packing her things hurriedly in a duffel bag, calling a cab, and heading back home.   Once upon a time, someone had once told her that whenever you get to a point in life and you can't look at your reflection in the mirror without looking away then you need to know you're being untrue to even yourself.   She couldn't remember who had told her those words perhaps her mom or one of her friends but all that didn't matter, all that did was that she had hidden for too long and cried hard too. She needed to start being true to herself. She owes herself that much she thought.  It was raining when Maya arrived at the penthouse she shared with the girls. The house was locked and even though she knew that a spare key was kept under the foot mat just in case, she couldn't bring herself to use it.   It felt wrong disappearing for wee
