A knock from the door abruptly brought her out of dreamland. She flicked her eyes open, yawning tiredly as she tried to process what had transpired.The knock persisted and it took Amelia quite some time to get up and open the door. Her beauty sleep was just interrupted and that was something she loathed. Having been through a lot that day and the previous, what she needed most precisely was rest and she wasn't getting it. All thanks to whoever was at the door.Breathing out sharply, she lifted her hand to the door, twisting the doorknob, and opened it up. Mrs. Rebecca was revealed and Amelia kept her anger in check. If it had been Xavier, she wouldn't have given him a piece of her mind."Mrs. Rebecca" she called out and immediately a yawn escaped from her lips once more which motioned to Rebecca that she was quite tired."I'm sorry for disturbing ma'am, but sir Xavier demanded you have lunch together with him". Rebecca said and Amelia fought the urge not to surge into anger.It was c

The message stayed there and when she finally tapped on it to view the content, her heart abruptly stopped."IT IS A MISTAKE TO FANCY THAT HORROR IS ASSOCIATED INEXTRICABLY WITH DARKNESS, SILENCE AND SOLITUDE"Amelia forgot how to breath for a second as she occasionally kept looking around to see if someone was there with her, but there was none.There was only one person capable of doing something like that and she feared the worse. Different thoughts kept going to and fro in her head, but one was greater, fear.Her lips trembled, her hands were shaky, her mind was not at rest and nose importantly, Xavier wasn't home and that was what made her more scared. No matter hard she tried to convince herself otherwise, the truth remained the same, she genuinely felt safer in Xavier hand.Her phone beeped again and she jolted, almost tossing the phone in the process. It was yet another message and the thought of what it might contain made a huge lump to secure it's place in her throat and tea

Did she hate the idea, hell yes? Did she have a choice, no? Amelia sat at the back with her arms folded and a glare on her face. Cosmos sat at the back and the bodyguard who she had never seen before, sat at the front, and the silence in the car was daring.All thanks to Xavier who wouldn't let her go out on her own as though she was still a youngster who was still under the tight shell of their parents.One thing was sure, even if he compelled her to go with them, she knew within her that she wasn't going to return with them. It was ridiculous and she was going to show Xavier that he couldn't boss her around any chance he got. Her naughty self chuckled slyly at the thought and her daring self saluted it.The drive didn't take as long and they finally halted at Peter's house after of course giving them the needed directions it took to get to his house.Cosmos halted the car and Amelia rushed out as soon as the car took a break. She didn't want any scrutiny and part of it was having t

Xavier shoved her towards the wall, trapping her with his hand. She gasped as her eyes widened, looking at him directly in his eyes. One thing was certain, his eyes held lust. It was quite apparent. He glanced at her for a while as if unsure of what to do, but when he finally got it, his eyes left her eyes and landed on her lip. Amelia gulped. The thought of what he was about to do evolved Butterflies in her and she couldn't seem to stop it. Something in her yearned for his lips against hers.He slowly began to descend to her level and without warning, placed his lips on hers. For a second, everything stopped. Amelia still tried to process what was happening. She couldn't think of much, but she was sure that his soft lips against hers was something she genuinely craved for. With time, the shock was over and she returned the kiss with her lips gliding against his. He inserted his tongue into her mouth, wiggling it inside and Amelia could already feel the heat course through her body. He

Amelia was right, he shouldn't worry more. The words calmed him down a bit and he wondered how she was apt to do that by just saying it.He was indeed right when he said she had powers in her, and that gave her the capability to do whatever unimaginably affected him. Her smile stirred something in him. Her playful scowl was found adorable by him and her tears tore him on the inside. One thing was sure, he never bargained for all these emotions when he signed the contract. The only thing on his mind at that point was how to get Hardik and also back at Martin, but now it felt as though the original motive wasn't what kept him in the marriage anymore. Something else did and he didn't want to admit it to himself. *********************************Xavier breathed out sharply before raising his hand to the door, he tried to knock, but couldn't. It was hard and it felt as though his hand was not his anymore. He dropped it, took deep breaths, then decided to try again.He raised his hand
