We Have A Deal

XAVIER’S POVThe bastard couldn't stop smiling.Dean sat across the table with that smug look plastered across his bruised face like he had already won something, like ten percent of my shares suddenly made him king of the world.I wanted to wipe that smile off with my fist again.But Aria’s hand rested gently on my knee beneath the table, a silent warning I chose to respect.Sebastian adjusted his glasses and continued reading from the document in front of him like he hadn't just dropped a fucking bomb on my shares.“Now that the marriage between Mr. Xavier Weston and Mrs. Aria Weston has been legally confirmed,” he announced, “the records have been updated. As Mr. Weston’s wife, Mrs. Aria Weston is now entitled to shares in the company under her own name.”Aria’s hand tightened on my knee.I glanced at her briefly. Her expression remained composed, but I could feel the tension radiating off her small frame.“However,” Sebastian added carefully, “she will not be granted access to tho

My Lips On His

ARIA’S POVThe restroom door clicked shut behind me, and I exhaled for what felt like the first time since walking into this house.My reflection stared back at me from the mirror above the sink. I look pale, shaken, but still standing.I splashed cold water on my face and patted it dry with a soft towel, taking slow breaths to steady the chaos in my chest. Ten percent of Xavier's shares. Gone. Just like that. Because of a meeting he didn't attend.Because of me.I pressed my palms against the cool marble counter and forced myself to straighten.“You can fall apart later, Aria. Not here. Not in this house.” I muttered under my breath.After one last glance at my reflection, I pulled the door open and stepped into the hallway…… and immediately froze.Dean leaned against the wall directly across from the restroom door with his arms crossed, that bruised face twisted into something between a smirk and a snarl.My stomach turned.“Move,” I said flatly, stepping to the side.He shifted hi

Baby Making

XAVIER'S POVShock didn't even begin to cover how I feel right now.One moment, I was calculating exactly how many bones I could break before security pulled me off Dean. The next minute, her lips were on mine.I froze.Every thought in my head scattered like smoke in the wind. The anger, the tension, the desperate need to hurt someone… all of it vanished the second her lips pressed against mine.For one full minute, my brain refused to process what was happening.Aria. Kissing me. In my father's living room, with Dean watching. Then my brain finally caught up with my body.And I kissed her back.My hand slid from her face to the back of her neck, fingers threading gently through her hair as I tilted her head slightly… just enough to deepen the kiss. Just enough to feel her breath hitch against my lips.God.She tasted like vanilla and something I couldn't name but wanted to drown in.My other arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer until there was nothing between us. No s

Soundproof Walls

XAVIER'S POVThe moment I ended the call with Adrian, silence swallowed the room whole.I sat there for a long moment, staring at the dark screen of my phone, turning his words over in my head. Ian's name floated through my mind for a second, impossible to ignore.I debated calling him from a place like this. My office was in the heart of Weston Holdings, surrounded by executives, board members, and God knows how many ears could be listening. But then I remembered the walls. The soundproofing I had installed years ago, back when I first took over as the acting CEO. Back when I learned that secrets were currency and careless words could cost empires.So I decided against an audio call and went for a video instead. I needed to see his face for this conversation.The screen flickered once. Twice.Then Ian's face appeared.He was shirtless, hair disheveled, but still looking as handsome as ever. Not like he'd ever hear me say the word out loud.“You look like shit,” he muttered.I leaned

Bang! Bang!! Bang!!!

ARIA'S POVMoving into a new house has to be the hardest thing for me.The need to rearrange your closet, fix a lot of things just to have them to your satisfaction, the whole process is stressful as fuck. In a place like this, you could easily have the maids do stuff for you, but I’m not the type to have strangers touching my clothes and underwear. Besides, I couldn't get the help even if I needed it. Not after Xavier fired them all.So here I was, kneeling on the bedroom floor surrounded by half-empty suitcases and scattered clothes that Xavier bought for me, trying to remember which box contained my shoes. The penthouse felt too big now, way too quiet. Every empty hallway reminded me that I was the only person here.Halfway through unpacking, I stepped out of the room to get a bottle of water from the kitchen. The marble floors were cold beneath my bare feet as I walked past the empty living room barefooted, past the spot where the guards used to stand, past the silence that pres

Weston Hospital

XAVIER'S POVAfter some long days spent between those white walls, going back and forth after Ian's incident, I have come to detest hospitals. Everything about them. The smell, the lights, the way the air feels too clean and too cold at the same time, and the memories they bring.But in this situation, refusing to show up would only make it obvious that I dislike Isabella. Which I have no plans to hide. My feelings toward her are no secret. Still, there are battles worth picking and battles worth setting aside for later.This was the latter.I picked up my cellphone from the office desk and dialed Reed’s line. He picked up before the end of the first ring.“Get in my office.”“Yes, sir.”Less than a minute later, a soft knock came at the door. Reed stepped inside with his notepad already in hand.“You called for me.”“We’re heading to the hospital.” I stood and grabbed my suit jacket from the back of the chair. “Isabella woke up.”He simply nodded. “I'll clear your morning schedule.”

The Contract

ARIA'S POV“Do I have to wait longer to hear what you have to say?” My gaze locked on Isa where she sat propped against the hospital pillows. The machines beside her beeped softly, monitoring whatever life still flowed through her veins. The room smelled like antiseptic and flowers, too many flowers, the kind people send when they feel guilty for not visiting sooner.“Not everyone can endure the smell of a hospital, Isabella.”She tilted her head, studying me like I was a specimen beneath a microscope. “How does it feel,” she started slowly, “to be arrested and interrogated for attempted murder?”I crossed my arms. “How does it feel to lose a child that doesn’t belong to your so-called partner?”“ARIA!”Her scream echoed off the white walls.I knew it was low. I knew I had crossed a line. But she needed to feel the pain as much as I was carrying. She needed to understand that words could cut both ways.Her chest heaved, and both hands trembled against the blanket. But I didn’t flinch

Would You Let Me Go?

XAVIER’S POV The moment those words left her mouth, the entire hospital room fell into a suffocating silence. The kind that slowly wraps around your neck and tightens.I stared at her quietly from the hospital bed, almost convinced the exhaustion was finally getting to me again.Because there was no way the same woman who had been sleeping on my chest barely two nights ago was now sitting beside my hospital bed asking to leave me.Aria kept her eyes fixed on those hands resting on her lap, nervously twisting her fingers together.She could not even look at me.That somehow made it worse.The steady beeping of the monitor beside me echoed through the room while rain tapped softly against the hospital windows.I finally leaned back against the bed slowly, my jaw tightening.“Say that again.”“Xavier, you heard…”“Say it, Aria!”Her throat bobbed nervously.“I think…” she paused briefly before forcing herself to continue, “I think we should end the contract.”I watched her carefully, tr

What Have You Done?

XAVIER'S POV“Sir, you can't leave.”Reed blocked my path with his arms spread wide, standing between me and the door like a human barricade. His face was calm, but I saw the tension in his jaw.“You of all people shouldn’t do this.” I grabbed the hospital-issued shirt and yanked it over my head. “You know how I feel about hospitals.”His expression softened for a second. Just a flicker of understanding beneath the professional mask.“But still, you can’t leave.” He didn’t move. “You've only been in that bed for barely a day.”I pulled the IV needle from my arm and ignored the small bead of blood that welled up at the site. The antiseptic smell was suffocating. The white walls were closing in. Every beep from the machine sounded like a fucking countdown.I threw off their annoying shirt and reached for the pants.“So what? You're going to stand there and watch me pull off my pants?”Reed shrugged. “It wouldn't be the first time I've seen you naked, would it?”“You little…”The door op

Why Go That Far?

ARIA'S POVThe sky was still dark when I crept out of my room at six in the morning. Sleep had been impossible since we came back. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Xavier on that hospital bed, pale and weak, his fingers cold around mine.I needed coffee. Strong coffee. And maybe ten minutes of silence before the world started demanding things from me again. The kitchen lights were already on when I stepped out. I stopped in the doorway, blinking against the brightness.Reed stood at the counter with his back turned to me, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, a knife in one hand and an onion in the other. His movements were awkward, like he had never held a knife before in his life.Tears streamed down his face. From the onion, I hoped.I cleared my throat nervously. “Good morning.”His head snapped up. The knife clattered against the cutting board when he saw me.“Morning, ma’am.” He wiped his eyes with the back of his wrist. “I'm sorry for using your kitchen…”“No, it's fine.” I stepp
