Chapter 12I gasped as I got pulled. The water drenched my clothes and my nipples were peeking hard outside the fabric, making it visible. I looked down at my clothes. Mute.My blonde hair got drenched too and just like the way Xavier looked, it was my turn to look like that. I waved my hair to the side, water splashing on that face of his.Xavier’s face was blank. Before I could think, he twisted me round. Now I am backing him, my left arm all the way to my back. My soaked swimming trunk having contact with his bare chest. He traced his hands from my shoulders slowly to my hips. I jolted when he hauled me up against him.He swept my hair to the side. I could feel his breath fanning my neck, this sent an unexplainable shivering shiver down my spine. Not knowing what was happening. Deep down I loved the way my body reacted to him; emphasizing that we both had effect on each other.It is completely mutual.Slowly the shiver began to dissipate and I felt ease. He was no longer on my nec

What was he going to say? Is he fine? Soon I found myself standing before him in the room. He was looking at the lights that were visible across all buildings. He noticed my presence, before turning to me ‘Your phone’ He stretched forth his hands. ‘Hmmm. What for?’ ‘Did you get any text?’I narrowed my eyes at him, folding my hands together ‘What text? I didn’t receive any’ Fuck. I wanted to let him ask more questions, but I just answered his question straight up seeing the look on his face. He pulled me into a hug and I wondered what was happening. I tapped on his back slightly, so he moved, his eyes meeting mine. What the hell was wrong with him? One minute he was this way and in the next minute he was that way. 'Is everything okay?' I asked him. 'Hmm. Yeah, it seems so. I know you might be wondering why I am acting this way, but..... You don't need to worry about it. I am just going through some hard phases right now.I don't want to pull you into it' I stared into his eye

I mouthed an ‘Ah!’ before I knew it, closing my mouth immediately the sound escaped. I aimed at grabbing Xavier by the arm, trying my best not to make what I was going to do very obvious.I finally grabbed his arm. He threw a glance at me first, then back to my hand holding him. I looked back at mother-in-law and father-in-law, trying to give him an eye sign- sign language, but nothing was helpful.But to my surprise they didn’t say anything. Both of them already had their forks in their hands, ready to dig in and devour the food that laid patiently on the long table. I pulled him, but he didn’t move an inch.I looked over the table again, mother-in-law and father-in-law were already eating as though nothing had happened. Like their son hadn’t just disrespected them.Xavier sat down finally. I noticed Father-in-law adjust his glasses.I felt the whole tension, it seemed unusual. The air now felt thick around me.I whispered in his ears ‘What did you just do? Apologize to them now’.

‘Is it because you said you don’t want to have children? You don’t need to worry I am on pills’ I pushed further.He began to retreat.‘Okay, just kiss me one more time’ I said, getting out of the water and he stopped on his track, walking back to me.I closed my eyes waiting for another kiss, but instead I was lifted off the ground.‘That’s enough’ He muttered.Water trailed behind us, leaving his foot print on the ground.‘I will be heading out.’ He brought me back to my feet when we reached inside the mansion, and with that he walked off. He didn’t turn around at all. Not even one more time.I sighed as I watched him climb up the stairs. What was holding him back? I couldn’t believe it was already four days after our wedding and we haven’t been intimate. It’s killing me.I knew sex wasn’t what made a marriage blissful neither was it what made a successful marriage- it was love, trust and many other characteristics. So, I wasn’t really bothered. I was willing to wait, but I am huma

‘The doctor is demanding for more money’ Racheal said, no strength in her voice at all.I looked at Xavier and he nodded his head. I told him a thank you, before speaking to Racheal too ‘I’m on my way, Racheal. Stay calm. Text me the address of the hospital’Xavier made just one call and everything was arranged. He drove the car.I was losing my patience and my heart raced very fast. And I mean so fast. I can’t remember when my heart thumped so loud. I couldn’t imagine the state Racheal was in ‘ Driver faster, Xavier. ‘Faster’ I muttered trying to make him speed up.He increased the speed, but was still careful enough to watch other incoming vehicles. He also stayed on his lane, so as not to attract the police or any other authorities that could come in our way. No even when we were in a hurry, and they wouldn’t understand.We drove to the police post. They stopped us so they could do their search. My eyes flicked to the man waving out his hand to us.After checking the booth of the
