Monoma X Novels & Stories

She even recommended a shopping square nearby. My interest was piqued. The only shopping center I’d known of was the one I went to with Sarah. I had been wary of going back to that place, but then as we waited for the car to pull up, Maggie had suddenly informed me of a street—Mona Road—within a ten-minute drive of Xaden’s mansion, abundant with all the shops we could ever need. How wonderfully convenient. Xaden nodded with a hum. “It’s very popular among the capital,” he answered, adjusting the sleeves of his blazer. “Both residents and visitors alike frequent the area, so it rakes in a decent portion of our kingdom’s revenue.”

Noelle didn’t smile back and stepped back before disappearing into the mansion. She thought he would stay tonight but he did not find time. He had been busy since his warehouse burned down. He barely makes two hours for his family. Noelle walked down and entered Xavier’s room. He played with his stuffed toys and giggled. Her heart warms to see her baby boy happy. She scooped him off the floor and planted a motherly kiss on his head. Xavier would turn one next month but his father had no idea.

Little Nomi answered with her squeaky voice, corners of her mouth lifted with pride. Monique Xander’s face was blushed red within seconds. Her daughter was proudly showing her off. She drove and left hurriedly. Monique Xander was very rarely affected by men. She felt as if she was tossed around in a tornado. Perhaps that man’s aura was too strong. Looking at his call log, Henry Moore dialed his secretary’s number. “Monique Xander with phone number 181*****. Find out everything you can about this woman.”

He flashes a million-dollar smile, melting the woman into slush on the cold floor. "My name is Xavier, and this is Mona, my ma-" he begins, only to wince as I squeeze his hand in a death grip. "Well, hello Xavier," she smiles, her dull coal-black eyes shining as she absorbs his masculine features. "I've never seen you before. Are you new?" she asks, ignoring me completely. "Yes ma'am," he confirms, "Mona came with me to show me around the school." The fat lady finally turns her laser gaze to my form, her eyes crinkling as she takes me in.

My brother gave me a tight lipped smile. I notice some of my friends from university enter into the room, one of them even carrying a cake. A grin spread across my face as I stood up and hugged my friends- Ava, Mitchell and Ava's boyfriend Kendrick, they've been together since second year of Uni. Ava is a ballet instructor while Mitchell is a fashion designer, she specializes mainly in wedding dresses though. "I am so glad you guys could make it!" I squealed pulling my girls into another round of hug. "Happy birthday!"

Her eyes were fixed on the monitor, where Camila West was currently pacing the boardroom floor. Camila was a vision of calculated corporate power. She wore a striking, blood-red designer pantsuit, a stark contrast to the muted tones of Monroe Global's minimalist architecture. Her diamond studs caught the fluorescent light, and her posture was rigid with a supreme, unearned confidence. Following the explosive fallout at the gala, Camila had taken it upon herself to intercept the Monroe Global rejection. She wanted to prove to Helena Knight—and more importantly, to a distant, rebellious Xavier—that the West media machine could move mountains that the Knights couldn't.

"So I'll go first. My name's Brianna Quinn and am the CEO of B Architecture and interior designs. It feels like high school where we have to introduce ourselves. I'm Damien, am 16years old and I want to be an architect in future he said. He's name is Luca and he's 2 years old will be turning 3 in two weeks, Damien said pointing at a sleeping Luca. "Awwwwn, my baby is turning three. I gushed. "I'm Lisa and am 14 years old, I love fashion and I want to be a fashion designer in future. Lisa said. And she's Emma, she's six years old. Lisa said pointing to a shy Emma.

she muttered with a shudder, staring at the woman. "The name is Moni, not women, and things are changing" Moni said, she had been through this time and time again with Damon, every time they went to a new station it was the same story, it would take time but eventually they would be able to come to an agreement with the mixed blood. "Damon and I are here to reform the station. We will be implementing a lot of changes" she said, sighing at the look of skepticisms on both of their faces.

On the way home, Alex spotted an ice cream shop. Alex insisted on stopping by, but I was anxious about people. The news about Alex being an escort just came out and everybody's eyes are on us. People are waiting for our next move like hawks eyeing their prey. As much as I tried to convince Alex that we could just buy and leave, he wouldn't budge. He wanted to stay in the shop and eat inside.

I reply, mimicking her hand gestures and she laughs. We got talking more. Mona's uncle was the former Alpha's Gamma, and he's now part of the decision-making committee of elders in the pack. She is an Architect and an only daughter of her parents. She has worked with the Alpha on a couple of projects in the pack, including replanning, redesigning, and rebuilding the modern town center.
