Tao Xu Heartstopper の小説・ストーリー

Not wanting to waste any time, I walk over to the lobby's receptionist desk. The sooner I get this over with, hopefully, the better. "Good day. Welcome to Xavier's Enterprises. My name is Tara Hall. How may I assist you today?" a blonde behind the counter asks, popping her unnatural red lips. Her blue eyes scans the lobby as she fixes her tight white blouse. "I'm Zoey Saunders and I'm here to see Xavier. He's expecting me." I ignore the blonde's obvious disapproval of my choice of outfit as her eyes briefly turn from the lobby to me.

Her nails pierced her skin, leaving tracks of fresh blood. Xander climbs through to the back, trying to hold her hands back as he shouts at me to drive faster. She throws her body around, thrashing herself against him. Suddenly just stopping. Everything was silent. She had completely frozen. No screams, no growls. Even the thud of her heart was slow. Too slow. We were a few minutes away from the hospital when her heart stopped completely. The pain in my chest giving it away “Jaxon.” Xander whispers from the back.

Who says I'm not dating because I still have my heart set on Ryan? ‘No, that’s bullsh*t!’

Xavier raised his voice. No one knew about Xavier's wife and kids, not even his father and brother before they died. Xavier met his wife when he went on a mission in the Vancouver Island, there he fell in love with her and married her. He loved her so much that he decided to keep his little family a secret to protect them from the dangers of rival gangs but Lorenzo somehow managed to know to about them. Pablo loosened the chain off Alexa feet and handed him over to Lorenzo’s men who carried his unconscious body away from the scene.

Tania whispered sultrily, the air from her mouth hitting my lips as we were about to kiss. She stuck her tongue out to lick me but I shoved her away, not just because Zara was away and I could end this show but because Hector was in immense pain. “Argh! Back off, back off, Xander! Why the fuck would you torment me to death, huh?” My wolf screamed in my head. “Tania,” I said uneasily, shoving her away. She was confused seeing me turning pale. I swallowed hard as I said, “I am feeling thirsty.”

He was trying to outsmart me. I hadn’t signed the alliance request Nadine sent with Arlo a few weeks ago. Not that I didn’t want to. I just wanted to get on Nadine’s nerves. I told her last time if she wanted the alliance, she had to see me. Of course, I was the least of her priorities with the many things she needed to do. But Xander knew what to say to make me sign it sooner. I didn’t reply right away. I was still contemplating the right answer, but after a brief silence, Xander spoke again. “I know just the right candidate to help you. A lesbian, so I’m sure she won’t catch feelings. And she’s aware that werewolves exist.”

The pain caused her body to convulse. Rob fumbled desperately to staunch the flow, his eyes wide with panic. "Call an ambulance, now! Do you even realize how serious this is? She is the richest woman, and you let an actress hurt her? Aren't you afraid she'll follow through and refuse to marry you after all?" Savannah's smile widened, cold and predatory. "If you love her that much, be a pair of love birds in hell!"

But I saw his dark cold eyes which have the kind of power to give chills to my spin. He scoffed as he touched my cheeks, the cheeks where tears trailing down from my eyes. My action was quick to pull away from his touch, feeling shivers creeping up my spins but he took a step further to me and his deep cologne hovered over my sense. His next demand made my anger boiled in my system like a lava boiling under the erupting volcano. “Be my secret lover, Angel.”
