Chapter 53 & 54.
The men picked mrs lewis by the hand and began to pull her down the staircase.
” Stop!. I said…stop!” She ordered as the men pulled her along.
The men didn’t listen to her. They continued to push her until they were at the front verandah of the house.
The chaffeur told the men to free her for a while and they obliged, stepping a little farther from her. she ru-bbed her hands wincing in pain.
The men hands were very strong on her and it rendered her scars while she was trying to struggle with them.
” I don’t blame the fools who live in this house. Some of them are forgetting that this is my son’s house.”
” Son’s house?. The one whom you called wretched and end up ill treating his wife?”
“He is still my son, mrs qin. I still cherish him like every other mother.” She said.
Mrs qin curled her li-ps into her mouth, holding her wai-st. She didn’t know what to say about her.
How can a mother have hatred for his son and still pretend like she never did?.
” I don’t blame you. I blame the nuts that had been screwed out of your head. You are definitely leaving this compound before the morning sun breaks in the day”
” Of course I’d leave. Afterall, i said I’d come to stay just for a week. The week is over now and i think it’s time I’ll return to my den. But let me tell you.”
” Tell me. You can go ahead and speak the whole of your life story.” Mrs qin said folding her hands.
Mrs lewis sighed and stepped forward, squinting her eyes at her.
” By the time I’m out of this house, I’m not just going to be more dangerous, but I’m cunningly enough to act at anytime.” She said.
” And do you know the best part, mrs lewis. No one is scared of you. No one is bothered if you set up a gang of robbers around this vicinity. Everyone in this house are together now, try any sort of ru-bbish and you’re dead”
” You wouldn’t be alive to witness my death, mrs qin. Cuz you are mostly my first target then I’ll come for your daughter.” Mrs lewis said.
” I wish you goodluck in the preparation and I’ll gladly wait for that day you’ll come back.” She said.
” You better do because_”
” Oh…” mrs qin cut her off, checking her wrist watch. ” Your time limit to talk here is over. Guards, take her out quickly.”
The men approached her quickly and tried to grab her.
” Don’t touch me, i can walk on my own!. I said Don’t lay a finger on me or you’ll regret it!.” She hissed.
The men left her and she wined herself towards her black limo in the compound. Her luggages were brou-ght and pulled out for her.
Mrs qin went over to the room she left behind and locked up the windows and curtains faintly.
She brou-ght up the holy water.
” i don’t trust that woman. She is a big witch herself. She can’t come and initate this kids for me. Her plan will not work in our life” she said as she squirted it around the room.
She cleaned her palm with a towel and walked out, slamming the door hard.
….
AMY’S OFFICE.
Vixen walked into Amy’s office and met Amy climbing a tall stool, searching throu-ghher cabinet.
He tripped towards her office table and leaned himself there.
” i need a new file.” He suddenly stunted and Amy heels quirked, making her loose balance immediately.
Vixen quickly caught her body before she could reach the ground. Her bracelet making a torn on his li-p.
Amy stared at him with wide eyes and he looked back at with the same expression, with a mix of suprise. They remained like that literally lost and speechless.
” Are you okay?” Vixen broke the silence.
” Ouch!” Amy winced, grabbing her wounded foot. He helped her to sit on her table.
” You have to be really careful, Amy. You just had a bloody scratch on your toes” He said as he gently pulled off her heels.
” Why did you barge into my office like that?” She asked, folding her hands.
” I actually feel knocking is lame” He said with a sm-irk.
Amy gazed down and met her eyes at his full li-ps.
” What are you looking at?” He asked and she quickly raised her chin.
” Uh?” She blinked.
” I mean.. Your toes…they are bleeding.” Vixen said, holding his wai-st as he stared at it.
” Ohhh.” She grumbled, grabbing her little bleeding toe. She looked at vixen with a puppy eyes.
” Fine. I’ll take care of it.” He said, rolling his eyes.
There was a first aid kit in the cabinet. He picked it up but Amy insisted on doing it herself.
” No. It’s my fault you fell. I’ll help you with it.” He said and opened up the kit.
” What are you doing in my offices anyways?” She asked, grabbing hold of the table behind as he meddled on her feet.
“I wanted to ask for some files.” He said and increa-sed the pressure of the cotton on her toes.
” Ouch!” Amy winced.
” Oh sorry. My fingers are not usually kind.” He laughed and covered her wound with a little bandage.
He helped to slid her shoes into her leg.
” Your legs fit into your shoe perfectly just like that of cinderella.” He said and Amy laughed.
She stared at his li-ps again.
” Your li-ps. Its bleeding too.” She pointedand vixen palmed his li-ps. He looked at his palm and saw blood.
” Is that why you were staring at it?”
” Um. Maybe.” She giggled. She picked the first aid kit and helped him as well.
” Is the injury that bad?” He asked as she kept dotting the cotton on it.
” I think so. Let me see it clearly” She said and pulled his chin closer, staring at his li-ps with all the focus in the world.
Vixen stared at her face as it inched closer and closer to him. Her suppled li-ps were pink and plump like that of a heart shaped.
The more she inched closer, the more images of him grabbing those li-ps quickly into his mouth had left him suffocated. He had never felt his heart beat any fas-ter.
He quickly pulled her off.
” How was it?” He asked taking a long, stiff breath to catch himself back.
” Um, Nop. I couldn’t see anything. I don’t think it’s quite severe anyways.” She said.
She brou-ght up the babdage and focused on covering his li-p while vixen couldn’t get his eyes off her anymore.
He stared at her like a calm pet waiting for when it would ravage into a monster.
She was done. She patted it a little.
” You can take it off before noon. It’s just a random injury.” She said and he nodded.
She came down the table and picked a new file from her table. She stretched it to him.
” Have this.” She said.
” Oh. Thanks.” He smiled. He tried to walk away but something hit him ha-rd in his che-st, holding him back.
He turned to meet Amy who was wondering what was going on.
He held his li-p.
” Ouch!. Aww…this li-p hurt like damn! There’s something wrong with it. You need to check it please.” He begged.
Amy raised her brows. She had never seen vixen behave all wierdly like this.
She pulled out the bandage from his li-p and inched up her feet trying to know what exactly went wrong with it.
Vixen eye’s turned tender as he felt her breath scorch next to his eyes. Her pink cheeks, li-p and eyes were making his heart race fas-ter again.
He found his arms up and it gently rested on her wai-st, and at once, he pulled her closer.
” Huhh!” Amy gasped looking at him with wide bulged out eyes.
” What are you doing!. Are you sane or something!” She yelled.
He su-cked in his breath, resting his forehead on hers.
” I still miss you, Amy. I guess you never realised it all this while” He said still staring at her tenderly.
” The way i stare at you around xan in the house. The day of your wedding when i had to use an earpods just to keep myself strong. Didn’t you notice?”
Amy gulped down nothing as she stared at him. She could feel her heartbeat run miles in her che-st.
She bit her li-ps hard. His words mustn’t get to her this way. She grabbed his arm, trying to pull him away.
” What’s gotten into your head!. Get your hands off me, widow!.”
” Your voice is only teasing me the more, Alicia.” He said, smiling decisively.
He instantly inched closer to her face and their li-ps brushed against eachother. He grabbed her li-ps gently and began to nibb-le and su-ck on them gently.
His heart raced fas-ter as he kis-sed her. The li-ps in his imagination had finally come alive. He kis-sed her, pinning her to himself and Amy became weak.
His li-ps was transforming her into another sort.
” Vixen. I’m married.” She mumbled inbetween his kis-ses. Vixen instantly stopped and moved back quickly staring at her.
He tugged his hair as he faced the large window behind him, crushing his palm on the wall.
” God!. God!. What was i thinking!” He yelled, hitting his fist continously.
He heaved bitterly and swallowed, turning to look at the ceiling.
” I’m sorry Amy. I…i..didn’t know what got into me. I’m literally suprised with myself.” He said and turned to face her.
She was looking everywhere but him, with a concerned and guilt face.
” I’m so sorry…” He said again.
” It’s okay. I can relate as well.” She said, ru-b-bing her pale arms.
” My mom once told me my past will surely come back for me if i decide to live with the past. I guess she wasn’t wrong afterall.” She said, curling her li-ps into her mouth.
Vixen leaned on the wall, pocketing his arms.
” i still think there’s nothing like your first love.” He said and smiled at her sadly.
He heaved a rou-ghsigh and walked up to her, hugging her ti-ghtly.
” I’m sorry. Just forget about what just happened, okay?” He asked and she nodded.
He picked up his files and left her office afterwards.
Amy fell her bu-tt on her chair as she grabbed her hair ti-ghtly, feeling like her world was trying to trash her down again.
****
*NOON*BOARDROOM.
Amy is going around the gigantic room. Everyone is silent as they stared at her.
” The boss is hosting a party for the succession we achieved so far in the company after getting a million dollar contract” Amy said.
The whole staffs burst their arms into an applause, causing a smile to appear on Amy’s cheek.
Xan told her she would speak today to the audience and she had been making some silly stage rehearsal with katrina.
Right now, being the center of attention with her sweet spoken voice, she felt like the star of the day.
Talking to crowds now was feeling much easier than she had thought.
” It would be hosted at the popular five star hotel and each staff will be given a ticket to get in, just for security purpose.” She said and the crowds began to mumur about the popular five star hotel.
It was owned by the royals and only rich influencing people came to host their party there.
” Ahem!” She coughed, clearing the noise. ” It’s a formal party not a club house. Everyone must be dressed in their dinner gown and co-cktails suit.”
She stopped moving around and she faced the audience.
” Any questions concerning this party?” She asked and not even a cricket sounded.
” Okay, for the final announcement. Our boss here, the director of this company, is having his wedding going on this Sunday.” She said with a smile.
Everyone clapped again. This time there was joy in the air, splendour and amusement.
Amy turned to look at vixen with a smile but he returned it with a sad, heartbreaking frown, lowering his head to look at his papers.
She threw a concerned look at him and curled her li-ps up. Xan sque-ezed his eyes at her, noticing the tension going on between the two.
He stood up, placing his hand behind his back.
” So that’s all for now. You can all return to your duties. I wish you guys, goodluck.” He said and everyone stood up from the chair, mummering with noises as they left.
Xan walked up to Amy and tapped her shoulder before walking past her. She looked at vixen one more time while following xan out of the room.
He arrived outside the boardroom and they took the stairs instead of the elevator.
” What happened to vixen. He je-rked when you talked about his wedding.” He said as he casually stepped down the stairs like a prince.
” I…i…don’t know what happened either. He seems so off since morning.” She replied, pouting her li-ps up.
” I saw the way he looked at you. I didn’t like it.” He said and Amy paused in the stairs, staring at him in amusement.
She quickly rushed towards him to share the same walking pace.
” What do you mean by that?” She asked.
” I’m crazy right?” He asked with a devilish sm-irk on his cheek.
” Are you trying to say you are jealous?” She asked.
Xan was the one to stop this time. He swooped his feet and turned to face her.
” What do you mean by jealous. There’s absolutely nothing to be jealous about. I just didn’t like the way he stared at you” He said.
” Fine. I don’t want to argue about anything” She rolled her eyes and walked past him.
Xan stepped towards her and grabbed her by her wrist, pulling her down the stairs.
She winced from pain of her wounded toe and before she knew, he was down in his office.
He took her in to his office, slammed the door and pinned her on it.
” Amy listen up. I don’t fall into jealousy but No one deserves to stare at you like that. It boils me up, especially if it’s vixen.” He said and Amy could only blink.
He pinched her chin.
” I hope you un-derstand that you are mine. You are mine!” He said.
He slammed his li-ps on her, kis-sing her so de-eper and rou-ghthat Amy was failing to process her thought.
His tongue raveled like a moster, su-cking her whole throat to the extent that Amy could taste a faint of blood.
He drew out his li-ps, p@n-ting heavily as he stared at her. His eyes was glittering with nothing but lost.
She was breathing like she was just choked but graced to survive.
He threw her skirt up, pulling her legs around his wai-st as he pinned her palm to the door and kis-sed her har-der .
Amy moa-ned as tears we-t up her lids. He broke the kis-s still breathing heavily.
He stared at her eyes and his breath got stunted the moment he saw his wife sobbing silently.
” Amy..” He held her cheeks, forming a big frown.
She pouted her li-ps, shutting her eyes as the tears finally went down like ripples.
” You were so ha-rd on me.” She said as she sobbed.
Xan grabbed her cheeks and gently kis-sed off the tears in her eyes.
” Damn!. I’m so sorry. I was caught up in my emotion. I’m sorry sweetheart.” He said and kis-sed her eye again.
She sniffed and climbed down his body.
” Promise me you won’t be this ha-rd again?” She asked and xan held his che-st, promising her.
She rested her head on his che-st.
” I love you.” She said.
” I LOVE you more than the daybreaks.” He said and kis-sed her hair.
…..
Xan’s BEDROOM.
Amy walked into Xan’s room with a pillow on her wai-st. She smi-rked playfully.
” Mom said i shouldn’t sleep here. I should go to vixen’s room” She said stubbornly.
” There’s no space here. You can definitely Find somewhere else or go use the other rooms.” He said blankly while staring at the ceiling.
She threw her pillows on his head and xan laughed, noticing her prickly potty belly.
” The kids are maturing already?” He asked .
” I think so. I’ve never prayed for much. It seems like the doc was so wrong” She said ru-b-bing her stiff ha-rd belly.
She happily went to sit next to him in bed.
” Hubby. I can’t wait to go to tomorrow’s party.”
” Don’t worry, it’s gonna be legit.” He said.
” Do you think so?. This is my first official party” she said
” Congratulations then. You are going to love it, trust me.” He winked at her se-xily, ru-b-bing her belly and feeling his child.
” I’m glad your mom left. I don’t feel scared to spend time with you anymore. I feel more secured now” she said.
” I’m afraid she might come back. We need to be very careful now, especially with our numerous outing. My mom is a total green snake.” He said and Amy heaved a tiresome sigh
She stopped and palmed her stomach in pain.
” Ouch.” She winced.
Xan leaned up and looked at her perplexed. He pats her hair, kis-sing her li-ps faintly.
” Xan. My belly!” She wept out her sanity, crouching on her kneels.
Xan excuted himself down the bed and pets her back as she for-ced herself out of the bed.
” Do you need water. Or a ma-ssage. Does it hurt that much?” he asked feeling absolutely clueless.
His heart clenched and got hardened at the sight of her pa-ssing throu-ghsame pain again.
” I want to poo. Poo!” She screamed.
She rushed into the toilet quickly and squ-atted and before she knew it, her second baby was down.
She stooped up on her shoulders and fainted on Xan’s body.
