Chapter 53

"Can you please untie me?? These ropes are hurting my skin, please remove them", he looked at me for a minute. I winced in pain when he started removing the ropes

I took in a long breath and softly rubbed my wrists. They are finally free! Thank God.

"C-can we-we t-talk?" I asked as I tried standing up. He looked pained for a second, then his poker face was on

I pray he won't hurt me

"We're already talking!" He sighed before helping me stand up. So he still cares??

"No! I don't mean that kind of talk. I want us to talk like civilized adults. I want you to put your hatred, and vengeance aside. I want to talk to my Jeremiah Smith, I want to talk to the man that I fell in love with, not this thug who is ruthless and doesn't know what love is and who is blinded by hatred and revenge. Bring back my Jeremiah", I winced, leaning on the wall was a bad idea

He raised his eyebrow and tilted his head, like trying to figure me out.

"We are talking like civilized adults", he said with a smirk

He still looks good with that smirk

"Please Xavier..."

He just have to put all the hatred and vengeance aside. I just want my Xavier back. Everything that happened is not my fault, he doesn't have the right to blame me. How am I even going to tell mum about this big truth? Maybe she already knows

"You are wasting my time!! Say what you want to say!!" He roared

Okay, I don't know this person in front of me. Where is my man?? God?? Where are you?? I need you!!

"Talk!!!" I closed my eyes and took a deep breath

"Is it my fault that your sister died??" I could feel my tears beaming in my eyes

He looked pained for a moment then smirked

"Yeah, it's your fault. Everyone related to that man is at fault!" He snapped

Not everyone is wrong! Not everyone is at fault!

"So it's my fault that my mother got married to that man?" He only laughed

I know for sure my mum is not at fault. If she knew about stepdad, she wouldn't have married him

"Yes, baby! Your mother is responsible for getting you in such trouble", he carried on laughing

"I don't think it's funny", he immediately stopped laughing and looked at me, his eyes showed mixed emotions

"Xavier people are meant to die", I tried to laugh but only winced in pain

"Yes that's true, and you are next!" He took slow steps towards me.

I know he won't be able to kill me.

"You sweetheart, are going to die, today."

"I'm not ready to die, God will not let me die, he sent me here to change you. I am the beautiful change that is about to happen in your life. You will change Xavier Smith", I tried to force a smile

He will change. He will change.

" I will never change. How will you change me when you are dead?" He laughed

"Will you kill me?" He looked at me

"Don't underestimate me"

He will never kill me

"You can never kill me. You are just a coward. You will never kill me because..."

"Because what? Because I love you? No dear, I can kill you, even if I love you. I can kill you", ouch!

"Come near and give me your hand", he hesitated before bringing his hand forward

"Don't say a word", I took his hand and placed it on my stomach.

I wish I am pregnant

"What will you do if you found out I am pregnant and you are the father??" I asked

He looked shocked for a moment.

"Don't worry this trick won't work. You're going to die today", he removed his hand

"I asked you a question!" I don't know where I got that courage from.

"I will be happy. You will be carrying my baby, our baby. That would be wonderful", he caressed my cheek. I closed my eyes

"This scar looks beautiful on you!"

That is the only thing he sees in me. He made that scar!!!

"You made that scar", I said and he half laughed

"Can I kiss you?" I don't want to kiss him. He is not my Xavier.

"You can kiss Brittney", I said looking away.

"Brittney and I only had sex. I didn't mean it when I said I love her. She is just someone I need when I'm bored of you."

I didn't realize I was crying when I felt his thumb wiping away my tears.

So he gets bored of me?

"Don't cry. I still love you. You are the one that broke things off between us"

I broke things off between us because you lied and cheated. You destroyed me.

"Xavier, before I die can I have a shower?" I want to die feeling fresh and clean

"No! What's the use of that, you go die in thirty minutes. I'm taking you somewhere!"

He scooped me in his arms and went out. The looks we got had lots of questions. He was carrying me in bridal style.

"Where are we going??" I asked

"I think you should sleep!" No, I know what sleep he is talking about

"No, I'll shut up!"

******************

We were in some house. It is very beautiful, it's big, very big.

He roughly put me down. Gosh, this man! My body is still in pain! Can't he be gentle??

"Do you have a last wish?" He knelt in front of me

"Can I shower before I die??" He smirked at my question

"Is that your wish??" He asked

"Yeah..."

" Okay then close your eyes"

"I don't want to die with my eyes closed. I'd like to see your expression when you kill me", he gently helps me stand

"Thank you", I said

"I won't kill you right now", I screamed in pain as he grabbed my waist and easily tossed me over his shoulder.

"Xavier, it's hurting", I cried

"Shut up and close your eyes!!" His grip on my legs tightened and he started walking up the stairs

Where is he taking me?? I just want to shower!

I was still in thought when I felt myself fly in the air. Then ... Splash!!

SPLASH!!!

Gosh!! This water is so cold!!!

"You can have a bath!" This water is so cold

This bastard!

"You are a bastard!! I hate that I love you!!" I shouted

Okay, I've heard enough of this!! Just let me die!! Let me die!

"Come on get out!! Get out of my pool!" He shouted

How can I? I don't have the strength to!!! My body is weak!! I need my mother!!

"Get out!!!" I forced myself out of the pool.

"Are you happy Xavier Smith??"

"Are you happy???"

"You've got your revenge right?? You should be happy! Just kill me!! Because I have had enough!! I can't tolerate it anymore. I want you to kill me. Kill me"

I'm done
