CHAPTER 2

Mira the moment she finished taking the drugs began to feel dizzy so she placed her teddy to lie on the bed before she turned to Xaden who was still covering up the medicines.

"Hubby come lie down with me" she said in a slightly slurry voice as the medicines were already having their effects on her.

Xaden without question was quick to move and climb on the bed, drawing her in to himself as he made her lie on his chest before he comfortably lay back on the bed.

The drug was so potent that Mira already fell asleep in the next five minutes.

Minutes later,Xaden after noticing she was deeply asleep carefully peeled her grip off him and made her lie on her back, safeguarding her between the pillows since she was a boisterous sleeper.

As soon as she was comfortable,he slowly got out of the bed and sat beside her and gently began stroking her hair.

Xaden's eyes smoldered over her with an indescribable amount of love,one that could not be put into words or writing,a type of love that couldn't be expressed through a simple ' I love you' if only there was a word greater than that.

He gently adjusted her head on the pillow so that she was even more comfortable,his eyes were a bit moist as he stared at his beautiful wife,he really had not seen anyone else as beautiful as her,at least not in this Earth.

But then,Xaden was extremely sad as he didn't like the fact that he had to put her to sleep everytime he needed to go out but he had no choice because if she were to be awake, she'd never let him go out, she'd either start begging and crying, something that tore his heart into shreds and in some rare occasions, something might get triggered in her brain and she'd become aggressive and hence the safest way he needed to use was to give her a pill from her prescribed medications,one that was a deep sedative but wouldn't harm her instead would make her entire body to relax.

As Xaden was busy staring at his wife,the Maid in charge of Mira, Nanny Calista walked in after knocking softly on the wide open door,Xaden wasn't quick to notice her but when he did,he quickly blinked his eyes to absorb the tears that were threatening to gather in his eyes.

Clearing his throat,he stood up pulling up the thick white blanket up to Mira's shoulder, tucking her in tightly after which he then turned towards the Nanny as he began spouting orders like the Boss he was with a stoic face and a rigid tone, gone was the soft voice he had used on Mira a while ago.

"When she wakes up later in the afternoon,make sure to prepare whatever she requests to eat except the foods on the black list,and if she asks of me,tell her I went out to get her ice cream" he ordered in a plain voice. " And also, there'll be no need for you to give her any drugs in the afternoon,the doctor has said her condition has improved and therefore it won't be required of her to take three dozes a day anymore,so from now on it'll only be in the morning and evening and I get to be giving her that, understand"

"Yes sir" the Maid replied

"And even with the slightest panic or discomfort from my wife,make sure to give me a call asap"

"I will do just that sir" The maid replied with her head still downwards and Xaden finally nodded his head a bit before he turned to his wife.

He bent and placed a soft kiss on her forehead,her eyes,her nose and then finally a soft peck on her lips that lacked no affection. "I'll be back love" he whispered before he placed another kiss on her lips and then turned around.

He glanced at the maid and as if a wordless communication had just been passed,the maid nodded her head,she needed no one to tell her that that simple look from her boss meant ' look after my wife with everything you've got or else!!!!, there'll be hell to pay '

Xaden after receiving the maid's nod finally picked up his suit from the bed and and with one last look at his wife,he exited the room and headed downstairs towards the main doors of the Reign Mansion,and the moment he stepped out,a convoy of 5 gleaming black as night cars suddenly pulled over in front of him with a Lamborghini Veneyo right at his face and then,a man dressed in black wearing shades suddenly emerged from the passenger front seat and opened the door for him to go in.

At this point, Xaden's face had gone all cold,dark,stoic and expressionless as ever,a complete contrast to the warm and loving face he'd been carrying all around to his wife inside the house, he'd all of a sudden switched modes and had become hard as steel.

It was as though his soft side was meant for his wife and wife alone,as he stepped out,he was no longer a loving husband but Xaden Reigns,the ruthless god of the business world,a devil whose smile was even more rarer than the eclipse of the moon itself.

He had become the ruthless multi billionaire Xaden Reigns,the CEO of Ramada,the company's president and the largest shareholder at the same time.

Xaden Reigns who had just turned 27 was one figure whom no business man or underworld personnel would try to put or bring down as they all were easily crumbled in a snap.

He was one man considered to be the most powerful man in the business world,a man whose trade wasn't limited within the country alone but beyond.

Xaden also happened to be one man topping the list of the most richest and handsome man numerous girls from in and outside the country all wanted to get married to especially since they felt he was a bachelor again unknown to any of them that Xaden had his own personal secrets to hide from the world.
