"I am feeling like a shit right now but only few things okay?..."

Ace warned her and she nodded assuring him.

"Fuck it's feeling like I am betraying him..."

he said but he was sure that it might bring some change in their life.

"My father was Xavier's father's right hand and I got to know this from him. Actually Xavier was deeply in love with some girl in his college days and she broke up with him. I don't know what's her name is or how she looks. Her betrayal broke Xavier, he was in depression for years and started staying alone. his father started his training and He became brutal and heartless, like he turn his pain in power. Now he don't believe in love and don't want anyone to come near him..."

Sarah's face turned sad.

"Ohh... That's sad. I didn't know that love can be that fatal. Is that why he is so heartless?..."

Ace nodded.

"Yes... He has created a shell around him that no one can break. He is afraid that he might fall in love again and history will repeat itself..." "Understandable..."

She sighed.

"I want you to try it Sarah... I have a feeling that may be you can change him..."

Sarah's eyes widened.

"Me?... No ace, I can't..."

She shook her head furiously.

"Please Sarah..."

Ace pleaded.

"The way you described his situation after that I am sure that I am the only person in this world whom he hates the most right now and I love my life even if it's a mess... So spare me." She said firmly.

"Please... He is not a bad guy..."

Ace said pleadingly.

She sighed.

"Okay... I'll think about it..."

Ace grinned at her.

"thank you so much... thank god your bitchy sister ran away... sorry but she is a bitch..."

Sarah chuckled, Suddenly his phone rang and he excused himself from her, not wanting to talk business in front of her.

Sarah stood up from her chair and decided to take a walk. She folded her hands on her chest and Started walking in the garden.

'how can he love that girl so much that her betrayal changed him completely. I wonder who is that girl. Why she left him heartbroken. Does he still love her. Will he forgive her if she comes back in his life. If he really loved her then he might will... he doesn't seem like a man who will love someone and do stupid things to impress a girl... Love is so complicated, thank god I never fell in love...'

Sarah halted in her place and chain of her thoughts broke when she heard someone's whimpers.

She slowly walked towards the source of voice and clasped her mouth in shock.

The man was kneeling in front of her husband. Xavier was looking very dangerous. His white shirt was covered in blood and she was smart to know that it doesn't belong to him. Few of his guards were standing behind him with loaded guns.

The man who was kneeling in front of him was looking half dead, like he will fell on the ground with thud but looks like he was holding himself up. Did Xavier threatened him to stay like that? She thought. "Boss... Please. I have a family, please forgive me. I needed money that's why_____"

His cries filled the backyard.

"Please don't kill me... Please. Give me one chance, I swear it won't happen again..."

He sounded like his tongue getting heavy. Blood was oozing out from his left calf. And his whole face was beaten and covered in blood. He looked battered and non-recognizable.

Sarah's heart shook in horror, she wanted to run and hide somewhere but at the same time she wanted to save that man.

'what kind of mistake he has done to deserve this...'

What terrified her most that Xavier was Smirking down at that poor man while holding dagger in his hand.

Xavier pulled out his tongue and sliced it one go and buried same dagger deep in his heart.

Blood sprawled on his face and body. Sarah screamed on top of her lungs when she saw his brutal act, On top of that all that blood was making her dizzy.

Her screams grabbed everyone's attention including Xavier. Xavier looked at the girl who has clasped her mouth with her hands and was looking at him with horrified eyes. "Boss your wife..."

One of his man said.

Xavier Smirked looking at her condition her face wasn't clearly visible under dim lights of garden.

He swirled dagger in his hand and walked towards her. Sarah's heart almost came in her mouth when she saw him coming towards her.

She stepped back but stumbled and fell on the ground scratching her palms and elbows.

She felt him hovering over her and slowly lifted her face to look at him. Her eyes were glossy and breathing were coming in pants.

Xavier's Smirking face turned into shocked one when he finally saw his wife's face and the dagger fell down from his hands. Sarah froze in her spot, shaking in fear when he looked at her with his stormy gray eyes. She couldn't read his face. What he was thinking was unreadable from his expressions.

All her focus was on the dagger and the blood he has on his body. She was getting nauseous by the site.

'ace wants me to change this monster. No I can't, he is not a human. I can't do this.'

Xavier slowly squat down in front of her still not believing on his eyes. Sarah slowly dragged herself away from him but she felt like something is holding her back.

Xavier's bloody hand reached to her face and sob escaped her mouth when she felt blood on her cheek where he has touched her.

"Are you real?..."

He whispered in disbelief as he looked at her glossy Amber eyes, red nose and trembling lips.

"Or this is just a dream..."

He mumbled but Sarah couldn't hear anything probably. Her world was spinning.00000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
