"I know I have no right to say anything in this but please don't go hard on Xavier... I have seen him struggling to stay alive without you..."

Ace said.

They were sitting in the garden while Xavier was attending some important meeting.

"Then why did he do that?"

She questioned bitterly. Ace knows why he did that but couldn't tell her.

"I don't know..."

He sighed.

"Okay let's forget it... Let's talk about something else. Tell me about your College days. How was it..."

Ace tried to replace out if she remember anything.

"I don't know, everything is blur... I don't remember anything..."

She sighed leaning against her chair.

"So you won't know if you had a boyfriend or not... What if you were in love with someone else..."

Ace questioned.

"Then he might have been there for me after accident... He wasn't so may be it was not true love... I don't care anyway, love has damaged me beyond repair. I wish I have never experienced that.."

Sarah replied.

"You still love Xavier, don't you..."

Ace asked and she smiled bitterly.

"It's isn't love if it gets forgotten easily... I am still struggling to forget him..."

"Why are you tormenting him and yourself... Just forget everything and move on. You guys have a kid now..."

Ace suggested.

"It's been two weeks since we have brought you back and I have never seen Xavier happy like this before... He has came back to life... he has started working again otherwise he was used to spend his all day beside your grave."

"I tried to forgive him Ace but those memories are not leaving me... I still remember each and every second of insult... What you would have done, if you were in my place?... It's not that easy..."

She answered.

They were talking when Xavier's car entered the main gate. He got out and directly walked inside but they did noticed the wound on his neck and they quickly stood up. It was slightly bleeding.

"What the fuck happened?... Xavier?"

Ace tried to stop him but he walked inside without answering. Sarah looked at him worriedly.

"Max what happened?..."

Ace asked his bodyguard.

"Sir... We were in the meeting with Damian knight... Boss and he got into argument. Boss threatened to kill Damian but his bodyguard attacked Boss... Damian stopped her but boss got a small cut..."

He explained.

"You mean Rose attacked Xavier..."

Ace rubbed his head in disbelief.

"Who is Rose?"

Sarah frowned.

"Damian's girlfriend..."

Ace sighed.

"She was assassin before becoming his bodyguard... She could have killed Xavier, is Damian fucking crazy..."

Sarah walked towards their room. She entered the room and saw Xavier coming out of the shower. He haven't tamed his wound yet.

He would have been dead today. Her heart sank in her chest thinking about it. It was Damian that's why he stopped but what if others won't. Is she ready to lose him.

She doesn't want to accept but his behavior making her change her mind slowly. He has been incredibly patient and caring since last two weeks. He is tolerating her Anger and tantrums.

Skyler has started going school here and Xavier is spending time with him, giving all love which one father should give his child.

Xavier looked at her and she looked away realising she was staring at him for a long time. She went to the balcony and sat there.

Xavier signed and lay back on the bed. He closed his eyes and fall asleep after a hectic day. He literally saw his death today. Now he was more concerned about the business. With that kind of girlfriend, Damian has become more powerful. Now It will be more difficult to stop him from dominating the business.

Sarah carefully peaked inside to see him. He was asleep. She looked at his neck and it still has a cut on it.

She took the medical kit and carefully sat beside him not wanting to wake him up.

She tamed the wound with ointment and placed the box aside.

She was about to stand but Xavier grabbed her hand. Sarah gasped when he rolled her on the bed.

"What is so hard to do when I was awake... If you still love me then why can't you show me Sarah..."

He asked.

"Leave me..."

She tried to push his hands away.

"Why did you do this... Tell me and I will let you go..."

He demanded.

"I am not answerable to you"

She countered.

"Okay then, let's sleep like this..."

He said and nuzzled in her neck.

Sarah struggled but he held her tightly. He forcefully tangled his legs in hers and covered them under bedsheet.

'Leave me..."

She gritted.

"No"

He replied with closed eyes.

After struggling for few more minutes she gave up and fall asleep. Xavier smiled looking at her.

"I know you still love me baby..."

"Be a good boy..."

Sarah kissed skyler's forehead.

"Okay mom... Don't worry I'll be fine. I have already made friends..."

Skyler replied taking his school bag.

"Really? How many friends you made..."

She asked curiously.

"Matt and Finn..."

He replied.

"No girls?"

She asked.

"No mom... Girls start crying over small things. I don't like crying so I stay away from them... Yesterday that one girl took my colouring book and when I took it back she started crying... Urghh so annoying..."

He Huffed dramatically.

"Hey champ, let's go..."

Ace entered the room and Skyler went to the school with him.

Sarah completely ignored Xavier who was trying to get her attention and spend her day while reading a book. It was almost the time when Skyler comes back from school. She was waiting for him.

It was past 1 pm but he wasn't home and she was getting worried. She went towards Xavier's office.

He was busy in work. When he saw her, he quickly placed the file down and gave her his all attention.

"What happened?... Do you need anything?"

"Skyler haven't come back yet?... Where is he?..."

She asked.

Xavier called skyler's bodyguard and clenched his jaw when he got the news.

"That fucking bastard..."

He growled.

Sarah's heart started racing thinking about the worst.

"W_What happened?"

She asked nervously.

"Damian took Skyler with him..."

Xavier answered.

"He kidnapped him, didn't he?"

Sarah asked and Xavier nodded.
