Chapter 66
No way, what is he thinking now...
"I said---" he didn't finish what he had to say. He frowned as he looked behind me now and it was as if someone was looking at him.
I was about to turn around but Xander suddenly pulled my hand behind him. I was surprised to see that there were six men there and they were wearing masks.
I immediately backed away and covered my mouth when they suddenly took out a knife and tried to stab Xander but Xander was able to defend himself against them.
"Inside the car!!"
"W-What??"
"Get inside the car!!" He yelled at me and because I was panicking I got into another car, I didn't realize that it wasn't Xander's car, was it open?
I saw his every move, the way he punched the man and how he moved to avoid being stabbed with a knife. I was stunned when he grabbed the knife he was holding and stabbed it in the man's stomach, Xander answered the other man's hand.
I stared at the blood dripping...
"Dammit! Why did you go in there!"
I was surprised when Xander pulled me out of the car. He pushed me in and quickly entered the car. I quickly put on my seatbelt so that what happened to my forehead wouldn't happen again, the car was going fast so I really had better put on my seatbelt.
"Sh*t! Drive slowly! Your soul is about to come out!!!" I complained to him and hit him on the shoulder.
"The f**k! Stop it, Elyse! If we don't run into it!" I stopped because of the last thing he said. I just tightened my grip on the seatbelt and closed my eyes.
It's running fast, as if it wants to run away or something. But wait, who are those men? why do they want to hurt Xander??
I suddenly remembered how Xander stabbed that man earlier.
I don't see a trace of pity in his eyes and it seems like he's used to that? To fight?
I slowly opened my eyes and turned to look at Xander. He was only serious while his eyes were on the road. I tried to look back because Xander was constantly looking at the mirror, as if he was looking at something.
I noticed a black van and I felt it was following Xander's car.
"What the hell is happening? Maybe you have a little explanation for what's happening to us right now?!" I looked at him and he at least looked back at me.
You guys were holding a knife earlier and what about now? Maybe they have a gun or some kind of sharp knife.
"Let's talk later after we escape this bullsh*t!"
The scape? We're running away from something now...why, I don't know.
a few minutes later I heard him sigh, a second later I was surprised when he stopped his car on the side of the road.
"Who are those??" I asked him in wonder.
"My uncle's men. I'm so sorry Elyse, you're still in trouble." he said calmly while holding my hand.
"Your uncle's men? Like is he ordering you to hurt him??" I asked him in disbelief at the end.
"Absolutely!
"One of the reasons why I don't go outside. Like f**k! when I go out I'm like a monster that's always hi-na-hunting." He said shaking his head.
"Ughm, where does your uncle live?"
"He's living with my mom..."
"Since when?"
"Since my Daddy left us. he moved to our house for you, to help us and he said he will be our father. Like what the f**k? Seriously? I want to laugh now when I remember what he told us! He's such a f**king wicked demon!"
"One of the reasons why you don't live there anymore? Is that right?"
"Yeah, I don't like seeing his face. Especially his son..."
"Son? Does he have a son?"
"Yes. Actually, he's not his real son. Adopted son? Yes, he is. But they look like a real father and son, they're both wicked!"
"Ohhh..." I bit my lip because I didn't know what to say.
"Uhm, Xander? Is there no end to this? I mean, are you always like this? Boys will chase you to hurt you--"
I stopped talking when he suddenly spoke.
"They're not just going to hurt me, they're gonna kill me Elyse." He promised.
I took a deep breath before speaking. "A-And so? That's it? It's always like that? What if...what if ano..." I didn't finish what I was going to say because I don't know if I should tell him what I'm thinking now, I'm not sure if I should say it or not.
"What if, what?" This is a surprising question.
how are we? I mean, doesn't he have plans for both of us? our future with my son? Will the two of us make up? I don't want my son to be affected by this issue, the son might be harmed and then I...I don't want to die. I'm not afraid to die, I'm not afraid of death. I'm more afraid for my son, what will he do without me.
"What about us Xander?"
I asked and looked him in the eye.
"What do you mean??"
"Do you have a plan for us? Do you have a plan for us? If there is, I'll just tell you this. I don't want to live like this Xander, I don't want to just live in your house with no neighbors, with only trees in sight and far away from populated areas. I'm not saying that you're not normal because you prefer that but I... I'm more used to this, I grew up with a lot of people around, with colorful things to see around. I don't want my life, my son's life to always be in danger, because if it happens to us, I will sympathize with your problem, my son will sympathize, and our lives will sympathize."
"And most of all, I'm fed up that I'm the only one doing the work...I don't want you to be the one who lives for us...it's not because I'm lazy, it's not because I'm tired of that, maybe if we work together That's okay with me because I don't want to do anything, nothing at allmy contribution."my language is long.
"I'm not going to live like this forever, I mean, I was to... that was my plan but it changed because I have you now. I used to be lonely Elyse, but then you came into my life, both you and Elizabeth.then I have a plan with my uncle and soon I will end his greed, I will not allow anything bad to happen to you and Elizabeth."
"And I have work, Elyse. I don't have any plans to let you work once we got married." It added.
"Married? so, you're planning to marry me??" At the same time I pointed to myself. He mentioned about that but now, I feel that he is serious, that he is really sincere about it.
"Yeah? Don't you want to?"
"No! I mean, I want to but I feel like it's too fast?"
"No need to rush, I'm saying that we'll get married next week or next month." He said laughing.
He held my hand and rested my head on his shoulder.
"We're still sweet right now, maybe we'll just shoot a gun in here later!"
"That's okay, it's not easy to break the glass of my car."
He said with a laugh.
"Crazy!" I hit his chest at the same time.
"Hey, Xander? I need someone to pick Elizabeth up." I said while gently shaking his shoulder.
we're here now in a hotel and we're both lying in bed...ahem, you know it's more comfortable in bed... I mean, sleep right! Sleeping in bed is more comfortable, my god what is it thinking?
"Hmm? What time is it?"
He asked while rubbing his eyes.
"Almost 4 pm Xander."
My answer.
"I guess it's fast?"
I frowned.
"Well, I don't know, you can ask that time, not me." I philosophize.
I was in trouble. I was about to stand up but he grabbed my waist and pulled it. He hugged me tightly, I could feel his caress on my back...
"Xander stop--hmm!" It stopped me from covering my mouth.
"Let's do it again, I'll make it faster..." He whispered in my ear and I was terrified. I removed his hand covering my mouth.
"How much faster are you there! You're just faster-faster, you've been for a while!" He hit her with a pillow at the same time and she just laughed.
"Yeah, keep doing that." He said happily. I stopped and followed his eyes where he was looking.
He was staring at my chest and probably while I was hitting him with a pillow, the two of them were shaking.
"You bastard!" He hit his face with a strong pillow.
"Ouch!!" I immediately threw the pillow somewhere and quickly touched both of his cheeks.
"What? What hurts?? Sorry, I didn't mean to." One of his eyes was closed as he held it. Looks like I hit one of his eyes!
"Sorry," I frowned as he gently shook me and got up. He didn't say anything, he just turned his back on me.
"Hey? Are you angry?" He grabbed her by the shoulder.
"Xander? Ouy! Pay attention to me!" At the same time, he slapped his back weakly.
"You're leaving, aren't you? Go ahead, leave. Leave it here." It is obvious in his voice that he is sulking.
"Xander…"
"Just leave." still pointing at the door.
"Okay, fine. Just 5 minutes! Just 5 minutes---amp!" I felt like he pushed me to the bed and stripped me.
"You know if I was just food, I would really say that you are very greedy." I promise to shake.
"Yeah, you're gonna be my food right now again sweetheart. Be ready cause I'm going to wreck that p--" I covered his mouth so he couldn't finish what he had to say.
"What, maybe I'll just leave. It's been a while, you're just a dada."
he kissed me smack on the lips and kissed my neck. We stopped when my cellphone rang, I picked it up and Xander and I looked at each other. I was about to get up but he pushed me and just continued what he was doing.
I bit my lip and answered the caller. "H-Hello? Who is it?"
[Elysee!!! It's Mindy!!] I moved the cellphone a little away from my ear because of the loudness of her voice.
"Ohhhh, ahhhhh... M-Does Mindy have a different number ohh, yours now??" I covered my mouth because of the grunt that kept coming out of my mouth.
"Stop first!" I weakly promised Xander.
[Who stopped? Me? I haven't even started talking yet.] I forgot that the cellphone was in front of my mouth so it could hear even though my voice was weak earlier.
[Wait, are you busy?]
"A-Ahhh...it's not--" I was surprised when he snatched my cellphone from me.
"Yep, we're busy so, can I please excuse Elyse for a minute? we gotta do something important, you know."
[Who is---X-Xander? Is that right? Hey guys, what are you doing--] I was a little surprised when he hung up on Mindy.
"Why did you put him down?!" I asked him with a mixture of annoyance.
"Eh? he's making noise, that's the only way I could think of to make him shut up!" He also said annoyed while frowning, I laughed at his etchura.

"If you just leave your car there? I'll take you and Elizabeth to that Mike's house." we are here right now in front of my car.
"Don't worry, it's fine."
"Don't you want Elizabeth and I to meet?" I scratched my head because of his question.
"I didn't say anything like that,"
"So? Why do you seem to be avoiding him?" Huh? Did I do something like that? I don't remember trying to keep Elizabeth away from her...but I remember thinking the day before or yesterday that I shouldn't tell Elizabeth that Xander and I have made up.
"I mean, it's okay for you to see each other, for him to see you now, but can we not leave this car? It might get lost or you know, it might break the window or it might not be played with. Do you remember when you left me to- one in your car right?"
that time I was wounded in the arm and after that, some groups of men came to his car and ransacked it.
"Yeah, I remember. When you got injured that time, right? Anyway, I already punish that guy-- I mean..." I frowned. I stared at him and he couldn't look straight at me.
"You did...what?"
"Nothing." He suddenly became serious.
"No, you're saying something. Finish it, you punish that guy? Who? That guy who injured my arm? Are you talking about him?" I asked one question after another. I want to know more and more what he wants to say, based on his face now it seems like he is hiding something.
"Xande---"
"Daddy Xander?? Oh myyyy! Daddyyyy!!!" I was surprised to see Elizabeth running to Xander.
His two hands were still raised as if he wanted to hug her. After Elizabeth arrived, Xander immediately hugged her and picked her up.
I noticed Xander's wide smile and so did Elizabeth's. I smiled because their faces are quite similar, they are the same if you smile, you would mistake them for father and son for sure.
"Oh, hi! Are you Elizabeth's parents?" I looked at the man standing in front of us now.
"Hello, maybe you are Elizabeth's mom? by the way, I just want to remind you that parents' day is on Friday and one of the two of you or both of you can attend on Friday." He said.
I think he looks like a school teacher. Subject teacher? Um...
"Hello, teacher heheh thank you for the reminder. I almost forgot that too hehe." Said my son.
"I'm sorry, I think you don't know me yet. I'm Felex Sanfaro, you can just calk me Mr. Sanfaro. I'm a new teacher her, I'm taking over from your son's teacher." He smiled widely at me and I smiled back.
"Anyway, nice to meet you." At the same time, he extended his hand to me.
"Nice to meet you too." I said happily and was about to reach out for his hand but my eyebrows raised when Xander took my hand and he himself shook hands with them.
"Hi, I'm Xander...her husband." I can't control my own excitement, even this heart of mine that doesn't want to be weaned from the excitement.
