Obsessed with my forced Bride

Chapter 15 // An apology //

Smack!!!!

The brand new phone came in contact with the wall harshly which made Valentina jerk up from her sleep. She unconsciously sat on Xavier's stomach making him groan.

"What happened? What happened?"

Valentina asked hastily. She looked around and then saw the broken phone laying in one corner of the room. She then looked down and blushed heavily when she realized she was sitting on Xavier. She hurriedly got down off him.

Xavier who was groaning a while back came back to reality and with him came his anger that too in ten fold. He stood up and his height towered over Valentina who gulped down her saliva in fear. Xavier stormed near her and held her arm tightly.

"What do you think of yourself? Huh??? Are you even human? Taking advantage of someone else's fear?"

Valentina felt hurt when he saw that she was taking advantage of his fear. That's now how it is.

"I didn't."

Valentina whispered but Xavier scoffed at her. He was about to yell at her when he noticed tears in her eyes.

"f**k!!"

Xavier cursed under his breath and left her and stormed inside the washroom. He didn't know why her tears affected him. Valentina flinched when she heard the door closing with a thud.

Rring!!

Her phone started ringing which made her wipe away her tears hastily. She looked at the screen and then answered the call,

"Grandpa!!"

Grandpa Night sighed as he could sense her sadness in her voice. He knew he didn't do right. In the process of curing his grandson, he was hurting an innocent soul.

"I'm sorry dear."

"No, no grandpa. Don't be sorry. I know whatever you are doing is for his good. But it's not right to use his fear against him."

Grandpa Night smiled sensing her concern. It hasn't been two days properly and just because of his words, she is caring for him even though he is rude to her.

"Valentina, you know what I'm doing is right. A person can never overcome his fear unless he faces it. Unless he fights with it. Xavier needs to face his fear and fight with it and win against it. If he keeps on running away from it then he will forever be trapped in his fear of darkness.

We humans are scared of many things. But only a few percent can overcome it because they fight against it. They don't know whether they will win or lose. But they know they have the ability to fight and they will use this ability to fight. We just need to make Xavier realize that he isn't alone. You are with him."

Valentina's breath hitched when she heard the last line. She knew she was forever stuck with him if she didn't find her chubby boy in the time span of a year.

Valentina hastily cut off the call when the door of the washroom again opened. Valentina turned around and was shocked when she saw him soaking in water from top to bottom. All his clothes were wet and water was dripping from his hair.

"You will get a cold."

Valentina didn't know from where she got the courage as she held his hand and made him sit on the chair. Xavier was calmed down by now as he drenched himself in cold water. Even though he was shivering in the cold, he felt a warmness in his heart when he saw his little wife running here and there in search of the towel.

"It's in the cupboard."

The words left Xavier's mouth without his realization.

Valentina didn't look back at him and opened the cupboard and took out the towel. She went near him and started wiping his hair. Xavier couldn't figure out what was happening. A while back he yelled at her and stormed inside the washroom. Now he came back, he didn't expect her to wipe his hair and care about him. Did he do wrong by yelling at her? But she took advantage of his fear with that old man.

Xavier was frustrated over his thinking. He didn't know what the hell was happening.

"I didn't take advantage of your fear. I had just made food for you last night and then you came to your room. The lights went off so I thought you would be tense. So I made the butler open the door with the master key."

Xavier wanted to look at her but she just covered his head with the towel. He threw away the towel and pulled her down on his lap. Valentina gasped as she didn't expect it. She looked up at him and shivered when he stared at her with intense eyes.

Valentina expected him to say something. But he didn't say anything and pressed his lips against her.

Xavier wanted to apologize to her as he misunderstood her. But when he saw her wetting her lips with her tongue, he lost it. He hadn't tasted those petals for a day. Without thinking much, he latched his lips with her and started sucking his favourite petals. She was his, so it makes her lips his also. He doesn't need permission to kiss what belongs to him.

Valentina gasped for air when he left her after the kiss. She didn't know what always goes around this devil's mind. At one point he is an angry bull and at another point he is all silent.

"Don't expect me to say sorry. Go and get ready."

Xavier pushed her from his lap and got up. Why would he stay back as he has got what he wanted?

Valentina looked at him as if he betrayed her. But then got confused when he said to get ready.

"Where are we going?"

Valentina asked.

"For breakfast!!"

Xavier gave a curt answer. Valentina smiled. She didn't know that he would take her out for an apology.

"Thank you!"

Valentina yelled and ran out of the room before Xavier could spot her smile.

"Thank you?? Why???"
