Chapter 24

Cat Mendoza:–

“What do you want, Alexander? What are you doing over here?”

I demanded in a stern and icy tone when I opened the door and watched the tall, handsome man glaring at me, although he looked tired, with dark circles underneath his eyes, and his beard grown. It has been almost two weeks since we have last seen one another and until now I didn’t know I missed this dangerous man.

“You are coming home with me, young lady.” he growled “We are going to talk and clear things out. But not here. At my place where I could be sure you won’t be able to run away from me like last time.”

“No, I am not coming with you, Alexander!” I snapped, taking step back when I noticed him take predatory steps towards me “I am moving back to my place as it has been fixed and I refuse to be your personal whore, you asshole!”

“Don’t….Don’t you dare ever say that word out of your mouth again. I forbid you from saying that because you are anything but a whore.” he growls angrily “You are nothing but my woman. My beautiful woman who I really care about, feel alive with, feel whole and able to move on with my pathetic boring life where I have always lived for others, but now I want to live my life, with you because….Because…”

“Because, what Alexander?” I asked, with stunned eyes because if I think what he is about to say then I might faint because there is no way he could be in love with me since we barely know one another and created an accidental baby.

“Because I care about you. More than anyone.” Alexander fixed his hungry stare right on my face and his words sounded more urgent, rougher now.

“All that’s real in my life is you and our baby,Cat and I don’t regret or feel guilty about a single moment I spent with you instead I cherish the moments I share with you because they bring joy in my life. You’re not going to leave me now. Not now, not ever.”

“You have Laila,” I pointed out “A daughter to call your own, then why do you say I and the baby are the only real thing in your life and you can’t just walk back into my life and demand me to come with you. You don’t own me, Alexander. How many times I have to tell you that you can’t dictate my life. How can you be with another woman, especially your ex after fucking me that night?”

He moved forward and I felt like the room had closed in on me as I stared at his intimidating figure “I’m not trying to own you. I’m trying to stand up for you–for us. I am willing to admit when I have made a mistake and yet I am determined not to let a silly misunderstanding come and end what we have. What we both share everytime we are together and miserable when we both are apart.”

I sighed and glared at Alexander, visualizing the scene that lasted for no more than several minutes but felt like hours incredibly annoying and shameful.

“Not what it looks like? Oh, Alexander, I saw her naked lying on your desk looking at you as if she wanted you to have sex with her. So tell me what part am I misunderstanding over here since you were almost on top of her naked body.”

He sighed deeply, running his hand through the black, slightly unkempt hair on his head. “You did not get to listen to me turn her down, Cat. I was just about to throw her out when you came in!”

“Oh, how convenient,” I snarled, folding my arms across my chest in definite indignation. “Alright, you are saying that it just simply occurred to you to allow her to unzip her dress and attempt to pull you closer to her. That is the story you are planning on going with?”

His eyes turned black with anger, his tone becoming dangerous again. “I do not suppose that I ‘let‘ her do anything, Cat. She

caught me off guard. I warned her to stop it and before I could try to shove her away, you came right in at that moment and saw that.”

I gave a dry bitter laugh shook my head. “Can you even hear yourself, Alexander? It’s unbelievable that you are a grown man, and yet, you could not evade her advances? You expect me to believe that?”

“Yes, because that’s the truth. I never lie about anything.” he spoke, trying to get hold of me, but I stepped back.

“I was attempting to deescalate the situation,” he growled out, his jaw muscles tight. “Charlotte has been pursuing me ever since we separated, my ex–wife that is, but I never granted her wish once. I wouldn’t do that, Cat, not to anyone, especially to you, my kitten.

I just wouldn’t because you mean so much to me, so does our baby. Just come home with me, Cat. Come home to me, where I can protect you and our baby. Where I can take care of you, provide for you and make you feel happy. I just want to see you happy and healthy not just for the baby, but for yourself too, so you can acheive all the goals of your life that you have planned.”

“Why should I believe you?” I fired the next reply myself, my words barely audible. “Alexander, I have been here before, you know I have been burned before. I have heard all the excuses, all the lies. And you… you looked just like Jericho in that

moment.”

He winced, as if I had struck him right across the face. “Don’t compare me to him, Cat. I am not Jericho, and I will never be. I know he broke you, made you believe that all men are cheaters who cannot be trusted. But I’m not him, damn it. I am man with standard and don’t like to stoop down that low.

I hate cheaters just like you, because I have been cheated by my ex–wife again and again in my whole life. So, I know the feeling, and yet I refuse to let her actions ruin my life and my abilities to trust other women and here I am trusting you with everything I have got because you are someone I can’t bear to lose.”

“I….I am just scared, Xander. I am scared and don’t know what to do and who to trust. I don’t know why but in these past one and half week I have missed you so much, but I miss Laila more. I miss being with her, sharing things with her. I feel broken as if someone has snatched my sister away from me.” I sobbed.

“The more I am working on this project, the more I am missing her because I wanted to do this with her, but I guess it’s not possible as everytime I see her, I can’t help but get the image of her fucking Jericho.”

“Do you want to know why did I leave so urgently that day and asked my assistant to call my pilot?” Alexander asked, cupping my face this time and wiped my tears “It… It was due to Laila, she fell of the stairs and broke her leg….and not just that she….she was pregnant with Jericho’s baby and miscarried.”

“What?! When did this happen and how? Oh my God! She must be in so much pain. Please….please take me to her. She must be devastated at the moment. I need to see her, to talk to her…please just take me to her.” I couldn’t hold back and burst out sobbing as Alexander pulled me into his arms and comforted me.
