39) Does he really care?
Sarah's pov
I looked around to find someone at least security guard and my heart filled with happiness when I saw Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Xavier entering from the front door with few of his men.
As soon as I saw him, I ran towards him. The sense of security I am feeling right now is indescribable.
To be honest I don't know if he will help me or not but my heart says that he will. He will do anything to
save me, don't ask me why I am thinking like this.
His guards must have recognized me because they didn't stopped me from reaching him. Xavier
stopped and froze in his place when I suddenly hugged him. He didn't saw me as he was busy looking
in his phone.
He grabbed me by arms saying a confused.
"Excuse me?"
May be he haven't recognized me yet. I looked up from his chest. I am sure I am a crying mess right
now. The anxiety has kicked in and I can feel my hands shaking.
"Sarah?"
He looked at me confused with scrunched eyebrows and slowly his confused faded and turned into
anger when he saw my face.
Is he Angry because I am hugging him? Why would he, I mean I can't expect him to help me.
But he proved me wrong when he cupped my face and sob erupted from my throat. I hate how weak I
am, I hate it when I can't stand for myself or fight with evil people.
He wiped the blood from my lips with furious eyes, is he angry because I am hurt?
Why my heart is feeling relieved after witnessing it. His arm is wrapped around me in a secured
manner and I am feeling safe in his arms.
"Who did this?"
He asked with clenched jaw.
I closed my eyes letting tears fall down, if I want to talk then I have to calm my myself down otherwise
words won't be coming out of my mouth.
He tilted my face up impatiently.
"I asked who did this? Answer me?..."
He growling Angrily.
I turned around and looked at the door of washroom from where that disgusting man was coming out.
He was limping, looks like I hit at the right place.
I looked at Xavier and pointed my fingers towards him. I really have no energy to talk right now.
Xavier looked at him and clenched his jaw, I can see his veins popping out from his forehead.
"Wait here..."
He said removing my hand from his body and strode towards Gomez.
What is he going to do with him? I just hope not something illegal because we are in public place. I
looked at Ace who was looking tensed.
"Where are your guards Sarah?"
He asked in worry.
"T_They a_are in the c_car..."
I answered and couldn't believe that this is my voice. It's so hard to recognize.
Our eyes snapped towards the direction of Xavier when we heard bone cracking voice. Oh my god! He
is beating him.
Xavier grabbed him by the collar and threw punches after punches on his face. His face is battered in
blood, he must have broken bones of his face. I quickly looked away not wanting to see that gross
blood.
But still I can hear his whimpered and Xavier's hard punches. By now whole office has arrived at the
scene and murmuring voice has filled the floor.
"Xavier stop... We are in public place..."
I heard Ace's voice. He must be trying to stop him.
I glanced at the scene and Xavier looks unstoppable. He is furiously beating that man and first time in
my life I am not feeling uncomfortable with the violence. He deserve this.
"He fucking touched my wife... MY WIFE!..."
He growled punching him again and no one dared to stop him.
Is it wrong if I say that this is making my heart flutter and fill with happiness. Why those words feels so
good from his mouth.
May be because no one has claimed me with this much authority before. I have started liking this
sense of belongingness.
I was standing there with clasped hands and glossy eyes when Xavier glanced at me. I don't know if I
am imagining things or I really saw his eyes softening when he looked at me.
Xavier looked at Ace gesturing something like they are talking in their secret language and Ace gave
him a quick nod.
He started walking towards me while pulling out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiping the blood
from his knuckles. He threw the handkerchief towards one of his guard and grabbed my arm, this time
more gently than he ever did.
"Cancel my meeting"
He ordered his men and led me towards his car.
I saw Mr. William looking at me with confused face but I gave him assuring look and he nodded.
"Get inside..."
Xavier said and I did. My legs are about give up anyway. I think I need my medicines before it gets
more worst.
He sat infront of me in his limo and handed me a water bottle. I took it with trembling hands and
opened it, almost spilling the bottle. Oh god! Why it's so difficult to control the anxiety.
Xavier looked at me confused may be thinking why I am shaking so much but I can't blame him, he has
no idea about my medical history. He took the bottle from my hand held it for me to drink. He must be
thinking that I am shaken due to incident. Well he is not wrong but what he doesn't know that I can't
stop this without medicines and forgot my purse in that washroom.
I drank the water and he placed it aside.
"M_My p_purse is there..."
I said, I can't lose it. I have my all important cards and medicines in that.
"Ace will get it..."
He answered taking out the white box. It must be a first aid kit.
He cleaned my injury with cotton ball and tamed it with ointment. I couldn't help but look at him with
admiration. I am confused about the emotions I am seeing in his eyes and on his face. He is probably
the first person who is taking care of my wounds like this.
How should I tell this man this is dangerous for me. His seconds of affection might make me pay the
things for which I am not ready. How should I tell him that I am not a normal girl or human. I am
damaged, broken and little bit of affection can give me those hope which might be not even there. His
little actions are playing with my heart and I can't afford it. How should I tell him that I might get
attached to him if he continues to do things like this for me.
I might fall for him if he keeps behaving like this and I know he is not ready for that neither me.
Why he always behaves like he care about me. Why he is always there to help and save me. I never
asked for a knight in shining armour, I just asked for a little bit of peace which I have lost with the death
of my mother. Why you are affecting my life like this Xavier knight, why?...
I found him glaring at my blouse and followed the direction of his eyes. The upper button is open and
the cloth has small cut on it. It must have got ripped. I quickly fixed it and he looked at me with soft
eyes.
"Are you okay?"
He asked caressing my cheek with his hand.
"No... I am not"
I shook my head as tears welled in my eyes. Why everything have to be so difficult, why I can't live a
normal life.
He grabbed my arm and pulled me on his lap and like a desperate bitch I wrapped my arms around his
neck and cried. I shouldn't cry like this in front of him and show him how vulnerable I am but I can't help
it. I can't control my emotions. He feels so warm and safe. He rubbed my back comforting me and I
can't be more grateful. I closed my eyes enjoying his touch.
But the Thing which is Terrifying me right now is that I know I am damaged and to be honest I have no
idea how long I can survive. I can feel my health getting worst day by day, mentally and physically. The
changes are noticable.
It feels like I have very little time left in this world.
