HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 87NINE DAYS AGOClara thought hard on the best way to get inside Xavier’s head again and slowly crawl her way back into his heart, but she knew that it would be a difficult task. She had hurt him terribly, cancelling their wedding just a few weeks before it happened and marrying his brother instead. There was no way he would want her back after that. But still she had to try.With the way things were going, she would have to beg on the street to survive and she couldn’t afford to do that. Going back to her parents wasn’t an option. They were better off than they had been when they lost everything they had, but Clara hadn’t stuck with them till things got better. She had left them immediately she was expelled from fashion school and had come to New York in search of greener pastures.Her parents had tried to reach out to her, but she wasn’t ready to go back home and start life over again. She had decided that her parents could no longer afford the life she want
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 88The flight to Mexico City was a smooth one. He got there quite early and still had some time to go over the documents that would be the focus of the meeting. His company was expanding steadily and was already a household name. They were going to diversify and break into more areas of the economy.Scarlet had done a good job arranging his files and preparing pointers for the meeting. She had arranged them in their order of importance and had been very detailed in the process.He smiled as he remembered her expression when he had to leave. She was really cute when she was upset and pouting. His heart skipped a beat as her face formed in high definition in his mind. He hadn’t really paused to ask himself what he wanted with her. He loved being around her and with her. She brought a spark to his dark and gloomy life and he was thankful he had her. But was he willing to take this farther? Was his heart ready to open up and commit itself to someone again? Was he r
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 89Her clothes lay scattered on the bed, tossed here and there with reckless abandon. Neither of them cared where the clothes landed, all they wanted was to rid themselves of anything that stood between both their skins.As the clothes on their body reduced until it became nothing, their lips were locked in a hot sensual kiss that allowed neither of them breathing space. Hands moved on each bodies and soon his mouth followed trailing kisses on her body, from her face to her toes. He came back up and patted her legs with his hand, and kissing his way upward till he reached her thighs. Clara was already writhing in pleasure and anticipation underneath him.He stopped for a moment and blew on her sex, sending shivers rippling through her. Her mouth parted slightly and a soft moan escaped her lips.Spreading her legs farther, he brought his tongue to her pussy and sucked on her clit, circling his tongue softly around it. Then he licked her like he was feasting on
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 90Clara opened her eyes to a bright, clear- skied morning. The birds were already going about their business, chirping and tweeting happily as they did so. Yellow sun rays dripped through the window pane and white clouds bubbled in the bright blue sky.She turned on the soft bed and pushed down the blanket so she could sit up. She felt her head spin as she sat and drum beats played in her brain. She winced in pain and held on to her head. The weather was good, but she didn’t feel so good.As her eyes adjusted to the room and the throbbing in her head slowed, she looked around in realization that her room looked different, the decor was darker, not as bright colored as it was yesterday. The bed she sat on was bigger and this particular room was bigger than hers. She gazed in awe and confusion.“What the hell happened? Where am I?” She asked.“Relax, you’re still at the hotel.” A deep, silky smooth voice replied, it’s vibrations sending sensual signals through h
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 91Things did not go as planned. She had thought that after the phone call, everything would be settled and she would have the money. But Mr Whitlock had turned her down.“There’s no guarantee that this plan of yours will succeed, and yet I have spent so much already supporting you. Do you have any idea how much the hotel you’re staying in costs? Why did you have to get drunk and bust someone’s car?”“It was an accident, I didn’t mean for it to happen. Besides, this is an opportunity to get close to Xavier. Please, I need some more money.”“Well, you’re going to have to get it elsewhere. I won’t bear all the cost for this scheme of yours.” He replied and hung up.She sat on the bed and stared at the ceiling as if the money she needed was glued up there. What was she going to do now? There was no one else to call and she couldn’t let this opportunity pass.She had no other choice. She had to do what she swore she would never do, she had to swallow her pride and
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 92Nelson withers knocked at Xavier’s office and went in on Xavier’s permission. He looked around his office and then on his desk. He smiled when he noticed that the heap of files that had been stacked on his desk had reduced drastically. There were only two of them left. He had been afraid he wouldn’t be able to make it.Xavier looked up from his computer and nodded a greeting to him, smiling equally. Nelson worked in his company as the head of finance. He was really good at his job and had received an award for the employee of the year. He was getting married now and tonight was his bachelors party. He had invited all his friends and colleagues at the office, especially Xavier.Xavier and Nelson went to college together, although Xavier was a year ahead of him. They had met on several occasions and had become friends. They weren’t that close, but both of them graduated college with the best results, and to achieve that, they learnt from each other occasionall
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 93Friday nights were busy and bubbly. It seemed as though everyone on the planet were out partying and having a great time. The bars were filled up, clubs were packed and a lot of people sat beside the pool in several hotels to rewind and wash off the stress of the week.Music blared from every corner of the street and excitement filled the air, but no one was as excited as Clara littman. She moved through the streets in her car, music playing from the stereo. She couldn’t help but move her body to the music and sing along with glee. Xavier sat beside her, asleep and his head drooping, he was unaware of his surrounding and had no idea where he was.Clara looked beside her and butterflies seemed to dance in her stomach at the sight of him. She smiled to herself and thanked her lucky star for the opportunity to be alone with him.She stopped in front of her house and opened the door. Xavier woke up at that moment and looked around, still under the influence. She
HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 94The only time he had experienced fear beyond his capacity to handle, to the point that he cried, was when his mother had left him in front of Mr whitlock’s mansion when he was seven years old. The memory was faint now and he could barely remember her face or her expression when she abandoned him there, promising to come back for him but never got around to doing so even at this very moment. He had been so lost and confused, he just stood there, letter and DNA test results in hand and tears in his eyes. His mother had been gone for an hour now and there was still no sign of her. The whitlocks had driven in thirty minutes later and were surprised to find a boy who had a striking resemblance with Benjamin, and a birthmark on the shoulder that matched the one on his, standing at their front door. He had no idea what to expect, but he handed over the letter to the man whom her mother had told her was his real father and looked around in fear. A woman stood be
