"Hey mama, I didn't know this was the house, but—" He looks me up and down with a playful smirk attached to his face. "I guess it is."

I instantly wrap the towel tighter around me, and go to shut the door. His foot however was in the way. He pushed it open and just stared at me.

I look at the vase, and grab the gun swiftly hidden inside.

"Get out," I state coldly, pointing it to his face.

"Do it," he grins, leaning forward so that his head touches the front of the gun.

I could do it, but my daughter is sleeping and I don't want to go to jail because that means I'd never be able to see her again.

He looks to the side then sighs before taking a step back.

"You know it's rude to flip someone off, right?" He says in his deep, hoarsely voice.

"You don't deserve my kindness," I say in a condescending smile.

"You are so lovely," he teases.

I scoff loudly, glaring at him.

"Don't ever come here again. I don't even know how you're out?" I say in disbelief.

"I can tell you if you let me in," he smiles, peering over my shoulder to look into the house.

"Get out," I say again.

"Okay okay," he says, turning around. "See you soon... Nova," he says, giving me a wave.

Xavier then walks to the sleek black Range Rover that stood parked at the front of my driveway. He opened the door, but didn't go inside.

He turned around, and faced me yet again, scanning his eyes along my body intently this time.

"Can I fuck you?" He asks abruptly, looking dead serious.

I just closed the door, and locked it. What the hell was he doing here, and why was he not in jail? I peer out the window to see the Range Rover now gone.

How did he know where I lived?

My heart started to beat fast because I wasn't sure if this man would come back. If he did, would he hurt me? Worst, would he hurt my daughter?

I immediately called Kieran, and told him what happened (obviously leaving out certain details). He said there was nothing he could do about it since Xaviers record was somehow wiped clean, and his charges were dropped. He did say that I should take out a restraining order against him though.

What a sick bastard Xavier is. How was he able to slime his way out of those charges?

I assumed he paid his way out.

Stupid 'Justice' system. They don't care about putting away criminals. They just care about the check they get.

I try and head to sleep, but my eyes would not shut. Before long the night turned to day. I snoozed my alarm before it rang, and I got out of bed.

First thing I do every morning is wake up Maya. When I went into her room I found her sleeping soundly, clutching onto Mr. Cuddles. The stuffy was a blue and white duck that had a squeaker in its left foot.

"Time to wake up Maya," I say quietly, rubbing her arm.

"Do I have to mamma?" She asks, hugging Mr. Cuddles tighter.

"Yes baby, you gotta wake up. It's almost eight."

"Eight? That's too early," she says, propping herself up on her bed.
