His Iris | ✓

Chapter 17

Xavier POV

I will marry her and make her mine. She can't be anyone else's. I can't believe she still hasn't told me about the kiss with her and Mathew. I thought about forgiving her but no.

She will pay for what she did.

When I proposed to her this morning I meant it. I wanted her. No one else. I would always sleep around with other woman and do one night stands. But with her it's different. She's hard to get to but once you get to know her she's hard to get away from.

I agreed to invite Mathew to the wedding so he would know Iris is mine. My parents are excited to meet Iris. They know about the deal which scared them. They wanted me to find true love and not just get married. But I'm sure they would love Iris.

Taylor on the other hand was jealous. His girlfriend was a gold digger and broke up with him. He's been horrible ever since and now hits on any and every girl. But if he does anything to Iris I will kill him.

I will get revenge on her very soon. But for now I'll play it safe.

"Xavier?" She asked taking me out of my thoughts. We were sitting in the living room watching T.V.

"Yes?"

She bit her lip and asked, "The morning of the night you brought me back, why were you drunk?"

I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose.

Flashback

She was back and well.

But why would she hide the fact that Mathew and her kissed!? I was pacing back and forth in the living room. She was upstairs in her room asleep. I didn't want to sleep with her anymore. Not after finding out what happened.

No one slept on my bed except me. I trusted her as my soon to be wife, yet she betrayed me.

What am I gonna do? Revenge. I will have my revenge.

I will make her life a living hell. Or at least close to that. I know she has been through a lot but the fact of her in someone else's hands and especially kissing them made me want to do the worst things to her.

For now I will stay calm and go with the flow. But I will have to trigger a plan.

Fuck it. I'm just going to drink. I got beer cans and wine as I started drinking my problems away. The burning and tingling sensation in my mouth made me cringe.

Iris you're killing me.

"Well, I was having a hard time. After everything that happened the only way to cope with it was to drink. I'm sorry for doing that to you sweetheart," I replied half lying. The real reason was that I wanted to get my mind off her.

She nodded and cuddled up closer to me. I slightly smiled and kissed her forehead as she slowly drifted off to sleep.

She is too cute.

I slowly picked her up and brought her upstairs into her bedroom. The wedding will be in less than a week. I didn't want her to sleep with me yet. I would just lose control and take her over and over. I knew better than to do that.

Sam wanted details on Iris as I only told him the big picture. As for Stacey, she was just a random girl trying to get into my pants. I had Ryan do research on her and he told me Sam planned on me having sex with her so Iris would be heartbroken.

It wasn't going to be that easy. I wouldn't cheat on her with some random whore. Stacey wasn't that bad of a person though. She was forced by Sam which made him the asshole.

Iris was sleeping soundly as I went downstairs to get a glass of water.

Tomorrow will be the day I took her into my company. She would be my new PA because that way I would have her around me always. She would also get to know the struggle of owning such a big empire. I wanted her to get used to it so she could pursue her passion.

I didn't know much about her but we discussed little things like those. She wanted her job to be revolved around helping people. Most likely becoming a therapist to young kids. I thought that was a great idea. But as for now she would work for me.

I went upstairs and into my bedroom. All night I was thinking of her.

This will be a real journey.
