His Iris | ✓

Chapter 29

Iris POV

I woke up to someone banging on the front door and ringing the doorbell. What the hell? The things Mathew said to me yesterday were undescribable. He liked me but I thought that was just in the past.

I got up and tried to open the door but of course it was locked. I decided to ignore it and went into the bathroom to do my necessities. I freshened up and as I was about to turn off the running water from the sink I heard a loud gun shot. I flinched and stood there frozen. D-Did someone break in? I decided to stay in the bathroom and slouched down in the corner.

Is Mathew okay? As much as I hate him for doing this I wouldn't want my friend to die.

After a few minutes I heard some shuffling outside my door but I tried to ignore it. After a few more minutes I heard shuffling again and footsteps coming near the bathroom. Shit! I covered my mouth making sure to stay as quiet as possible.

The door opened as I buried my face into my arms and tried to pretend I wasn't here at all. Like that would work, my consciousness spoke. Shut up!

Xavier POV

She's in California. The bastard who kidnapped Iris took her to California!? I swear to god if he hurts her or our baby I will send that motherfucker to hell.

Right now I'm in a private jet heading to California. Last night after going to the restaurant to try and find Iris, Ryan called me to inform me that she's on a plane to California. I already knew Iris wouldn't do something like that but the motherfucker who kidnapped her probably drugged her and made her go along.

The thought made me angrier but I will soon be in California to get my girl back.

After the flight I went straight to my parents house to visit them and fill them in on everything. They still didn't know Iris is pregnant but now it's time to tell them. I knocked on the house door as I heard some shuffling on the other side. My mother opened the door and widened her eyes before pulling me into a tight hug.

I hugged her back. I needed this. After pulling back she asked, "Why are you suddenly in California? Where is Iris?" The thought made my heart ache as I shook my head and went inside avoiding her questions. She made me some coffee as I got comfortable. Father was probably working at our company here in California.

My mother came in and sat down besides me and handed me the coffee cup. "Xavier, what's wrong? Where's Iris? Tell me," she asked concerned. I sighed and told her the truth. I told her that Iris is four months pregnant and now she's kidnapped. I came here to California because the bastard took her here and is holding her captive.

My mother was in tears as she punched my shoulder. I hated seeing her cry. "Why didn't you tell me! Poor Iris, I can't even imagine what she must be going through." I nodded my head as a tear escaped my eyes. Fuck. Being emotional wasn't my thing but when it came down to the people I love, my barriers break.

My mother and I finished our coffee and I immediately left after saying goodbye. Who knows what this lunatic would do to Iris which is why I shouldn't waste more time. I called Ryan and asked him for Iris's exact location as he sent it to me and wished me luck. I already had back up just in case I wouldn't already kill the guy right when I see him.

I drove off to the location and saw houses nearby. So this weird lunatic kidnapped Iris and took her in a neighborhood?

They must really be stupid. I made sure I parked my spare car at the end of the street so no one would get skeptical. Perks of being in a mafia and knowing little things like these. I got out and walked towards the address Ryan sent me.

The house looked like every other house. Nothing more nothing less.

I made sure I had back up just in case things got dirty. I placed my hand over my gun pocket making sure I was prepared for what will happen. Here goes nothing. I walked towards the door making sure no cameras were around. I found none and knocked on the door. No answer or sound on the other side. I rang the bell. No answer again.

I was about to break the damn door open until I heard someone unlock it. I immediately took the gun out and placed it behind my back. The door opened and I was met with the dumbass who decided to take what's mine.

Mathew. Wow, really? I knew I shouldn't have fell for his tricks but I had to play dumb because of Iris. He looked confused and tried to close the door but I was fast enough to aim my gun at his head.

He stopped doing whatever he was about to do and looked at me angrily. What a loser. "Where the fuck is my Iris?" I asked mockingly. He clenched his fists and pointed towards the staircase. I raised my eyebrow and walked inside not losing eye contact with him.

"Put your hands behind you back, " I ordered. He decided to be a dumbass and challenged me by not doing so. Wrong choice. I shot the wall next to him which caused him to flinch and do what I said. That's right, pussy.

I took out handcuffs and put my gun back into my pocket. He struggled trying to get out of my hold but was not strong enough. After I was done I gave him to one of my men standing outside. Well, that was easy.

I ran up the stairs and found multiple doors. I opened each one of them but they were all empty, except for one. I tried opening it but it was locked. I went back downstairs and took the keys out of Mathew's pants. Of course the keys would be there.

I smirked at him and went back upstairs and opened the door. I looked around but found nothing. I went into the bathroom and saw Iris sitting in the corner with her head in her arms.

I sighed in relief and slowly walked towards her. I don't want to scare her more than she already is. "Iris, baby I'm here," I whispered as she looked up and sighed in relief. She immediately got up and hugged me. Oh how much I missed her familiar and intoxicating scent.

"Oh my god I thought I was gonna die," she whispered not letting me go. I chuckled and hugged her for what felt like forever. "I won't let anyone do that to what's mine." She pulled back and nodded.

My lips immediately met her's as I explored her mouth. How much I loved to do this. She moaned and bit my lower lip causing me to moan. Damn, she's driving me crazy.

If I don't stop now I will lose control. Luckily Iris pulled back and smirked at me. Wow, just wow. I lowered down and kissed her belly while she massaged my hair. This was what won me over.

I raised my eyebrow at her and whispered in her ear, "This isn't over." She nodded and took my hand before leading us downstairs. Well, at least I got a good view of her ass again.

She saw Mathew and looked confused and sad. He looked away from her in which she did the same. We walked towards my car in complete silence. If that bastard did anything like touch her in a inappropriate way I will not resist the urge to kill him. As much as I was dying to know I had to give Iris some time to calm down.

We arrived home after the silent car drive of me catching a glimpse of Iris here and there. She was in deep thought. The rest of the day we caught up on things like me telling her that I had a tracker on her ring. She was shocked but relieved that it came in handy. I told her about my journey into finding her and she slowly opened up to tell me her's.

The fact that Mathew liked Iris didn't surprise me but I thought he would be a big boy and get over it. I thought wrong. The bastard didn't hurt Iris or touch her in a inappropriate way which was a relief.

Iris and I decided Mathew won't be going to jail but will have charges held against him. He got lucky.

While I was in California, Ryan also gave me some background information about her family and found out something that would break Iris.
