He pulled away from the hug and ran his hands through his hair, Xalia stared at him and he breathed out.
“I have to go to work.” He muttered and was about to walk out of the door but Xalia stood in his way.
“You want to go to work in this state?”
“Is something wrong?” He asked back.
“If you were going to work, why didn’t you leave earlier?”
“You didn’t come down for breakfast.” He replied.
“I… I was scared.” She muttered and he exhaled.
“I have to go now, I will be home early.” He said and walked out without waiting for her to give a response.
“Ugh.” She groaned and fell on her bed. The thought of her being home alone bothers her, she really wished Draven left early but that was when he didn’t talk to her, but now, she really wishes he could stay.

HOURS LATER
With a glass of wine in her hand, Xalia sat at the lounge and stared at the garden in the house, it looked so pretty and healthy. She didn’t know there was a garden in Draven’s mansion because she hadn’t toured the house yet.
She could also see the parking lot and she wondered when Draven was going to get home cause it was getting dark, after a few minutes, the gate opened and Draven’s car drove in.
She felt so happy and giggled, that she rushed out of the lounge and ran carefully in the hallway. She got to the stairs and ran down, she got to the living room and froze when she saw Henry.
“Hey, Xalia.” He called happily and she waved with a little smile on her face.
“Was he the one that drove Draven’s car?”
“Did they come back together?”
“Where is Draven?”
Different thoughts ran through her mind as she stared at Henry.
“You are looking pretty by the way.” He complimented and she smiled.
“Thank you.”
“Where is Draven?”
“Oh, he is on a call, he is… ” Henry trailed off as Draven walked in, Xalia’s face suddenly lit up.
“Hey.” She called with a smile and he spread his arms, she walked to him and hugged him inhaling his scent. He didn’t reek of smoke anymore and he looked a lot better.
She pulled away from the hug and Henry smiled.
“Did you miss him that much?” He teased and Xalia’s cheeks heated up, Draven glanced at her before turning to Henry, he gave him a look and he rolled his eyes before looking away from them.
“Hey, can you go back upstairs for a while?”
“Oh.”
“It’s just for a few minutes.” He added.
“Okay.” She replied and walked up the stairs, as soon as she was out of sight, Henry chuckled and sat on the couch.
“Someone is loving up.” He joked and Draven ignored him as he took a seat next to him. He brought out the gun in his jacket and placed it on the table.
“You like Xalia.” Henry said but Draven ignored him.
“The last part of the transportation wasn’t successful, we lost Marco and a lot of money.”
“Yeah.” Henry replied.
“We need to come up with a new transportation plan or we will keep losing all we have but till then, we have to lay low in that part.”
“So what will we be doing for the meantime?”
“I am taking Xalia with us to Atlanta tomorrow, while we work, she will be with Allison.”
“You know Harrison would want to see her if he knows she is just a few miles away from him.”
“Don’t worry about that.”
“What will you tell Xalia?”
“Huh?”
“She would want to know the reason why we are going to Atlanta out of the blue.”
“Don’t worry about that.”
“Okay then.” Henry replied and stood up, he walked towards the door and suddenly paused.
“Xalia likes you though, in case you are too blind to see it.” He said and walked out of the house.
Draven rolled his eyes and stood up, he walked towards the stairs and climbed them, he got to the hallway and headed to Xalia’s room.
He walked into it and met her on the bed going through her phone, she looked up at him and dropped her phone.
“Hey, are you done?” She asked and he nodded in response, he walked towards her and sat on her bed.
“What were you doing?”
“Nothing.” She replied.
“Give me your phone.” He ordered and she slowly stretched it to him, he took it and raised a brow when he saw it had a passcode.
“The code?”
“My birthday.” She replied and he pressed it in, it unlocked and he went straight to her messages. The only person she had texted was Allison.
He went to her contact and added his too, he went through other things on her phone before handing it back to her.
“You can call me anytime now, only a few people have that contact.” He said and she nodded in response.
“How did you know my birthday?” She asked, looking at him.
“I had to know things about the person I wanted to spend my money on.” He replied and Xalia felt bad at his response, all she did was bow her head.
“Is your butt still sore?” He asked and Xalia nodded feeling embarrassed. He suddenly stood up and walked out of the room, Xalia sighed and ran her hands through her hair.
She felt less like his wife and more like a property to him.
Her door opened and Draven walked in holding a tiny box, he walked to her bed and sat on it.
“Take off your clothes.” He ordered.
“Please… ”
“I am not hurting you, just take them off.” He cut her off and she slowly stood up, with shaky hands, she took off her clothes.
She became unclad in his presence and Draven looked down at her body.
“Lay on your chest.” He ordered and she slowly did, Draven took off his jacket and pulled his sleeves up.
Xalia anticipated what he was about to do.
She suddenly felt a cold liquid on her ass and she shivered, she let out a soft moan as Draven’s hand came in contact with her ass.
“Don’t make a sound.” He ordered and she bit her lip, he used his hand to crease her ass and Xalia moaned both in pain and pleasure.
“I told you not to make a sound.”
“I’m sorry.” She muttered and Draven kept on running his hands on her ass. She suddenly felt his finger in her and she cried out in pleasure.
