"What are you doing Xander leave me," Amelia said desperately trying to get his hands off her wrist but Xander refused to do so. Harshly pulling her body in front of him he reduced the distance between them before letting her wrist go.
"What am I doing. What the hell are you doing Amelia? You came here to meet him. That bastard and that be on daily basis. Are you kidding me?" Amelia sighed heavily.
"Listen Xander. Your misunderstanding." Amelia tried convincing the seething man who did nothing except to look at her with his usual blank gaze but with a hint of jealousy was swirling in it.
"Misunderstanding. I can clearly see what you two are doing Amelia. For the past weeks, I am trying to get your attention like a desperate man but you kept on ignoring me and this. This was what you were busy in. Meeting your ex fucking husband without telling your husband."
Amelia rubbed her forehead using her palm. She was already tired of all the lecture she had given to Liam to make him realize that they both have to move on in their lives.
She felt quite defeated when Liam exclaimed. "Why are you pushing me away like this Amy. Can't you just pity me and give me a chance to at least court you. Try to convince you. Try to redeem what I did. Try to get ourselves back on track. Can't you."
She felt like someone had pulled her heart using a sharp yet slow knife giving her uncontrollable pain hearing his agonized cracked tone. If she says that her heart didn't throb in pain seeing his condition then it will be a pure lie.
She was devastated. For the first time after their divorce, she didn't try to hold herself back instead let herself broke down in front of him. She hugged him pulled him closer to her to comfort his sorrow.
His grief was wrenching her heart every second. He cried burying his face in her stomach while she did nothing except to let her tears trail down to her neck. Their eyes poured a heavy rain of their destroyed lives.
"And can't you pity me, Liam. Can't you see how much you're hurting me by doing all this? Your not only my first love Liam your my friend. My soulmate. My supporter. Your pain hurts me. Your cries hurt me. Don't do this Liam. Your killing yourself and murdering me as well. Please stop this."
She mumbled kissing his bandaged head making him wail even more. His one arm was tightly wrapped around her waist as he was kept on pressing his face in her flat stomach.
After him crying for God knows how long they both stayed in the same comforting position. After almost a year finally, Liam felt the comfort he craved for so long but he knew this comfort wasn't from his ex-wife. It was from his childhood friend who refused to leave him alone in his sorrow.
Without him realizing he dozed off on the bed making Amelia lay him down carefully. She stared at his sleeping face for God knows how long. She loves him. She still does and she knows it. But is love enough to join those broken strings back?
The answer is the same. No. His cheating had left a huge scar on her heart. On her soul. She lost the biggest blessing of her life after catching him finding comfort and peace in the arms of a woman that wasn't her.
Maybe it was a mistake that was the first thing she thought after relaxing her mind but when she heard about him having affair with his secretary. And even caught them in his office she lost the last string of her hope.
Yes, he didn't cheat twice while they were married. But was it so easy for him to jump in the arms of another woman just right after their marriage? She was devastated as well but she didn't seek comfort in others man's arms when there was no one stopping her.
Maybe she was too loyal for her good. Maybe she was too delusional for her betterment. Liam had no idea him sleeping with another woman had left a huge insecurity bomb in her heart.
Was she so easy to be replaced this faster? Was she so easy to move on from? Her heart. Her soul. Even her mind was attacked by numerous painful questions wherever she remembers how he was holding another woman in his arms just like he used to hold her.
And just when she started to move on. At least trying to move on he again jumped into her life telling her how much he loves her. He proved his regret. His remorse. His love in his every effort after the confession of his sister.
But wasn't it too late to do so? He already had disappointed her to the deepest in her heart. Maybe she would have let him court her so he could understand that his efforts are fruitless but she couldn't.
Not when she's now in commitment with someone else. Someone whose her husband now. Yes, indeed she's too loyal for her own good.
She couldn't just let another man specifically her ex-husband to pester her when she's already had vowed her life to another man. A man whose her husband now.
She gave Xander a chance and she will never back off from her decision after all she made that decision by betting on her heart and soul.
As soon as she exited his room she found her raging husband standing near Harry's room only to grab her wrist and pulling her into an empty room near the hallway.
"Wait don't tell me Xander your not thinking that I am cheating on you. Are you?" She questioned in disbelief.
"Aren't you in some way Amelia? Cheating is not only physical sexual contact Amelia. The most bitter betrayal is giving false hope to someone whose trying to enter your life with pure intentions." Amelia stared in his icy spheres as he continued his words.
"I know you love him. You care about him. But was it necessary to ignore me? Not telling me that you're meeting him daily. I am here trying to help you move on with me but I think I was too careless. Aren't I. From now you're not meeting him again."
Amelia's eyes widened a little. "You can't control my life like this Xander. He was in a terrible accident for Christ sakes and you want me to leave him when he needs someone's help the most."
His hand again grabbed her wrist as he pulled her closer staring darkly into her eyes.
"Your husband is forbidding you from meeting that man. And you will listen to me. End of discussion. We are going home now."
With that, he started dragging her. Xander wasn't in his right mind. His possessiveness and jealousy were empowering his brain cells. He saw. He saw how she comforted him. How she hugged him back and that burnt his insides.
"Xander please people are looking. At least listen to me first. Xander, please stop." She tried stopping him but he was too blinded by the rage.
As soon as she decided to just let him drag her and stop her protest her other wrist got caught in a tight grip by a large hand slamming against it. Halting in her track making Xander stop as well. She snapped her head towards the other hand's owner.
Her eyes slight expanded watching angry Liam standing there. His one hand was on his stomach while the other was holding Amelia's wrist. He was looking weak and hardly standing on his feet but his expressions were dark and full of aggression.
"Who the fuck do you think you are. Leave her right now." Liam seethed finally making Xander turn towards the injured man who stood stubbornly on the spot.
Xander's eyes followed from Liam's face to his hand that was on his wife. His wife's wrist. His jaw clenched right away and his grip on Amelia's increased a little as well.
Amelia gulped knowing very well where the situation was going. Xander was clearly out of his mind while Liam refused to get the hint from Amelia's continuous motioning him to just go.
"Liam why are you out. You should be resting. Let's go b--"
"Get your hands off her right now." Xander gritted out in a low yet dark tone but Liam refused to back out. Both of them completely ignored the woman between them who was begging them through her eyes to not create a scene as people turned their attention to them.
"I am warning you little shit leave her. You have no right to touch her." Liam exclaimed tightening his grip on her making Xander smirk through his clenched jaw.
"You have no idea how many rights I have on her asshole. Your the one here who's touching what isn't yours." This time Amelia did nothing except to close her eyes as she knew what's gonna happen next. No one can tame the beast that Liam had woken up by touching her any more.
"Isn't mine? It's none of your damn business. She's not yours as well. LET HER GO RIGHT THIS INSTANCE." Amelia gulped as she felt herself being pulled harshly by Xander making her body fell in her arms.
"SHE IS MINE. AND I HAVE EVERY RIGHT ON HER. ONLY I HAVE. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?"
"FUCKING BASTARD HOW DO YOU HAVE ANY RIGHT ON HER. AND SHE ISN'T YOURS."
"SHE IS MINE. SHE'S MY WIFE. AND I HAVE EVERY RIGHT ON HER. DO YOU HEAR ME? SHE'S MY FUCKING WIFE. XANDER STORM'S WIFE."
This stopped Liam's world and Amelia's breathing while Xander without any other word pulled her out leaving the frozen man standing on his spot. Numb.
