    mming the door open Amelia entered Xander''s office making him startle at first but then he nkly


    looked at the file that she threw in front of him on the table.


    "You seriously filed a restraining order against Liam." She questioned making him sigh out. He leaned


    his back on the chair before crossing his arms against his chest.


    "Yes, I did." He emotionlessly replied making her look at him in disbelief.


    "And who asked you to. I just came to know about it when yourwyer asked for my signature. What''s


    the purpose of doing this Xander."


    This time he stood up from his seat walking towards her. "Then what do you want to do then. Did you


    have any n then? I mean isn''t it obvious that man isn''t stopping and there is something needed to be


    done so for some time he would stop all these shits."


    Hepleted his words standing in front of her. She pinched the edge of her nose pissed off at his


    actions.

    "I am not saying that what you did was wrong. But you do know that this matter is rted to me and my


    permission should have been taken before making this decision. I am tired of you trying to control my


    life, Xander."


    Xander didn''t say anything he can easily see how angry she was. This was the first time he had seen


    Amelia being pissed off. And he weirdly was enjoying it.


    "Yesterday whatever you said I ignored it because I don''t care. But I think my ignorance is giving you


    wrong hints. So let me clear it well for you Mr. Storm."


    She took a step forward leaving almost no distance between them. Xander''s eyes moved down a little


    so he could keep eye contact with her.


    "I am not yours. I married you and became Mrs. Storm for only Alexander. I am your wife and I do


    respect our rtionship. I will never let another man touch me when I ammitted. But what


    had decided to not intervene in each other''s matters. I am doing it but your not. And I swear if you have


    some limit then I do too."


    Xander''s lips twitched a little from the side while amusement filled in his eyes maintaining powerful eye


    contact with her. She wasn''t intimidated by him today instead she was trying to intimidate him which he


    liked a lot.


    He liked his wife having control over him. Weird.


    He bowed his head down a little so he coulde face to face with her. She didn''t back away instead


    let him lean forward.


    "And what''s your limit Mrs. Storm." He whispered against her lips and for a second Amelia was shook


    but again she reminded herself to not let him empower her.


    "You wouldn''t like to see it Mr. Storm."  She whispered in reply and this time Xander left surprised at


    how confidently she replied and again he liked seeing this side of his wife.


    "Last time Xander. Stop interfering in my matters. Especially Liam''s. I will personally handle him. And


    about this restraining order, I am signing it because I don''t want him near me but do remember I


    wouldn''t stand you making decisions for me without asking me in future."


    She said with a stern tone and hard gaze. Xander blinked nodding his head making her step back from


    him sighing out.


    "Goodbye, Mr Storm." With that, she walked out of his office making him sigh out.


    "Goodbye Mrs. Storm." He whispered to himself staring at the closed door.


    "This woman is dangerous. Really dangerous." He mumbled shaking his head. He couldn''t believe he


    found her hot. But she looked damn hot indeed.


    Chuckling at his thoughts he went back to his work but not for once Amelia left his mind. He always had


    this weird fetish of having a woman who could stand in front of him without any fear.


    Mia was always a sweet and innocent type of girl. Xander had been always the dominant and


    intimidating one in their rtion. But still, he loved her beyond anything. He knew somewhere in his


    heart the need to be loved is still there.


    He just wants to be loved. For once. He wants someone''s touch on him without any greed or hesitation.


    He wants someone to show him that he is not alone. There is someone whose right beside him in his


    darkness trying to lighten up his dark life.


    But maybe he was cursed to live like this. And can he me someone? Wish he could but he knew


    better than no one''s responsible for his empty heart except himself.


    "Angel today grandfather ising I am so excited." He said happily pping his hands while Amelia


    smiled at him caressing his hair.


    "And what about your grandmother," Amelia questioned and instantly smile fell from Alexander''s lips


    recing it with a sad look.


    "My grandmom is not alive. She died before I was even born." Amelia instantly felt guilty for questioning


    him. The topic seems sensitive to the little guy. She gently pulled him on herps and he without any


    protest ced his head on her shoulder.


    "It''s ok Alex. She''s in a good ce. Always pray for her to have peace." He nodded his head smiling a


    little. She kissed his forehead making him snuggle in her neck.


    "Angel where is your family." Amelia stiffened a little before rxing her muscles and continuing


    caressing his back.


    "My parents went to the same ce where your grandma is. And I have a younger brother Harry." She


    said with deep pain. Alexander excitedly looked at her.


    "I have an uncle. I want to meet him. Why don''t you bring him here." Tears formed in her eyes but she


    held them not wanting Alexander to see her crying.


    "He''s not here. He''s right now somewhere far away. But I promise as soon as he wille back I will


    make him meet you hmm." He nodded his head with a wide smile while Amelia sighed heavily.


    They both heard noises from outside and without another word Alexander jumped off herps running


    downstairs. Amelia yelled his name to be careful but he was too excited to meet his grandfather.


    "Alex be careful." Amelia came down as well only to witnessed an old man standing there. His hair


    were white and wrinkles were all over his features. His deep blue spheres met her grey ones.


    He looked like an old version of Xander. His father. Alexander jumped in his grandfather''s arms and the


    man smiled widely picking him up and throwing him in the air earning giggles from Alex.


    "Be careful Father." Smile fade away from the old man''s face as he turned towards his son. Xander


    stood beside Amelia. He was wearing sweatpants and a hoodie getting ready for bed.


    "I don''t want you to get a fracture now. Do I." He said nkly pissing off the old man.


    "I am young enough to still flip you on the floor and fracture some parts of your body instead son."


    Amelia heard the  sarcasm in the old man''s words when he said ''son''


    Xander snorted looking away. "Grandpa look that''s my angel I was telling you about." Mr. Storm finally


    looked at Amelia who smiled at him politely.


    "So your Amelia. Who had made our Alex crazy over her." A small smile appeared on the old man''s lips


    as he said those words. The smile was genuine which made Amelia to reciprocate it.


    "Hello, Mr. Storm I am Amelia kale." She mumbled her surname ncing at Xander only to find him


    sighing in frustration pissed off hearing kale, not Storm.


    "Hello, Amelia just call me Noah." She smiled nodding her head. Noah didn''t for once give any


    attention to his son. He kept on talking to Amelia and Alex. And somehow Amelia noticed Xander''s sad


    eyes looking at his father.


    Xander was staring at his father with longing swirling his blue eyes. How much he wished he could hug


    his father but he knew his father will never reciprocate it. After all, he still is a guilty man in the eyes of


    his father.


    "Wow, that''s awesome. You know I am still interested in business and all. If you want I would love to


    buy some shares from yourpany after all I can see you will build a sessful empire." Amelia


    smiled nodding her head.


    "Sure, Noah. I can exin to you everything about mypany''s policy." Noah nodded and they both


    started discussing the policy. Soon Alexander fell asleep on Noah''sps.


    "You two can continue your discussion. Let me put him on the bed." Amelia nodded but Noah ignored


    his son gently picking Alexander up and asking Amelia for his room.


    Amelia looked at Xander who nodded his head telling her to obey his father. She escorted him to


    Alexander''s room and Noah tugged him in.


    "Thank you."


    "Huh for what," Amelia asked confused at Noah''s sudden words.


    "For taking care of him. Alexander was always an introvert type kid. But when I met him this time I


    couldn''t believe how much he was changed. He started ying. Talking more than before and even


    smiling like he never did before. And it''s because of your care and love."


    Amelia smiled nodding her head. "Of course every child wants love and attention. But I wouldn''t take


    the whole credit. Xander has been doing everything to put a smile on Alexander''s face. And I can see


    the main reason for Alexander''s happiness is Xander''s continuous attention."


    Noah''s smiled wavered a little but didn''t fade away. He nodded his head and Amelia showed him his


    room but before she could go.


    "Noah I wanted to say something." Noah nodded his head.


    "Like I said. Every child craves love and attention. Don''t do this Noah. You have a child too. Your son is


    yearning for your attention." Noah''s eyes harden as he sighed heavily.


    "You don''t know Amelia what he has done. I--"


    "Your right I don''t know. But I know that he yearns for one look of affection from you. From his father. I


    don''t know how grave a mistake he has done but I know one thing that you have punished him enough.


    His eyes look lifeless like he has no will to be happy again. Don''t do this to your son Noah."


    She breathed out pausing a little. She can see that her words were affecting him as his eyes soften a


    little.


    "You already had pushed him to the edge of his breaking point and in the dining room, I could see how


    he was holding himself not to cry out. His eyes were screaming for your attention only one look of care


    from you. I don''t want you to forgive him if he doesn''t deserve to. But at least don''t put him in this much


    loneliness."


    "Don''t push him this deeper that in the end you wouldn''t be able to get him out even when you want to."


    Silence crept in the room only to be broken by a meek whisper of Amelia "Goodnight."


    With that, she walked out of the room leaving the man stunned and shocked on his spot.
