Beta Xavier Costa.

Eleanor Amato - POV

My hand was almost near the doorknob when I felt sparks fly on my arm, so I turned around to see Xavier standing a few inches away from me with his hand tightly wrapped around mine. “You want to humiliate me even more?” I asked him while tears kept flowing down my cheeks.

He roughly pulled me towards him and crashed his lips on mine, igniting the passion and sparks within me. Our mate bond crackled with a new vigor, and I couldn't pull away from him. I felt betrayed by my own body, but I knew that there was no use in fighting. We were devouring each other like this was the last time we were going to kiss.

My hands were entangled on the back of his neck while his hands roamed all over my body. When we finally broke the kiss, Xavier placed his forehead against mine and stared at me with something swirling in his eyes. “Do you think I will let you go that easily, Eleanor?” he murmured.

“Isn't that why you called me in? You wanted to remind me about our mating contract, right?” I asked him, but a smile appeared on his face.

“No, I wanted to do something else,” he whispered as he stepped back and walked back to his desk while I stood rooted to my spot. He opened his drawer, took a lighter, and took the contract into his hand.

“What are you doing?” I asked him, but instead, he lit the lighter and held it toward the paper. The papers quickly caught on fire, and they started burning. Xavier’s eyes were fixed on mine while the contract slowly burnt to ashes.

“I have already fallen deep into this web called love, Eleanor. And I am not planning to let you go anytime soon,” he said. The paper was now completely burnt, but he still didn't let it go.

“Xavier, you are going to get burnt,” I said, but he still didn't let it go till it burnt his hand. I quickly walked toward him and made him put the papers on the floor. “Are you mad! Look! your finger is burnt like a crisp potato.” my heart was beating against my chest while my eyes were focused on his burnt fingers.

“These are the very fingers that typed the contract and made you sign it, Eleanor. And I think it is only right if I burnt them as well,” he said, and this only made me glare at him. I slapped him hard across the face, but he still kept that smile on his face.

“That is for making me cry every night after I signed the contract.” I asserted and slapped him again. “And that is for being an idiot,” I said and quickly made my way to his drawer, took out the first aid kit, took the cream that is used for burns, and applied it on his finger.

“I think I deserve it. You know you can punch me if you want to.” he offered when a smile appeared on my face.

“I only like you for this pretty face, Xavier. If I damaged that, I might just leave you.” I joked, and he gasped at me. “Why did you play with my feelings like that?” I questioned.

“That was never my intention. Before I could explain myself, you came to your own conclusion.”

“But you played along.” I asserted, and a sheepish smile appeared on his face.

“I know, and I am sorry, sweetheart. I will not do that again,” he said as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him.

“You better not. Because next time, I will just leave you for good.” I warned him as I got on my tip toes and kissed him on the lips. It was supposed to be a soft kiss that should have ended, but I guess both of us were craving for more. Xavier’s hand wrapped around my legs, and he hoisted me up as I wrapped my legs around his waist. As we broke the kiss he began kissing along my jawline, making me moan out in pleasure while my panties began to get wet. “Xavier, I…I think we should stop.” I said with a lot of difficulty, but he continued his kisses along my jawline.

“Why?”

“I don't want to take a shower again, Xavier. And I think we are getting late for…” I don't even remember what I was supposed to do. My mind was clouded with lust, and all I could think about was Xavier’s hard cock inside me.

“You won't need a shower, this will be quick,” he mumbled as I pulled him up and crashed my lips on him again. Just as his hand was sliding up my inner thigh, his office door banged open.

“I should have fucking stayed and taken you both out of this house myself.” We heard Marquez's exasperated voice, which made me bury my face in his neck while a low growl vibrated against his chest.

“Didn't your parents teach you to knock before you enter?”

“They did, but if I did that, you would never open the door. Now, let's get going. You two can continue this once you come back home.”

“Fine, you go outside, we will come.”

“No, I am not leaving this space till you two come out of that office.” he was adamant, and I knew that we would not be able to send him out either. Letting out a sigh, I unwrapped my legs from Xavier’s waist and got down. After straightening my dress, I turned around to face Marquez.

“You sure know how to spoil a moment,” I said, and a smile appeared on his face.

“Are you sure you want to come to the meeting with the boner?” I heard Marquez ask Xavier.

“It is all your fault. Now shut up and walk.” I heard Xavier yell at Marquez, and this made me smile. As I walked out of the house, I turned around to face Marquez again.

“Where should I go?”

“To Samuel’s office.”

“Right.”
