1| Gorgeous embodiment of trouble
Xavier gulped another shot of tequ weing the burning acidic taste of the beverage.
Nursing another in his hand he thought about his father''stest phndering with one of his much
younger Mistress, a snobby little girl that he could swear was not a day older than his baby sister
Melissa.
What bothers him more was that he was not in the least discreet about his activities not minding the
embarrassment, the shame, and social death that could cause both his mom, his little sister who still
idolizes the bastard, and the dear Salvador name he has been groomed and made to protect since he
was 10.
Remembering his childhood he grimaced not knowing if he should call that period of his life that, there
was nothing childlike in getting starved for six days straight because he Expressed interest in wanting
to learn how to y the drums instead of the piano sses he was forced to take.
There was nothing childlike about being verbally abused and having to watch your dad hit your mom
whenever she tries to defend you when he hits you, There was nothing childlike in learning how to
speak fluently in 13 differentnguages at 10 while his mates were still learning how to eat properly
without dropping crumbs.
Unlike his father, his grandfather Louis Salvador who had built the Salvador conglomerate with his
hands from scratch was warm and kind,pletely selfless in fact for him Christmas was whenever he
was allowed to go spend some time with both his grandma and Pa, a holiday that does take ce after
a standoff involving his father and his Nonna, An affectionate name he do call his grandma.
And most times Nonna usually gets the upper hand.
His Nonna was an Irish ind girl who was swept off her feet by his grandfather, A story they had told
countless times whenever he and his little sister visited but never grew old.
Despite how refined Nonna was, her ind temper was one to reckon with and she doesn''t take shit
especially from his father. She was tough and was nothing like his timid soft-spoken mother who was
veryfortable acting trophy wife for his insensitive jerk of a father.
He could still remember how she had tried to make up excuses for all his inadequacies. Missed
birthdays, missed graduation parties, his mother always chants her mantra, he is trying to give us a
It still shocks him how she sleeps at night knowing fully well that all those times he was cock deep
inside a tramp and gold digger he had picked on the way rather than spend it with his family, how she
still lives with a man that disregards her, hits her and makes her clean all his mess while she just puts
on a smile and takes it all.
Their home was more like a house, big and cold, it was nothingpared to being with Nonna and
Grandpa where there was love, warmth, andughter.
He closed his eyes his heart still clenching after all these years by the reminder of their tragic death,
Nonna had died of Cancer and Grandpa had followed months after. His mom had said they were
soulmates, inseparable, they had a soul connection and one couldn''t do without another.
He chuckled drily at how his 14-year-old self has beenpletely thrilled by that fantasy and how he
had longed to find someone that made him belong, thatpletes him but 13 yearster and now he
But apart from the fantasy he had allowed himself to believe in, he had also made a promise to make
the Salvador Inc grow in strength, a vow that strengthened with each year that passes, a vow he was
finally having the chance to fulfill now he was the CEO of thepany.
He closed his eyes as the great responsibility he was currently shouldering momentarily resurfaced
dawning on him.
"What I wouldn''t do for your boiled bananas right now Nonna." He whispered wistfully wanting nothing
more than to be the little boy who thought his father wanted the best for him, Go back to the time when
he idolized him not knowing that the man was a selfish maniptor who could love no one but himself,
a cheating scumbag, a failure to fatherhood and a bad husband.
Mr. Dominic Salvador has never been a saint, he was even more disgusting and a pig of a man in his
more youthful years as Xavier remembered in distaste how many times he had walked into a
decency to be discreet.
His father was never one to make mistakes so Xavier knew that histest public misconduct was
intentional and that''s what puzzled him even more.
He emptied the content of the second shot in his mouth hitting the ss against the table with more
force than intended.
"I would have what he is having please." A little unsure voice said behind him.
He turned curiously to see two sets of very spectacr, unsure yet determined coffee brown eyes
starring right back at him.
She winked at him sliding on top of the barstool next to him as the bartender served her a shot of
tequ.
He studied her in her short ck gown, red daring lipstick, and fuck me red stilettos that made her long
legs endless as he couldn''t help but imagine herpletely naked with just the heels on her, wrapped
around his waist.
While he thrust into her against any and every hard surface easing off the rage that was about
consuming him. She was gorgeous but not in the socialite frigid manner he was used to spotting in
most of the drop-dead gorgeous women in his social circle.
He was a business partner and co-owner with Mr stone the owner of lights club and he visited the
ce quite often especially when he wants to blow off some steam and knew her face was not a
familiar one since he had a feeling he wouldn''t forget a face like her''s if he had seen her before.
He smiled at the cute way she was studying the tequ, she looked nothing like the one-night stand
type of girl and on a normal day, a girl with themitment vibes written all over her would make him
run the other direction.
She cemented his thoughts by shaking her head adorably at the taste of the tequ, her mouth set in
a tight line confirming it was the first time she was tasting it and this was not her normal scene which
means she was too good for him.
"God, what do they put into this stuff dog piss?" She asked staring skeptically at her ss of tequ.
He chuckled shocked at the sound of hisughter and even more shocked that it took a woman he
hasn''t known for more than 5 minutes despite the murderous intent he harbored against his father
which involves his fist and maybe a broken nose to produce that sound from him.
"Hi." She whispered tantly checking him out.
"A picture wouldst longer." He cockily muttered not able to help himself at the way her eyes were
drinking in every detail of him so openly.
She flushed, her cheeks turning a bright shade of red giving him another valid reason why he should
leave her the fuck alone, she was hot and unbelievably adorable at the same time, a very lethal
and unaware she was of how breathtaking she looked.
She discreetly tugged at her little dress but as a businessman trained to follow every little movement
and dissect every sound, he caught that movement gathering she wasn''t quitefortable in her skin-
tight gown that was currently making him hot and bothered as he could notice the generous swell of her
breast and her womanly perfect hips.
His instant reaction to her body came as a surprise to him since he prided himself as a man with loads
of self-control, he had met a variety of very stunning women who did nothing for him.
He could even recite a speech while getting a blow job, that was howposed he could be and it
shocked him how one petite woman could disarm himpletely and blow his mind.
"Hi." He mumbled back giving her the cold look that always scared people off, A form tested and
trusted but she didn''t even budge.
Her smile grew wider if that was even possible and her eyes glinted with curiosity shocking him, great!
He just got her even more interested In him.
"Tough day huh?" She asked her expression giving nothing away.
Xavier couldn''t believe he had let his guard down and had not thought of the possibility of her just
acting clueless.
He was a familiar face on social media and the possibility of her not knowing who she was talking to
was almost impossible, the media was always in his business which was not by choice but Xavier has
learned the hard way that being young, good looking, and sessful was good for juicy headlines.
For all, he knew she could be a reporter or a blogger.
"Why would you say that?" He suspiciously asked trying to sound as casual as possible.
She chuckled, the sexy sound like music to his ears.
"Well for starters you are holding that ss like you want to crush it," shemented making him
notice his strong grip on his ss of tequ.
He shrugged and dropped it.
"We have been talking for approximately five minutes and I have watched you take like three shots of
this..." she stopped her face contorted in disgust as she struggled for the right adjective to use on an
alcohol that was making her doubt the sanity of everyone that takes it.
"..... Like what the fuck would make anyone take something so awful and continue?" She asked
genuinely shocked while he reveled in how carefree her voice sounded, it was not refined or fake, she
was not even trying to impress him obviously because she just cursed in front of him.
For the first time in his life, somebody was saying what they wanted to say without trying to make an
impression or get something from him and he loved it.
Xavier has never been familiar with the bond friendship, almost everyone that hung out with him
wanted something from him or with him.
His childhood was not really friends friendly as he was too busy to build that bond and the socialites
who he shared a drink or two with during fundraisers and ssical ball were always wearing big smiles
for his benefit and bending backward trying to please him hated his guts and just wanted him to invest
his money on one of their little projects couldn''t exactly be called friends.
The social circle he run in was filled with fake fucked up people with their make-believe perfect life
sipping champagne, pretending to care while they just wanted to know how deep your pockets were
and how fucked up you are.
He shook his head not believing he was contemting sitting down and allowing a stranger bulldoze
her way into walls he has spent years building, he didn''t make small talks with women, he fucked them,Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
banged them uplicatedly.
"Well guess you are correct." He said standing up and then walking out, desperate to put enough
distance between himself and this gorgeous embodiment of everything he wasn''t looking for but
desired anyway.
