Ex-Wife by Mirah Selim (paper ebook reader TXT) 📕

"Xander look at this dress. Is it looking good? I want to look amazing tonight. I have a gift for Max and--" I interrupted her spitting out something in anger.

"Can you not just again start with your Max this Max that. I am tired of hearing his shitty name from your mouth every fucking second." I snarled getting up from the bed.

She looked at me surprised yet speechless face. She placed the dress on the bed before coming towards me with worried eyes.

"Xander are you ok. For some past months, I am noticing your behaving too much different. And your also avoiding me a lot recently. What happened." That time I just wanted to fell on my knees and tell her that how crazily I love her.

I wanted to yell at her for being so blind. For not able to see how much her continuous ignorance was hurting me.

"Nothing's wrong Mia. I just want you to stop taking that man's name. Especially when you're with me stop mentioning him." She frowned at my words crossing her arms.

"You're confusing me so much, Xander. I don't know what's with you and your no reason disliking towards Max I---"

"Shut up. I told you to not take his name." She flinched at my sudden burst out.

"That's enough Xander. You have no right to yell at me for absolutely no reason. I wanted to tell you something important but I think you have lost your mind right now. Get out and come back when your brain will be in its right place."

She said with a stern tone. That's what I loved about her the most. She never liked disrespect. She hated the most was someone trying to empower her. But today I wasn't having it.

"Why what's the thing you wanna tell me. It will be again about that bastard. Isn't it." Mia turned around to look at me with anger in her eyes.

"What the hell is wrong with you Xander. I had enough of you insulting Max ----" Before she could complete her sentence I grabbed her slender arms roughly pulling her near me.

"STOP TAKING HIS NAME. STOP. STOP. STOP." I yelled right at her face making her look at me with wide eyes. Her green orbs almost popped out of their sockets at my tone.

But I was out of my mind. I felt like digging everything around me. I can't tolerate it anymore. I needed to tell her. I wanted to show her that she's mine. I wanted to make her mine. And I completely lost my mind.

"What's wrong with me. You want to know what's wrong with me. You. Your continuous blindness is doing wrong to me. Why can't you see what you're doing to me? Why can't you find the truth in my eyes? Why can't you see how much you're hurting me, Mia? Why."

I said pulling her more closer to me. Her hands fell on my shoulders. Her elbows stayed attached to my chest but her body was frozen. Only her eyes stared in mine with shock present in them.

"I can't do this. I can't keep on acting like it's not hurting me. Like I am fine with everything. Like I can see you with another man. I can't do this. Not anymore." Her lips started trembling to make me gulp in desire.

I let my one arm slid around her tiny waist pulling closer to the extent that the distance between us got covered completely. Her one foot landed above mine reducing the distance even more but I didn't mind it. Her weight was nothing against mine.

"I love you, Mia. Why can't you see I loved you for years. I craved for you in my every breath. I desire you in my every wish. I love you so much. Why can't you see it."

Tears appeared in her eyes but I had gone too far from coming back. All I had in my mind was now or never. And that thought solely was enough to destroy the last co science I had.

"X-Xander w-what are you. I-I. You. H-how." She stuttered out making me chuckle at how shocked she was.

"Yes, Mia. I also don't know how. When. Why. But I only know that I love you and I want you. I just want you and only you. That's all I know. Please give me a chance. I promise I will treat you better than that man." She shook her head and suddenly I felt a hard tug on my shoulders. She was struggling to get away from me.

"Have you gone nuts Xander? I don't love you. I love Max. I ---"

"DON'T CALL HIS NAME. I DON'T CARE. I KNOW YOU WILL LEARN TO LOVE ME. JUST GIVE ME A GOD DAMN CHANCE." I yelled making her flinch hard in my arms.

I tugged her more against my chest before grabbing her jaw roughly. Her face turned towards me as she stared at me in horror. Her movements got seized when I did something which I never knew I was capable of.

I slammed my lips against hers kissing her as all my life depended on that kiss. I didn't think of the consequences. I didn't think of how much of a disgusting step I took just because of the madness of the mare moment.

Sealing her lips tightly with mine. I let myself fulfil the desire I had for years. I kissed her so hard that it didn't fail to bruise her delicate lips. Her arms didn't stop hitting me and her body thrashing in my embrace but I was too gone crazy to understand anything.

I was too mad to see what the biggest damage I was causing her. And that wasn't the last thing I did.

Roughly jerking her forward in my embrace I moved towards the bed without breaking the kiss. My hands held her tightly on the spot. I tasted her blood. Her tears. I heard her whimpers. She pleaded but I was out of my mind.

We both fell on the bed. Her body got pressed against the mattress while mine against hers. In all of this my leg hit the side table making the lamp fell on the floor. Finally breaking the kiss I placed my forehead on hers breathing crazily.

"S-stop Xander don't do---" Her words got cut short when the room's door got slammed open.

"Babe are you ok I heard the crashing sou---" The guy stood stiff in the door stared at our inappropriate position.

Maxim or should I say Mia's boyfriend stared at us with shock yet hurt eyes. His accusing eyes glared at me then at Mia who helplessly muttered his name.
