Iris's Pov.

My eyes widened in pure shock. I don't know what I expected him to say but this was not it. He's gotta be messing with me.

“And I know these people because I sponsored the reconstruction of their houses as I plan to do with the entire neighborhood.”

Who's this guy and what has he done with Xander King?

I guess my face was showing way too much because Xander raised a brow in amusement.

“What?” His shoulder brushed against mine and my body shivered. “Is it surprising to you?”

“Yes.”

  • Kidnapped By The Mafia King   Chapter 149

    Xander's POV.It was that time of the year when I went to stake out potential clients and impending income and there was no way I was leaving without taking Iris with me. This time, my destination was Russia.Iris slept the entire flight, curled up in her seat. Her pink lips parted as she breathed in and out peacefully. I, on the other hand, had my laptop on my lap. I still had some work to do. We were going to be staying at one of the hotels just outside the city.Angelo wasn't with us because I wanted him to find information about the connection between Iris's father and the men who were after his family. Her dad however, seemed to have covered his tracks very well. All we know is that he owes them money which could mean a lot of things. I had met with him eagerly after Iris told me that he wanted to speak with me the other day thinking he finally wanted to tell me about this. Turns out he wanted to confirm my intentions for his daughter.Sigh.I heard a tired groan from behind the

    Iris's Pov.“Tell me, darling, how's Xander treating you?” She asked, suddenly changing the subject before I could as she took a sip of her drink.“He's treating me very well. I couldn't be happier with anybody else.” I said, smiling sheepishly.“That's good. And you tell me if he treats you with anything but respect, okay?” She said in a serious tone, taking another sip of her drink. I chuckled slightly, nodding my head.“I must be honest though, when I saw you at the dinner in New York, I was shocked.”I frowned.“Shocked?” I asked and she nodded.“From what I gathered about Xander after he came into our lives, he didn't seem the type to show any serious interest in a woman let alone bringing her to our usual family dinners.I quite honestly feared that he would never settle down. That he would never experience the joy of falling in love. But I see the way he looks at you and I don't have that fear anymore.” She smiled, gesturing her fingers towards me.“How?” I asked. Even though I

    Iris's Pov.The dress I held up in front of me was perfect for dinner with Xander's family. It looked formal but also had a casual vibe to it. I matched it with black heels which resulted in an all-black outfit.The dress was made of black satin with thin shoulder straps, the bottom going diagonally right over my knees.Xander had bought me several dresses but this one was not bought with his money and I couldn't wait to see the look on his face when he saw me in it. Personally, I absolutely loved the dress. It was a gift from my mother from her trip.I changed into the dress after doing light makeup. Xander should be here any second and I didn't want to make him wait for too long. After our little ...session earlier, he had to leave again for another meeting. He was a very busy man but I found it hard to notice because he always made time for me in one way or the other.My parents were not home yet and I patiently waited for Xander to come pick me up. Even though I had met them befor

    Iris's Pov.A couple of hours later, I was home alone. My parents mentioned attending an outdoor functionand Julian was out of the house too. I called Xander as soon as everyone was away to pass my father's message but he didn't pick up.The weather was perfect today and I was planning on soaking up every single ray of sunshine.We had a pool at the back of the house and I was currently sunbathing on one of the sun loungers.After a while, I felt the need for a cold glass of water and walked into the kitchen.I was standing by the counter, picking out a glass when I suddenly felt a smack on my ass. I squealed in fear and surprise. When I turned around, I saw Xander standing there in all his glory. He was wearing casual clothes, looking as handsome as ever.“You scared the shit out of me,” I muttered and he stepped closer, his hand still on my ass, caressing the bare skin.“You look absolutely sexy in this, baby.” He said as his fingers grazed over the hem of my bikini.“Always horny,

    Iris's Pov.“Nice try, lady. Nice try.” Xander said as he handed me a water bottle and watched as I drank almost the whole thing. I exhaled heavily as I swallowed before giving it back to him.He walked to the mat again and told me to follow him, so I did.“Alright. I'll teach you a couple of basic fighting techniques and we'll practice together, alright?”I nodded and he started showing me a couple of punches and ways to block them off. He was quite fast so it was hard to follow but I tried to do my best.“No, raise your elbow.”“I am.”He sighed and walked to stand behind me. He took hold of my waist while the other hand raised my elbow as I held my fists in front of my face.His breath on my neck sent a shiver down my body. He chuckled when he noticed. I felt him press his body closer against my back and I tensed.Can he just fucking focus?!I gasped when his hand played with the hem of my shorts and slowly made its way into them, grazing over my pussy.“Is something wrong?” He ask

    Iris's Pov.Right after we had showered, we both went to bed. It was late, about two am. I pulled the duvet over my body. I had one of his shirts on as usual. It was comforting even if he was right beside me all night. I just loved the way his shirts smelled.I felt the bed dip behind me and two strong arms pulling me back. One of his arms wrapped around my stomach, intertwining with my fingers while the other one was under my head. He nestled his face in my neck, inhaling.“I fucking love how you smell.” He mumbled, making me smile.“Remind me again how I smell?” I asked, chuckling.“Like a garden full of flowers.” He muttered in a sleepy voice.I kissed his hand as his breathing slowed down. My eyes closed, falling to sleep as well.~~~The rays of the sun shining through the windows woke me up the next morning. I groaned and turned around, seeing a sprawled-out Xander, still asleep. He was lying on his back, his muscular chest on full display.He was so handsome. Actually, he was e

    Iris's Pov.I hated the way he was looking at me almost as if he missed me. I hated the way my mother was smiling adorably at him. I hated the fact that I noticed how drop-dead handsome he was with his freshly cut hair. I hated how my body tingled and itched when he reached out his hand to me, wait

    Iris's Pov.I smiled at the lady passing by, greeting me as if we were long-lost friends. I didn't know her name. I had never seen her before but I pretended I did. She was probably one of my mum's many friends.Honestly, I should be given a reward for the way I handled this whole facade.Faking a

    Iris's Pov.I shook my head furiously at him.“A mistake is showing up late to dinner, Ethan. But selling me off to dangerous men? That's not a fucking mistake.”“I know.” He whispered. “And I realize that now. I didn't fully know what their plan was and I've been coming in here every single day fo

    Xander's POV.Birthday parties were never my thing. I try as much as I can to isolate myself on my own birthday, much less attend someone else's, even that of Julian and his sister, Iris. So it wasn't a surprise that I didn't know when her birthday was because it was never really something I was in
