Ex-Wife by Mirah Selim (e novels to read .TXT) 📖

A pure feeling of love comes with passion. A passion of holding someone till your last breath. And she wanted to feel that passion for him, not the one that would only come out of sympathy.

But the question is. Can she.

Soon sun shined in its full glory making a man stirred in his sleep opening his ocean eyes only to witness his head being buried in the collarbone of his wife.

He moved his head up a little only to find her sleeping holding him against her body like a baby. He couldn't help but smile remembering last night.

How she held him closer. He kind of expected her to push him away. To call him disgusting. To ask him multiple questions of how low can he stoop to destroy an innocent girl's life. To increase his guilt.

But instead, she did the opposite. She held him closer. She comforted him in his most vulnerable moment. She didn't question him much. She didn't let him feel cold or alone.

She made him feel something. Something he's afraid of feeling again. Something that he didn't want to bet on again. Something that had ruined him before and he was afraid of being destroyed by it again. And he knew this time he wouldn't be able to handle it.

His lips landed on her revealed collarbone as he pecks her soft skin. His father was right. He indeed got a gem without any effort.

"Xander." His head snapped towards his wife who slowly removed her arms from his body rubbing her eyes. The loss of her touch almost made him winced in displease. Almost.

"How are you feeling." She said sitting up on the bed with a small groan as she felt her back numb as his weight was on her all night.

"Damn I am becoming old." She said stretching her arms and rubbing her back with an irritated face. Xander chuckled before sitting up on the bed as well.

"Are you ok? Are you having a headache? Let me make breakfast for you. You must be hungry and the---" Xander placed a finger on her lips making her shut her blabbering.

"Shh. I am fine darling. I was just thinking." He stopped making Amelia hold his hand.

"Thinking what." She questioned making him sigh with a sad smile.

"Your too precious to be a wife of a beast like me. I don't deserve you. You deserve so much better than me but I know I am so selfish that I can't seem to let you go. I just--" This time Amelia placed her tiny palm on his lips halting him.

"Your not selfish Xander. You would have been if I am to choose someone else and you wouldn't let me be and held me against my will. But you didn't. If you being with me with my consent and didn't want to let go is selfishness then I am selfish too." She said making his eyes widened a little.

"I don't want to let you go. I don't want you to look at another woman than me. I won't let you go as well. Then it means I am being selfish then fine I am. And I don't care. I want my husband. I don't care what he did in his past. He makes me happy. I am his happiness and that's enough. I want him to be mine the same way I am his. And I am selfish that now I can even handcuff him on the bed if he said he wants to leave me."

She said everything making Xander's eyes teary. He had never heard anyone tell him this. Her every word made him feel so special. Amelia placed her palms on his cheeks wiping his tears away.

He slowly leaned closer placing his forehead against hers. He thought that she might not accept him after his past revelation but everything was happening opposite of what he predicted.

"How. How did I end having you? How did my fate end up giving a beast like me an angel? How did I end up becoming so lucky? How." Amelia chuckled at his words. She felt her heart racing at his cheesy yet romantic words.

"Damn my big cry baby." She mumbled wiping his wet cheeks making him chuckle.

His eyes suddenly went to her dry lips making Amelia understand what he wants to do. But before he could kiss her.

"Ow." His head snapped to the side when a smack landed on his head making him groan. His shocked eyes stared at his wife in confusion.

"You're disgusting. You just woke up. Freaking brush and shower first. Your breath stinks like a month old dirty socks. Now get lost in the bathroom before I kick you out of the bed." She said glaring at him.

Xander gulped in fear and slowly got out of the bed. He smiled awkwardly at her before taking few steps back.

"Baby relax. I am going. Just relax." He said making her look at him with a blank face. He smiled nervously last time and ran inside the bathroom.

"Damn she's scary." He mumbled to himself while Amelia grinned arranging the bed. She liked having control over him too. It was funny seeing the horror look on his scary face.

While Xander took a shower and stood in front of the mirror. A small smile appeared on his lips. And for the first time in these 7 years, he didn't look at himself with regret or guilt.

Instead, he was debating on how he ended up being so lucky. Indeed miracles happen. And.

She was his miracle.
