186 How to mend a past relationship

Xavier attended the funeral as the representative of the huntsman, along with Darla and one other huntsman, they were sitting in the middle row, but his eyes still catches on Anne who was sitting in the front seat with all the family of the victims. He saw Anne trying to comfort Leo, who was a mess up and having a conversation with Nathan.

He never catches on to any of the prayers, because his eyes never waiver from the beautiful young woman in front, the young woman with her long purple hair, who always catches his attention.

“Makes you think a lot about life, doesn’t it?” Darla was whispering through him.

Xavier turn his attention to her and scoffed, “What’s with you and a sudden interest about life?”

Darla shrugged and smirked at her captain, “Probably having a lover really rubbed on me.”

“Oh yeah, where is he, anyway?” Xavier asked her, while looking around.

“He wasn’t coming. Something about his beloved primary captain stuff.” Gruntled Darla at Xavier.

“Oh, come on, it wasn’t that bad. At least you have some alone time with him, once in a while. Am I right?” Xavier reminds her, trying not to be jealous about their loving relationship.

“Oh, come on cap, you have her.” Said Darla while her finger pointed at Anne, “What is wrong with you? Just confessed already.”

.....

“It’s not that simple.” Argued Xavier at her.

Scoffing at Xavier, Darla shook her head in disbelief. “Oh, really? How come? Care to explain it to me?”

“I… look it’s just complicated, alright?” Xavier couldn’t even give her a good reason, because of the secret that they kept between themselves about Anne’s story.

“I need to tell you something, then if you and the other three stubborn friends of yours don’t have any courage. Someone bound to take an interest in her. She is one of the most beautiful girls that I have ever saw, she is also smart and humble.” Darla gave him a piece of her mind. She got restless whenever she looks at her best friends with these four prominent men.

Xavier huffed his breath, rolled his eyes, and spoke to Darla with a glare, “I know, just as much, so your point is?”

“My point is, if all of you never take some action at her, I am sure the other will surely be happy to replace you in her heart.” Darla gave Xavier the same glare, she will never back down from this debate, “My best friend needs someone that could give her a life and happiness, not someone who just thinks to give her a casual flirt and then disappear only to come back and make the same mistake.”

Xavier felt a pang of guilt. He tried to explain to Darla that the decision was coming from Anne, but he was also guilty of not trying to hold her tightly and making it work for all of them. Instead, they let her go and blame her for all of their misery.

When the funeral procession ended, Xavier excused himself from his team. Darla called for him, but the only thing that he said was he was trying to cut any loose ends. The house that Xavier visited after the funeral was a cozy townhouse belongs to a merchant. When a maid open the front door, he asked her if he could meet with the young lady of the house. How surprised the young lady was when she looked at Xavier in her living room.

“Xavier, what are you doing here?” Said Yasmine with a frown on her face.

Xavier stood up from his seat. “I came here to hear your reason, and also to apologize.”

Chuckling, Yasmine asked him to take a seat and after they got comfortable, the young woman began to speak, “It was me who need to apologize to you for almost trapping you into a loveless marriage.” Her teary eyes stared into the cold fireplace. “I was in love with you, and my feelings turn into an obsession. I tried so hard to win your heart, but knowing about the beautiful healer that you were being in love with makes me thought I don’t have any place in your heart.”

“Yasmine… I am sorry.” He felt sorry for her. He felt he was leading her on when he thought he lost Anne forever. The only thing that he can do was drink and flirt.

Yasmine shakes her head, “No, it was me, Xavier, after I failed to make love with you that night, I was so desperate that I took a chance on some random man that I met in the pub, he is the father of this baby.” Said Yasmine while caressing her tummy.

“Did he know? About his baby?” Asked Xavier to Yasmine.

“Yes, he knows. I tell him everything after I received your letter.” Yasmine answered the question with a face that he could describe as happiness, “In fact, we are getting married soon.”

Xavier’s face perked up. This is a piece of very good news for her. “That’s good to hear! Congratulations, Yasmine.”

“Thank you, and he is a good man. Actually, he was my childhood friend, a shy man, but look at me wearing our engagement ring.” Yasmine’s bright smile makes Xavier heave a sigh of relief. She then said something to Xavier, “Xavier, tell Anne about your feeling, I don’t know if it will be reciprocated or not, but at least you’ll know.”

A bittered smile came on his face, “God! What a day. I have two ladies who gave me relationship advice.”

They laughed after hearing about his complaint, and the two of them have some small talk for an hour before Xavier went home. At the front door, they shook hands.

“I’ll invite you to my wedding, make sure you attend it with Anne,” Yasmine shouted while waving her hand at Xavier.

Xavier looks at the streetlight where the orbs begin to glow, the afternoon almost disappears, and a new day for him will also begin.

A month went by, and Anne was having a very busy day at the hospital, Leo was actually pretty worried for her, when they have some time to eat the food, his concern begin when he saw how Anne was always late to eat her food, or not even consumed enough food, her already slim figure now become more prominent.

“Anne, would you please add more nutrition? Seriously, girl!” He was grunting when he looks at Anne’s meal. One bread with a bowl of creamy soup.

“This is nutritious enough, Leo, what do you mean?” Answered Anne with a shrug.

“I gave up, and by the way, captain Arthur came in again, at least said something to him, Anne,” Leo spoke with a grumble. He was too fed up with how intensely Arthur was trying to catch her attention.

“I will speak to him, sorry Leo,” Anne whispered with a small smile on her face.

“Oh, the two of you are here! Good.” Nathan approached the two of them. He looks at the food on the table. “Go to chief Hale’s office when you’re done with your food.”

Leo and Anne shared a glance. When you need to go into the chief office, which means there’s something important happening. They eat as fast as they could, and when the two of them entered the office, Anne was surprised to see Arthur, Henry, Brom, and Xavier inside chief Hale’s office.

Nathan asked them to go inside. Chief Hale was looking a bit pale. He let out a sigh after looking around the room. “I hope all of you will be prepared to hear this news.”

Anne was nervous, there was something important that happening, important and probably not a good news.
