The Domineering Female CEO

But I stopped myself. What if she refuses to see me? What if she rejects me? The thought sent a chill down my spine, and I froze in my tracks.

A primal scream of frustration tore through my throat as I clenched my fists and held my head in despair. "Eliana, fuck you! why did you have to leave me?! I hate you!,I fucking hate you eliana!" I yelled, my voice cracking with emotion.

In a blind rage, I swept my arm across my dresser, sending everything crashing to the floor. My room erupted into chaos as I vented my anger and heartache, shattering the silence that had consumed me for so long.

As the storm of my emotions slowly began to subside, I stood amidst the wreckage of my room, my chest heaving with exhaustion. The silence that followed was oppressive, punctuated only by the sound of my ragged breathing.

I looked around at the destruction I had wrought, and a wave of shame washed over me. What had I done? This wasn't me. I wasn't a destructive person. But the pain of losing Eliana had brought out a side of me I never knew existed.

As I stood there, trying to make sense of my actions, I heard a faint knock at the door. It was soft and tentative, as if the person on the other side was unsure if they should be there.

I hesitated for a moment, wondering if I should answer it. But something about the gentle knock resonated with me. Maybe it was the fact that it was a gentle knock, rather than a loud, insistent one. Maybe it was the fact that it seemed to be coming from someone who cared.

Whatever the reason, I found myself moving towards the door, my heart heavy with emotion. I opened it slowly, and was met with a surprise that would change everything...

As I flung open the door, and my heart skipped a beat as I was met with a pair of piercing eyes that had haunted my dreams for what felt like an eternity. "Eliana?" I whispered, my voice trembling with a mix of emotions.

For a moment, we just stared at each other, the tension between us palpable. I drank in the sight of her, my eyes scanning every inch of her face, searching for answers to the questions that had plagued me since she'd left.

Without thinking, I reached out and grasped her wrist, pulling her into the room with a gentle yet insistent tug. Eliana's eyes widened slightly, but she didn't resist, her gaze locked on mine as she stepped across the threshold.

As soon as she was inside, I released her wrist, my hands balling into fists at my sides. I took a step back, my eyes never leaving hers, and demanded, "Why are you here?"

Eliana's gaze faltered for a moment, and she looked around the room, taking in the chaos and destruction I had wrought in my anger. Her eyes lingered on the shattered remains of my belongings, and a faint look of concern crossed her face.

When she finally met my gaze again, her eyes were filled with a deep sadness. "I'm sorry," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "I was wrong to leave without believing you. I was scared, and I didn't know how to handle my feelings."

I felt a surge of anger at her words, but it was tempered by the pain and vulnerability I saw in her eyes. I took a step closer to her, my fists still clenched at my sides. "You hurt me, Eliana," I said, my voice low and rough. "You left me without a word, without even listening to me. Do you have any idea how that felt?"

Eliana's eyes filled with tears, and she nodded slowly. "I'm so sorry," she repeated. "I was blind to the pain I was causing you. I realize now that I was running away from my own feelings, and I didn't even consider how my actions would affect you."

I studied her face, searching for any sign of insincerity. But all I saw was genuine remorse and a deep sadness. My anger began to dissipate, replaced by a sense of curiosity. Why had she come back? And what did she want from me now?

As I stood there, my heart ached with the realization that I still desperately wanted Eliana back. But the painful memories of our tumultuous relationship lingered, casting a shadow of fear over my desire. I knew that she had always held the reins, effortlessly manipulating my emotions and shattering my heart at will.

The harsh truth was that I loved her far more than she loved me. My feelings for her were all-consuming, while hers seemed to be fleeting and capricious. I was tired of being at her mercy, tired of being driven to the brink of madness by her unpredictable behavior.

With a newfound sense of determination, I steeled myself against the turmoil of emotions that threatened to engulf me. I knew that I needed to take control of my feelings, to set boundaries and protect myself from the devastating consequences of her whims. I couldn't let her continue to drive me nuts, to toy with my emotions like a puppeteer manipulating a marionette. It was time for me to take back the reins and reclaim my heart.

I took a deliberate step back, physically and emotionally distancing myself from the chaos that Eliana's sudden arrival had stirred up. I knew I had to regain control of my emotions, to make her understand that her actions had consequences.

"Eliana, listen to me," I said, my voice firm but measured. "I know you think you can just waltz back into my life, but it's not that simple. You can't just show up after months of silence, expecting me to forgive and forget."

I paused, taking a deep breath as I struggled to contain my emotions. "You saw me with someone, and you assumed the worst. You didn't even give me the chance to explain. You just left, leaving me to pick up the pieces of my shattered heart."

I looked at her, my eyes searching for any sign of understanding. "I need you to understand that your actions hurt me, Eliana. They hurt me deeply. And I need to know that you're willing to work through this, to rebuild our relationship on a foundation of trust and communication."

Eliana's eyes dropped, and she nodded slowly, her shoulders slumping in defeat. "I'm sorry," she whispered. "I was wrong to leave. I was wrong to not believe you. Can I...can I try to make it right?"

I stood frozen, torn between the desire to hold her close and the need to protect myself from future heartache. My emotions seesawed, as I struggled to reconcile the love I still felt for Eliana with the pain she had inflicted.

"Eliana, I want to believe you," I said, my voice cracking with emotion. "I want to forgive you. But I need to know that you understand the gravity of what you did. You shattered my trust, my confidence, my heart."

I took a step closer, my eyes locked on hers. "I need you to understand that I won't be hurt like this again. I need you to commit to transparency, to honesty, to communication. Can you do that?"

Eliana's eyes welled up with tears, and she nodded fervently. "I will, I promise. I'll do whatever it takes to regain your trust."

I searched her face, seeking sincerity. And though I saw tears, I saw determination too. I took a deep breath, my heart still guarded, but my love for her still strong.

I stood there, trapped in the turmoil of my emotions. Eliana's dominant nature and selfish tendencies had always been a source of frustration, but her love for me was undeniable. Yet, her control over my feelings was suffocating.

"I love you, Eliana," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "But I need to feel secure in our relationship. I need to know that you'll listen to me, that you'll consider my feelings."

Eliana's expression softened, and she took a step closer. "I'll do better," she promised. "I'll work on controlling my jealousy, on trusting you more. But you have to meet me halfway. You have to communicate your needs and boundaries clearly."

I hesitated, unsure if I could trust her promises. But the thought of losing her was unbearable. "Okay," I said finally. "I'll try. But if this doesn't work, I don't know if I can continue."

Eliana's eyes locked onto mine, a fierce determination burning within them. "It'll work," she whispered. "I won't let you go anymore."

Eliana's hands wrapped around my waist, pulling me in with a gentle yet insistent tug. Her lips met mine in a soft, sweet kiss that sent shivers down my spine. I felt my resolve weakening, my heart melting into the familiar touch of her lips.

I knew I would shamelessly accept her back, despite the pain she had caused me. My love for her ran deep, and I couldn't deny the connection we shared. But as I pulled her closer, I also knew I had to set boundaries, to ensure this wouldn't repeat itself.

"I love you, Eliana," I whispered, my voice husky with emotion. "But I need you to understand that trust has to be earned. I need you to work with me to rebuild our relationship, to communicate and respect my feelings."

Eliana's eyes sparkled with understanding, and she nodded. "I promise," she whispered. "I'll do whatever it takes to regain your trust."

I wrapped my arms around Eliana, holding her close as she finished speaking. Her words still lingered in the air, a promise of redemption and forgiveness that resonated deep within me.

As I hugged her, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. It was as if the weight of our past arguments and misunderstandings had been lifted, leaving only a sense of hope and renewal.

Eliana's arms encircled me, holding me tight as we stood there, suspended in time. I felt her heart beating against mine, a steady rhythm that seemed to synchronize our very existence.

The room fell silent, the only sound the quiet hum of the air conditioner and the soft beat of our hearts. It was as if the world outside had melted away, leaving only the two of us, wrapped in each other's arms, lost in the moment.

Eliana's pov

As I stood in Xavier's arms, feeling the warmth of his body and the beat of his heart, I couldn't help but think about the power dynamic between us. I had always known that Xavier loved me more than I loved him, that he was more invested in our relationship than I was.

And I had to admit, I had taken advantage of that in the past. I had hurt him, pushed him away, and yet he had always come back to me. It was as if he was under my spell, and I had wielded that power carelessly.

But as I looked into Xavier's eyes, I saw something different there. I saw a determination, a resolve that I had never seen before. He had made it clear that he was willing to work on our relationship, to rebuild the trust that I had broken. But he had also made it clear that he wouldn't tolerate being hurt again.

I knew that I had to be careful, to respect the boundaries that Xavier had set. I couldn't just assume that he would always be there for me, that he would always forgive me no matter what. I had to earn back his trust, to prove to him that I was committed to our relationship and to his happiness.

As I hugged him tightly, I made a promise to myself to do better. To be more mindful of Xavier's feelings, to communicate more openly and honestly, and to respect the boundaries that he had set. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I was willing to try. For Xavier, and for us.

As we pulled back from the hug, I saw the tension in Xavier's body dissipate, replaced by a sense of determination. Together, we began to tidy up the messy room, the silence between us filled with the sound of rustling papers and creaking furniture.

I knew that the mess wasn't just physical; it was a manifestation of Xavier's emotional turmoil. The overturned chairs, scattered books and tossed-aside belongings told a story of frustration and anger. Anger at me, perhaps, but also at himself.

As we worked side by side, I noticed the subtle changes in Xavier's demeanor. His shoulders relaxed, his eyes softened, and his movements became more fluid. It was as if the physical act of cleaning was a metaphor for emotional cleansing.

I reached out and gently brushed a strand of hair from his forehead, my touch met with a warm smile. "You didn't have to do all this," I said, nodding toward the chaos. "But I'm glad you did."

Xavier's eyes locked onto mine, a hint of vulnerability lurking beneath. "I needed to do something," he said, his voice low and husky. "To release some of this pent-up energy."

I nodded, understanding. "And I'm glad you did it with me."

Together, we continued to clean, our movements synchronized, our silence comfortable. It was a small step toward healing, toward rebuilding our relationship. And I was grateful for that.

As I looked around the now-tidy room, I couldn't help but think about the journey that had brought me here. From Sky City to Jai City, I had traveled with a singular purpose in mind: to win back Xavier's heart.

It hadn't been an easy journey, physically or emotionally. I had faced my own doubts and fears, and had to confront the mistakes I had made in our relationship. But I had been driven by a fierce determination to make things right, to prove to Xavier that I was committed to our love.

And now, as I stood beside him, I knew that it had all been worth it. The distance, the uncertainty, the risk of rejection – it had all been worth it for this moment, for the chance to rebuild our relationship and start anew.

I turned to Xavier, a smile spreading across my face. "I'm glad I came," I said, my voice barely above a whisper.

Xavier's eyes met mine, a warm smile on his lips. "I'm glad you did too," he said, his voice filled with emotion.

In that moment, I knew that our love was worth fighting for. And I was grateful for the journey that had brought us back together.
