Chapter 7.Liam was shocked hearing her words. Has the girl lost her mind? From where she looked like a frigid woman. He needed to know from where this stupid thought came to her mind. Before she could utter a single more bad word about her perfect body, Liam grabbed her hand and pulled her closer, "who told you that you are frigid."Aurora looked down from his eyes, she would rather die than tell him how she felt when Gabriel touched her. She had been humiliated enough for a day. "Answer me, little one!" Aurora snapped her eyes back to him and swallowed the painful lump in her throat. "Nobody told me, it's what I feel, Liam. I never felt anything when…" she couldn't take Gabriel's name in front of Liam. His eyes bored into hers, searching for something. Liam's eyes flashed in anger. He knew she was anything but frigid. He recalled how wild she went on the island when he touched her. The memory of her under him kept him awake most of the night. It was her body's reaction that mad
Chapter 8Liam slipped out of the bed when he noticed that Aurora had fallen asleep. He picked his cell phone and dialled Mike who answered the first ring. "Sir.""Have you caught the man or not?" He asked Mike who was silent for some time then answered. "I almost did sir but…"Liam's body stiffened. "But, what? Have you caught him or not?" "He is at the airport right now sir." Liam ended the call in anger and cursed. "Damn him to hell!" "Try to find out where he is going?"Liam ended the call and dialled Ethan who accepted his call on the sixth ring. "I hope there is good news, Liam."If anything Liam's mood soured even more hearing his authoritarian tone. The bastard couldn't even handle a cheap restaurant owner. "There is good news, your daughter's ex-fiance came to meet her."Ethan on the other end stood up from his chair with lightning speed. "That's impossible. I have handled him.""So what was he, a ghost? Goddamnit, Ethan, do you know what you have done? The man is alive…"
Chapter 9Aurora watched her move out of the room. She didn't know what to do so she remained standing there like a statue. His words were fixed in her mind.My wife, Mrs Aurora Liam Knight!She gulped and forced herself to walk inside the closet. Aurora touched the dresses and as he said everything was up to her size. The dresses were from her favourite designer, the shoes were to her size and the style was just what she wore. The makeup products were from her favourite brand. Every single thing in the closet was customised to her liking. A heavy lump formed in her throat. She swallowed it painfully and with shaking hands pulled out a casual pair of jeans and top. Once dressed she walked downstairs and tried to find Liam but he was nowhere to be found.She thought she was alone in his big penthouse until she whiffed the smell of garlic and herbs. It was clear that there was a kitchen there and someone was cooking. With heavy legs, she walked there and found an old lady cooking. She
Chapter 10.Aurora was going back to her cabin when her cell phone beeped with a notification. She was about to clean the notification bar thinking it was Susan once again but stopped when she glanced at the name of the sender, it was a message from Gabriel. The smile evaporated from her face recalling him but she couldn't do anything about it. Even if she had stayed with him, it would have been a form of cheating. She no longer had Gabriel in her heart, she wondered if she ever had. The attraction, possessiveness she felt for Liam she never felt for Gabriel. Aurora was astonished by her thoughts, shaking her head she opened the message box to read the text.It read: I apologize again for what I said, Aurora. I never meant to hurt you but it was hard for me to accept your decision. I loved you with every ounce in me but now that I looked at our time together, I realised that that was not the right way to treat you. In my fear of losing you, I tried to control you. I apologise for i
Chapter 11"Aurora?" Emily searched for her friend and just as Susan mentioned she was crying. "Why are you punishing yourself and Susan like this, baby girl?" Emily asked, hugging her close to herself. Aurora sobbed in her arms like a child. "Stop this torture and talk to her Aurora."Aurora shook her head in her arms. "No," she sniffed and broke the hug. "I have to be strict with her this time, Emily. I love her but she can't meddle in my business all the time."Emily nodded. "What did you talk to Gabriel about? Did you finally break up with him?" She asked.Aurora nodded. "Yes, it's officially over," She glanced at her friend. She wanted to share the happy news with Susan first, Aurora knew that it was going to hurt Susan. She also knew that Emily would share it with her, she was going to be their connection till Susan learned about her boundaries. Emily sighed. "Look, I understand your point of view but you have to agree it's because of Susan you came out of that unhappy relatio
Chapter 12."Sir, dinner is ready, Do you want me to serve it in the dining room?" Paulina asked over the intercom. Liam eyed Aurora's naked legs jiggling down the bed while she was talking to her friend. She looked a little tense and Liam wondered why?"Sir?" "Send it to my room, Paulina." He ordered and ended the call. Liam needed to talk to Ethan but considering everything, he had to wait for a little more time. Liam went to Aurora to know what was worrying her?"Why did you leave her alone, Em? Was she fine?" Aurora asked, worriedly. "Yes, she is absolutely fine. She told me she wanted to be alone for some time so I didn't push her to come to him with me. We both know her, Aurora. She would be taking out her frustration on a man somewhere. Calm down and focus on your man."Aurora sighed, "it's just…" she started but stopped when she sensed Liam's Presence behind her. "Keep me updated about her, please. I will see you in the office tomorrow," Aurora said and ended the call. "W
Chapter 13Ralph Knight watched the man who was drinking beside her following Susan out. It was clear that she was not interested in him. Usually, Ralph didn't care about incidents like that, he believes that one should always be precautionary. He hated people who get wasted and lose their senses on alcohol knowing they wouldn't be able to handle themselves after liquor consumption disgusts him. But looking at Susan he knew he couldn't ignore it for two reasons, she worked in his legal company and second, she was the best friend of Aurora and if anything happens to her, Aurora would be devastated and its effect would be on Liam which they couldn't afford at this crucial moment when the commission meeting was just two months away.He wanted Liam to marry Ethan's daughter as soon as possible so he followed them outside and he was glad that he did that because the man was about to hit her. The alley was dark but it was not darker than his soul. Ralph Knight moved faster and held his han
Chapter 14Aurora kissed Liam on the nose to wake him in the morning. Liam grabbed her by the neck in a brutal grip, all his reflexes were in action when he felt a soft touch on his nose.Aurora gasped loudly, her eyes broadened at his violent action. "Liam!" She managed to call his name and his grip on her neck loosened."I am sorry," Liam whispered when he saw it was Aurora who touched him. He needed to get accustomed to this thing now that he was going to have her on his bed every night. "What was that? I thought you wanted to kill me." Liam closed his eyes and left a long breath. "I thought you were someone else," he rasped and glanced at her, "I didn't hurt you, did I?" He asked.Aurora smiled. "No!" She replied. Liam nodded and pulled her closer to him. "Good morning, Little one."Aurora relaxed in his arms. "Liam, I was thinking something since last night," she said, tilting her head kissing the crook of his neck. "What is it?" She turned around so that she could look into
