Leonardo shifts my singlet up and exposes my boobs, startling me. Before I can cover myself or fight him off, his lips latch onto my nipple, making my heart jump out of my body. His hand is also caressing my thighs, messing with my brain. I shake my head to chase away the feelings and immediately slap him.
He looks up at me and bites his lips, looking straight into my eyes.
“I couldn't stop myself, I'm sorry.” He whispers without sincerity. He will definitely do it again if he gets the chance. He fishes out a clean white handkerchief from his pocket and wipes the liquid from between my legs, carefully drying my panties.
A bell goes off in my mind as I realize what I just did. I let my brother's murderer touch and pleasure me. I'm damned.
“You, do you take me for a slut you can toy with as you please?” I growl angrily, quickly adjusting my clothes as tears sting my eyes.
“No sweetheart. You're my angel. You're the only woman I have touched in many years. I…” He sighs at this point.
“I don't know how to explain it to you. Just know that you're special and very important to me. Aurora, I think I love…”
A loud scream comes from the other side, and I can't be more glad for the much needed interruption. I turn to look and see William pounding into one of the girls from behind while she kneels on all four, screaming and shouting like one under torture. There is whitish liquid staining the area they were joined and more pumps out as William thrusts into her, even dripping down her thighs. He spanks her ass at intervals, as she screams, asking for more. The other girl was sucking the boob of the girl being fucked, while touching herself. The first girl was equally touching herself where she was joined to William, moaning with her eyes shut. I make a face at the disgusting scene. She lets a woman suck her boobs and kiss her lips, while intermittently returning the favor. She's bisexual.
The other girl suddenly lies before her with her legs on the girl's shoulders, bringing her private part to the face of the girl being fucked and spreads it with her fingers, as if inviting her. My mouth opens in shock as the girl adjusted her position, licking the other girl’s private part as William pounds her from the back. Her moans of enjoyment fill the room and I can't determine if the reason for her moans is William behind her, or the girl she’s sucking.
A hand covers my eyes from behind, blocking my vision.
“An angel like you shouldn't watch such debauchery, although you seem to like it.” He whispers and licks my ears, making me blush in shame.
“If you want to experience it, I will arrange it for you. But not these kinds of people. They need to be screened and ensure they're healthy. However, I don't think you will have the time for that. My cock is enough to keep you high forever, Amore mio. Let's go back, enough adventure for today. You need to go home now. We don't want mom to know you have been a bad girl today, do we?” He whispers, making shame wash over me.
“Leonardo, I won't change my mind. I will marry William. Please, don't contact me again. What happened today is wrong, and will never happen again. We don't have a future together.” I whisper and turn to leave, knowing he's chasing after me. William and his group were too busy throughout to notice that someone was watching behind the screen. And once again, I feel that painful ache in my chest.
****
Two days later, William finally made time to see me after I begged him for two whole days. I'm standing before the faculty of arts cafeteria. This is William's favorite meeting spot. I see someone waving at me and look up. It's William, with a bouquet of pink roses in his arms. I used to love it a lot, thinking it was a sign of his unending love and devotion. But now, I recall I once told him that my dad buys my mom a bouquet of pink roses each time he does something wrong to my mom, to apologize in advance, even if she never finds out. Now that I think about it, he must have brought it each time he cheated, which was nearly all the times we met up.
“Rorie! Did you miss me?” He whispers and tries to kiss me. My stomach churns as memories of him licking someone's private part flashed before my mind. Before I can stop myself, my head turns of their own accord, making the kiss land on my cheek instead of my lips.
I take a deep breath, reminding myself that I also let Leonardo, my brother's murderer touch me, and even enjoyed it. Hell, the past two days, I have woken up quite a few times with my panties soaked from dreaming about Leonardo. This morning, I had woken up with my legs spread and my fingers between my legs. I had kicked off my panties some time in the night during my wet dream. Luckily, I always keep my door locked while sleeping. Otherwise, I won't know how to explain to my parents the reason my gown is pulled to my waist, with panties gone as I touch myself. Sometimes, while bathing, I think about that disgraceful memory and find myself caressing my boobs. For the first time in my life, I did something as evil as masturbation. And it's all because of that demon. I guess associating with a demon does rub off on people.
Of all people to make me think of such dirty things it's Leonardo Cassano, a demon connected to the death of my only brother. Now that I think about it, compared to William, I'm the worst sinner.
I take a deep breath, hardening my resolve. I have to get married to William. That's the only way out of this mess. As for the cheating part, I'm sure he will change after marriage.
“Did you miss me?” William asks again, kissing my neck. My skin crawls in disgust, unlike the pleasure I felt when Leonardo did it. Aurora, get it together. It's impossible between you and Leonardo. You better forget what you saw and get used to William’s touch.
“What do you think?” I whisper, being vague about it. I hate lies, and hate lying to someone even more. However, I can't admit to him that a certain demon occupied my mind for the most part. And that I only thought about him at intervals.
“Let's go in.” He whispers and takes my hand, making his way to a private booth that he always reserves whenever we come here.
The table is already set. He probably called them before we arrived.
“Let's eat first, then you can talk to me.” He whispers with a charming smile and caresses my face.
I nod with a smile and begin to eat. But I have no appetite, food is the least of my problems at this point.
William smiles and caresses my lips.
“What's wrong? You look worried.”
“William, can we bring our marriage forward? Maybe next week?” I whisper, not hiding the desperation in my eyes.
“Ah? Why the rush? I'm not ready now.”
“Do you remember the psycho I told you about? He's still stalking me. I need to get married so that he will give up. If we waste any more time, he might do something crazy to trap me.”
He sighs helplessly, as if in deep thoughts.
“The company is not doing well nowadays. A hasty wedding will not look good, and I don't have enough resources to fund a wedding at this point.”
I quickly hasten to reply, placing my hand over his to reassure him.
“It doesn't matter, I’m not materialistic. I don't mind a small ceremony, let's just get married first. We can make our anniversary big to make up for the hasty wedding. I have a little money saved up, I can add it to whatever you have and manage it like that. You have always said you want to marry me. You won't hesitate now, right?”
“It's fine. Since you want to marry me so much, I have no complaints. You only need to do one thing for me. And after it's done, I will hold the wedding.” He whispers, smiling at me. I suddenly feel terrified for no reason at all as I look at him. His smile looks wolfish, wicked, and calculative, making my blood run cold.

AURORA BRADLEYCold sweat covers my skin as I walk out of the elevator holding the contract in my hand. William's condition for pushing the wedding forward was to help him secure a multi million dollar contract with Apex group. According to him, the chairman is harsh but principled, making him soft on women, which will make it easier for me to secure the contract. If he goes himself, it may not go smoothly. All these seem fishy and irrational to me, but securing the contract is the only way I can escape that psycho.Once William gets the deposit from the company after I secure the contract, he will add a part of it to my savings to finance the wedding. I have to push on to secure our future. Apex group is one of the most powerful conglomerates, securing a project from them will help William to upgrade his family's company, and our children won't have to suffer.

AURORA BRADLEY'S POVHis offer to make a bet made me truly suspicious. Leonardo never takes on a challenge he's not sure of winning. Whatever happens, he will do everything to win. He's one of those people that do not have a bottom line. “What shameless and underhanded scheme are you concocting this time? What guarantee do I have that you won't try to manipulate things to your favor?” “Everything will be transparent, and you will be the sole judge. I will always stay here with you. When will I have the time to pull a fast one on you? I don't know what you heard about me from the tabloid or your parents, but I'm not a terrible person. I may be ruthless, but I'm a man of honor. I never act despicable.” He whispers fervently, holding my shoulders as his eyes begs me to believe him and give him a chance. “Fine. How do you want us to do it?” I mutter, looking everywhere but at his face. “That bastard sent you here as an offering to secure the contract. His intention which he relayed to
AURORA BRADLEY’S POVIn the past, whenever I saw William happy, I instinctively felt happy for him too. But not this time. I feel so disappointed that he was more interested in the contract than in my well-being. “William.” My voice finally attracts his attention, for he clears his throat and looks at me. But the way he's looking at me is different from the past, there's almost a hint of disdain. “Mmm. You did well. Good job. Let's go.” He says in brief sentences and quickly turns around, holding the contract like some treasure. I follow him not wanting to be left behind. “Disgusting. He's willing to betray his girlfriend for money. He doesn't know that the boss hates people like him the most. The idiot will learn the hard way.”“Poor girl, such a beautiful gem ended up in the hands of a pig.” I heard the guards whisper. At once, tears cloud my eyes and I begin to feel sorry for myself. Even the guards witnessed my humiliation, where will I put my face?****I just opened the fro
AURORA'S POVI think I'm mesmerized by the sight of him. It seems as if I just summoned a demon from hell to fight my battles. I hate the sight of blood, but at this moment, I can't help but cry in relief as I see the blood staining his hands. Knowing that it belongs to the beasts who wanted to devour me. He throws the thug away and he hits the wall convulsing. His men who were chasing after him finally catch up and fall on the thugs, giving them the beating of their lives. The sound of crushing bones suddenly doesn't feel offensive to me, I like it even. Leonardo pulls me into his arms and I break down, bawling like a baby and letting out all the tears, fears and resentment in my heart. I forget my animosity towards him and hug him tightly, crying my eyes out as he pats my back, whispering soft words of comfort that I'm really not paying any attention to. “My baby, sweetheart, don't cry, you break my heart. Shush, I will make them suffer a pain worse than death for having such tho
AURORA’S POV“Why isn't he here yet? How long does it take for a man to dress up and enter the damn car?” Rosa asks, pacing around. “Stop pacing. Why do you look even more worried than I, the bride?” I reply, pretending not to be affected. Mom and dad are looking very worried, Rosa my cousin isn't doing anything to hide her anxiety. I was also uncomfortable, knowing that William is already two hours late to such an important event. Is he bailing on me? I sigh and turn to my dad“His parents are already here and greeted the guests with you two. Something must be delaying him and his friends. Just instruct the caterers to entertain the guest. And also tell the guests that they were held up by an emergency and will soon be here.” I say calmly, trying to take control of the issue. Deep inside of me, I'm also nervous. But a tiny part of me is relieved that he didn't show up. Enduring the shame of the wedding not going through will pass away, but not that of a failed marriage. Rosa's ph
AURORA’S POV“William, what are you doing? Let her go!” My father shouts, rushing to separate us. William pushes me to him and dad quickly catches me. “William, I always thought you were a good child and supported my daughter's relationship with you. I never imagined that you are the kind of man that will raise your hands against a woman.” My dad whispers, not hiding the pain and disappointment in his heart. My mom also rushes to me. “Son, it's fine if you're angry with her. But is there a need to humiliate her like this? If you quarrelled with her, there's also a chance to settle things. If you fell out of love, you could have cancelled the wedding before today. If you suddenly realized at the altar that you were not ready, respectfully declining would have been okay too. But why did you choose the most painful way to humiliate our daughter? Yes, we're not from the same class. But we have never hidden our financial capabilities from you, we don't live fake life. Nor are we beggars
AURORA’S POVI rush to my father, taking his hand to check his pulse. I breathe out a sigh of relief when I feel his pulse. However it's very weak, far from steady. I quickly turn to the crowd to see if anyone can help us move him. However, dad's colleagues are nowhere to be found. They probably left when things got noisy. The ones remaining are gossipy neighbors and relatives, and those have no car. The rest were from William’s side, and I don't know any of them. “Rose? Where is she?” I shout, turning to mom. “Her boss's assistant arrived earlier than expected, she left when your dad was walking you down the aisle.” Mom replies with tears in her eyes. The boos from the crowd, laughing at me and telling me I killed my father make me feel like trash and I blink back tears, gritting my teeth to hold back the painful emotions. I quickly reach for my purse to order a ride. “There are fifteen orders ahead of you, you will be placed on queue. The wait duration is thirty minutes.” The a
AURORA’S POVI look at Leonardo who is sitting at the other edge as the car sped towards the hospital. He suddenly smiles as if he thought of something funny, looking out the window, and this time, the smile is genuine and unintentional. “Psycho, why are you here?” I ask, putting on what I hoped was an intimidating no-nonsense expression. He turns to me, no longer smiling. “What's with your attitude? Is this the gratitude you are meant to show your savior?”“Answer me.”He ignored me and reached for his phone, treating my words like air. I huff in anger and turn the other way. After a while, I hear him chuckle and turn. “I heard the little bunny was getting married and rushed to stop the wedding. Who knew that the doomed wedding would stop of its own accord? Hahahaha.” Leonardo utters, his lips curling up in that annoying smirk that made it obvious he was mocking me. I roll my eyes, hiss, and turn away. He can insult me all he wants, I deserve it. “You actually thought a weddin
