AURORA CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE: IGNITION II
As soon as they entered the house, Liam jumped in front of the television to watch his favorite cartoon channel while Aurora found her way to the kitchen with some of the bags of groceries while Malcolm was behind her with the heavy ones.“Thank you” she said sincerely as he dropped them on the cabinet.“Why don’t you get changed and I will get started on the food”Aura’s mouth hung open in awe and confusion, why was this man showing her different sides of him lately?Now he will cook?“You cook?” She asked with another level of confusion on her face and Malcolm chuckled when he saw her.“Not really, just that your brother’s favorite happens to be my specialty. I heard what you said you were going to cook for him”“Why?” Aurora couldn’t hold herself anymore, she had to ask.“Let’s just say I want to make up for all the insults and mean things I have said to you”“Hmm, I see but you don’t have to though. I didn’t take any of it to heart”He could see the sincerity in her voice and for
AURORA CHAPTER TWENTY SIX: I WANT YOU BACK.
“Welcome boss” his assistant greeted as Malcolm sauntered into the office, he had a grim look on his face and everyone around was weary of him. How dare the Portuguese tell him what to do?“They should be in the conference room in thirty minutes” Malcolm ordered and went into the condo in his office to have a bath.Thirty minutes later, dressed in a pair of casual buttoned shirt and pants he was seated in front of three Portuguese men and their translator was at the table between them.“I thought we had an agreement so why the sudden change of plans?” He asked after a while.“Pensamos que seria melhor ter a reunião hoje, já que viemos à cidade. Lamentamos quaisquer inconvenientes causados” one of the men said and Malcolm had to listen to the translator before he nodded. He could hear a little bit of Portuguese though.“So what do you badly want to discuss?” He asked again and he could see the three of them make eye contact and one adjusting his suit to talk.“Nosso chefe decidiu que as
AURORA CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN: PAIN.
“Papa” Liam squealed excitedly as his father entered the house.“What’s up champ?” Malcolm asked as his lips curved up in a smile and he picked his son from the floor, then he noticed the ambiance in the room. “What happened?” He asked but instead aura faked a smile.“We were just having fun, that’s all”“Did Angeline say something to you?”This time, his voice didn’t sound gentle at all. Did that lady come to threaten her?“She was threatening my sister and saying hurtful things” Ryan said after a while and Aurora prodded him but ignored her and faced Malcolm again.“She told my sister that she wanted her family back and she should stay away”Malcolm sighed as he massaged the space between his brows, what the hell was wrong with ladies?“Did that Aunty say something bad to you mama?” Liam asked but instead she smiled at him.“It’s nothing Baby” aura added and turned to Malcolm who had a grim look on his face, “you don’t have say anything to her” she warned“We will head out now” h
AURORA CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT: PAIN II
“What nonsense are you saying?” Aura began to yell and when she saw them trying to cover Liam’s already stiff body, she ran towards the nurse and grabbed the white sheet from her hand,“Don’t you have any shame?covering a child like that?” She yelled again as the tears poured down in torrent.“Liam?” She began to shake him again, “wake up, mama is here”Everyone in the operating room could see how hurt she was but there was nothing they could do except look at the director for help. They all worked in the same hospital with her but none of them have ever seen her so hyped up.“Nurse aurora” the director called calmly as he walked towards her, he could understand the pain she was feeling, after all he was in the same shoes years ago when he lost his daughter and wife in a ghastly crash.“Nurse aura, you have to pull yourself together okay?if you are behaving like this then how will Malcolm take the news? He asked lovingly and the pain in her heart increased when she heard Malcolm’s nam
AURORA CHAPTER TWENTY NINE: PAIN III
Malcolm was speechless for what seemed like ages,what nonsense were these people sprouting now?“Where is Liam, aura?” He asked again, this time he sounded so downcast and aura didn’t know what to say again. It hurt her to break the news to him.“I am really sorry Malcolm, we lost him. The tumor began to slip out of his brain and followed with blood gushing out of his body and we lost him” it was Aiden who was talking, he was also equally hurt and sad.“Liam” Malcolm muttered under his breath and moved a step backward but he ended up falling on the floor and everyone rushed towards him, “you guys are lying right?” He asked but aura nodded in the negative, and she was also crying profusely. Everyone gathered around had tears in their eyes, this was the lowest they had seen Malcolm.“But…but… he was fine right?I told him I was coming back for him. He should have waited for me” he continued to wail, “he promised he wasn’t going to leave me right? We had a lot we were supposed to do toget
AURORA CHAPTER THIRTY: KEEP MY MEMORY.
Everyone was teary eyed as the casket was being lowered into the ground, even Malcolm could not stop his own tears because that was years and years of his memory being buried alongside his son. The pain of a father losing his son was much more than any other pain. Even Aurora was not left out of the mix, she felt like a part of her died along with Liam and she would never be able to forget him no matter what. The little boy who didn’t even know her but loved her like a mother, how could she possibly forget about him.“Let’s say our final goodbyes” the priest announced and after a while, Malcolm stepped forward with a white rose in his hand.“My dear boy” he began slowly, “I know by now you are somewhere safe and no one will be able to stop you from being happy now. Always know that……” his voice became choked with tears, it was just too hard for him to bid his son farewell. As he was crying, he felt a hand on his shoulder and when he turned he saw Angeline beside him. She also looked v
AURORA CHAPTER THIRTY ONE: FIGHTING AGAINST HIS MIND.
After entering the house, Aura dropped her shoes by the door and walked straight into her room before slumping on the bed.Memories of Liam flooded back into her head and she just couldn’t help it as another set of tears escaped her eyes. The fact that she would never be able to see him again made the pain in her heart more painful. Ever since the two of them got close, she got to experience love in a child’s form and that was the most beautiful feeling in the world but all that is in the past now. She would never be able to see him again even if she wanted to, the happiest days of her life were almost over.Ryan walked into the room with a hot cup of coffee and placed it on her bedside table.“Have some coffee sis, you have been crying for a long time now. You may get sick” he advised as he sat on the bed.“I don’t want anything” Aurora answered in a tear stricken voice and Ryan sighed before taking one of her hands in his.“I understand that you and Liam were very close but even he
AURORA CHAPTER THIRTY TWO: I THINK I AM IN LOVE.
Aurora gasped at the sight in front of her, their clothes were sprawled on the ground in different places while they were both on the couch And were they stack naked right now?She was even too surprised to move and kept standing there.Feeling the light creep up on his face, Malcolm slowly opened his eyes and what he saw made him jolt. Why was Angeline lying naked in his arms? And the worst part was that he was also naked. What the heck was happening?“You should cover up” a voice filtered into his ears and he quickly turned his head to see Aurora’s back and she was already walking out of the house.“Fuck” he muttered under his breath as he quickly stood up and gathered his clothes into his hands. The memories of the night before daintily came back to his mind and he shook his head to remove them. He knew he was drunk and….did they?…. When did she even get here though?“You are already awake?” Angeline asked as she sat up. She wasn’t even surprised to see herself naked on her ex husb

As the huge doors flung open, her father gave her a reassuring smile before leading her down the aisle. This was it, she was finally getting married to the man of her dreams. As Aura walked down the aisle, her hand in her father’s hand, she couldn’t help but look around the whole church. It was filled up and she felt happy that a lot of people came to share in her joy.Then her eyes rested on the man standing at the foot of the altar, he had a huge smile on his face and he looked damn gorgeous. She was getting married to the most gorgeous man in the world and that was a big flex.“Make sure you take care of my daughter” her dad whispered to Malcom who gently took her hands in his.“I promise” the smile on his face was not going away, even Aurora had that bright smile on her lips.“May we begin” the officiating priest announced and the two of them turned to him.“Brethren, we are gathered here today to witness the joining in holy matrimony between Malcolm Hart and Aurora Williams.

AURORA CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN.
It has already been a week since the whole incident, Malcolm helped her to get over it a little bit. Even if she was still feeling the pain, she didn’t want to get him worried unnecessarily. Because of that, she buried the thoughts of her family deep at the back of her head. To her, they didn’t exist anymore. Even Ryan was mad when he found out and he vowed to protect her from all of them, he was still her brother nonetheless. He even told her not to have any single thing to do with that family anymore, they treated her like shit.His exact words were, “you deserve better sis and that’s why God sent Malcolm into your life, the way they treated you shows how daft humanity can be and it’s good you cut all ties with them. They don’t deserve you”That was like a week ago, right now she was seated in her office and working on a few papers. Her wedding preparations were soon going to kickstart and she would be so choked.“Aura” a familiar voice filtered into her ears and she looked up to s

The ding dong of the bell made the woman to Stop what she was doing and open the door. She was surprised to see her daughter by the door and behind her was her fiancé. The man she saw on the television a few days ago.“Mum” Aurora didn’t know whether to fake a smile or keep a stoic face, after all the lady in front of her didn’t fully acknowledge her.“You didn’t tell us you were coming”“I told her not to” Malcolm chipped in, he used that opportunity to study the woman in front of him for a while. She looked well dressed and wasn’t dressed like she was in lack of money.“Come in” she opened the door wider and the two of them entered. There were expensive sofas in the living room and the walls were covered with the family pictures but he didn’t see anyone that had his fiancée in it. Did they hate her that much?“Where is dad?” Aurora asked her mum after sitting down, shs felt like a stranger in her own home and part of her wished she was not there.“He went to town for something and
AURORA CHAPTER FORTY FIVE.
The moment the door opened, Aurora gasped in surprise, this man decorated the whole house and her pictures were everywhere. She thought the surprise was over?“More suprises?” She asked, smiling widely, she couldn’t get enough of him even if she tried.“This is just in preparation for dinner with you, me and Liam. When he was alive, he always told me he wanted to celebrate your birthday like this and now that I have the opportunity, I thought of doing it”Her eyes teared up, even if Liam was no longer alive she always felt his presence. It was safe to say that their bond was eternal.“Do you like it?” Malcolm asked when he saw how emotional she got.“Of course I love it” Aurora answered in enthusiasm and Malcolm smiled. This woman was just so easy to please.“I made all your favorite dishes my lady, tonight let me be your chef”“As you wish”The two of them made their way to the dining room and she was not disappointed. A lot of dishes were sprawled on the table and she had the luxury

The whole venue was already deserted but Malcolm was still having a little chat with some of his business associates while holding onto his fiancée’s hand. The joy was evident on both faces and their joy knew no bounds.After the last three persons left, a swarm of reporters immediately surrounded them, all in a hope of catching a glimpse of the love between the couple.“How do you feel now that you are engaged sir” one of them asked.“Is this marriage going to last forever? Your first wife divorced you” another asked.“How long have you known each other?”“Do you think your first wife is happy with this relationship?”These were some of the questions being asked but Malcolm remained silent, he was not mad at the questions rather he was bracing himself. Aurora was a bit nervous, she never had to face so many crowds before but seeing how Malcolm held onto her hands tightly, she felt a sense of comfort and pride in him. He was showing her that the two of them were going to be together
AURORA CHAPTER FORTY THREE.
“Happy birthday baby” Malcolm said and drew her to an embrace, he could feel her shaking slightly. The surprise was a bit overwhelming for her.“Relax baby” he whispered to her, “I am here okay?”“Why did you do this?”she whispered back to him but he just kissed her on her forehead before gesturing for her to sit on the gold plated chair on the stage.After she sat down, Malcolm turned to the microphone again.“Ladies and gentlemen, you see this woman right here?” He pointed at her with a huge grin on his face, “she came into my life when I didn’t expect and I treated her like trash but she never left my side and my son’s side no matter what. Even on my son’s deathbed, he made her promise to take care of me and I haven’t be more grateful for making her my woman”Another round of applause went up from the crowd again which made aura to tear up.Not only did he organize a surprise birthday party for her but he was also praising her in front of everyone. It was amazing.“I love you so m
AURORA CHAPTER FORTY TWO.
Aurora jolted out of bed when someone splashed a few drops of water on her….Ryan.“Happy birthday sis” he beamed excitedly as he hugged her.“Thank you,” Aurora answered, beaming with smiles. Today was nothing special for her though but since her brother was wishing her well then she must accept it.“I made your favorite and I kept your present on the dining table”“Awwwnn, thanks so much. I will freshen up and come out”“Okay” Ryan kissed her on the forehead and left the room.Aurora sighed, none of her family members even called to wish her a happy birthday. Not like they ever did it but she kind of expected it every year but it was always the same.Just as she wanted to climb out of bed, her phone rang and it was a video call from Malcolm.Smiling, she pressed the receive button and smiled at him.“Good morning”“Good morning princess” Malcolm looked like he just finished his workout and beads were dripping down his body, she couldn’t lie he looked hot, “happy birthday” added an

After aurora was done with her rounds she went over to her office but was suprised to see Malcolm on her chair. “What are you doing here?” She asked him immediately, “what if someone sees you?”“I told Danny not to come in until I am done with my baby” a sly smile was playing across his lips as he talked.“I didn’t know you could be so shameless Malcolm, I had high expectations of you” aurora teased while she sat on the chair opposite him,It was an office she shared with Danny and the latter may come in anytime, she didn’t want to he found in a compromising position.“You purposely wanted to anger Angeline right?”She smiled and leaned forward on her chair,“I just realized she loves attention and I will give it to her”“Hmmm” Malcolm nodded as he stood up from where he was sitting and walked over the table,“You look really pretty today wifey”“Wifey?” She wasn’t suprised but blushed, he hadn’t even proposed to her and was already calling her his wife.“Yes, my wife” Malcolm answer
AURORA CHAPTER FORTY.
After driving him home, Aurora led him into the house and he slumped on the sofa immediately. His eyes were closed but he was wide awake. Malcolm was waiting for her to say she was leaving but after two minutes and he didn’t hear anything, he immediately opened his eyes and sat up. There she was, also on a sofa and she looked very tired.From where he was seated, Malcolm could see the tiredness and confusion on her face and his heart softened. Aurora was so pure and innocent and he felt like he was the one who tainted her innocence.He was the one who came into her life and brought all his problems with him, he was the one who made her once quiet life filled with noise. Nothing was actually her fault but it was all his fault though.“I can feel your eyes on me the whole time” aurora said from where she was sitting, her eyes still closed.“I thought you would be heading back to the hospital” Malcom defended, part of him wished she would not go but he already knew Aurora and how she pri
