ARTHUR-“Nothing big, you say?” I snorted looking at Azrael. I was more than happy that whatever they had was not love.I giggled beneath my breath and Azrael eyed me since none of them were laughing. “Okay fine…” Azrael hid the ‘and his---’ part. Perhaps he still was unsure of didn’t want to tell them about it yet.“I'm glad it wasn’t love, so anything else worth knowing?” I completely discarded the huge file and their eyes went wide. I got my answers, there’s nothing else I want.“Did you know she approach you as well… for the same thing…” Azrael uttered and the tie I was fixing came to choke me.I gagged panting heavily, “What?” I couldn’t believe it. At least change your fucking motive.“That’s not why I approached him, I wanted him to kill Dustin for me since he’s my mate bond…” Halsey blurted out.“That’s right… it was the only part missing. I was just lying to pull answers out of you!!” Azrael started scribbling on the paper and stood up.“Well then, see you!!” he bowed before
ARTHUR-[It’s not like yours will be the same like my girl is, she might be intelligent and caring and loyal and everything that Aurora isn’t.]Zeus’ words stormed before me, the night in the club. When he suddenly popped up the topic of my Luna, a girl I never met and the night I met Halsey for the first time.Who knew I’d standing before a girl’s house, trying to win her love. I entered inside fixing my throat and saw Adam opening his arms for me.“Arthur…” his smile twice as wide as the living room, his pulled me into an embrace, okay. I want to give up already, I didn’t come here for him, the fuck…“You’re here for Halsey, I believe.” Hell yeah, of course. A thousand times a yes. Why would I be here for you? I nodded and he sat me down on his couch.“So, what are we gonna do?” I heard a voice and turned my heard around to see her strolling down from the stairs.Beautiful as always, a white off-shoulder top and blue body-hugging jeans could make my heart pound was something I wasn’
ARTHUR-Now her gaze pierced my soul, she gulped nothing but shock down her throat. The movie ended and she hurriedly ran away not wasting another second on me.I followed her but as soon as I could but the moment I opened the exit door, all I could see was crowd and the girl lost somewhere in between.I was too stunned to see how quick she ran, but what made me disappointed was the entirety of my existence. I was too numb to move that I myself saw her leaving the room and do nothing.I ran into the crowd as well, finding the strong silhouette, a glare that kills people, a smile that buries their soul deep inside.“Halsey” I yelled looking for her and felt everyone’s eyes looking at me. Why them and not her? I searched the whole building, turning it upside down.I hate to say it but I need Azrael right now. “Looking for something?” my keys jingle and the familiar voice made my body flinch. I checked my pockets only to see the car keys gone.“Halsey!!” I looked at her, her smile, rathe
ARTHUR-I couldn’t leave the mansion; I didn’t want to. Because the sight before me was dreadful that I wanted to give up and escape and hide and die already.A dagger inside Aurora’s chest, was it because I told her about the truth? It happened because of me, right? I don’t know, Aurora never really mattered to me, but this… blood pooled around her, the wedding gown she made with love turning red with her own blood.How can I overlook this and think I can have a possible happy love. I’m not looking for happiness, however I just seek a little bit of peace. But this is nowhere near peace.Death, tears and sorrow, is this love? Look at him, the formidable beast, who only had the rule of ‘kill, win and rule’, what have he turned into?A withered flower, a shattered mirror, a lost kid, a dead body, all because the girl he loves is fighting death inside. All because they couldn’t stand each other’s pain, or their own desires to fight for something that was long lost.But do I have the righ
ARTHUR-“Who?” her voice was low as if she was scared, I wish I could tell her that there’s no other woman in my life. There can’t be, if there’s an Arthur, then he belongs to Halsey, all of it.“Aurora…” my hands automatically gripped her waist tightly, fearing she might die. It’s been days and she hasn’t woken up yet. If something happens to her, I might lose Zeus as well.She stood there in silence, saying nothing. Please say something, help me, treat me, or kill me, because I can’t take this anymore. “She’s gonna be fine, Arthur…”She said my name, for the first time. I couldn’t even cherish it, because the happening around me weren’t pretty unlike how my name sounded from her lips.Say no more, just stand still. Give me the strength to handle this pain or take it all away, leave no essence of me. “Arthur…” she turned, her hands around my face.I know she understands nothing, she might not know who Aurora is, and why am I feeling this ugly because of another girl, but the way she’
AURORA-“Fuck… I can’t believe you’re mine…” he clenched his jaw, his breath falling on my cheeks. My heart throbbing, I want to scream with happiness.Although it didn’t go like I planned but I want to die because it was better than anticipated and the hunger in Zeus’ eyes for me. he wants me, more than anything.To such an extent where he couldn’t even greet Halsey and Arthur, he held my hand taking me inside. I was hungry, for food, but it can wait because my pussy is thriving for him.His hands touching me everywhere, places I didn’t know existed inside me. His lips following the traced and imprints of his fingers on my body.How can he be gentle and rough at the same time when both the words have two different meaning, when they’re opposite to each other just like him and I.But then again, we exist, in the same place, in each other’s arms, reside in each other’s eyes. I fucking love it, I could die. I could die for him; I could kill for him.My body is shuddering and he pinned m
AURORA-I slept like a log, however when I opened my eyes. “Good morning…” I saw his eyes piercing my soul. He smirked, his arms around my waist and he hugged me tightly.“Morning…” I yawned back, broadening my mouth as wide as possible, he snickered looking at my face. I hid myself under the sheets.“I’m going to take a shower…” I drawled getting up from the bed only to get pulled back by him. “Hmm… you sure are.”My back touched his chest and I could hear his heartbeat, what a beautiful sound to listen to early in the morning. I closed my eyes devouring this feeling, the feeling of being loved, like you’re important you matter.“We have to go somewhere…” he whispered in a low voice. “Where?” I questioned, my heart still palpitating under my breath, no matter for how long we stay together, I can never get used to this feeling.He sighed and I knew he wouldn’t want to tell me, I shut my eyes down and wrapped my arms around his’. This feeling, this is killing me, eating me up on the in
AURORA- I’ve never heard this name before; Zeus body shuddered, his eyes went wide, his breath shortened and I saw sweat appearing on his face. “Z---Zeus… are you okay?” I rubbed his back not knowing what happened to him all of a sudden. I looked at Arthur who had no expression on his face, his fucking poker face gave me creeps. On the other hand, Zeus couldn’t breathe, I didn’t know what to do, what was happening? “Zeus…” he pushed me away, his body thumped down on the floor. He kept on looking at Arthur with weird face, “Who is Elisa?” I asked, panic running through my blood. Who is Elisa? Arthur didn’t speak, his gaze meeting the ground and I turned to see Zeus, our eyes finally met and he drowned in them. “That’s my… m---mother’s name…” I felt cold, my insides shivered, we just visited her grave, what is going on? The hair at the back of my neck rose up and no wonder Zeus was so destroyed by hearing this. “She’s dead…” Zeus roared standing up, his legs stomping against the
AURORA-My body is aching, Zeus was merciless yesterday, and I believe I’ve slept for fourteen hours straight. No one bothered to wake me up, and I opened my eyes to find out that a new day has begun.I got up leaving outside, Zeus and I are finally together, and I loved every moment of it. I'm glad he didn’t hate me, I'm glad everything went well, despite the problems we had to go through.“No, no, no.” I heard the familiar voice and whatever sleep I had in my eyes vanished.“Elinor?” I shouted running toward the ground. The voice turned into laughter and I saw Elinor giggling with Zeus, both of them lying on the ground, as Zeus was tickling her.“Don’t ruin it.” my legs stopped on the voice and I turned to see Azrael standing before me.“H---how are you---”“How am I here?” Azrael muttered and walked in my direction. “it was time for me go out of the picture.”“What’s that supposed to mean?” I shivered just by his words.“Elinor found your wedding photos, Aurora. I couldn’t do much.
ZEUS-I love her, and my undying love for her knows no bound. But, I'm insecure, I'm insecure she’ll again choose whatever over me, and can I be blamed for that? Can she be blamed for that?My meanness and her kindness always clash, always. And I don’t believe in opposites attract but fuck. I am angry, jealous and dying every moment she looks at other man, even if it is Arthur, they are bonding way too much now, they need a fucking break.And I am angry because I can’t stay angry at her, so maybe I'm acting to be rude while I don’t give a fuck about my own pride, this girl ate me alive. And as much as I want to drag her to my room, I can’t.“Are you going to fill me up with your silence?” She is so nervous that the dark part of me is enjoying it very much, more than I should. “I wonder if Alfred should serve us today?” I posed a question again but she didn’t dare look at me. so apparently, me mentioning Alfred’s name was not much of a trigger.She wasn’t saying anything and it was now
AURORA-Three more days and nothing, we have nothing on our hand. Zeus is still unconscious, still very much the same, though he’s breathing and maybe healing, we see positive signs but I need more, more than that.We avoided war, not we, Alfred did it. He stopped him pack, the soul sorcerers, the Alpha or Kian for that matter didn’t come after me because Alfred chose to let me go. And they had to listen to him, everyone knew Alfred will single handedly kill the whole pack, or maybe cause severe damage if not that.Arthur is still dying with the pain, the loss of Halsey but nothing can’t be done. She and Dabria plotted against us, Dabria informed the soul sorcerers about my existence and that I have a daughter, she thought I have broken all ties with Zeus, which was right. And that I would have no backup.I am a mother now, and I want to say I get how she felt but I am a selfish mother. And she tried to take my daughter away from me, and nothing, nothing could make me angrier than thi
AURORA-“I knew you’d come back to me.” He smiled and I looked around to see if Arthur is here or not, I am being delusional, of course, he is not here. Alfred took care of him, them.“I didn’t come to you.” I say, without looking him in the eyes. Because I am embarrassed of my own self, of my own stupidity of breaking hearts though it is always intentional.And truth be told, this shouldn’t worry me even a bit, but it does, and it shatters me in ways I don’t expect. Alfred as a being is kind inside that coating of pretending to be callous, he is not cruel, or maybe not to me. Alfred deserves to be loved by someone who truly cares for him. I'm not that someone, I love Zeus and look at the damage I've brought to him, so what will happen to Alfred, who I don’t even love?“You’re not?” He tried to smile, I noticed the dark circles under his eyes, the sleepless eyes that wanted to shut off but he wasn’t allowing them to. The tiredness on his face and the glow of those amber eyes was lost
AURORA-I woke up, my eyes burning from the poison, probably the side effects of wolfsbane, but I was breathing and was back in our mansion.I was back home, safe and breathing, in my own room. The first thing I do is look for Zeus, I want to see him. his wound was closer to his already healing heart, plus that poison was made for primordial not a normal werewolf.My breathing went erratic, and I paused before entering his room. There was no sign of Elinor here, she was not back, and was safe with Azrael, this gave me some peace of mind and I gulped.I don’t want to have bad thoughts and barged in, my heart heaved a heavy sigh and it got stuck in my throat, I couldn’t move and only saw him lying lifeless on the bed.“Zeus---” I etched, my voice not coming out firm and my lips wobbled as I took a step not having energy to move further. I tried to smile, “Zeus, I know you’re angry with me.”I didn’t want to believe the sight before me, I was in denial and wanted to stay that way forever
ZEUS-Death? What is it? Death is the look Aurora had on her face when I let go of myself, when I said things, I wanted to regret but didn’t.When I said I hated her because for a moment I actually wanted it to be true, but I can’t, I can’t hate her. She will be the death of me yet I won’t be able to hate her, she gave this life a life so, why would I hate her if she takes it back?But only after Arthur’s taunting I realized that I was complete jerk for the girl who was again sacrificing again her happiness because of me, so that I can breathe, and I hated my life, myself to be this helpless.All the arrogance I had in me, about being the strongest, rigid and stout, it all crumpled into a piece of paper later on dumped into a bin.Aurora is forever gonna choose everything over me, saying it her duty to keep me safe, what am I doing? This girl lost her world, the beautiful life she had before she met me, I ruined it. I became the death of her happiness and yet she’s doing her best to k
AURORA-“Somewhere safe… for now?” Kian teased and my nerves tensed up with fear. The dread of happening something to Elinor made all the possibilities to think numb in my brain and I paralyzed.I looked at Alfred who promised to keep Elinor out of it had nothing to say, but for some reason, he was just as shocked as I was however, I wasn’t foolish enough to believe him, or his fake reaction.“I always love having an upper hand, especially when Alfred is dumb enough to gladly listen to all the ranting you do. we wanted power and fear in our enemy’s eyes gives us that.” Kian almost snorted.“You are of no use, we need soldiers and not those who defy us. You became a rebel the day you stood up before me, we don’t want that shit. Henceforth, I’ll train Elinor or I’ll kill her there’s no third option.“W---what happened to Azrael?” I gasped for air, I failed, like every time I failed and nothing, nothing went my way, I failed.“He’s alive… barely. So, either you back off or see her die. W
AURORA-“Hurry, we need to leave.” He muttered panicking.“M---Mirage and Ian, they’re inside.” I say still looking down on the ground, processing the reality.“Don’t worry about them, they escaped too---”“Where will we go? They will come after us, he will come after me, he will kill you. no---, Zeus you have to go back.” I shiver merely from the thought of seeing Zeus de---.“Aurora stop being like this and just come home.” “He’ll make sure, I don’t have a home. This is bad.” “Aurora, I'm trying to fight here for you, I don’t want my daughter to live without a mother, when she clearly has one. Do you get it? I'm not as strong as them, but I have the power of love, now stop looking down on me and just hold my hand, dammit. My pride has a limit too.” I looked up as he extended his hand, worry cascading his face, his eyes glowing, mine as well, I missed him and he’s before me.I got up and hugged and firmly, my whole body trembled under his touch and my dead soul awakened. I missed h
AURORA-It’s here, my death, my end, standing and the door and I just invited it in. I'm here sitting in this wedding gown which feels more like a death bed.I'm getting married to Alfred Hestia, in order to survive, in order to see those who I love breathe, I love Zeus, and I miss him, I just want to see him one last time and could even trade my life for his one look.I feel my bones shattering just as my will and Zeus is my only redemption. “Come here…” Alfred pulled me closer, his eyes fixated at mine and whenever I look away, he forces my gaze back to him.His eyes are making me feel naked, the way he looks at me, and the way he licks his lips like he wants to devour me, his smile tells me how victorious he feels right now, and his laugh is like he gives no shit about this world.I didn’t take up on the fifth tier, it was a good thing I didn’t see Mirage here. He probably listened to me, and I'm glad he did so. All I see is one vow and the Aurora who smiled, the Aurora who lived w
