AURORA-“There’s a parcel for you!” Azrael placed a huge box before me. I stood up from the bed and smiled at it knowing what was there inside.I am living my dream and I couldn’t be any happier than this. I am what I have forever wanted to be. I rummaged through the box and took time to read each and every letter sent for me.I was just healing from my injury so I basically had nothing to do. My secretary wouldn’t bother me, she’s too kind to call me even if the company burns to ashes.If I had to thank anyone for my success, it should be Azrael, he was my knight who literally saved me from falling down the edge numerous times.The mood swings I had to go through killed me, and if not for him, I would’ve died with my unborn daughter long ago.And then the angel was born, the light of my darkness. I was crying when I first held her in my arms. Azrael was there with me, his hand in mine, he never for once let go of me.He quit the job he was working, being afraid I’d get the labor pain
AURORA-“Nothing happened…”“You’re hiding your eyes from me!!” I contradicted and stood up from the bed. My body had gotten used to taking rest since I haven't moved myself even for a bit.The pain travelled right from my legs through my spine the moment I put weight on them, I shivered and stumbled before I could make up my mind to walk.“Careful…” Azrael grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer, his hands tightly gripped around my midriff.Our eyes locked and I even forgot why I was yelling at him. Azrael has never for once tried to touch me without my permission however, I feel this ruined electricity arcing between us.But I'm scared, that this electricity will ruin lives, we aren’t meant to be together and finding our way against the law of nature, it feels like a treason I don’t want to commit.“Don’t put weight on it!” he whispered, his eyes on me and he lifted me up from the ground like I am a feather. He placed my body on the bed carefully, making sure none of my bones ha
AURORA-I went back home removing my fake casts and bandages. It was tiresome but I managed to control the issues at the firm.My house had a different aura, all of a sudden. I don’t know but it felt weirdly awkward. “Azrael…” I called his name out leaving my coat on the couch.My steps looking for them, “Elinor?” I couldn’t hear a single thud, not even movements. I tried to focus on my werewolf hearing but before I could…“Surprise…” I found them jumping with hats and party poppers. “What is all this?” I giggled removing the chunks from my head.“Happy recovery…” What a nice thing to celebrate. “You’re the only human whose age is decreasing by day...” I shrugged my shoulder and picked Elinor in my arms.“She insisted on eating out!” I just gave her a reason…” Archie defended himself and I knew where this was going. We were having a dinner outside.And no matter how tired I was, I couldn’t say no to the bright face who was eager to go out.I fastened the seat belt around Elinor and sa
AURORA-I didn’t show any reaction on my face, though there were storms crushing my heart from inside. He has to know I don’t think about him, he should know he is not in my life anymore. And he should be aware that if he suddenly pops up in my life, it doesn’t affect me.It is all lies though…Because I feel my heart crushing, I can’t breathe anything but his scent and my eyes--- my eyes have taken over and I’ve lost control over the wolf I tried to calm for the past six years.“H---how are you?” his eyes in pain, his lips quivering as he was trying to form words. I could see he wasn’t doing fine.His voice will make me lose my sleep for three days now. “I'm doing fine… what are you doing here?” I shrugged my shoulder. my insides were wanting to touch him, hold him, devour his scent but I held myself back.I crossed my arms but beneath that I dug my nails inside my flesh to suppress my overwhelming desires. The need, the want, the will, battling against each other.“Y---you’ve healed
ZEUS-I don’t want to trust her; I shouldn’t trust her words, but what about the eyes that gave me the surety. What about those amber eyes that told me she wasn’t bluffing?Aurora loves Azrael and Azrael has forever been in love with her, it is only obvious they’ll mate while living together for six years.I couldn’t deny it, whatever she said, it was true and that’s why it was hurting. I am incomplete… why did I even go there? What was I thinking?That Aurora would accept me if I suddenly pop before her? I don’t want to say Azrael deserves her love… he is been living with her for so long, he is the reason for the smile I see on her face.I only got ten months and she made me this vulnerable for her, what will happen to Azrael? I don’t deserve Aurora, she is so pure, and I hate to admit it.But if I don’t, no one else does too. This keeps on telling me that I can’t heal, that I'm too broken to even consider the happiness walking at me.The moment I touch it, it changes the direction a
ZEUS-“Get up, we’re going somewhere…” Arthur barged in my room, he grabbed the pen from my hands forcing me to lift my ass off the chair.“Where?”“Somewhere!” he exclaimed, and I felt like I don’t have much of a choice. I just have to oblige or else he’s gonna say things I don’t want to hear and I’ll do things he doesn’t want to bear.We drove away and I saw us leaving our territories. “No… don’t tell me…” I muttered as we just crossed our boundaries. “What?”“Are we going to see Aurora?” I shuddered within before letting the words out. “Because if that’s the case, I'm not going…” I completed my sentence with a sigh at the end.Why would he do something like that? “Nope… we are not going to see her, now shut up…” Who is the Alpha here? I really want to know. “So, what? You’re now going to make Azrael and I talk, about how he should give up on Aurora?”I heard him snicker at my words, and I felt my skin crawling with rage, I hate this man. “Don’t tell me we’re going to see Elinor…” a
ZEUS-My daughter’s voice, her voice, it is so beautiful. Her eyes… the same eyes I can die for. My heart is beating like crazy and there was another girl who could make my heart pound like this other than Aurora.Elinor, my Elinor… my daughter, she is the light I need in my life. She is just like my Aurora, I turned around to hide the happiness, the sorrow, the dread in my eyes.“Let’s go Elinor… mama is waiting!” Azrael grunted while getting up. they just walked past me however I could do nothing. I heard the smallest footsteps ever; I heard her giggles.“Dad… was he crying?” She saw me, she saw her real father but doesn’t know a thing about me. She’s calling someone else as her dad.They vanished before my eyes, Elinor is everything like Aurora, I hate myself. I fucking hate myself. “We’ve bought the restaurant, where is she?” Arthur walked towards me and handed me the papers.We mutually decided not to talk about the tears pooling around my eyes. And I continued walking towards my
ZEUS-“What the hell are you doing here?” Aurora hissed under her breath as we all sat together in a circle. I was sitting in between Elinor and Aurora. Arthur was beside Elinor followed by Azrael.Arthur somehow managed to convince Aurora into playing this game called Chinese whisper. And honestly, I don’t know what that is, but Elinor seemed so excited that I couldn’t object.“Say you’ve got work to do and leave!” she muttered in such a slow voice that it became impossible for me to hear. “Work? I switched off my phone, Aurora…” I smirked enjoying the rage appearing on her pretty face. I just kept on thinking how I shouldn’t be ruining this thing because after years I got the chance to sit next to her, I won’t miss it.“Let’s start anticlockwise…” Arthur managed to speak catching all our attentions. Azrael whispered something in Arthur’s ear and it continued until I found Elinor whispering it in my ear. “You have to leave!” she whispered ending it with a giggle.I looked at Aurora a
