97. One more kiss after cookies would be better. "Errgh, I can't bear this freaking baby inside me anymore?" Eight and half months pregnant Aurora frowned with tear drops shining by the corner of her eyes. "Damien Hunter, your baby is bothering me so much now." She dragged her feet carefully, each at a time as she took the support of the wall. She had been advised to rest as much as possible given that she was close to the date of delivery. But the annoying baby in her womb won't stop bothering her at all. "Damien Hunter, where are you?" She shouted for her Alpha husband so that she could complain to him about the baby and his tormenting kicks. "I am here, love," Damien replied. "In the study." "As if I don't know. Come here and get me, idiot!" She gritted her teeth and hunched her shoulders towards the wall as she could not walk properly. Her feet were swollen to the ankles. Her eyes were puffy red from constant crying due to the pain she had been feeling these days. She's not
98. Are they separating?! In the following evening, Aurora returned back to Damien after getting up from a nap. "Damien?" She stopped at the doorstep of the study but found the room empty. His laptop was gone, so did the files she's seen laden on his desk that he was referring to. Aura called out for him again and then shut the door behind her. 'He told me he would be in the study. Where did he go all of a sudden? Ugh, I want you around me, Damien Hunter. Where the hell are you?' She pouted and trudged back to their room. Aura instead walked to the hall. She was about to settle down on the couch when she saw Madam Martha coming towards her. "Good evening, honey," "Good evening, Ma." Aura hugged her happily and the two of them adjusted beside each other. "You want me to make you something, baby? Like soup or anything." Aura who was looking around for Damien brought her face to look at her mother and declined politely. Madam Martha read through her expressions and smiled. She c
99. Is Aura and the baby in danger again? Alpha Damien's POVMiss Martha gave me a 'I know something bothers you' look and took the seat across from me."Nothing is wrong, Miss. Martha." I lied as I don't feel like sharing it with her.It is good if only limited people know what I know. And if it goes to Miss. Martha's ears then it will not be long before reaching to Aura's. She will be scared and her faded wounds may reappear from the news. It may affect her, which is the last thing I want to happen to her in this condition. I tried to not meet my eyes with the motherly figure sitting before me. But she caught my chin and made me look at her."I know there is something serious. I smelt it right when you rushed out of the mansion with a pallid face." She said, her hand falling to my shoulder. "Now tell me, Damien."I bit my mouth and forced a cool smile to pretend everything was okay. But a stern stare from her and I lost the game."Promise me you won't let it get into Aura's ears."
100. An extra marital affair… is it? Aura's POVMy entire body hurts. I feel exhausted all the time. It is difficult to pull myself on my two feet which are swollen and red till my ankles. Once I have dinner, I would not leave the bed at any cost as it is very bothersome. I can't hop out with this big belly blocking my front view."Damien, I want to pee." I tried to get on my feet and hit the washroom.He looked up from his laptop with a tired look. I pity my poor husband. There are double responsibilities burdening his shoulders ever since I entered the eighth month of my pregnancy.He has to take care of me and his business side by side. If not me then his work is bothering him. He is frustrated half of the time since he started working from home. It makes me love him more and more though. He is pissed and loses his mind to some extent but he would never let me be alone. "Why are you so quiet?" I kissed his nose as he came to pick me. He would not smile. His golden eyes lack the
101. Ex-girlfriend cries– I need your support, Damien.Alpha Damein came to a halt just outside the entryway of his mansion as he caught the gaze of a petite back of a woman. He could picture her face. Maria Nixon. She was one of the many beautiful ladies he had dated during his life. She was a smart woman, who had occupied his mind and thoughts for a long period of time.But it was five years ago. The attraction and passion for Maria was strong but only until she was there. When Aura came into his life all the women were forgotten and there was just her who clouded his mind. Now he was exclusively hers. The marriage vows he took, the promises he made across from the oracle in the shrine under the scrutiny of the moon goddess were the witnesses of his pure love and loyalty. Aura was the only one he wanted and he would ever need. Yet it was a big question mark why Maria had come here? With what intentions? "Maria?" Alpha Damien softly called her name once he stepped beyond the barri
102. Would you mind if my Ex stays with us, wifey? As the new sun of the morning crept out of the veil of clouds, Aura turned to her side and sighed. Damien didn't return to their room after Maria's arrival. He sympathized with her so much that he walked her to the guest room on the first floor and spent the whole time with her. He was not alone. Madam Martha was his companion. While he was assuring Maria of the best Madam Martha made sure she was not short of supplements or her motherly embrace. What was Aura's alone was now being divided and shared with Maria. "Maybe I am just over thinking as she is Damien's ex-girlfriend." She told herself. Aura sat up straight and pushed her hair backwards. She was not used to sharing her husband's or mother's love with anyone else. Seeing them take care of Maria was kind of annoying. Aura knew that they would never replace her. She was more than just important. There was no comparison between her and Maria. She was merely tormented by her
103. I will replace you in his life Aurora "Don't whine like a kid, Ginny Williams," Aura pulled her in a side hug and chuckled. "I was just kidding. You know I don't have many friends except you and Oscar." Ginny beamed in satisfaction and flared her hair. She was yet to notice Maria across from them. She sat back on the couch comfortably and behaved as if she never threw her disappointment at Aura. "I know that. I was just testing you and your friendship." She said whilst folding one of her nicely pampered long legs over the other. "Oh really?" "I don't repeat myself, Aurora Hunter." Said Ginny. "Anyway, what are you doing?" "I am unpacking gifts." Aura replied and the two of them happily unwrapped boxes and read out the messages they found inside the boxes. They were engrossed in the lovely toys sent for the baby and the toys when Maria quietly got up. She didn't seem interested. This was a good moment to slip out of here. She carefully separated herself from the gro
104. Her water broke!? Damien was sitting in his office before the laptop, going through some important presentations. He was fully into his work when his phone buzzed. He seethed being disturbed during work. But the phone was from one of Aurora's bodyguards. Without thinking twice, he grabbed the phone and stuck it to his ear, "Hello?" "Good day, Alpha," Damien heard the guard. There was a slight crisp in his voice. Distracted, he closed the laptop and dragged his chair backwards with his feet as he focused on what the guard had to say. "Luna wishes to see you now at this moment. She has asked me to ask you to keep all your work aside and come to the mansion right now." He said. Damien sighed throwing his head back. He imagined Aura being moody and wanting him now. "Tell her that it will take sometime. I have some important meetings lined up. Once they are done I'll head back to her before she notices that." He replied. "Apologies Alpha, but your presence is required in the m
