Author's Pov

The sickening silence engulfed the hallway as the only sound of her heavy breathing was heard, Ace's face was slightly turned to the side at the terrible impact of her slap being left on his cheek. The slap did nothing to him, it felt like a tap to him, he had endured way more powerful and harsh smacks in his whole life, her little slap wasn't even had the chance to think of comparing with the brutal ones he had received in the past.

Aurora knew she should have controlled her emotions, she shouldn't had let her mind control her like this, this slap was going to bring so much pain to her which she couldn't even think of, her body shudder at the thought but her mind refused to corporate with her heart, his fear was shunned away from her mind after she met her father. She had no idea from where she got the courage to raise her hand on this devil.

"W-Why? Why did you lie to dad that I am your mistress?" She naively questioned and somewhere she knew the answer but her heart wa

Jade's change cannot be compared to Aurora's life though. Max is far worse than Ace and constantly cheating on his wife and now bringing his mistress home. If Ace did the same thing, Aurora would resort to something as drastic as well

exactly. People are too quick to hate on Aurora. Though she is a flawed person, she doesn't deserve that much hate just for being blind to her father's misconducts, which is what I have seen many good people being blind about even in reality. she literally has no one except him in the world.

    Author's PovShe held her breathing back when the steely eyed man stared blankly yet with unsaid plan which would be nothing but maybe harmful for her, pleasurable for him. She gulped feeling his finger trailing to her chin as he gently tugged it upwards letting him have a good sight of her misty ocean eyes, her bright eyes were surrounded by redness because of her breakdown a while ago, then she realised.This man didn't do anything to her after she slapped him, the fear gripped her and all her bravery started fading, but more than scared she was confused. He didn't care about the slap but he still hadn't let the matter of her harming herself go even after so many days. A light redness was still evident on his tanned flesh which her hand granted him, she internally cursed herself for losing her mind that way."I-I slapped you?" More than a statement it felt like she was questioning, Ace's lips tilted up slightly in amusement, people would always try to make him forget their mistakes

Jade questioned the young man seated in front of her, she was cladded in a bath robe while the man was only covered with shorts.He raised his sharp black eyes to her before letting out a snicker, "That's my business, tell me if you're willing to help me or not?" Jade bit her lower lip watching the young man with intented gaze.She had no idea why he wanted to approach Aurora but she knew once he met her he might not want to be with Jade again, how would she even confess to him that how deeply she was in love with this man. She knew they had met just a few months ago but his care and attention towards her that filled the void present in her heart, she badly wanted to be with him but she also was scared.She knew Max hated clingy women, he hated being coaxed and followed by anyone he strictly had a physical relation only.

    Author's PovAurora sighed heavily before staring at the food in front of her, after her return from the hospital Ace had instructed the butler to give her double of what she used to eat. She could feel her body had gained a little weight compared to before as she had been eating way too much than her usual routine.After her father lose everything, Aurora took the initiative to learn how to cook as she knew her father couldn't afford the cook or the servants anymore, she still had several burn marks on her hand and fingers of that time, even though they had turned lighter in the shade but hadn't faded away. She never was attentive to them or try to get rid of the scars until one morning she found her husband wearing a deep frown carefully applying something on her fingers and back of the hand.That day she saw the glimpse of Ace she knew once, the same look of disdain when she used to get hurt, the same frown whenever he tried treating her injury even though he wasn't aware of her wa

It had been days, or maybe weeks when he got to know that what he had for years wasn't one sided, she did love him, or maybe loves him, how could she love in this situation they were trapped now? Why after everything he still couldn't see hatred in her eyes for him? He hated her didn't he?

    "Can you stop looking at me like that?" The flustered woman said as she felt several sparks of nervousness hitting her because of the suspicious narrowed eyes gazing at her like she was some kind of bomb and will burst anytime. Ace tilted his head slightly before spinning the pen cradled in his fingers, this woman right in front of her was actually presenting a peace treaty. He knew whatever had happened to her in these years might had finally opened her eyes but again, her loyalty with that bastard was too strong for the last 15 years to actually believe her words."Jade Maxton Corvin, you really think I will trust you?" Jade let out a tired sigh, her soft eyes yet the helplessness and pain behind them didn't go unnoticed by the hawk eyes of the man seated in front of her."I understand why you don't want to trust me, and you have every reason to not," She paused before pulling a knife out of her bag which alerted Sameul who was standing right behind her, he was about to snatch it a

She moved her swollen gaze around the room only to find herself laid on the dirty old bed, she coughed once again touching her throat, that gas was venomous. The side affects were still present in the form of terrible ache in her throat and eyes.Pushing her weak body in a seating position, she let herself examine the whole place until the memories started flashing before her mind, tears instantly welled in her eyes remembering the name her father took before she lost her consciousness. She shook her head taking deep breaths, she still wanted to delude her mind with a false hope that her father wouldn't do that, he just wouldn't.Max had attacked her twice in those two years and one it was right in front of Alvin, he had almost choked her to death if it wasn't for the loan sharks who started

    Author's Pov"Marriage?" She whispered making the man sigh in frustration, he was confused and annoyed by her lack of corporation, she always did whatever he asked her to right away, it was the first time she actually resisted his order."Aurora, I am doing it for your own good, understand it, that bastard is torturing you just to take revenge on me, divorce him, and when you will become someone else's wife, he wouldn't be able to do anything!" She drank her tears back before watching her father with a rebellious gaze as she took a step back."You say he's taking revenge on you by using me, and you're going to take revenge on him for the torture by using me, so what's the difference?" Alvin's eyes flickered in alert as he didn't expect her to actually see through his facade, did she really for the first time realised what his real intentions were behind those sweet words?"Aurora, my princess. I am not using you, I am doing it for your betterment." He used his usual soft and gentle ton

Alvin instantly tried to help her but Max was fast enough to yank her up by holding her arm, he pulled her closer making her snap her eyes to his blank ones. Her eyes for a moment fell on the annoyed guy who was supposedly chosen by her father to replace Ace, she glared at him making him narrow his eyes at her audacity, if he thought she was going to behave like an obedient slave then he was wrong, only Ace had the power to bent her to submission, Max had tried many ways to push her on her knees in front of him but when she never was obedient to the man who wouldn't mind taking her life in a snap then who this man was?"Papers," Max ordered making the evil eyed man held the crushed papers in front of him, Aurora bit her inner cheek in disappointment, she sho

Aurora smiled raising her eyes to the mirror in front of them reflecting their hugging bodies but Ace didn't meet her eyes, he simply buried his face in her crook closing his eyes."What happened?" He shook his head nuzzling deeper in her crook but Aurora noticed his unusual stance, she frowned palming his wrapped arms watching him carefully through the mirror."Tell me," She pressed caressing his bare tattooed arms with her gentle fingers making the man pull his head up and meet her concerned gaze."Jade is pregnant, Sameul just told me." He whispered making Aurora smile widely as she giggled slightly in happiness."Oh my God! That's so great! Finally after 4 years of wait, they are going to have a child. Jade must be so happy!"

Her tired eyes steadily raised up meeting with the smiley grey ones.She blinked a few times and reality fell on her, she was cuddled in his oversized shirt which he was wearing last night, she had nothing on her body except for his shirt, Ace also was wearing just his shorts and nothing else but the unusual warmth radiating from his body kept both of them warm and away from the cold atmosphere. She surprisingly didn't shy away but instead nuzzled her face in his bare chest closing her eyes making the man tighten his hug, Ace enjoyed the peaceful moment while hugging her closely, it was hard for him to find himself fall asleep last night especially at how he made love to her almost at midnight.

And never this close, they were right before her eyes looking so painful yet the strength he withhold left her wanting to erase the pain he once went through.Ace leaned down and let his warm lips fell on her eyes kissing her tears away, his kisses were so soft and gentle that it made her close her eyes letting a few tears drip down to her temple, she let out a shaky breath feeling his lips kissing her cheeks before planting pecks all over her jawline leaving no space alone on her face until he reached her neck.The man didn't unleash his hunger right away instead he took his sweet time snuggling in her crook holding her closer, Aurora wr

Ace defended himself while raising his hands, Aurora was left speechless, somehow she knew he was right, if he had left her alone she would have definitely stuck here alone.She looked down apologetically before biting her lower lip, "You're right." She admitted solemnly making the man in front of her a bit surprised at her acceptance and then he cleared his throat nearing her."Don't worry OK, we can find a way out." He carefully touched her cheek making her look up in his bright grey eyes before nodding her head."Yes, even I remember a little where I came from." Aurora was so angry and drowned in jealousy that time that she didn't care to look at the signs while crossing the way but she still remember a little."I also remember a bit, we came from that side." Ace pointed at the left side but Aurora was a bit skeptical, she

Aurora questioned the timid woman seated in front of her, she gulped making her glance at her for a second before her gaze again dropped down."I am good, how about you?" Jade mumbled looking a little hesitant and trying to sound casual but Aurora knew it wasn't easy to revive the good bond they shared ten years ago which was basically based on lies and betrayal."Better, a lot better than before." Jade smiled softly nodding her head, her fingers trembled around the warm cup of coffee, she had no idea how to start the conversation especially when it was her who called her here.Jade asked Sameul for Aurora's number and after calling her, she invited her for a cup of coffee, somewhere Aurora also knew what she wanted to talk about but she still didn't want to push her. She already had heard about the trauma she went through from Max's hands years ago, she always despised Jade in the past for her lies but after realising that she wasn't any better than her. J

She gulped when he leaned his face closer to her cheek almost cornering her lifting his hand forward."W-What are you," Her words were cut off when he moved his hand and turn the running tap off, she gulped as he whispered mischievously in her ears."You shouldn't waste water." She bit her lower and tried escaping his arms but the moment she tried to side walk him, he palmed the aisle trapping her completely leaving no chance for her to leave him.She gasped out clutching the counter when he buried his face in her crook taking her aback, "You wanted me to kissyou then, but I wanted more, and now i will fulfill both of our wishes." With that he placed a soft peck over her neckline making her throw her head back.The sensa

    Author's PovAurora walked out of the cafe only to find a familiar frame leaning against his car looking like a model as usual, her colleagues, her boss and even a few customers asked her who this fine man was? Aurora hesitated but remembering her promise and determination to start afresh with him, she accepted that he was her boyfriend. Her boss knew about him and even asked her why she was still doing the job when her boyfriend was this wealthy? She didn't want to reply, but did eventually, she never agreed to date him for his money. No one knew their painful history and she had no mind of revealing it to anyone. Hugging the coat near her body she walked towards the stubborn man, she told him many times to not pick her up like this but he never listened, he always uses the excuse of her being his girlfriend to do as he wished."Shall we?" He muttered opening the passenger door for her but she suddenly smirked at him playfully shaking her head."Do you know I am used to walk back to

    Author's PovThe silence fell in the hallway after he completed his words, Aurora was still crouched down in front of him while Ace averted his gaze away from her fearing her reaction. Ace knew he didn't have any right to make the decision on her behalf but he knew how much kids meant to Aurora, she used to talk a lot about having children who would look like her, and he didn't want to snatch this right from her just to make her come back to him."Are you stupid?" Her sudden remark made him snap his head towards her, he met her confused gaze and slightly angered expressions."Why would you think that I wouldn't want to be with you just because the probability of you having children is low?" He blinked a few times releasing the caged tears as she sighed heavily before raising her hand to wipe his cheeks."What did doctor say?" He gulped before mumbling softly."He said that the chances of I having children is almost none, maybe a miracle but from his experience it's better if I don't h

Sameul snapped at the nonchalant man seated on the couch with his head bowed down looking disheveled, his hair messy, clothes unironed from and eyes bloodshot like he hadn't sleep for years. He steadily raised his empty gaze to the glaring man, "I am doing it for her, its for the best, she doesn't deserve to suffer with me, she already had enough." Sam huffed rubbing his temple in annoyance."I never liked her in the past after what you went through and she was one of the reasons but after keeping eyes on her for such a long time I know one thing, she loves you, so much that I don't think she can ever move on, you're just hurting her and yourself. Being truthful is what you should do and let her decide what she wants." Ace stubbornly shook his head flapping his hand as he motioned the frustrated man to get out.Before Sameul could say anything further, someone entered the house with her meek steps, she
