The air thickened and the duo froze on their seats with one looking down at her empty hands and the other staring intensely at her waiting for her to answer him. Ace had confessed how he wanted a restart with her away from all the hatred and revenge in the past but this earned a small chuckle from Aurora who finally decided to look up at him.

"10 years ago, when Max told me that you were no more and he buried you himself, I wanted to end myself as well," Aurora never thought she will ever meet Ace again and tell him the painful 10 years she lived in his absence, she gulped heaving out a shaky breath, she always wanted to share her pain with someone but her father was battling with his own problems and her every friend left her in her hard time.

"I couldn't sleep for months, after Bree's betrayal, I one night had lost my mind for a few minutes and swallowed every single sleeping pill I had left in the bottle, I vomited blood and was taken to ER," Ace's body stiffened, his

Honestly, I don't really mind if they don't end up together. There's just too much bad blood.

I cried reading this chapter. It was so well written. I knew Aurora wasn’t an angel but she wasn’t a devil either. She is truly a broken and sad girl.

    Author's Pov"Stop!" The young woman cladded in a knee sized light blue dress snapped at the tall sneaky man who without showing any guilt or panic shrugged at her."Stop following me," She again said glaring at him as he sighed digging his hands deeper in his warm coat watching her with his soft gaze which had always played with the strings of her heart, but she had vowed to never make a mistake like love again."Ms. Jade, as an independent resident of this city I have all right to walk anywhere I want to," He said making her grit her teeth as his stubbornness before she finally turned around and decided to ignore him entirely.But as expected the buff man started walking behind her again, after a few steps she let out a heavy sigh turning to face the man who blinked at her innocently like he wasn't just trying to stalk her openly, she couldn't even call it stalking anymore especially when he always followed her around right in front of her eyes, she had no idea when he even started

    Author's PovAurora sighed watching the venue in front of her, she had never visited this space that Ace owned because of security reasons and maybe because of Ace's possessiveness, she still remember how he once told her that he got to attend the party arranged by his company but he couldn't bring her there, he simply said he didn't want to take chances with Max especially after what happened in the party last time. But she knew there was something else in his eyes that time, he looked strangely at her like he was trying to make sure she knew she was caged only for his eyes there.Aurora never understood one thing, he had everyone under his control, none of the men or women tried casting any eye to her except for the only man Max, then why he still didn't want her to go in front of others? She had no idea and she never cared to know the answer, she just now wanted a peaceful life away from all the pain and toxicity she was trapped in. But again, she was standing right where he wanted

    Author's PovAurora after saying those words wiped her cheek and stood up from the stool, once she actually liked the attention bestowed on her most of the times but after years of being discarded, used and mocked she preferred hiding in the dark. She liked her own space and peace now and she definitely didn't like how everyone stared at them, of course it wasn't everyday's sight to witness the infamous Ace Sullivan to kneel before a woman but they all assumed that he was indeed extremely in love with his wife.Aurora left the venue and didn't notice when her steps took her to the backyard, she just wanted to be alone, to drink in her emotions and put an end to them like she had learned to do so from the last three months. Taking a deep breath she finally let the chilly wind caress her warm body but soon she felt someone behind her. Her eyes blinked and she steadily turned around letting her bright blue eyes meet his deep grey ones."Mio Veleno," Even after his persuasion and determin

    Author's PovAce stared at the woman for a whole minute in complete silence, his eyes blankly gazed at her making her Inwardly uncomfortable, his silence seemed more threatening than his words. She looked away from fidgeting her fingers in anxiety, but soon the room echoed with his deep chuckle followed by a short laugh, he shook his head making her look at his in astonishment, why was he laughing? What was so funny? She frowned watching him crossing his arms against his chest and let his back rest against the door blocking her way out, Ace smiled looking at her like he was amused by her words, "Divorce? You know I don't like this word, especially when it's coming from your lips." He casually mumbled clearly not taking her words seriously, Aurora sighed."It doesn't matter if you like it or not, this is our destiny Ace, accept it. We are not meant to be." Ace still refused to pay any heed to her this request and simply shook his head."You can ask my life, I will lay it down in front

    Author's PovAurora frowned a bit when she searched around her room but she couldn't find it. Her heart almost lunged to her mouth when even after her several tries to find the object she couldn't. Aurora knew that she had claimed to start a fresh alone but she just couldn't let go of that one thing she had cherished and kept close to her heart for years. She was used to sleeping while hugging it, she even had grown the habit of staring it until she would fall asleep and she couldn't wave of that habit of hers and seemed like she didn't want to.She looked around the room and sighed before taking the seat on the bed, she was surprised that Ace hadn't changed anything in her father's house. Even after he bought it, he didn't change anything except for the portrait of her father which was plastered in the living room. She didn't mind any of his replacement after all it was his house now, and he had all the rights to do as he pleased with it but she still was confused when she saw her r

    Author's Pov"Don't be scared, I can explain," Ace hurriedly muttered walking near but she instantly took three steps back, Aurora was stunned at this new level of stalking. But what left her utterly feared was the gruesome pictures of the men who tried to assault her in the club she used to work initially.Ace sighed rubbing his forehead, he knew this was bad. He didn't want her finding it out after all he was sure she would be afraid of him than she already was. He again took a step near, he needed to be close to her and make sure she would listen to his each and every word clearly. If she kept on running away, she wouldn't give any attention to whatever he might had to say.Aurora looked behind him and found the door open, finding his focus not on her she tried running passed him only for her waist to be grabbed half way, he effortlessly swept her off the floor and slammed her back against his chest holding her captive in his arms.

It had been two days and as per his words, he was going out of city for an important work and would be back next week. Aurora surprisingly didn't mind his delay and actually felt relieved. Ace gave her quiet a less time for her to resolve her emotions and sign away this relationship.At least Sameul was a little understanding in this regard. Aurora stared at the name signed on one side of the papers, it was Ace's, she took a deep breath clutching the pen tightly between her fingers as she leaned closer to sign away her name but the mere thought of giving up the man she always wanted burdened her heart even more making her close her eyes for a few seconds.The flashes of their good past roamed in front of her eyes and then they got replaced with the terrible ones.

    Author's PovAs promised by Ace, the things that he bought of hers in these years were send to her apartment right after the finalising of their divorce. The copy of the divorce certificate was handed to Aurora and she had no idea for how long she stared at it while gazing at the stuff he gave her in the divorce settlement. Ace wanted to give her a lot, massive cash amount, his three mansions and a few shares of his company he owned, but Aurora denied upright.For her, everything had build by Ace, he had taken years to structured the success he was riding today and she had no right to even try and claim anything in his property. That was the one reason but the main was, she didn't want to keep anything that could connect them, she wanted them to have a clean separation, and after a thorough negotiation and her continuous denial he requested for her to at least take her things back and with great hesitation she accepted as she knew he wouldn't let her walk away from him empty hand.Her

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

    Author's Pov"What? You should blame yourself, you kept on running away I had to follow you so you wouldn't be alone and in doing so I lost the track of the way." 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

    Author's Pov"How are you?" 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

    Author's PovAurora after removing her coat, shoes, and muffler went to the kitchen to make the coffee for both of them, she left the coffee to brew in the machine and went to wash her hands when suddenly her breath hitched feeling a massive frame towering behind her. 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
