Author's PovAurora gazed at the divorce agreement laid on the table, he did tell her that he will send Sameul to fetch the papers but that man didn't come. 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. And unfortunately the painful life she survived by his side overpowe
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
Author's PovA month, it had been a month they separated and didn't have any contact after their divorce. But this one whole month, Aurora had found many news of Ace which even after her tries to ignore she didn't like. Ace had returned to being the ruthless business man he had raised himself to be in the last ten years. The news of him crushing many elite business empires in just a few weeks left her worried for him even though she tried her best to not.She never wanted him to turn this way, she also got to know his recent anger issues flaring up, he had fired so many people from his company for many tiniest mistakes, seemed like whatever the compassion he had raised in him after coming back was crushed badly. Aurora tried to avoid any news coming from him but the channels, people and even her colleagues were talking about him.She also had heard the suspicion of him putting one of the empire's boss he had crushed being murdered by him but there was no evidence against him. That own
Author's Pov"What are you doing here?" Jade questioned the tall man leaning against the wall watching her with a small smirk, he squinted his gaze at her before mumbling slowly."Isn't it obvious? I am here to find the run away cat." Jade bit her lower lip before looking away from him, she clutched the wet tissue in her hand which she used to wipe her hands. Jade accompanied her current boss to one of the restaurant for his important meeting and after the dinner she went to use the washroom, the moment she walked out she was blocked by a familiar man and seemed like he had been waiting for her to come out so he could pounce on her. She knew the reason well, but she didn't have the heart to accept the fact yet. "I don't understand what are you saying?" She mumbled not having the strength to look in his way, this man had all the ways to bring her to her knees and she didn't want to risk anything anymore but sameul wouldn't let her off this easily.He walked near her and didn't show a
Author's PovAce standing in the corner of the room watched the only woman of his heart playing the piano, she had no idea he was here and he had no plans to make his appearance in front of her, he meant when he said he wouldn't disturb her anymore, but watching her from a far wad at least his right. She played a few beautiful melodies before she finally stepped out of the venue.Ace knew he shouldn't but his heart couldn't let her off his sight and sighing in resignation he followed her out, his steady and careful steps watched hers with keen interest, hugging the coat near her body she suddenly paused in front of a small stall, the old man was selling cheese sandwiches and as she didn't have the dinner she decided to eat after all she was too tired to go home and cook something for herself.Ace leaned against the alley wall watching her taking a seat on the bench watching the silent street, it was quiet late and it wasn't a surprise that there were a few people around, suddenly his
Author's PovAce gently laid the soft blanket over the shivering woman, she was curled up on the corner of the couch right after he placed her there. Ace originally had planned to return her to her apartment but after seeing her condition and that confusing question he decided to bring her to his mansion which was quiet near to the beach. Ace took a seat on the edge of the bed in front of her staring unblinkingly, something was terribly wrong and he didn't have any good thoughts of what might had happened to her to make her want to hold the hand of the man she wanted to leave so badly. Aurora hugged the blanket closer. After reaching the mansion, he right away gave his clothes to her, he didn't have any pants her size but thankfully he had oversized hoodie which almost reached her knees."You changed house?" Her heavy voice echoed in the silent room as she inspected the place with her bloodshot gaze, he hummed in response making her look in his eyes."Why?" Ace for a second reverted
Author's Pov"Just tell her already, why are you making decisions on her behalf?" 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
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
Author's PovAurora jumped in her place getting startled when her body was wrapped up by large arms cradling her in his warm embrace, after a few seconds her tensed muscles relaxed against him as he tightened his grip over her tiny frame. 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!" Aurora's smile made
Author's PovThe sunrays radiating from the messy hut made the woman nestled in bare men's arms twisted a bit before opening her eyes, she felt a shiver wearing down her spine as her bare legs were attacked by the cold wind of the sunny day after a thorough thunderous rainy night. 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 even aft
Author's PovMature Content AheadAce felt a slight shiver in his body when the tips of her fingers gently caressed the lineage of his scars, he noticed her eyes turning teary as she glided her finger over the nasty scars while tightening her grip on his shoulder by her other hand, she did see his scars before but never clear before until that night. 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
