They locked eyes with one another.Then Aurora put one hand on Westin’s shoulder and leaned in.She stole a quick peck on Westin’s lips and then backed away again.“There,” she grinned.Astonishment flickered across Westin’s eyes.He grabbed her wrist and chuckled, “You are cheating.”“Yes.” she bli
This was the first time that he ever told her about his background.Aurora was intrigued, “You have siblings?”“Yeah. One brother and one sister.”She wanted him to say more about himself. But he stopped right there.“Looks like one part was worn out.” he said. “I might need to change the part to fi
Aurora knew that she had nothing to hide.She was not Damien’s Luna anymore, nor his mate.Yet when he barged in here and saw her with Westin, her first instinct was still to cover Westin up.Because the look on Damien’s face was just…terrifying!His handsome face twisted in anger. His eyes burned w
“It is me. Damien.”Footsteps came to the door and then the door was opened a crack.Wendy peeked cautiously from the crack.“M—Master!” she gasped, looking afraid. “I was just coming up to tell the Queen about…about what happened downstairs.”Looked like that she saw Damien fighting Westin and got
Chloe tormented Aurora brutally that night.She called in two soldiers and had them hold Aurora tight as she lashed Aurora with a whip.Soon there was no good skin left on Aurora’s body for Chloe to land her whip on. The blood streamed down and painted the white carpet red.The pain was unbearable.
Aurora turned to look at her, “Why?”“Well, I figure that it will be less fun if I just lock you to my bedside and lash you like a dog. That is not very creative. With this sweet thing on your neck, you can move around, and I can trust you to behave. Everybody wins.”Chloe leaned back on the couch a
A sharp, prickling pain shot through Aurora’s body.This hurt even more than the lashings!Fingers were highly sensitive areas with all the nerve endings, and even more so for the nail part.Even a tiny paper cut could hurt for days, let alone shoving a bamboo splinter right under the nail!Cold swe
And her hands were soon rough and chapped in the soap water.Wendy would pace over from time to time and point out some invisible stains and dust.She would deliberately step on the part that Aurora had just cleaned a moment before, leaving some dusty footprints behind, so that Aurora had to redo th
He smirked in a cocky yet very youthful kind of way, “I figured…If you like my wolf, maybe you will like me better?”Aurora bit her lips.She didn’t know how to tell Westin that his wolf appeared more intimidating than likable to her.“Your wolf looked very different than ours,” she said eventually.
The formidable creature stood in the dark shadows, towering at an imposing height.Its eyes, burning with a golden fire, traveled across the aghast soldiers, and landed on Aurora’s face.A creeping chill was sent down Aurora’s spine as their eyes met.She swallowed, nervously.…Now she finally saw h
Aurora was confused as well.What Damien had in his palm made no sense to her.It was a cup of dirt.“How is some dirt going to find us locate the bandits?” Westin crossed his arms with a smirk on his face. “I have got to say—this is not a very smart way to get Aurora’s attention.”“Hey.”Aurora elb
“I need to go.” Aurora threw the napkin back on the table and stood up, “Now if you will excuse me.”She wanted to make her way past these two men.But Damien grabbed her wrist.“What is the rush? You haven’t had dinner yet. Something happened?” he asked with a frown.“No. Everything is fine—”“Oh c
Aurora took a deep breath, “I haven’t decided yet.”“You need two whole weeks to decide?” Damien frowned.“I think your best option is right here in front of your eyes,” Westin spread his hands.Whispers broke out like little hissing fires all over the hall.Everyone was intrigued by this love trian
It was a floor-length, emerald-green evening gown.It had a fitted bodice with intricate silver beadwork that extended down the waist, creating an elegant and eye-catching pattern. The skirt flowed gracefully, creating a slight train.“I like this one,” Aurora pointed at the dress.“Great choice, pr
Announce whom she would marry?But she hadn’t decided yet!“Hold on a second.” Aurora frowned, “What if I can’t decide within these two weeks?”“Then you make up your mind quickly.”Lance crossed his arms and said:“You saw how they were like out there. They can’t stay in the same room peacefully fo
Damien gently pushed a lock of her hair to the back of her ear, “…I should have done the same for you.”Aurora struggled to look away from those enchanting eyes of his, “Yes you should have. But now it is too late.”“It is never too late!”Damien’s tone suddenly became rushed, “Aurora, I want to ask
An awkward silence fell upon them.Rivena bit her lips, looking reluctant to answer, but eventually gave in under everyone’s sharp gaze.“Well…yeah. I am…actually,” she sighed.“You are pregnant, and you still decided to leave me?!” Lance raised his voice abruptly and roared, “Are fucking crazy?!”R
