Aurora placed her coffee down. "I spilled coffee on one man." Her eyes widened. "What?.. shit!... Was he pissed off?" "No, in fact he got another coffee for me and was polite..." She looked at her confused. "Do we really have that kind of person left behind in this world?" Catherine was amused while placing books on the shelves. "Did you ask his name? Was he handsome?" Aurora sipped her coffee. "Yeah... He was!" Catherine looked at her with raised eyebrows. "More than Rafael?" Aurora choked on her coffee. "No!.." She shook her head. "Rafael looks different... But he is more dangerous than he looks beautiful" Catherine shook her head amused. "What was the name?" "I forgot..." Aurora sighed. "It was something King." She tried to recollect and Catherine frowned at her. "Yeah, Theodore
Midst of Darkness! 38. Taken!
Author's POV Rafael looked at the innocent face which was unconscious in front of him. He swirled the glass of drink in hand as he remembered the gunpoint on her forehead. He never thought that he would ever experience what fear is. The first time he felt his heart skipping a beat when he saw her in real danger. He gulped down the drink when he couldn't understand what would have happened if the trigger was pulled. He couldn't imagine, there was a storm of feelings in him and the strongest feeling was to keep her away from everyone's eyes where no one can touch her even with their eyes. He felt his blood boiling, and he was going to make everyone pay for it. He didn't realise that he was angry because Rosetta touched her and not because she made him drop the gun. Old Rafael would have thought of the former. He called someone. "Her sister is lying in the house, make sure that she pays for whatever she tried to do tonight..." He ordered and disconnected the call. Rafael looked

Mariana came forward and gently wrapped a hand around Aurora's shoulder. "Come!" Rafael's eyes scrunched at her hand which was wrapped around her shoulder. "Don't.Touch.Her" He looked at her with a mad look. He doesn't trust anyone around Aurora, knowing that people can do anything to get back to him or maybe that was just the reason. He doesn't like it even when women touch her. Mariana removed hand from her shoulders and smirked. "I am straight, I am not interested in any woman but if it gives you relief then fine!" She looked at Aurora. "Come!" Aurora started following Mariana as she walked ahead. Rafael looked at the cat who was running and rubbing herself on his legs. "Shadow, go with her" He ordered and the cat followed them. Rafael was impressed that the cat is at least trained to follow orders otherwise he would have

She had lost all her hopes when he finally declared his intentions. She has no idea how to get out of this. Rafael pecked her lips and turned around while fixing his wet hair. "What did you do to Aria?" She asked while wrapping a towel around her and looking at her wet clothes laying in the basket. He smirked and looked at her through the mirror. "You care about the people you shouldn't and__" He shook his head by not completing his sentence. She looked at him confused at him. She knows that he must have done something to her. "Did you kill her?" She mumbled. He turned around when he was done, gently grabbed her hand and led her towards the closet. Aurora's eyes froze on the branded dresses, shoes and makeup. Her collection of bags were also displayed lavishly. On the other side she could also see Rafael's brand
Midst of Darkness! 41. Breathing in like air!
Aurora's POV Birds chirped outside as soft sunshine graced the ground. The birds are dancing out with freedom which I don't have. The scene out of the window looked nothing but like a fairytale and I would have loved to run around with a long gown and basket of cookies like a fairytale character. But the reality is this is not a fairytale and I am not free and Rafael made it clear with a powerful thrust which rolled back my eyes. His rough hands gathered my hair in fist and kissed all over my back with his throaty groans. Sending goosebumps and shivers to my soul, I clutched on my pillow when he thrust harder. His hard muscles rubbing on my back and mocking me about how weak I am in front of him. I bit my lips to stop my slutty moans but I can't help it. He does this on purpose, he knows I don't like it and that's why he makes me hear my own moans. To show me that my body doesn't give a fuck about what my mind thinks. I stilled under him and my body couldn't take the plea

Aurora's POV The day wasn't good with all the negative thoughts running in my mind and hollowness in my heart. So many times I tried to gulp my tears throughout the day while mourning for my freedom. My empty house was much more appealing than this golden cage filled with criminals. For a minute I was thinking about escaping from here but how? Possibilities and probabilities ran in my mind. Can I get out of this castle? May be I can if I try. But will I be able to get out of the city? I might but where will I go? Rafael has the whole system in his pocket and he can turn the situation in his favour without uttering the word. He will drag me back to the place from where I escaped. There was a last option that I can sell my house, take all the money and leave the country. Hide somewhere, where he can't find me but is this logical?

"Aurora, Please listen to me..." A few heads were already turned towards them when they heard the shattering of the glass. Rafael walked towards them when he understood that Aurora wasn't going to take this well. She was on the verge of crying and the effect of betrayal was clear on her face. "Later!" He wrapped arm around her shoulders and pulled away from Katrina. "What's wrong with that girl... Isn't she weird?" Patricia scowled at Aurora. "And why did she call you Catherine?" Katrina shook her head. "You won't understand!" Aurora was in complete shock and couldn't think straight. She recalled the time they had spent together.

"Are you going to punish them?" She asked innocently. "Do you want me to?" He smirked. "I don't know..." She sighed. "I don't like when people get hurt but they always hurt me." She looked at him while resting on his chest. "Do you know what happened?" His jaw clenched in pain when he saw the pain in her eyes. He wrapped an arm around her as she started speaking. "My parents used to punish me instead of Aria... She used to make all the mistakes and I used to get all the punishment for it.
