Aurora's POVTaking a step backward, I watched the doctor carry out their duties carefully, and not once did my eyes stray from his face, although they were pale and he seemed to be going through pain with all of the many processes going on, I could tell that he was better. Just staring at his eyes which were opened, made me happy. I drew my gaze away from his when he's met mine and he winked at me, what was he doing? Why was I having ripples in my stomach? And why was I finding it hard to breathe all of a sudden? I blinked, turned around, and met Roselyn whose eyes were fixed on me, a non-smiling expression on her face. Did I do something wrong? I wondered. "Are you okay?" I asked her, walking toward her and holding the tray. "Yes, of course, I am, why do you think I am not?" She pulled back, watching my reaction. "No," I shook my head. "Nothing, it is just that I thought you were because of the look you had on your face" I answered her. " Oh, nothing," " Princess" the head doc
Zeeb's POV"You had just one assignment, just one and you flopped it, now tell me what should I do to you" I swung the bat I had over his head. It was annoying when I found out that he had plans of running away, running away from me when he didn't carry out what I had instructed him to. I had sent men to get him and had pulled him back here just like the disappointment that he was. "Father please'' he pleaded, sweating profusely. "I did all that you instructed me to and somehow, somehow, we were met with an ambush'' he tried to explain but I wasn't having it. Not when I had lost most of my men. Most of the men who meant a lot to me."They died just like chickens" I gritted my teeth when I recalled the bodies laying cold, and lifeless. All I had thought was that they would be successful but still, "Father please, do not do this to me, I promise, I promise to rectify it and.."" Shut up" I growled at him, my fist wrapped firmly around the bat in my hands, I was holding myself back fr
Aurora's POV"Be careful" I whispered to Ramon as though he was a fragile egg that I didn't want to break open. With hands wrapped around his arms firmly, we stepped into the elevator together, guards by our side, making sure no one would get hurt."You have to stop treating me like I would break into pieces" I rolled my eyes at what he had just said. " Who knows if you will, I have to be careful especially now that you are mine" I whispered into his ears, running my tongue on it, a smile crept on my face when goosebumps formed on his skin. "What do you think you are doing, young lady?" " Putting a mark on you, my beloved" I bit into my lips when I saw the shy look on his face. Was he blushing?I chuckled softly, and walked out together with him when the elevator dinged, "You should be a little bit reserved, what do you think people would say when they find out you are dating someone who is way below your standard?" He asked curiously. " I thought someone kept talking about us not
Sebastian POV"You have to get a life Sebastian, what has gotten into you?" My mother asked angrily, taking away the bottle of red wine which I had placed on top of the table. "Aren't you going to let me be?" I asked her, infuriated. " No, Sebastian, I know you are a lot of things but not this, when did you turn this way? What has gotten into you?" " Ah ah ah" I chuckled softly, " You want to know what had gotten into me?" I asked her. " You want to know what has gotten into me, don't you?" I asked again, " You mother, you are the reason I am like this mother," I screamed at her. My chest heaving up and down heavily. This was insane. For weeks now, my only consolation was alcohol. I have had them stacked up ever since my meeting with Bethany, and the way my mother kept acting like she knew nothing, repelled me. Her sight angered me. Her very existence vexed me. "Talk to me in a way that I would understand, I would like to be of help to you but with this attitude you have, I wou
Sebastian POVI drove as fast as I could not minding the traffic light, it was a miracle that somehow I didn't knock anyone down. He couldn't find out. If he did, everything would be yanked away from me, the pack I loved so much, the power I have now, and even the life I had now. "Please Selina" I stepped on the gas, driving as fast as I could. I could still remember the place where I had met Bethany, there was nothing that would make me not remember. It was the start of all of these troubles I was having now. Exhaling sharply when the building came into sight, I took in a deep breath, trying to stabilize my emotions before stepping out of the car. Something seemed to be bugging out of my pocket and bringing it out, I found out it was my gun. "What was I supposed to do?" I held it firmly, turning it side by side. "Fine" I exhaled, dipping it inside my pocket. I couldn't just leave it in here, it didn't make sense.With my heart beating fast against its rib cage, I walked up the s
Sebastian's POVI yanked the door open to the room that I was sure as hell my mother would be in, I had left my dad to the doctor who was in charge and everything in me kept pushing me on, telling me that he would be okay but still, that glimmer of light which was always with me was dim, telling me repeatedly of how much disappointment I was and how I would be haunted by his ghost if he didn't wake up. Sighing, my gaze wandered to my mother who was seated on the couch, fingers in her lips anxiously, "Son" she called out in shock when I stepped into the room, a gun in my hands and bloody clothes. "Are you okay?" She asked, her hands running on my clothes and her mouth widened when the red crimson blood stained her hands. How was she going to react when she found out that blood belonged to her husband? Would she still call me son like she had just done?"Here" I threw the gun to the ground and chuckled gently. "Hahahaha'' " Mother, there" I repeated, but her eyes, those eyes, told me
Aurora's POVA sigh escaped from my lips as I sauntered out of the house, the large field in view. I gasped out in shock when I saw what was waiting for me. Flipping my head at my parents who were standing at a distance, I was tempted to ask. "Do not tell me that I am going in that?" I asked excitedly. This was going to be my first time and I was going to make the most out of it. "You do not think that we are going to risk what happened the last time again, right?" My mother asked, a smile on her face. I smiled back at her with gratitude. ", Thank you, Father, thank you Mother'' I kissed both of their cheeks before walking toward the jet. Ramon stood at a far distance blowing me kisses from miles away and suddenly, I missed him. My father had bluntly refused my request for him to come with me and now I was alone. Walking up the airstairs, with my heart beating fast against my rib, I took in a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves which were scattered all over the place. "Welcome
Aurora's POVWith a smile that widened at each step that I took, I walked out of the room, leaving everyone stunned. Yes, that was more than enough reason for them to know that I was capable of ruling, how could they think that I, Aurora, would falter before them? "Lowly men" I spat out harshly before taking a step further. My heels clicked on the marble tiles. "Princess, princess" a voice beckoned to me when I was barely steps away from getting into the jet which had brought me here. "Yes?" I flicked my head around, my long hair glistening. " Prince Hardin" he stretched out his hands, extending a handshake. "I will pass" My eyes were fixed on his outstretched hand. Glancing at it, he withdrew it. "Oh okay" he took it back, sliding it into his pocket. "You looked devastatingly beautiful and I must say I was blown away" I rolled my eyes not wanting to partake in one of those numerous lies that men told. "Thank you," I resumed walking, hoping that he would take it as a cue to le
