AURORA I sighed, and looked at the video of my twin sister, sitting on a dirty bed in a place that looks like an abandoned wine cellar. “So this is the way to get your health huh?” I asked, taking my eyes off the tablet, looking at Phillip. “My sister doesn't have anything to do with this,” I said and Philip laughed. “Of course she does,” Spencer said. “Your mother already had her will drawn out and she handed it over to her executor. Her empire was divided into two, Clinton Empire which she named after your father and billion dollar Beauty House,” Philip said and my eyes widened. My Mom owns Beauty House, it is one of the biggest fashion houses in the world. They deal with everything including, trending fashion clothing, makeup and skincare. “So what, you want all of that for yourself l?” I asked him. “That's not possible.” “You sound like you have a choice,” Spencer said and took my arms. “Stop it, Spencer,” Venessa said before he could twist my arm. “She is going to give u
JACOBI walked into Martin's private security company and headed straight for his office with Michael and Liam closely behind me. I had Ryan be the head of Amy's protection details along with other guys in my security team.Martin and Clay stood up from their seats the minute they saw me. “Who let you in here?” Martin asked.“I let myself in. We are going to have to work together if we are to bring Aurora home,” I said and he scoffed.“She was home at least with us, until you allowed her to work out of the hospital alone,” he said firmly.“She said she needed to do this alone. I couldn't stop her. Even if I wanted to,” I sighed. An adjacent door in his office opened and Carina walked out of it.“You didn't want to because you are scared that she will flare up and you will lose her,” Carina said to me.“That's not true, Carina. Aurora and I forgave each other. I didn't need to be scared of losing her. I just needed to trust her.”“Well, you trusted her too much,” Madeline cried out.
AURORA“So what’s the plan?” I asked Jacob and Martin. I looked at both of them. They seem lost, unsure of what to do or how to do it.I rolled my eyes and waved my hands, “well the sweet talk worked. Now I will have to figure out the rest myself,"I was about to open the door of my office, Martin stood behind me and closed it loudly.“Shit,” he cursed. “They definitely heard that,” he said.“You think, Martin?” I rolled my eyes at him. Took a deep breath and waited for the guards to knock on the door.“One, two…” the knock came, Martin and Jacob hid in my private office.“Everything alright ma’am?” one of them asked and I rolled my eyes.“I have every right to destroy my own property, including my door,” I rolled my eyes as they all looked at me like I had on my face. Except the one asking the question. “You can leave now, I need my privacy,” I said to them. The one who looked like the boss and was also asking questions, walked towards me and looked around.“Search everywhere,” he co
AURORAWe ran towards each other, jumping in each other’s arms in a tight hug. We didn’t care about the people around us. We cried out because of all the years we have missed with each other. All the pains we have received since our parents died-our real parents. The memories we were supposed to have were taken from us all because some men didn’t like the fact our mother was at the top of her game. “Oh my goodness, you are so beautiful,” Aubrey gushed over me, trying hard to smile.“So are you,” I said, holding her face, “you are stunning,” her eyes turned sour when she looked straight into the living room.“You can’t trust her, Aurora,” Aubrey said, standing in front of me and shielding me with her body. “ I thought I could trust her too, because I knew she was Mom’s sister but it turns out that, Aunt Venessa here, will do anything this crappy man called Philp tells her to do,” she said, sounding so angry.“You need to calm down, Aubrey,” Venessa said to her.“No!” Aubrey yelled. “
AURORA“Will you help me with that or you are just going to stand there,” Carina pointed at me. I sighed and handed her the blue bag and she shoved it inside a bigger bag.“I can't believe you are leaving me,” I pouted. She stops what she is doing and looks at me.“Oh come on, Love. It's not like I'm going away. I'm just moving a bit down the aisle,” she said, trying to make me feel better.“I still don't know why you didn't just stay with Andre. I mean you guys just got engaged.”“Well, he is going to have to put another ring in this finger for that to happen. You know how much I like my personal space,” she said looking around her room.This whole place could fit in another room. That's how much she loves her personal space.“I'm so happy for you, Hun,” I said, fangirling over her engagement ring. It's a five-carat diamond. Andre went all the way out.“I'm happy too,” she said. I could see the tears gathering in her eyes. “I think you know how much this means to me,” she said. I n
AURORAI walked into Jacob's home and everywhere was blasting with music. The people in the living room didn't even notice I was in the room because they just kept wilding it out.I searched around the room and noticed Jacob passed out on the couch. I hurriedly walked towards the huge speaker and unplugged it.“Hey!” That was the sound from everyone. They were all drunk.“Get out now! Everyone!” I yelled into the microphone. They all rushed out of the house immediately.I walked towards Jacob and tried waking him up. “Jacob, hey,” I tapped his cheeks but he didn't wake up.I didn't see Micheal or Liam when I arrived. They must be in their quarters.I was about to call Michael when Amy walked down the stairs in her night robe.“Oh thank goodness, Amy. Help me get him up,” I said.“I will get someone who can,” she hurried back up the stairs and a minute later came back with Ryan.“Oh, hello Ryan,” I tried to pretend that I didn't know what was going on.“Please don't say anything to my
AURORAI walked out of Jacob's home and headed straight for my car. I could feel his eyes on me as I got out through his window but I didn't care about that right now.The group has striked again and this time to someone close. I thought it was over arresting Venessa, Philip and Spencer. Along with the man who murdered Steven but it looks like they are hellbent on taking what's mine because they can't handle a woman being more powerful than them.I got to the prison Venessa was placed in. We petition the Judge to separate her from Phillip and Spencer. We can't have them conspiring ever again.As I got out of my car, I noticed Aubrey and Madeline walking towards me. Of course she is here. Martin spoke to her as well.“What are you doing here, Aubrey?” I asked, pretending not to know why she is here.“I thought we would talk to Venessa together. You know, now that the scale has risen,” she said and I closed the door of my car loudly.“Good,” I said when she flinched. “I can be scary too
AURORAThe shots kept coming, passing over the cars that we shielded our bodies with.“I don't think these guys are professional,” Madeline said.“No, they just want to hit something,” I gave a sigh of relief when we heard the police siren.“They seem to have stopped,” Madeline said, getting up.“No, stay down Madeline,” I brought her down immediately and another round of bullets went through our heads.“That was too close,” she said, breathing heavily.“Until the cops get here, we don't move,” I said to her.She nodded fidgeting. Madeline's eyes were wide with fear, her gaze darting back and forth between the cars and the surrounding buildings. I held her tight, trying to shield her from harm."Stay calm, they'll be here soon," I whispered, trying to reassure her.The sirens grew louder, and I could see the flashing lights reflecting off the nearby windows. The shooters seemed to sense the approaching police, too, and their gunfire slowed to less erratic shots.Suddenly, the firing s
