AURORAWith a surge of adrenaline, I pushed him away, my heart racing with excitement."That's enough," I spat, trying to sound calm.Jacob grinned, his eyes glinting with amusement. "We're just getting started, Aurora," he whispered, his voice sending shivers down my spine.He turned me around and brought his lips unto my neck. I moaned at the feeling it gave to me.I could feel myself getting wet already, I couldn't control the moans that came out of my mouth.As Jacob's lips grazed my neck, I felt my body melt into his touch. It was like he had a magnetic pull over me, drawing me in with every kiss, every caress.I tried to push him away again, but my body seemed to have a mind of its own. My hands grasped his shoulders, holding him close as he devoured my neck with hungry kisses.His fingers danced down my spine, sending shivers down my back. I moaned again, the sound echoing through the room as I lost myself in the moment.But as the kiss deepened, I started to feel a pang of gui
AURORAI got out of the shower with my hair wet and heavy, I have been meaning to get a good wash out of it and today was just the perfect day.“You ready?” Carina asked as I sat down in front of my mirror.“Yeah,” I never really allow anyone to touch my hair other than Carina because she knows the right amount of treatment and beauty products to use to make my hair shine.“Are you okay, Aurora? You have been quiet for the past few days,” she asked me.“Yeah,” I lied, I haven't been okay ever since the day I had a full blown sex with Jacob in my head beside the room.It felt so real at the time and also right but waking up from my trance and finding out I was almost kidnapped made the whole thing sound like a make believe so I kept everything to myself.“Are you regretting what you said about Jacob in your last press conference?” She asked and I shook my head.“No, I'm not. I never knew him,” I said, looking at her through the window.“I bet he was hurt by your words,” she said and I
AURORAI stared at both of them in disbelief and confused, I never pegged both of them to be the kind to have sex in the office.“Linda, can I speak to you?” I asked her, trying so hard to conceal my laughter.“Of course,” she said to me and nudged Steven to walk away.“Miss Aurora,” he greeted as he passed by me.“Steven,” I called out his name in a playful manner and walked into Linda's office.We have made our peace with each other and I really appreciate the work he is doing. It is clean and efficient.I walked into Linda's office and suddenly felt goosebumps. It's weird being in here without the first owner of this office, who I laid off.“I could turn down the AC,” Linds said.“Don't worry, that's not the reason,” I said, taking my hands from my body.“It's been a while since you graced us with your presence,” She said,“Yeah, I can see that,” I said to her, she smiled and blushed.“I'm sorry you had to see that,” she said, taking a seat.“Don't be sorry, I'm actually envious of
AURORAI raced to the bathroom to throw up while Martin and his men tackled the man in my room. When did this go wrong? How did Linda get this man here? Is she still working for Katherine?“Aurora!” Carina screamed my name.“In here!” I yelled as I placed a balm around my neck.“Thank goodness you are okay,” she said, hugging me.There weren't any injuries on my neck but the mark of his hands were everywhere around my neck.“I just wanted my mind off some stuff,” I said to her, trying to keep my voice steady.“You will be fine,” she said and I nodded. Of course I will be, this is just another list of scars already on me.“Where is he?” I demanded.“At the back of the house,” Carina said, looking confused about why I asked.I dropped my towel and headed there, “you shouldn't be there Aurora, it's nasty!” She yelled but I didn't care.This is the second attempt on my life within a short period of time and I need answers. I need them fast and I need them now.“Haaa!” I flinched at the ag
AURORAI held my chest as I listened to Linda on the phone, “they took Mary, Aurora. They took her,” she cried even more. She is a mother. I didn't expect her to do anything less.“Please calm down, Linda. I need you to ping your location to Martin's cell. Can you do that?” I asked her.“Yes,” she said, her voice, shaking.“Okay, good we are on our way,” I said and handed Martin back his phone.“Stop, stop,” the detective said.“Detective, I don't have the time for your snacky remarks right now,” I said to him.“No, snarky remarks, you can't leave the station. Who knows if this is just a ruse to get you out without much protection,” he said.“He is not wrong,” Martin agreed with him.“I understand that but I can't leave Linda all by herself. Her daughter is comatose, she needs all the help I can give her,” I said to both of them.“Fine but you are going with some police protection and you are coming straight right here. If this is a kidnapping, it's now a police matter,” he said.“Wha
AURORAI walked out of the office, feeling defeated and dejected. I placed myself around the hallway as I tried to think of next steps.How did she find out Linda was working for me? What kind of slip up will make this happen?I came back to this city to show Jacob I could be better without him and to have my revenge on him and Katherine but somehow the table has been turned and I'm the one being tortured.“I need a phone,” I said to Martin, who walked outside with me. He placed a call and in about a minute a brand new phone was handed to me.I used it to tap my palm, trying to think of a decision to make.“Ahh!” I threw the phone against the wall, screaming.“I'm fine, Martin,” I stopped him from coming close to me, he nodded and stood back.The door of the interrogation room opened up and the detective peeked outside.“She is calling again,” he said and I hurried with him into the room.I flinched at the sight of my assailant, Martin stood between the both of us.“Don't worry,” he s
AURORAI tried to break the glass between us but nothing seems to be working. Thankfully the paramedic came with some tools and we got her out.“Mary, everything is going to be okay,” I tried talking to her.Martin walked in with the detective and some cops.“Start gathering evidence,” he ordered and I handed him the watch.“If she is close we will know with this,” he said, dangling the digital watch.“She is seizing!” One of the paramedics yelled and I rushed to Mary.“What's going on?” I asked as I watched her shake violently.“She is having a seizure,” one of them said as they turned her to her side.“Is that safe?” I asked.“Are you the mother?” They asked and I shook my head.“Then give us space to work,” one of them said and pushed me aside.“Hey, she's only trying to help!” Martin yelled but I stopped him from saying more.“It's alright,” they wheeled Mary out of the building and I followed right behind them.“Since you are not family, you can't ride with us,” the one who shove
JACOBWhy does everything have to be had with her? Why can't she just see that I'm trying to make up for the mistakes I made.I stood in front of her hospital room as she got wheeled out of my sight, I dropped the flowers by her door and walked out of the hospital.I'm trying to be the better man for her but she seems to be pushing me away at every opportunity she can get.Why? Is there something holding her back or someone else?Or is there something she is planning to do to me but can't be seen with me? I mean she already told the press, she doesn't know me. What exactly do I need to do?I got into my car and drove straight to the first club I saw on my google map.I haven't been in a club in a while, especially ever since Braden got married and Maria got pregnant.I hit the club and the loud music filled my head. I walked straight to the bar and ordered a lot of drinks on my tab.I could see some of the ladies already flirting with me with their eyes so I notioned for them to come
