Aurora’s POVWhen I opened my eyes again, I was back in the Blood Moon Pack. Laying down on the bed in Klaus’s room to be precise. The room was dimly lit but I could make my way around easily. I remembered how I had been paralyzed previously and I immediately sat up to test my strength. I was back to normal! Okay, good. Now let me try getting up. I got off the bed with surprising ease. Thank goodness! I never wanted to feel paralyzed ever again. It was like being trapped inside a room and only being able to watch the world through a small window. “Easy there, tiger” I heard Klaus say from somewhere in the room. I had been so concerned with my mobility that I didn’t even realize he was in the room with me. “Um hi,” I said. In the next instant, Klaus was standing right next to me. “Aurora.” He said cupping my face towards him. “Are you ok?” He asked. “Yeah, I’m fine now. Thanks so much for coming right when you did” I blurted out. “You can move around already? Hmm,” He said thought
Aurora’s POV:Desire exploded in my brain as our lips met in what I would describe as perfect harmony. I welcomed the warm sensations that spread through my body as his tongue invaded my mouth, exploring every inch of it. My lips parted even more, giving him full access. If it hadn’t been for his hands holding me, I was sure I would have collapsed because my legs felt like they were made of jelly. With every second that passed, I could feel my senses evaporating until the only thing left of my emotions was need. I needed more. I needed Klaus to continue kissing me and never stop. The feel of his lips against mine was befuddling, and I could only think about how right it felt. I let out a muffled moan as one hand grabbed my right breast and fondled it gently. His thumb rubbed around my nipple in gentle circles, sending small waves of ecstasy through my skin. I nearly cried out in protest when his mouth slowly tore away from mine. Whereas I was a panting mess, greedily gasping for air
Aurora’s POVI woke up with a lazy smile. It must have been around midday when I woke up because the sun was shining very brightly through the windows. I stretched my limbs while thinking about how I hadn’t had such good sleep in a while. Looking around, I realized that this wasn’t my room and I gasped when memories of the night before came crashing through my brain. Thankfully, I was alone in the room as I relieved the most erotic night of my life. Goodness! Had I really let Klaus do all those things to me? And to think that I had been screaming for the most part. Oh no! I hadn’t stopped to think about how high my screams were, everyone in this castle must have heard my moans. In fact, I hadn’t been thinking at all last night. It was like I had transformed into some type of junkie whose addiction was a certain egoistic Alpha. A blush crept through my cheeks as I thought about how willing I had been last night. I practically had begged for him to sleep with me. ‘And he refused’ I re
Aurora’s POV“Oh sorry” I apologized immediately. “It’s fine,” Savannah says but her tone makes it seem like it’s anything but fine. She gives me a once-over and scrunches her nose. “Yeah,” I say. This was awkward. I started to walk away when Savannah called me back. “Aurora?” She looks like she’s debating whether or not to speak. “Yeah?”“I’m only saying this because you seem like a nice lady but whatever you think is going on between you and the Alpha, it’s not going to last.” Savannah finally said.“I’m not sure what you mean…” I trailed off“All I’m saying is that you seem like the kind of girl who is looking for forever, true love kind of stuff. But Klaus is just not the type of man to settle down” She takes my shoulders in her hands, rubbing them softly. “I don’t want you to get your hopes up because you’ve been in his bed and all.”“Ohhh…” What exactly was I supposed to say to her advice?“I’m sure you are a smart girl though,” Savannah said as she squeezed my shoulders gen
Klaus fumed as he tackled pending paperwork littered on his desk. He could hardly focus on the task at hand as his mind kept drifting back to Aurora and the argument they had. He had half a mind to walk back to her room and tell her that he would never let her leave him willingly. However, he could not go back on his word. He had told her that he would let her leave in the spur of the moment and had regretted it immediately. It would be a total disaster if she decided to take him up on his offer. The mate bond might not be fully developed between them, but he was sure he would not survive being separated from her for a long time. Curse his temper, he should have controlled himself better with her. How could he have told her to leave when there was the threat of her ex? There was no way he could let her leave. Not on her own anyway. He became aware of a female’s scent invading his surroundings just as a series of short knocks sounded on the door. His aunt, Danielle, waltzed in with
Aurora’s POVNever would I have imagined that one day I would ask the dreaded Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack to marry me. I could see that I had managed to shock him with my proposal. Hell, I was shocked I had mustered up enough courage to say it. How had I even gotten to this point when only a few hours ago, I had been clamoring to leave? Let me backtrack a bit. After Klaus had left, I thought hard about what I wanted. I had a child to factor into my decisions after all. I realized that even if I left, I would always be connected to Klaus because of my child. Then I thought about how I wanted to give my child the best upbringing possible. Sure, I would do a good job on my own but I didn’t want my child to grow up with only one parent like I had. My mom had been a great parent but there had been a void that could only be filled by a father. And my stepfather had been the furthest thing away from a father figure. Even though I ended up reuniting with my dad, I only had the luxury of l
Aurora’s POVI sat close to the window overlooking the orchard, and deep down, I couldn't help but wonder how I had gotten into all of these. How my once simple but sad life had evolved into this complicated shit… and now, I was pregnant and about to be married to the King Superior! The one person I never imagined to live the rest of my life with.I sipped the pina colada slowly, thinking, and was only snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the sudden knock on my door. I jumped.“Come in!” I screamed, not bothering to ask who it was. A few seconds later, a petite maid walked in. She had her head bowed and was looking everywhere but my face. I watched as she played with her fingers as if desperately trying to avoid my gaze.“What is it?” I snapped impatiently.The girl jumped at the tone of my voice. She shot a pitiable look my way before she responded; “there is a lady outside that wants to see you. She said she’s a friend.”At first, I was shocked at her words. I had no friends besid
Aurora’s POV:“Ma’am, it’s this way…” the petite nurse said to Emily with a soulful smile on her face.I saw Emily smile back, which was strange as she never did. I ignored her and the nurse as I staggered across the disinfectant-smelling corridor to room 307B, where my father was.As soon as I arrived there, I pushed the door open and gasped at the scene that befell me. It was my father alright but he looked extremely different. His face was pale and sunken and his eyeballs bulged from the thin layer which was his eyelids. His creamy complexion had also been replaced by an ashen-colored skin, one that looked as though it had seen death. Involuntarily, a tear slipped out of my eye.“What happened to you?” I sobbed, cradling his face in my hands. He felt cold to the touch and I even sobbed harder at the thought of him being almost dead.A few minutes later, Emily waltzed in with my mother right behind her. They looked like two contrasts as my mother was sobbing profusely while Emily ha
Unknown POV: (3 years later) Klaus and Aurora sat by the veranda, looking out at the field while young children played around, young children about their children’s age. Aurora was happy and her heart felt full… but somehow, somewhere deep inside her heart, she felt uneasy. She didn’t know what was wrong but she did know that she was uncomfortable. Her eyes wandered to where her children sat and seeing how they were still so engrossed with their toys, she smiled. “Maybe, I’m just so paranoid.” She mused, causing Klaus to turn to her. He asked her what she had said and after telling him about her thoughts, he let out a breath and muttered; “it’s been several years now, love. We’re fine now. Everyone is happy now… stop overthinking these things. The children, the pack is safe.” “But the children are too strong.” Aurora cried, “…it would take just one glance at them for an outsider to know that they’re different. They don’t even act like their mates!” “And how do you expect
Aurora’s POV:The glasses clinked as Klaus and I made a toast and while everyone sipped from our glasses, we didn’t. We only took the first sip after the toast and then poured most of the remaining contents of our drinks on the paper in the bin. It was our Prenuptial agreement. The stupid arrangement that Klaus had come up with when we first met. A smile tugged at my lips as I remembered those times and in awe of how much we’ve grown since then, I leaned into him for a hug.“Thank you,” I whispered, kissing his chest, uncaring if my red lipstick would stain his crisp white shirt. He didn’t seem to bother too as he also leaned closer, placed a kiss on my forehead, and whispered;“No, thank you, my love.”I blushed.It was the fiercest blush I have had in a while and everyone who noticed this began to laugh excitedly. At this moment, I looked around us, at my parents who were cheering and clapping at Bella while she made funny faces at David and Davina, at Jasmine who had tears stream
Aurora’s POV:I watched in curiosity as the flames lit up the evening sky, causing tons of smoke to fill the atmosphere in an almost suffocating manner. There were agonized screams coming from everywhere, but it was one from agony not from pain. Agony because a source of their livelihood was burning down, agony because a lot of money was being burnt to a crisp. Nobody was in pain, no. Klaus and I made sure no one would get hurt.While everyone had a piece of cloth or paper covering the lower parts of their face to block their nostrils from the angry fumes, I didn’t. I took it all in, giggling and happy.Klaus was standing beside me and he seemed just as pleased as I was. The only difference was that he wasn’t showing his emotions on his face. He still appeared stoic and nonchalant.One of Klaus’ soldiers held a limp Michael by his collar while he was made to watch his lifelong sweat go down the drain. He was quiet all through but his emotions were as bright as day. Tears streaked his
Aurora’s POV:My breath hitched in my throat as I watched Damon saunter into the room, brandishing a large gun on his shoulders. I saw more than a few Elders shrink away in fear and I almost barked out a laugh from how stupid they appeared doing that.However, I was quickly snapped to the present when I felt something cold against my skin and I frowned when I saw that it was the gun and that Damon was pressing it against my head.“And what is happening here?” He asked no one in particular, but his gaze was planted firmly on Klaus’ face.Without thinking, I pushed the gun away and got up, standing between Klaus and Damon. “What are you doing here?” I asked him instead, evading his question.I saw Damon’s eyes widen but I wasn’t sure if it was because he noticed that I wasn’t scared of him even with a gun or because of something else entirely. Choosing that opportunity, I stepped closer to him until we were almost standing chest to chest and whispered;“Leave… nothing here is any of you
The chatter in the room died down as soon he stepped in with his mate stalking behind him. Normally, anyone who saw them would think she was hiding behind him but that was unlike the case here.She was protecting him. She was his aide, his bodyguard, and his Luna.People knew them. Word had gotten out. She was the last of her kind. The only white wolf left in their entire world and people feared her for that. The elders who once wanted Klaus out of the throne because he wasn’t ‘fit’ now thought otherwise. With a Luna like her, you would always be fit.“King Klaus!” An old man with a boisterous voice called out. His voice rang around the room and when Aurora turned to regard him, he shrunk into his chair.Aurora always wanted to be respected, not feared. These days after a lot of people came to know what she was, she noticed that many now feared her. Those who respected her before feared and respected her now, and those who never respected her only feared her now.Right now, ignoring t
Klaus’ POV: I watched her, my mate, with fascination as she wiped the sweat off her face with the back of her hand and stepped away from the now limp form of a beat-up Alpha; and I couldn’t help but feel more proud of her than I already was. I loved how she’d gotten every information she wanted out of Michael without laying a finger on him… but considering the amount of damage she’d done to him, I wasn’t sure I could still classify her methods of torture as not laying a finger on him. She smiled at me when she came up to me, a smile that was so bright no one could imagine what she had been doing for the past hour. She handed her phone to me and I smiled when I noticed that it was still recording, even until now. Quietly, I shut it off and pulled her into a hug. “Thank you…” I whispered but she shook her head immediately. “What—?” “No, thank you,” She whispered lovingly, “…for acknowledging that this is my fight and not trying to get into it. At first, I didn’t know what to
Aurora’s POV: I stood in a corner of the dark room with amusement gleaming in my eyes while Emily glared daggers at me. By the other end, just opposite Emily was Michael who was still fast asleep as a result of the effect of the drug I had knocked him out with. Klaus’ guards had chained him to the metal chair and left him to my mercy… or so I thought until I smelled him, Klaus. I didn’t even turn around to acknowledge him. I didn’t even flinch. “What’re you doing here?” I murmured under my breath, but loud enough that he could hear me. He threw a glance at me. There was a hint of mischief in his eyes when he simply said; “I am here to watch you work.” Deep down, even though I tried to believe him, I knew that he was lying. I could feel it deep inside our mate bond. My heart clenched in my chest when I realized that he was here because he didn’t trust me not to hurt them so much, or perhaps even kill them but I didn’t say a word as regards that. I simply blinked back the tears
Aurora’s POV:I stepped into the dimly lit restaurant with a sultry smile gracing my lips. Even before I stepped in, I already knew where Michael was seated so I immediately made my way to him, almost basking in delight when his eyes widened as soon as he took in my appearance.“Queen superior…” he let out almost breathlessly. His eyes settled just on my exposed cleavage for a few seconds before he begrudgingly pulled them to my face.“…I thought I was supposed to meet with King Klaus today.” He pointed out, eyeing me skeptically.I shrugged; “well, hello to you too, Michael. I am doing fine and you?!” I sassed, eliciting a breathy chuckle from him.“Oh, I’m so sorry, Aurora, I was so stunned by your beauty that I momentarily forgot my manners.” He quickly responded.If that was his silly excuse for flattery then he had a lot more to learn. Refusing to show how unimpressed I was by him, I smiled, briefly exposing my pearly whites. “You flatter me!”Resting against the table, I leaned
Aurora’s POV:I was in the middle of outlining my lips with my new Charlotte Tilbury red lipstick when Klaus stepped into the room. I noticed how his eyes sexily roamed my body before landing on my eyes.“You look stunning,” he let out, his voice no more than a breathy moan escaping his lips. I smiled my toothy smile at him and turned to take a quick glance at my reflection in the mirror.“Thank you, love,” I murmured back.I was clad in a little red dress, and when I say little, I mean that it did little to cover my curves. It was a long dress alright but had a very high slit by the left side, one that almost reached my waist. The neckline was low and droopy, exposing more cleavage than I would have liked but that didn’t deter me. In fact, it made me feel like I could pull this off.My silver hair was in a tight ponytail but after noticing how serious it made me look, I released it, letting it drop and then I stepped away from the mirror.Klaus was already behind me when I spun away
