“Gladly.” Derick grabbed Carter’s face in his hands and covered his lips with his. Without hesitation, Carter opened up his mouth to receive him. Moaning softly, their lips entangled and entwined, creating cute little sounds as they both fought for dominance. Derick reached for Carter’s shirt and began to unbutton it, while Carter reached for Derick’s pants and unbuckled his belt. Before he could pull his pants down his legs, Derick got his hands off him and lifted him, letting him wrap his legs around his torso. A smile flashed across Carter’s face as he balanced his weight on Derick’s body and went in for the kiss again. His hands grabbed into Derick’s hair, pulling and pushing him in and out as they both devoured each other. Without breaking off the kiss, Derick began to head to his room. He could feel Carter’s hardened manhood press against him as he lifted him. And it was the same for Carter, as Derick’s shaft kept teasing him from under. After a few minutes, Carter bro
“Mom! Dad!” The boys called as they walked into the living room to meet Aurora and Arthur sleeping on the couch. Arthur’s eyes slowly opened as their voices filled his ears. He groaned softly as he grabbed his head and slowly looked around. He furrowed his brows as soon as he saw that his head was on Aurora’s chest. Without thinking twice, he got away from her, and in the process, woke her up. Aurora moaned as she also opened her eyes. Though she managed to get some sleep, she was still very sleepy. She was up most of the night because Arthur wouldn’t stop throwing up and sulking like a baby. “Mom!” Ryan called again as they both hurried to meet them. Arthur gulped hard and tried as much as he could to avoid looking at Aurora. He knew what went down the previous night even though he was drunk, and he also wasn’t ready to talk about it with her. “We are ready for school!” Riley uttered, showing them his backpack. “Oh! That’s great. Uncle Theo took care of you?” Aurora asked tire
After Derick left Arthur’s mansion, Aurora returned to Arthur’s room to check on him, and getting there, she found him still sleeping soundly. She approached his bed silently so as not to wake him up and carefully sat on the edge of the bed. She stared at his face as she began to recall everything Derick had told her about him again. She had no idea who Anita was or what she looked like but she hated her so much for hurting Arthur so much. She wished she had met the old, loving, Arthur. Derick made her realize how soft he used to be. “I can’t wait for you to go back to the man you used to be, Mr. Arthur. If that’s even going to ever happen.” She muttered, racing her index finger over his face. Arthur’s eyes tightened as soon as he felt Aurora touch him. His eyes slightly parted, causing Aurora to hastily move away from the bed. “Mr. Arthur.” She called softly. Arthur clenched his jaws as he stretched out, turning to lay on his side. “What are you doing here?” He asked in a lo
Placing his soup on the table, Aurora sat at the dining table and waited for him to dive in. She couldn’t stop smiling, believing she and Arthur just had a moment in the kitchen. “Do you have to watch me eat?” Arthur asked, picking up the spoon and scooping some soup. “Yes. I have to make sure you finish all of it. It will help your hangover and fever.” Aurora answered. He heaved a sigh and slowly nodded, covering the spoon with his mouth as he took some porridge in. Arthur's face lit up again in reaction to the taste of the porridge satisfying his taste buds even more than it did when he tasted it in the kitchen. “Why does the taste of my food cause a reaction on your face all the time?” Aurora asked with a chuckle, and he smirked. “Maybe because it tastes so good? Where did you learn how to cook?” He asked. “Well, I didn’t learn it. I kept doing it over and over again until I got better. My mother isn’t such a great mother, so she hardly cooked for me even when I was young.
“But if you want to go, then you can go. I can just call my doctor.” Arthur mumbled, trying to reach for his phone. “I already canceled on him, Arthur. I can’t go back again.” Aurora answered, dropping her bag and rushing into the bathroom to get the water and towel. When she was out of the room, Arthur turned to look at Ryan and chuckled. “This stays between us.” He whispered to him. “Chocolate?” Ryan asked, stretching his hand to him. “Ask Theo to give all of you. He still has some chocolates in the store.” He answered, still speaking in a low tone. The boys excitedly got off the bed and ran out of the room to fetch Theo. As soon as Aurora came out of the bathroom, Arthur pointed to the door. “Can you please lock that? I don’t want the boys coming to disturb me again.” Arthur said to her, and she nodded, heading to the door to lock it. Locking the door, she approached Arthur’s bed and sat next to him, placing the bowl of water on the bedside table. While she soaked the tow
“I don’t think he’ll want me there,” Carter muttered as he cuddled with Derick. Derick invited him to Arthur’s thirty-fifth birthday party, but Carter just couldn’t see how he was going to enjoy himself there. Since he left Arthur’s house, he has hardly seen or talked to him. I just wanted to stay away for reasons best known to him. “Why would you say that? Of course, he wants you there. You’re going to be with me.” Derick insisted, causing Carter to roll his eyes. “That’s the only reason why he’d want me there. Because I’m with you, not because we are friends. And what if he acts strange that day when he sees me in his mansion, hun?” “He wouldn’t. I promise. I’ll let him know you’ll be coming, so this will prepare him, okay? Pretty please come. Because of me.” Derick muttered, caressing Carter’s arms as he spoke. Carter let out a loud sigh and eventually nodded. “Fine. I’ll go since you can’t stop sulking about it.” He muttered, and Derick muttered. He lifted his head and plun
The day was finally day. The day everyone in Arthur’s House anticipated, including Arthur himself. He couldn’t wait to see the surprise on Aurora’s face when he gave her the dress he got for her. He refused to say a word about it, and Aurora had to sort out her dress as she never expected anything of such. The preparations began in the house. Though Aurora drafted the plans, Arthur insisted that she didn’t do any lifting or decorations. All she had to do was supervise and instruct. While she was in the living room, Theo took care of the boys in their room, getting them dressed smartly in their cute neatly tailored suits. Arthur walked out of the room and headed to the living room to see that the decorations were almost done. His living room looked so beautiful, different, and spacious. But this wasn’t the source of his excitement. He needed Aurora to try on her dress as soon as possible. He couldn’t wait anymore. “Aurora!” He called from on top of the stairs, raising his head.
“Who is she to Arthur? Why is he so possessive of her?” Josh asked Derick as they watched him pull Aurora away from the man. “Well, you should know the answer by now,” Derick answered, his eyes scanning the room, looking for his man. “He’s in love with her? That is impossible! It’s Arthur’s rule never to fall in love.” Josh uttered in awe. “Rules are meant to be broken, Josh. I’d advise you to settle down, already. Even Arthur has found love. Enough of trying to have every woman in the whole world.” Derick responded, carefully placing his glass on the table as he left to get Carter. Arthur kept holding Aurora’s hand until they were very far from the young man who kept making her laugh and chuckle. “Do you know him?” Arthur asked, looking at Aurora. “Who? That man?” She asked as they both looked in his direction. “No, I don’t. But he’s a very nice man. He knows so many things. Super intelligent and funny! You should get to know each other!” Aurora uttered in excitement, and Arth
