Chapter Eleven

AURORA My gaze narrows to the blinds, it would seem the sun has risen. I didn't sleep last night, I couldn't sleep, especially not with Caelum watching me. He insisted he wanted to talk, I wasn't sober enough to talk, nor was I sober enough to take the drunk he offered me. I don't have the answers to his questions, if I did have them, I would have given them to him, and moved on to the next hell fate throws at me. But still, Caelum insists we talk, he insists he will hurt me until I break to bits of me, but how? I'm already bits of the girl I used to be. The girl that never grew into a woman, the one that hurt so much, she only knew one language. Caelum wanted us to find common ground, switching between all the languages in my file when he had at least two bottles of liquor. He didn't try one language, the one language I'm fluent in, pain.At some point in the night, he decided to quit trying, and he fell asleep somewhere around an hour ago. I've been watching him sleep, I

Chapter Twelve

******* (Aurora's POV continues) My phone is buzzing somewhere, I can feel it but I'm too drowsy, my body feels weak, too weak to grab the phone, so I let the vibrations die out, only for them to start once again. I groan, my hand lazily stretching and brushing the mattress until I feel the phone on it. With my eyes still closed, I swipe answer. “Hello,” I murmur into it, but the caller says nothing, instead the call drops, with a familiar sound in the back. Thankfully, I dropped the phone, glad I didn't open my eyes to glance at the caller ID because the drowsy effect would have subsided. I'm well over the moon, trying to get myself back to sleep but it appears that the effort I put into answering the phone was substantial enough to awaken me fully. I try to fall back asleep a third time, counting sheep, as a desperate measure but even then I fail. If I worked a full night yesterday, I wouldn't have any problem with sleeping, I would have drunk and danced myself to the after

Chapter Thirteen

AURORA Yesterday was hell, I came home sore and tired from running from store to store with the professional stylist Caelum hired for me. Francesca Weingarten, a woman about my age with the style of a magazine cover girl. Her style is too extravagant for my taste, I prefer the glamour that doesn't scream loud from afar. Away from shopping in the most expensive stores, most of which I left empty-handed because I liked nothing, we also went to the beauty parlour. I enjoy going to hair salons but that was particularly dreadful, I had to go get my hair done in a way Caelum would prefer, straightened. Aside from that, I had to change my nails, to longer nails, with subtle 'elegant' colors that he likes to look at. Francesca also suggested I get a change of hair color, switching it blonde which I was considering until she mentioned it was the color of his wife's hair. I'm not trying to remind him of his wife, I'm trying to make him miss his wife, so he can go running back to her, a

Chapter Fourteen

***** (Aurora's POV continues) I'm in my dressing room, hair already styled and my nails perfectly done to my liking as opposed to the bullshit I let Francesca talk me into doing. The duo dance choreographers were on my neck today, stressing me with the new routine they came up with for us since Emelia was handling the beginners. It took us three hours to finish up with the rehearsals, and an extra hour getting my hair done for my opening act on stage. I love it, when I washed it this morning, I got the curls back but the hair dresser did a wonderful job with straightening it. It's now 11am, but with Layla gone from my apartment, Olivia at work, and Grace out of town, I'm going to be bored. I could binge watch my favourite series but I think I'm going to need more hours for that, plus it's a Saturday activity. My phone lights up on the chair beside me, I see it in the reflection of the mirror as I wear my lipstick. It's ringing but I don't grab it just yet, I first finish wea

Chapter Fifteen

EMELIA I'm running to and fro around the house, looking for the boys in every room of the house with Aurora on my arm, looking for my fiancé in every room of the house. It takes a whole drink before we can go outside, Aurora and I both holding a wine beer in each hand. I'm eager for Aurora to meet my husband to be, something always comes up. With him and if not, then it comes up with Aurora. I've shown Aurora my engagement photos, and she must have seen pictures on my social media but most are always with his face hidden in the crook of my neck or under a hat. We do it to avoid the press attention, considering he is very well known, and the most eligible bachelor that hasn't sunk his dick in every female he meets. Ryker hasn't seen a picture of Aurora either, except maybe one or two but I want them to meet in person. I need my best friend to meet the man who makes my stomach flutter, the man who makes me feel like I'm floating and need not be brought down to earth. And for

Chapter Sixteen

CAELUM’s PovMy wife is making a scene beside me, complaining about what happened earlier this afternoon when I forbid Aurora from leaving Cassian's house. I didn't want her there, I was going to see her tonight, pick her up from Fantasy Elite and drag her to my sex club. But when I pissed her off, it not only got her mad, it got Emelia mad too. That was why I ordered Aurora to stay, if I had let her walk out that gate, Emelia wouldn't have let anyone see peace for the rest of the afternoon. How the dots never connected in my head is beyond me, Emelia always talks about her best friend, Ryker has also mentioned once or twice that he was jealous of the best friend Emelia gained herself. I never would have guessed it would be her, I was aware of the name of her friend but I let it slide, it's a pretty common name. Emelia left Cassian's house with Aurora, after they spent half of the afternoon in the pool, drinking and talking about something that seems to have made them both happ

Chapter Seventeen

(Caelum’s POV continues)“Wait, so this is her kid?!” Cassian gasps. “Rumor has a baby?”Buzzkill, that's what Cassian is. Sending a praising message to Scarlett, I dropped my phone once again. “Yes, she does.”“So she's married? Or at least in a relationship. You're looking to fuck another man's future wife?” he teases, a grin spread on his lips, eyes dancing with mischief.“Getting in her panties is not an objective, I've been in them, nothing special.” “Well, I want to get into her panties, I have no doubts it's special. But come on, seriously? She has a kid?” his grin fades. “I would not guess just by looking at her.” “Wouldn't guess she's a viper now would you?” “Viper?” he laughs. “That woman is harmless, except for when she's performing her act.” I roll my eyes, grabbing my phone once again, I text Aurora to come outside in exactly five minutes.Five minutes later, the car pulls up at Fantasy Elite but Aurora doesn't come out just yet. Fifteen minutes later, she's stil

Chapter Eighteen

AURORA I don't know if it's what I said or what I did but it surely got me into trouble. Instead of going to their club like he had informed me earlier tonight, we were driven back to that apartment he had kept me in the night he had kidnapped me. Maybe it was the name calling? Well, I didn't mean to call him a pervert, he could be one but he wasn't back then, if anything I was the perverted one back then and it's most likely what got me here. Cassian left ten minutes ago, leaving me in the lions den, where I now stand in nothing but my underwear with the lion that intends to consume every last bit of hope I have left staring at me from across the room. I'm nervous, he's quiet, too quiet for my taste. What is he thinking? Is he comparing me to Brielle, his other toys or something much more inappropriate, his wife?Caelum sits on the couch he sat on that night, still in his suit, with the tie now loosened.“Get on the bed.” Caelum orders a second time, and again, I hesitate to re

Chapter Nineteen

CAELUM I promised Scarlett I would be home tonight, and I am. But at what cost? Leaving Aurora passed out in my bed is haunting me, but I know she's safe there, my security team is discreet but efficient, they won't let her notice their presence but they'll not let anything harm her, even when a mosquito aims to bite on her, I'll be essentially notified.My phone lies on the side of the bed where I always keep it, but this time I'm more alert to any vibrations. Scarlett is asleep now, but I reckon when I walked in, she wasn't asleep but pretending to sleep. I could see her eyes fluttering, contemplating peeking at me and not.I'm glad she didn't, I'm wasted, intoxicated in the scent of Aurora's body perfume.Goddammit, Aurora.There's something about this woman, not only something alluring and captivating, but also something dark, and it calls to me, calls to the darkness inside me.I want to brighten it, it's clearly haunting her. Her patterns infuriate me, I hate how she spaces o

Chapter Twenty

EMELIA Love should be easy.But it never is, even when everything appears to be moving in the right direction, some circumstances will smack it into the opposite direction. I hated love, but I also loved love and now, I live it, it's all I can breathe, thanks to Ryker. Ryker healed me from every trauma I didn't know existed within me, and he says I made the demons that lived rent free in his head tea and it quieted them. When I realised that I was falling for one of my brother's best friends, I knew he would have a rant about it. Ryker, Bishop, Caelum, and Cassian have been friends since before they could walk. Well, not in the literal sense but yes, they have and of course, Caelum would presume all his friends saw me like a sister, to which I somehow understood. They were–are a brotherhood, four most problematic men in the city, under the sun, they're simply perfect and when the night unravels, they truly come alive as the men that rule this city from the shadows, the da
