All Chapters of Aurora's Secrets: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Aurora walked out of the doors, her chin tilted high and her shoulders squared, the intercom buzzed loudly again and the metal parted for her. Once she spotted her car, the confidence melted and her legs trembled, she would've landed on the ground if it weren't for Calvin's quick save.He frowned, eyeing her with a concerned look, "Are you okay?"Her tongue felt too heavy to lift so she simply shook her head.Calvin sighed, muttering to himself about hoe he knew this was a bad idea from the start. His arms swept her feet from the ground and he carried her into his arms, walking silently until they got to the car.She has no idea how he did it but he managed to pull the door open singlehandedly whilst still carrying her and gently placed her on top the chair. As he moved to close the door, she reached out to him,"Don't tell anyone about this," Then she added with a bit of desperation, "Please?"He seemed to contemplate on the matter but nodded after a while, "Your secret is safe with

Aurora sat upright with a drained sigh, she rubbed the heels of her palms against her eyes and stretched her limbs, they popped with a satisfying sound and she sighed again. Her eyes darted towards the wall clock, the slender finger of the second ticking slowly.She reached for her phone on the bed stand, three missed calls and two texts, one from Natasha and the other from Mason. Aurora felt guilty for not responding to any of their calls or messages but she honestly didn't know what to say to either of them.Besides, maybe they felt disgusted with her and wanted to keep their distance. It would make sense, everyone thought she was just like every other socialite who indulged in wine and debauchery. She was just lucky enough to still retain the title of being one of Chicago's princesses. The prima ballerina of the twenty-first century.It was laughable really, that her mother believed her entire life to revolve around that title. She threw the device on the bed and flicked on the bed

The moment Aurora walked into the academy, everyone's heads turned towards her. At first she tried to act unaffected but that became increasingly hard to do when people began coming out of their classes, whispering and muttering behind their palms.Thankfully, the dressing room wasn't far and she picked up the pace. When she slid into the large room and noticed that there wasn't anyone in here except her, she released a grateful sigh and the proceeded to quickly change out of her normal clothes. Aurora deftly tied her pointe shoes and after making sure that her hair was still secured in the bun that she'd put it in, she walked out of the room.The contest was still going to hold in the theater hall so she marched in the direction. When she arrived backstage, she noticed Louisa practicing her moves and that caused her to raise a brow,"How long have you been here?"The blonde startled, nearly toppling over her own feet, "Aurora!" She called with a gasp, her eyes wide in shock.Aurora s

"You got the role?"Aurora nodded, glancing towards her friends who bobbed their head along with her. Her mother's lips split into a large grin, her silver eyes twinkling with excitement.She jammed her palms together, "Oh, I always knew you would make me proud." Aurora stiffened when Miriam pulled her into a hug, "This calls for a celebration, we have to throw a party as soon as possible."Her ears perked up at that and she quickly pulled herself away from the hug, "What about tonight?" She queried hopefully."Tonight?" Miriam cocked a brow, looking between her and the others.Mason slipped in, nearing her, "Yes, Mrs Rochester, it has been too long since anyone has thrown a party in Rosedale, think if it as you opening the season."Miriam fell silent, her thinking face coming on and Aurora crossed her fingers behind her back. Then she smiled, her mouth growing wide with elation,"That's a wonderful idea, Mason!""Agreed," Natasha chipped in, "But it has to be big, a night to be remem

"So your flight is scheduled for two days from now, are you prepared, darling?"Aurora looked up from way Rosa was mincing and smiled at her dad. Several days had passed since the whole party fiasco slash her confession and the entire town had been set ablaze, she'd turned into a hot topic and now she couldn't go anywhere without being swarmed by reporters. Her father had suggested travelling out of the country and laying low for a while and she bought into the idea. Besides, this was her chance to finally get away."Sort of, I don't really know" She chuckled grimly, passing the bell peppers towards the older woman, "I don't feel that different but I do know I'll miss home."Harry smiled warmly at her, bobbing his head in understanding. Rosa nudged her gently, winking in a playful gesture,"You should travel out, I think it's about time you got away from the house. No offence, Mr. Rochester."Her father raised his hands in the air, "None taken."She chuckled softly, smiling at both of
