All Chapters of Thorne's Seduction: a dangerous affair: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

AURELIA'S P.O.VStepping out of the shower wrapped in my towel, I sit in front of my vanity table before pulling out my hair dryer from one of the drawers and then blow drying my hair. Staring back at my reflection in the mirror, I couldn't help but think if I was doing the right thing. A part of me believed that I was but then another part of me knew that I wasn't, I wasn't ready for this next step. Nevertheless, I style my hair after blow drying and then coat my face with just the right amount of make-up. Satisfied with my look, I step into my white body con strap dress and silver heels. Spritzing my perfume, I take in a deep breath as I try to alleviate my anxiety. "It's all gonna be okay Aurelia, you love Cooper...heck you've loved him since college so there should be no problem...yeah" I met Cooper when we were in College, he was a friend to my friends boyfriend. My friend Celia and her boyfriend Ralph, his friend Cooper who's now my boyfriend, and I all linked up in a bar/cl

Aurelia's P.O.VI feel a wave of emotions rush through me as I stood alone in the comfort of my bathroom, staring at the stick which showed two very clear lines indicating I was pregnant. This couldn't possibly be happening, I had been so sure that I had used a morning after pill after that night. No no no this couldn't be happening, what would I tell Cooper? Would he even accept it? It had been exactly two weeks since the dinner I had with Cooper and his parents and we hadn't been on the best of terms, safe to say I couldn't bring up the news of this pregnancy to him. Just then, I hear the sound of my doorbell so I place the pregnancy test on the sink and head for the door. As soon as I see who's on the other side, I let out a sigh of relief to which she hurriedly pulls me in for a hug as she closes the door behind her."Hey what's wrong Lia, you sounded terrified on the phone. Are you okay? Did anything happen to you or Cooper?" Celia's questions overwhelm me and I'm unable to utter

AURELIA'S P.O.VLaying on bed on my left side with my palm supporting my head, I can't help but nibble on my finger while staring out into space, the quiet bustle of the city reaching my ears while lost in thought. I had three months to tie the knot with Cooper, unconsciously, my eyes dart towards the direction of the shiny diamond ring sitting pretty on my bedside table, involuntarily I exhale deeply. As I continue to mule over the recent happenings, my alarm rings out snapping me out of my thoughts. Sluggishly, I drag myself out of bed making my way into the bathroom. Resting my palms on both sides of the wash-basin, I stare back at my reflection in the mirror and can't help but sigh again. I looked awful. Perhaps going to work would do me some good, take my mind off things. Taking my time, I slip under the shower allowing the cold water droplets soothe my nerves, washing away my worries for a moment. I spend about 20 minutes under the shower, just enjoying the serene calmness and

AURELIA'S P.O.VIt had been three days since Thorne's visit to the hospital and to say I was unperturbed would be an understatement of the season. If his aims were to ruffle my feathers then he had been more than successful.*Although, I cannot imagine how much more there is to see after that night Aurelia.* Those were his exact words, words which haunted me, kept me up at night which could only mean one thing. He remembered, and I had a feeling he wasn't gonna let it slide so easily.Needing to take my mind off things, I decide to get a pet to keep me company. I couldn't always depend on Celia to keep me company knowing she had her own life to manage, so I was going to get a pet....my very own baby.Soon enough, I had arrived at the pet shop and approached the lady behind the counter with a polite smile to which she returned."Hi, welcome to Milly's pet store. What can I do for you?" She chirped."Uh i'd like to get a pet.""Alright, do you have any particular pet in mind? Cats, dogs

THORNE'S P.O.VStepping into the house I let out a sigh of relief upon noticing that the lights were off which could only mean one thing, Caroline was most likely asleep and I couldn't be more thankful for that especially after the day I had. Having to run a multinational business was no child's play, I loved my job but there were good days and then there were those days. Today being one of those days. I trudge up the stairs quietly, careful not to make any sounds so as not to wake Caroline only to be met with with a rather astounding surprise upon entering my room. Seated on one of the couches in my room was Caroline with a glass of wine in hand, the bottle of wine on the table as well as another glass. She was clothed in a silk red spaghetti-strapped nightdress, the red silk coat drooping slightly exposing her shoulder."Caroline," I speak, shutting the door behind me, "To what do I owe the surprise?" My words holding no other emotion except tiredness, I needed to sleep. Walking in
