Todos os capítulos de Thorne's Seduction: a dangerous affair: Capítulo 21 - Capítulo 30

THORNE'S P.O.VSitting on a high stool around the counter, my fingers trace the edge of my glass filled with whiskey, gripping it as I bring it up to my lips and take a sip. For some reason, sleep eluded me as thoughts swarmed my mind. Thoughts centering around a particular female, Aurelia. The news of her pregnancy still left me shaken. A part of me feared that the child was mine, but what proof did I have? There was a possibility that she had been with Cooper after me. But what if? What if, by a twist of fate, I happened to be the father of her child? What would happen then? What would happen to my marriage, which I had managed to lay a footing for us to start over? What would be left of the relationship between my son and me? And most importantly, what would become of Aurelia and me? Given my reputation, it's safe to say that there'd be huge repercussions on both ends.Rubbing the creases on my forehead, I took another sip just as I heard footsteps approaching. Taking a glance, I w

AURELIA'S P.O.VShifting uncomfortably in my seat, I swing my foot in rapid motions as I impatiently wait for the obstetrician's report. After a few seconds of waiting, the doctor finally pays me some attention, shifting her attention from the laptop screen to me. She offers me a kind smile."My apologies for the wait; I have your results.""And? Is there any problem?"She shakes her head as she flips through my file."Not at all; in fact, both you and the baby are very healthy. Considering it's your first pregnancy and you're still in your first trimester, I'd say you're a very lucky woman. According to your reports, it states that you're eight weeks gone, yes?" I nod in response to her question."That's good, and what about the father of the baby?""He wasn't able to come; he was occupied with work, so he was unable to make it, but he'll be here for my next appointment." Lies, I had deliberately not told Cooper about my appointment, and it had nothing to do with the fact that we wer

AURELIA'S P.O.VPulling up at the location, I notice he had given me an address to a hotel. Now that's definitely sus; why would he request to meet at a hotel? Could it be? No, it was definitely not possible; he wouldn't be stupid enough to call me over for sex, or would he? Shrugging away the thought, I hand over the fare fee to the driver, who all but gave me a stink eye. Yeah, screw you too, Dickface. Flipping him the bird, I step out of the car into the streets, feeling the cool breeze sting my skin immediately. For a brief moment, I regretted wearing the gown as it threatened to expose me.Taking a deep breath, I walk into the building. I head straight to the reception, sighting a blonde lady who seemed engrossed in whatever she was working on."Hi, I have a meeting with Mr. Mikaelson. I was told to get directions from you." I said it as politely as I could. The blonde looked at me, scrutinizing me before giving me a polite smile."Miss Thompson, I presume?" She inquired, raising

THORNE'S P.O.VDuring the course of my drive back home, my mind was filled with thoughts of one person. The fiery-beauty who I had come to know as the soon-to-be mother of my unborn child. Our child, I could nearly laugh at the thought. In as much as I dreaded what was to come with this new-found information if it were ever leaked to the open, a part of me—a rather sick part—felt the slightest bit of joy knowing she carried my seed in her womb. It was stupid really and any reasonable man would be shit-scared out of his mind and disgusted at the thought of bearing a child with his soon to be daughter-in-law, but I wasn't a reasonable man. Over the past few days, I had grown more and more attracted to Aurelia even when I struggled to make things right between my wife and I. Fuck, Caroline. What would I tell her? How long till she knew the truth? And what about Cooper? What would become of my relationship with him? Surely this would all end disastrously, as the forbidden affair and secre

THORNE'S P.O.VI watch with a smile as Aurelia breaks into a fit of laughter. We had met up today to talk about baby names and to just well...be friends. Figured it would be plain stupid to co-parent in secret and behave like a family in public if we couldn't find common ground. This had been our third meeting so far, with the hospital visit included and it hadn't been so bad to say the list. I'd say Aurelia was starting to warm up to me and I wasn't gonna lie, that made me happy. I liked her as a person. Apart from her beauty, I felt she was a good person, the type of person who would definitely not cheat on their partners so whatever must have driven her to make that one mistake with me must have been something seriously weighing her down. That mistake which I have regretted at the onset, but slowly the regret had been fading away."Hey," The dark haired beauty nudged my thigh, her smile still radiantly etched on her face, "why are you smiling? And you're looking at me like that." S
