36. Unexpected encounter... And an exasperated Damien.
The car dropped her outside an unfamiliar place. An enterprise she had not prepared to see. Its name made her chew her lips and that particular name came to her mind. Again.
'I am always so paranoid!' Aura sighed at her attitude as she stepped further.
This was her bad habit. Besides being over shy, she was also paranoid. She made many consequences a situation could lead every time she fell into them.
She was doing the same now when she entered through the huge gates of Ferrari enterprise while reading its slogan. She entered her name and reason for visiting in a register that was presented across her at the watchman's cabinet, on a desk.
Don't know why her heart was thumping erratically inside her chest. It was not because she was scared of seeing Damien with more damage but because she hesitated to meet new people. Only if one can sense her fears, they would have justified why she was wa
37. Rosario Ferrari... A friend or someone else?Aurora's PovI wish I didn't come here. I wish I never entered the office building and lost myself into various thoughts.I wish I had not met that bastard Peter, and definitely, I wish I had not bumped into Rosario.Damien's eyes were looking at me. Only me. His posture was stiff. His hands balled up at his sides as he quietly observed me with an accusing gaze. It was a gaze darker than frozen sea, colder than winter precipitation and sterner than an eerie music.I immediately separated myself from Rosario, stepping away from him. Rosario's back was facing Damien so he could not see the dance of exasperation in his blue eyes. But I did. And what I can see was a sour wolf glowering at his prey with hungry, angry and upset glare.As if it was a prey he had not wanted to hunt on... But forced to."Gosh, I am still so shocked. I don't believe my eyes that you are here." For just a second I
38. He can't misunderstand her!Bright azure sky turned black outside Aurora's window. Stars were again assembled together as an army blinking amusingly at the earth below. And here inside the bedroom, Aurora sat on the floor by the support of her bed as she cried.She had been laying there since she entered her room. After Damien dropped her home, he left in the car to somewhere else, leaving her all shattered and dizzy. He left her with insecure feelings and with a thumping heart to cry over something she did not know would ever happen.Aurora locked herself in the room, refusing to see anyone. Even when Madam Martha came behind her following to her room, Aurora pleased her. She asked her to leave her alone as she could not face her. It was only Damien and his emotionless face, and those blazing eyes that remained in her mind.His anger was not unnoticed. He had masked it with a neutral look as if he was unaffected, but deep down, Aura knew he was erupt
39. He knew it!The next morning on the breakfast table, Alpha Damien retired all the maids to some other work as he wished to enjoy his morning meal with Aurora alone. Only Madam Martha stayed given that he trusted her with whatever conversation they were going to have apart from their breakfast.Damien delightfully grinned looking at the meal produced before him. Toasted breads with crunchy peanut butter and omelets. His other favorite, mixed fruit juice was offered to him. He enlarged his eyes in jubilation as there was also some tasty pasta, smelling so good and appealing that he dug into it before anything else.All this while Aura was sitting beside him with a serious look. Irresolution churned her stomach as she was about to tell him what relationship she shared with Rosario.Last night she tried but Damien only took her in his arms and fell asleep. He was very tired. So exhausted that he was softly snoring when they jumped into bed with her naked!
40. Is it the end!Aurora's POVFeeling the weight of a hand on my shoulder, I spun around looking at it.As I lifted my head, my heart skipped beating for a second. It was Rosario. Smiling painfully with accusing eyes. The same look that I had caught on his face before I left his company building that day."Hey Aurora." He smiled from ear to ear but I flinched back feeling uncomfortable.He took his hand back with escalated eyebrows, his smile faltering. Then he looked up at me again to give another forced smiled, trying to show that he was normal.I looked around us to see whether or not he was stalking me. Then I noticed there was a driver standing far away across a Porsche. It might be his. I looked back at Rosario and registered his awful look. He seemed tired.His shoulders were lightly slumped and expressions looked weary. Then I saw he had his passport in his hand. He might just have returned from a trip."Good to see y
41. Saved by an unpredicted saviour."My baby!" Aurora awoke screaming loudly.She batted her lashes in reaction to her surroundings. She was in a hospital room. The back of her left palm had a needle piercing into her vein. She scrunched her forehead but it pulsated with throbbing pain."Ahh!" A wince escaped her mouth and when she raised her hand to touch her forehead, gosh, her eyes watered as there was a bandage on her forehead."My baby? My baby?" She muttered thinking that she lost her child as the memories of the accident came flashing into her mind."MY BABYYY! NOO... NO!" Aurora shrieked.She had not wanted this. This was not supposed to happen. Her baby... She could not lose the baby like that.But it was the only truth as the jerk was hard. The collision was intense which resulted in her loss. An irreparable loss."Noo... My baby!" Her head fell back on the pillow as she cried, clutching the sheet of the mattress on
42. ReconciliationOnce again they were surrounded by a serene stale air of discomfort. Aurora looked away whereas Rosario nibbled on his lips nervously. He wanted to talk but didn't know how to.His eyes cascaded down to her belly that was securely covered with her protective palm.'It was because she was pregnant with Damien's baby that she wanted to get away from me. She thought I would ruin her future.' Rosario closed his eyes as he mused.Damn it, he felt so stupid and crazy.Had he known about her cute little secret she was hiding from the whole world including the father of the baby, he would have assured her that she was safe around him and won't be bothered by the special relationship he assumed they held.Rosario opened his eyes to find her peering at his face. He awkwardly smiled not knowing what else to do.It would have been easier to talk earlier. Now things seemed complicated and he had no hint about how to strike a con
43. A blissful day"Ma, I am sorry." Aurora tried to not cry as she clutched the sheet around her belly tightly in her grip."No, don't talk to me." She suppressed her cries, feeling bad for her negligence."You really hurt me, Aurora." Madam Martha was here in the hospital.A few minutes back she was talking to Aurora in a petrified and concerned tone as she finally got time to pick her phone up post disappearing unknowingly for the whole day.But when Madam Martha was dawned with the knowledge that her car met with an accident and she was in a hospital, she only asked about the hospital she was located in and cut the fall.The next moment she was across Aurora with her red painful teary eyes, expressing her hurt towards her daughter."Which daughter does this to her mother?" Madam Martha stopped Aura from saying anything as she attempted.Her hurt was pasted in the form of paleness on her wrinkled face. The spilling brine fro
44. Is she cheating on him?London,With a release of exhausted sigh, Alpha Damien sat back in his chair. His tired eyes glared at the laptop screen and his slightly trembling fingers hit the keys reluctantly on the keyboard.Since he landed, he has been working endlessly with very few hours of sleep. Almost no sleep.His lips twitched irritatingly as he looked at the notification flashing on the screen of his phone. One of his ex-girlfriends he had long forgotten was messaging him constantly. It started ever since she spotted him in a club two nights ago.He had been there on the request of his English friends. They were college mates. How could they not have a small get together with all the boys?Though there was no time to have fun, Damien anyways made some adjustments and agreed to hit a club with his friends. He had made an effort to not catch any ex-girlfriend's or any other women's eyes, he failed miserably.He had not just ca
