Aurora's POV
The figure leaned in closer, its grip closing around my neck like a vice. I was pinned to the bed, unable to move or escape. As I struggled to breathe, I recognized the familiar scent of Lord Logan's cologne wafting through the air. "What’re you doing here?" Lord Logan's low, husky voice whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. What did he mean by that statement? I was brought here by his servants and guarded tightly by his men. I tried to respond, but my voice was barely audible, muffled by the pressure of his grip on my neck. I could feel his hot breath on my skin, and his eyes seemed to bore into mine, searching for something. His grip tightened, and I felt a surge of fear course through my veins. I was trapped, at his mercy, and I had no idea what he'd planned for me. I don't want to be devoured by this demon, who is as cold as ice, ruthless and cunning as the devil. He was good loooking but he is heartless. I don't want to be a commodity that could be used at will and dispose 2hen used. I tried to push him away, kicking him with my legs and hitting his chest with my hands. I was using all my efforts but it seems to trigger the demon in him as he effortlessly grabbed my hands with one hand and pinned it above my head. His hand closed around the delicate fabric of my nightgown, and he pulled it down, his movements rough and insistent. I resisted, my body tensing in fear, as I tried to cling to the shreds of my dignity. "Let go of me right now you kidnapper and a rappist" I shouted trying to disgust him, I preferred to be beaten by him than to be devoured by him. "Is that a command?" He asked with a dark chuckle as he stare deeply into my eyes, I looked away focusing my gaze on everything in the room but his eyes. "Just let me go, I don't want to be yours" I said more like a plea this time cause he was too strong for me to handle. "What, trying to be innocent?" Lord Logan's voice dripped with sarcasm, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Weren't you here to seduce me?" His words cut deep, and I felt a surge of indignation. What would I gain from seducing when all I want right now is to escape from his clutches. Before I could respond, His lips curled into a sneer, and he leaned in closer, his breath hot against my skin. "What are you trying to do? Don't you dare touch me you filthy disgusting man" I keep on raining abusive words on him expecting him to let go. But I was wrong my harsh words only ignited the fire in him, he pressed his thin lips against my cutting my words short. He lips were demanding and devouring, licking and teasing mine. His tongue was daring as it try to pry it's way into my mouth. I refused to open up for me as he bite me softly, I feared were this kiss was leading to so I bit his lips so hard until I tasted the metallic taste of blood in my mouth. He released my mouth as he licked the blood off his lips with his tongue "You are very sassy, you're just exactly my type" he said in a low seductive voice. His words sent a shiver down my spine. I couldn't help but shiver at the way he looked at me, like I was a puzzle he was eager to solve. I tried to push him away, but he held me firm, his eyes locked on mine. "You're not like other girls," he whispered, his breath hot against my skin. "You've got fire in your veins. I like that." He leaned in closer, his lips brushing against my ear. "I think we're going to get along just fine." I tried to push him away again, but he just chuckled and held me tighter. His grip on my nightgown tightened, and I felt the fabric rip as he pulled it down further. I was trapped, unable to escape, and Lord Logan's eyes seemed to gleam with triumph as he gazed at me. "You're a clever girl, aren't you?" he whispered, his voice dripping with malice. "Trying to pretend you're innocent, but I know the truth. You're here to please me, and that's exactly what you will do." I felt a wave of revulsion wash over me, but before I could respond, Lord Logan's lips brushed against mine again, silencing me. Suddenly, he received a call, then got off me. I lay there, frozen in relief, as the tears continued to stream down my face. I had been so sure that I was about to lose my innocence to him, that I would be forced to become his mistress. But then, just as suddenly as it had begun, everything had stopped. As I caught my breath and tried to calm down, I heard his parting words: "I don't want to meet you here when I come back." He didn't even look at me as he spoke, his back already turned as he walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.Aurora's POVThe ride back from the underground party was silent. Logan sat beside me in the sleek black car, his jaw sharp and clenched, his eyes staring out into the night as if searching for answers in the shadows. I, on the other hand, was drowning in questions.What kind of man had I married? I had glimpsed something tonight something ruthless behind those cold, aristocratic eyes. But then again, I had seen that same darkness the moment he forced me into this marriage.The city lights flickered past, reflecting off the tinted windows. My hands twisted nervously in my lap, the wedding band on my finger glinting mockingly in the dim interior.When we arrived home, I followed Logan into the mansion, my heels clicking on the marble floor like a countdown to my own doom. The staff bowed as we passed, their expressions carefully blank. It was as though they were trained not to see or perhaps too afraid to look.In the privacy of the bedroom, I finally broke the silence.“ Lord Logan,”
Aurora's POVThe car rolled to a smooth stop, its tinted windows shielding me from the chaos outside. I didn’t know where we were going until the heavy bass of music vibrated through the ground beneath my heels. Lord Logan stepped out first, his tall frame cutting an intimidating figure under the dim glow of neon lights. He extended his hand toward me, his expression unreadable as always.“Come,” he said simply.My heart pounded as I placed my hand in his. The instant our skin touched, an electric tension surged through me part fear, part something I refused to name. He guided me out, and the chill of the night air hit me like a slap before we descended a narrow flight of stairs.The door at the bottom creaked open to reveal an entirely different world an underground casino buzzing with life. Crystal chandeliers cast a golden glow over velvet draped walls. Men in tailored suits and women in glittering gowns crowded around poker tables and roulette wheels, their laughter mingling with
Logan was there, tall and commanding, his attention fixed on the watch strapped around his wrist. He tapped his fingers impatiently, every line of his posture sharp with authority. Then he turned and when his eyes landed me, he froze for a brief second, I thought I saw surprise flicker in his gaze. He looked at me as though measuring me, as though seeing me for the first time. My heart was hammered.But just as quickly, his expression hardened again. He straightened, slipped his watch back onto his wrist, and said simply, “Let’s go.”“Where to?” I asked, confusion slipping into my voice.His eyes snapped to mine, sharp and cold. “What did I say about questioning me?” His tone was low, laced with warning.I swallowed hard, my pulse quickening.From everything I’d observed so far, one thing was clear: Lord Logan had a temper, one that burned quickly and without mercy and I was already standing far too close to the fire.I stayed quiet and followed him like a puppet, I so much hate this,
A while later, just as I began to calm my racing thoughts, a sudden knock startled me. My heart leapt to my throat. For a moment I hesitated, debating whether to answer, but curiosity got the better of me.When I opened the door, my breath caught.Diva stood there. Her perfume reached me before her smile did, It was sweet, suffocating, and deliberate. Behind her loomed two tall men in black, their broad shoulders blocking the hallway light. They looked familiar, too familiar. I’d seen them among Lord Logan's men before.Why were they with her?“Hello again,” Diva purred, her eyes gleaming as she stepped forward, forcing me to retreat into my own room. The men remained at the door, silent and stiff.“I… wasn’t expecting you,” I managed, my voice barely above a whisper.“Of course you don't darling” she replied smoothly, glancing around my room as though she owned it. “You’re quite comfortable here, aren’t you? Living under Logan’s roof, breathing his air, eating from his table.”There
Aurora's POVAs I bit on the the piece of food in my plate. I could see a lady entering from the corner of my eyes. Truth be told she was down to earth, tall and slim. She was very fair that her tiny long legs stand outI continued chewing the food in my mouth, but I couldn't help but stare at the woman. Her elegance was captivating, and she carried herself with confidence. Her long, curly hair cascaded down her back like a golden waterfall, and her piercing green eyes seemed to sparkle in the dim light of the room.She strode towards me with a warm smile, her high heels clicking on the marble floor. I felt a shiver run down my spine as her gaze swept over me, her eyes narrowing slightly."Hello," she said, her voice dripping with sweetness. "I am Diva. And you are...?"I swallowed the food in my mouth, feeling a sense of unease under Diva's piercing gaze. There was something about her that didn't quite add up, something that made me feel wary."Who is this woman?" I asked myself inwa
Logan's POV "I am sorry," she mouthed, breathless. I glared at her, my anger still simmering, but her apology caught me off guard. "Why are you eating like that?" I asked again, trying to keep my tone neutral. She looked down, her cheeks flushing. "I have not eaten all day," she said quietly. My anger began to dissipate, replaced by concern. What had happened to her? "Sit down, let's eat together, I am not mad at you anymore, eat then we can discuss after" I guided her to the table, pulling out a chair for her. She slowly sat down, still looking down, her eyes welling up with tears. I think I had made her lose her appetite, because she only took small bites. As much as I loved the fear in her eyes, I hated the glistening tears in her eyes. They made me feel like I'd crossed a line, like I'd hurt her more than I intended. I reached out, gently wiping away a tear that rolled down her cheek. "I'm sorry," I whispered. "I didn't mean to scare you." She looked up at me, her eyes searc
