*AURORA*On my way to work, I stopped by the hospital to get on the pills.I could not keep on relying on morning after pills.It was safer to just be on a birth control plan.As I sat down waiting for my turn, I stared at the heavily pregnant woman sitting across from me at the waiting hall.The man beside her, who might be her husband but was definitely her romantic partner because the way he stared at her and the way he kept making sure she was comfortable showed that he was all over her.At some point, he placed his hand on her belly and whispered something in her ear which made her smile.I looked away from them.I was once a lover girl. Picturing this kind of attention from my husband, when I fell pregnant, when we had our children.I wanted to be a good mother, I wanted to always be there for my kids, be someone my children would always find loving and comfortable with. I pictured raising them with my husband in love and harmony.But now, I don’t think I had any love left in me
*AURORA*What did I ever do to have a man like Diego as my birth father?What did I ever do to be cursed like this?!As I drove home, I was burning with rage!Why am I being punished for this?I don’t even know him!When I first found out about this before. Because immediately after it had happened, my birth mother had told Isobel the truth about her real family.When the news about Diego’s murder crime was released back then, it wasn’t linked to me.Even if Hannah had also published news about finding her real daughter back then too, they didn’t directly link me or Isobel to knowing or being related to Diego.But now, everyone knew. Everyone knew how despicable my birth father was.He was all shades of evil.I hated him, I hated him so much.But I still carried his blood and even if I didn’t know him, I felt a sense of responsibility and after I could pull myself together after losing my family, I had reached out to the victim’s family.To the girl’s family. They were incredibly nice
Damon shut his eyes when I placed my hand on the front of his trousers and began to rubbed him.“Ahh.” He groaned in defeat and then he kissed me, his hands on each side of my face as he backed me against the wall.My heart began to pound as he pressed his body along the length of mine.He wanted me as much I wanted him.I could feel it.Yeah, this was what I needed. I needed the sweet highs only he could give me so I could forget about my lows.His lips were on mine again, possessive and needy, coaxing a moan from deep in my throat."Yes, let me hear you"His hand slid down to my waist.I splayed my hands on his chest while his lips continue to savor my mouth.When he released me, we were both panting.He rested his forehead against mine, our breath mingling, both of us straining for air.“You need me?”His voice was as soft as a spring breeze.He looked down at me, the longing in his eyes burning into my soul.“Yes”I murmured.He gripped the hem of my top and pulled it over my head.T
*DAMON*I admired the fact that Aurora was a strong-willed woman but I wished she could rely on me.I wished she could see how much I wanted to stand by her and never let anyone hurt her ever again.But I couldn’t force her.I just hoped that with time, she could trust me and let me do anything and everything for her.Right now, I was glad that I could make her feel better through sex.But she didn’t fall asleep after the first round. For the past one week and some days since we started having sex, she was always sated after one round.I was the one who had to seduce her for more.But right now, she was turning me on again.She kept rubbing herself against me, kissing my chest, running her fingers through my body.And in no time, she got me aroused again."I like your beards"Her fingertips stroke my chin."Really?"She nodded and leaned in then planted a soft kiss at the corner of my mouth, she ran her tongue over my stubble, following the line her finger took earlier.I felt it in my
*AURORA*The following day, I gave Ava a call and asked her out to meet.She sounded arrogant on the phone.”Oh sorry, the CEO of another TV station invited me for an interview today. I’m afraid I don’t have as much free time as you do.”I scoffed.Of course she already knew that I lost the prime-time host position and was made to take a one week break.She could feel that she has won now but I wasn’t letting anyone trample over me anymore.They won’t go scot-free for messing with me.I remain calm with her.”I don’t have time during the day as well, so how about we meet at night. At Roka restaurant, my treat.”Roka restaurant was one of the top upscale restaurant in this town.And I wasn’t surprised when she agreed few seconds later.She was so shameless, after trying to ruin my reputation, she still wants to come dine at a grand restaurant on my treat.She truly disgust me and I wished I had put her in her place sooner.***************That night, I waited almost an hour for Ava.I kn
Everyone’s jaws almost dropped in shock.Most of the people in the room had grew up with Damon in Madrid.And for the past six years since he had been back home, they knew he didn’t entertain talks about marriage or relationship.He had no interest in both.Part of the reason why he left Madrid to come here was because his father kept setting him up on different blind dates and the other reason was because of the resort project.But now, he had a girlfriend?!“Girlfriend? how can you have a girlfriend? How can you do that to me?!”Milena, the girl who had ran up to him yelled.The corner of Damon’s mouth hooked, but his eyes were clear and cold: "What does me having a girlfriend have to do with you?”"Manuel, I'm your fiancée."“My fiancée? I had no idea.”“You know very well that your father thinks the most highly of me, and has already proposed marriage to my family in private, just without announcing it to the public."The corner of Damon’s mouth hooked up coldly: "I can’t remember
Although Ximena looked like a beggar, she had a lot of strength.She fiercely grabbed Carla’s hair and began to beat her up.“Everyone! Come see this ungrateful daughter of mine, I worked hard to raise her, for her to go to college, but she abandoned her parents! She ran away with a man. She had a good life with a man while her father is crippled and unable to leave the bed, she ignored my calls and my texts. She cut off her family for no reason.”People around were attracted to the scene.Someone recognized Carla and hurriedly pulled the two apart.Ximena then sat on the ground and wailed.“What did I ever do to you, Carla? Was my crime birthing you? I worked multiple jobs to send you to school. How could you abandon me because you found a rich man? And now what? You’re a TV host! You do not deserve to be! You’re an evil person!”Carla fell to the ground shivering.Her fear of Ximena had gone deep into her bones, and she could not say a word, but her eyes wrapped in fear, showed a st
*AURORA*I laid on the deck chair in front of the pool in a robe.I had been doing all I could to enjoy my break for the past few days.And so far, I was feeling well rested.Having gotten Carla humiliated as well, I was a bit satisfied. But I didn’t want to think about her again during this one week.I didn’t know being away from work would be so relaxing. I felt calmer, less agitated and I just did everything I wanted to do with my free time.I had just finished swimming and I was currently resting until I felt the sun go down.I opened my eyes and was startled to see Damon sitting on the deck chair beside me and staring at me.I looked around.”When did you get here? You startled me.”How did he move so quietly, I didn’t notice.Or maybe I was too lost in my thoughts to notice.“Sorry. How was your day?”I could tell that he just got back from work. He was still in his suit.“Calm.”I replied, honestly and then stared at him.“I don’t think I’ve ever taken time to thank you.”He grim
Isobel could clearly remember that she had been mesmerized like this when she and Hannah had gotten closer to Damon on his mother’s birthday.She had been too stunned by his looks to speak.She recalled that she couldn’t even say a word to him.He had met a lot of people that day but right now, he recognized her and even called out her name, correctly!What does this mean?Could it be that he was interested in her as well?After having such a realization, Isobel simply couldn't suppress her inner leap of joy.Sure enough, what Damon said next reinforced her thoughts.He said to Sergio,”Sergio, excuse us.”‘Excuse us? He wants to be alone with me?!’ Isobel thought, excitedly.Sergio left the office.Damon looked up and stared at the real daughter of the Diaz family, the lady who got swapped with Aurora.”Miss Diaz, why are you here?"Even if Isobel was losing h
*AURORA*I slept exceptionally well that night.But when I got up in the morning, Damon had already left for the office.I had heard him talk about how the Paradise Resort project has already started.The bids were coming in.The format this time was an open bidding process where three top construction companies were selected by the government.These three construction companies will then be used by Damon to make the final choice.In the end, the final decision was in his hand.Even if I wanted the Sullivans to get the project for the sake of Alma, Jorge, Fabiola and Grandpa Sullivan, I’d not speak in favor of the Sullivans.They should go through a fair process like everyone else.****************DAMON*Sergio placed three documents on my desk.“President, these are the construction companies selected by the government, please take a look."I flipped open the file.
*AURORA*Wanting to please Damon too, I broke off the kiss and made him lie on the bed instead.I reached out and slowly touched his cock, softly grazing my fingers along it.It jumped in my hand, expanding with a spasm.Damon groaned.His reaction making me happy to please him more.I began to brush my fingers across his dick, softly, amazed at the burning heat from it and from the silky softness of the skin over the rock hardness beneath.I encircled the massive girth with my fingers and began to softly stroke it, up and down.Damon was moaning, every sound he made doubled and tripled my own desire.A drop of clear liquid beaded at the tip of his massive head. I moved my palm over it and used his natural lubrication to wet my fingers, then I began to softly caress him again.The slipperiness made it even more sensual, the soft pull of his flesh against mine.“Oh God! You…Aurora.”He was
*AURORA*“The name is quite interesting, but I really can't accept something so valuable."Fifty million dollars was not a small amount.Damon said casually, "If you don't like it, then I'll throw it away." He said making a gesture to open the window.I felt flustered and I hastily reached out to stop him, snatching the brocade box back.Although I knew that he was doing this on purpose, I still had to feel the capriciousness of this manIf I hadn't stopped him, maybe he really might have thrown it.There was certainly no way I would see such valuable jewelry thrown away, much less leave my heart and soul on the streets.I said, "I love it, thank you so much.”And I made a mental note to get him a gift of equal value later on when it was his birthday.Although I also had money but I knew the value of it.And this necklace was of great value."What do you want to do for your birthday the d
*AURORA*“Lucien is yours, yet you look so scared. You’re the one who betrayed me and you’re still the one who knows no peace. Can’t you see how unfortunate you are?I eyes her.“Carla, you have nothing, absolutely nothing to your name. The only thing you have, the only thing you’ve fought for is Lucien’s love. It’s pathetic that it’s the only purpose you have. Imagine someone’s only purpose in life is a stupid man’s love? You don’t want to admit that your purpose seemed to have failed because losing him means losing everything you have. So you’re going to continue like this, worried and unable to sleep because he’s just a confused man.”“He’s not confused. He loves me! You’re the one pestering him! You’re the one disturbing him! You left the house yet you won’t serve him the divorce papers. Give him the papers, I’m sure he’d
Just as his lips were about to touch Aurora’s lips.He heard footsteps.Lucien was shocked and his spine tensed.Perhaps because he was so flustered, he forgot to stand up. He was frozen on the spot.And at that moment, Aurora stirred and opened her eyes.Her eyes widened to see Lucien’s face so close to hers.Their lips were mere inches away from each other’s.And the footsteps couldn’t be heard at the moment because the person had stopped walking in shock for what she had witness.It was Carla.She had seen everything.She had seen Lucien about to kiss Aurora!She moved closer to them.“What the hell?!”She was flaring with anger.A hint of shame flashed under Lucien’s eyes.At this time, he and Aurora were looking at each other, and for a while, they didn't know what to say.Aurora frowned, she had barely slept all night last night and had just fallen into a deep sleep.He had the nerves to disturb her!Lucien’s face was red, and he actually looked like a thief who had just been cau
When they were abroad, Lucien always assured her that she’d be Mrs Sullivan soon.Now, he seemed unwilling to get separated from Aurora.Carla could feel that he was beginning to change, things were changing!She could sense that Lucien wasn’t all over her like before.Carla panicked.She had literally done everything she could to make Lucien hate Aurora!How can he still get swayed by her?!If he were to learn that all that had happened between them was her doing.She would be done for.She couldn't give them a chance to clear up their misunderstanding.She had to get them permanently separated as soon as possible.She had to make Lucien hate Aurora even more and if she doesn’t succeed in doing that, then she had to do something to Aurora.Carla smiled as she began to hatch up a plan in her mind.**********************AURORA*After I got into Damon’s car.I leaned back against the seat and stared out the window.It was irritating and amusing about how shameless Lucien was.Was he se
Lucien looked up at the man.The fury in his eyes converted into shock when he saw the face clearly.He couldn’t believe his eyes."Mr…Mr Dumont?”Damon had already wrapped his hand around Aurora’s waist in a smooth manner.Looking at her, he asked, "We made plans to have dinner together. Should we go now?"Aurora thought for a moment, “Let’s not eat out tonight. I’m craving for smoky albondigas, the ones made by you.”“Okay, then let’s stop by the grocery store, I need to get my special ingredient for it.”Lucien was still in disbelief when he saw the intimate and natural conversation between the two.Manuel Dumont was going to cook for Aurora?!And it seemed to be something he has been doing.Lucien was one of those men who were of the belief that the kitchen was meant for the kitchen staff or a woman.Not a man and definitely not a great man like Mr Dumont.But with the smile on Damon’s face as he stared at Aurora, Lucien could see that he was practically happy to cook for her.Thi
When Lucien hung up, he was still fuming, still finding it hard to believe that Aurora was in a relationship with someone else now.He furiously slammed the phone against the floor.Carla just happened to see him lose his temper like that.Her eyes widened in shock.She walked over and took his arm, "Lucien, what's wrong?"Lucien glanced at her, his eyes clear and cold.Carla felt startled.Lucien had never looked at her with such eyes before.Ever since that day when Aurora played that recording at the hospital, Lucien seemed to have changed.Was he really suspicious of her?No, she had laid out her plans years ago, and it had been hard for her to get to this point, so she mustn't lose the battle.Her eyes pooled with tears in an aggravated manner."Did I do something to upset you?"Lucien’s heart was filled with contradictions as he looked at Carla’s pitiful appearance.For the first time, he knew that Carla might be pretentious.He didn’t know how to feel about the things he found
