Aurora

Exactly as the clock strikes eight, everyone is seated at the breakfast table. Punctuality here is not a virtue, it is a law. The faint chime of the grandfather clock echoes through the garden, signaling the beginning of another perfectly orchestrated performance.

The table stretches long and gleaming beneath the sunlight, surrounded by manicured hedges and faces polished to perfection. Here, even the seating arrangement speaks of power. Nothing is random; every chair represents rank, lineage, and influence. The largest table, of course, belongs to the Blakes and a few others who are considered significant enough to share this privilege.

Many people would kill to sit here, to be part of this carefully guarded circle.

But I would give anything not to be.

Unfortunately, my place is secured by blood. The one thing you can’t escape. The one thing that binds tighter than chains. I hold a position many envy, even within the family. Especially within the family.

  • Blind Alpha And His Unwanted Mate   Chapter 23

    AuroraI wake up earlier than usual, the faint light of dawn barely cutting through the curtains. My room is quiet, too quiet, but inside my mind, thoughts are already racing. Today isn’t just another morning. It’s one of those mornings. The kind where perfection isn’t just expected... it’s required.My feet touch the cold marble floor, and I take a slow breath before moving toward the vanity. Every movement feels deliberate, measured. Because here, one small mistake isn’t just noticed... it’s counted, recorded, remembered.This house doesn’t forgive flaws.Our rules are simple, and brutal. Breakfast is at eight. If you’re one minute late, you don’t eat. If you miss it without reason, you face silence, the kind that feels heavier than any punishment. It’s the same for lunch. The same for dinner.But the worst part isn’t the rules. It’s sitting with them three times a day. My family.I start getting read

    AuroraEven though I could talk to him forever, we both begrudgingly hang up. The second the call ends, the silence feels too loud , like it’s mocking me. The room is the same, but it isn’t. The air still hums with him, the echo of his laugh, the way his voice dipped when he said my name.And just like that, I start missing him. Instantly.It’s ridiculous. I just heard him. I can still hear him. The memory of his tone hasn’t even faded yet, and still... it’s not enough. It’s never enough.I sit on the edge of my bed, staring at the phone like it’s a forbidden relic. Because it is.That’s when the trance starts to break, the Lucas haze that somehow makes the rest of the world blur out. And when reality seeps back in, it brings the weight I’d pushed aside.There’s a problem.A huge one.The kind that doesn’t just vanish if I ignore it long enough. The kind that could ruin everything.The kind that looks exactly like the phone in my hand.This little, innocent-looking thing... black,

    LucasThe phone feels heavier than it should, like it’s holding more than plastic and circuits. Like it’s holding a possibility, the possibility of hearing the voice that silences all the chaos in my head.I sit at the edge of my bed, elbows on my knees, the weight of anticipation brewing in my chest like an unfamiliar ache. I’m not used to this feeling. I am Lucas. I don’t anticipate... I decide the outcome. But this… this is different. Because no matter how many outcomes I decide, this one depends on her.The first ring starts. A sharp inhale escapes me. The walls of my room feel too close, the silence too thick. The sound of the ring cuts through it, relentless, each chime hitting something raw and alive inside me.Come on.Second ring.I drag a hand through my hair, my grip tightening around the phone. Every muscle is tense, alert, strung tight like a bow ready to snap. I’m listening for something that isn’t even there yet... her voice.Third ring. She won’t answer. The thought

    LucasShe’s everywhere.Even now, when the night is quiet and the rest of the world has moved on, she’s still here. In my head. In my blood. Aurora.I’m sitting on the edge of my bed, the lights from outside leaking through the blinds and drawing long, silver stripes across the floor. My hands are clasped together, elbows on my knees, and I can still smell her smell tainted with her perfume on my shirt.I should be asleep. I should be helping Anastasia. I should be focused on the reports scattered across my desk, the ones about the rebel activities, the coded messages, the rising threats. But none of that sticks. Not tonight.Because there’s something about her that doesn’t add up.The guards. The car. The way they appeared out of nowhere like a tactical extraction team. The kind of efficiency that doesn’t belong to ordinary people. No random girl gets whisked away like that, not unless she belongs to someone powerful.And those guards weren’t your everyday hired help either. Their

    AuroraThe car hums softly beneath me, the low purr of the engine blending with the rhythmic thrum of my pulse. I press my forehead lightly against the cool glass of the window, watching as the town begins to fade behind us. The familiar streets of the town, the little cafés, the flower stalls, the sound of laughter spilling from shopfronts, slip away like watercolor bleeding into gray.I bite my lip. The further we drive, the heavier the ache inside me grows. Lucas’s face keeps flashing in my mind, the way his eyes softened when he looks at me, he makes me feel like I am the only important person in this world. My heart flutters at the memory.I shouldn’t have kissed him again. I know that. But how could I not? The way he looked at me, like I was something rare and worth fighting for, it made the whole world tilt. It made the walls I’ve spent years building tremble.The driver doesn’t speak. He never does. There’s only the soft hum of the tires rolling over asphalt and the occasional
