CHAPTER 5

Chapter 5.

Only if words could define her but that would be an insult to her beauty. She was perfect. Her shining blonde hair, blue eyes, sharp chin and that small nose made her look like the angel from the heavens. Liam Knight didn't believe in Angels, heaven or hell. 

But seeing her, he could turn into a believer. The girl had everything Liam liked, curves, beautiful curves in all the right places. His hands twitched to touch that soft glossy skin. 

His throat swelled in need. It's not like he had not seen a beautiful woman, he had but on her, Liam felt the need to lay his claim on her.

Maybe marriage with her will not be a bad option. 

Liam tilted his head, his current mistress was clinging to his hand. He went closer to her ear and whispered: "you see that girl, Grace?" 

Grace followed Liam's gaze and nodded. "Yes, sir."

"Good, her name is Aurora,  go and start a conversation with her, respectfully. Compliment her about her beauty or whatever you girls do and then call me to join you. Understood?"

Grace nodded. "Yes sir."

Liam liked her till now, Grace was the kind of woman Liam liked. She did what she was asked to do. No questions asked. He hoped that his seductress would be like her who likes to use fewer words. Unnecessary chattering was not something Liam tolerates. He took a sip of his champagne and watched his mistress starting the conversation with the woman who made him desperate for her body.

"You look beautiful, Aurora, just like a princess. The dress suits you…"

The woman who, Aurora, didn't even know complimented her. Aurora raised her perfectly shaped eyebrow and gazed at the woman who was standing in front of her with a glass of sparkling champagne in her hand. 

One of those! Everyone wanted to be in the picture with me. These social climbers! 

Aurora nodded at her. "Thank you, Miss…" she asked her name and the woman smiled. "Grace Brown."

Aurora returned the smile politely at the woman when she saw an old woman passing by her. She nodded at her, once the woman walked away to wherever she was going and then paid her full attention to the woman standing in front of her. 

"I don't have to look like a princess, Miss Brown because I am a princess and I suggest you try some other way to gain the attention of the celebrities here…" she pointed out and the girl's face flushed in embarrassment. 

"Excuse me," she whispered and took her to leave from there. 

Aurora turned back to her friends who were both giggling, Champagne glasses shaking in their hands. 

"That was so bitchy of you, Aurora," Emily let out, trying to control herself from laughing out loud.  Aurora rolled her eyes. 

"These social climbers are everywhere, I mean go get a life girl," Aurora mumbled, taking a sip of her non-alcoholic champagne while eyeing her friend's alcoholic drink enviously. 

"Don't even think about it, I won't handle your drunk ass, again, Aurora. The memory of that day still creeps me out." Susan muttered. 

Embarrassed to the core, Aurora looked down. You heard it right, Aurora Kings was embarrassed over that car incident. 

"Don't remind me of the day and let's do some shopping. I mean look at all these designs. The exhibition has beautiful options for us. Let's robe it," Emily tried to change the topic and bring it to the present moment. 

"Not at all, I can design better than these. But still, it's The Belle…" Aurora put out a little over - confidently and why not, she was Aurora King, daughter of a billionaire. Her dad could buy everything she wanted in a snap of his finger. 

So she was not wrong when she said that she was a born princess.

Both Susan and Emily nodded. "We know that darling," They air-kissed Aurora.

"Okay now girls, straighten up. Kevin is about to come and you my dear Aurora, need to talk to him, we need him for our brand," Susan ordered.

Aurora cleared her throat, put on a polite smile once again and waited for THE BELLE'S head designer to take the grand entry. 

People clapped, Aurora and her friends being one of them, everyone congratulated him for yet another success as he received the designer of the month award.

Susan pushed Aurora slightly, taking the hint she moved further in the designer's direction and introduced herself. 

He smiled at her, "Ah! Ms Kings, hope you liked the designs." Kevin asked, a smile not leaving his face. 

Aurora nodded. "They are amazing, Mr Rawls but have you decided anything about the offer I made to you?" 

Kevin sighed. "I have already told you about my offer, Miss Kings. I won't join you."

Aurora didn't like the way he replied but she kept quiet. "You are Ethan King's daughter, the world is under your feet. You don't need anyone if you want to open your brand but my suggestion would still be the same. You need to study jewellery design first. Rest is up to you, best of luck for your future," saying that he took his leave.

Aurora kept staring at him. Her pride was hurt, how could he deny her like that. 

"What did he say?" Susan asked, coming near to her. "That he won't join our brand. He advised me to study jewellery design first. Can you imagine that?" She snapped, snatching the glass of hard liquor from Susan and gulping it in one go. 

"Aurora, you can't handle hard liquor."

Aurora was not listening, "you just see, he had to see my designs, I am sure he would accept my offer after it." 

Susan shook her head.  "He declined twice, Aurora."

Emily joined them both. "Oh no! Don't tell me he declined, Again." 

They both glared at her with murdering eyes. "He did!" Both said at the same time making Emily snatch two glasses of Cocktail from the passing server. 

Aurora snatched one from her. "I need it today. To hell with consequences." She muttered and again gulped it. 

"Wait for me here," Aurora again went to meet Kevin one more time and again his answer was the same. 

"Arrh!" Aurora screamed silently under her breath. Her eyes went to the lasing server and she picked a glass of some alcoholic drink and took a large gulp.

On the other hand, Liam was enraged when Grace told him what Aurora said. He fisted his hand and walked in search of Aurora. 

"Mr Knight? It's so nice to meet you here," It was the mayor of BC. Liam smiled and politely shook his hand. 

"Mr Wendell, nice to see you here," His eyes searched for Aurora but couldn't find her and he couldn't walk away from the man. Apart from Mafia, Liam knight was a legitimate business or so he wanted people to believe in it.  Finally, after the man left. Liam's eyes wandered in search of Aurora again and he found her alone with a drink in her hand. 

He started walking up to her and found Alexandrios in-between. "Bud?" 

"Alex, introduce me to her." He ordered his friend who looked at Aurora and was stunned. 

"Liam, she is.."

"I know who she is and I want you to introduce me to her, now."

Alexandrios didn't like Liam's tone but he could see there was something on his mind so he ignored it. "Come."

"Miss King, you look beautiful…" Aurora heard the words again and she was irked. 

Why can't they just stay away from me?

"Buzz off!" She muttered without even glancing at the owner of that voice and walked away from there, leaving Liam and Alexandrios standing there. 

"Guess the woman was not in the mood of compliments…" 

But Liam was not listening to his friend. His eyes darkened in fury. The vixen had just insulted him. 

He was furious. Liam fisted his hand and walked behind her, he came to meet her and meet her he will. End of the story!

Aurora was in the back of the gallery, there was a small garden. She kept staring at the liquid in the crystal glass. Her friends would be searching for her but she didn't care, not at this moment at least. 

She wanted to call her dad and ask him to make Kevin accept her offer but no, she would not do it but she would call him and ask him to arrange for a meeting with Kevin. "Arrogant owl!" She sniffed.

"Bad day?" She heard a voice and got irritated again. Another one of her admirers.  She knew she was beautiful and she didn't need anyone to tell her that. She was tired of these flatters.

Aurora turned. Her vision was swirling around but she still managed to be sober at least in her voice. "Get away from me, don't you get tired. Go get a life!"

Liam was stunned. "I came to start a conversation…" he still tried to be polite.

"Oh fuck off dude, I am not interested in your stupid conversation or your ugly face so get the fuck away from me." She snapped in anger. 

And Liam had enough.  Done playing gently with this vixen. He grabbed her hand tightly, "Shut up!" His eyes turned dark.

Aurora was in a rage. "Ha! How dare you touch me, you bull?"  She shouted and threw the remaining drink on his face. Liam instinctively closed his eyes and his grip on Aurora loosened a bit. But he didn't leave her hand. The girl needed to be taught a lesson for insulting Liam Knight. 

"Get your dirty hands off me, arrogant owl,"  She snarled, attacking his face with her sharp nails. 

"F**k" he cursed as her nail poked in his right eye. Liam's grip on her hand loosened a little and she pushed him away from her, Liam lost his balance and landed straight into the water fountain, and Aurora laughed seeing him like that. The sound of her laughter pierced through Liam's ears as if someone had poured hot lava into them. 

"Aww! Poor dirty pig!" She mocked him "don't try to come near me again or will scratch your eyes out with my nails only," saying that she ran away from there, leaving an angry Liam behind. 

Liam's nose flared in anger. He wiped his face with his hand. His one hand was still on his right eye. "You spoiled brat you will be punished for this,. Severely punished."

He decided then and there that the vixen was going to be his wife even if he had to paint the streets of whole Canada red with blood.

I will make you mine. Mine to punish and mine to pleasure, Wife! Till death do us apart!
