Unlike Tristan and Aurora, their older siblings were having a perfect date. First, they dined at a high-quality restaurant, conversing about many things and laughing at some embarrassing stories.After the wonderful dinner, they took a walk in a park near the restaurant. That night, the sky was filled with stars, adding to the romantic atmosphere between them. Adelaide found the perfection of the situation strange. Whenever everything seemed to be going well, something would go wrong.That's when she misstepped and broke the heel of her shoe, almost falling to the ground if it weren't for Griffin, who caught her in his arms."You need to be more careful," he said, smiling as he noticed her racing heartbeat."I can be a bit clumsy at times," Adelaide replied, awkwardly smiling as she distanced herself from the doctor."Let's sit on that bench," Griffin pointed to a nearby bench, and they did so.They sat side by side. Adelaide took off her heel and huffed at the sight of the damage. It
Tristan stood on the escalator, heading up to the second floor, while Aurora ran to catch up with him. She was excited because she hadn't been to the mall in months due to lack of time and money. She didn't care about how she was dressed: a shirt of Tristan's that reached beyond her knees and a coat of the same size. It attracted many looks, especially from men, although she hadn't noticed, but Tristan did.While Aurora observed the clothes in the shop windows, a small group of men looked at her in a blatant manner. Some pointed and licked their lips. This bothered Tristan."Let's walk faster," he said, grabbing her arm and pulling her into the store."Don't drag me like that!" she let go of him and forced a smile at the man who approached to assist them."Tristan!" the man exclaimed with a high-pitched voice, making Aurora want to cover her ears. From the high and exaggerated voice, his bouncy posture, and how he was dressed, she deduced that he was far from being attracted to women.
Aurora was now hiding behind a potted plant, getting a good view of the garden and all the staff serving the guests. She thought she wouldn't be found there, so she screamed in fear when she felt a hand on her shoulder."Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed, placing a hand on her rapidly beating heart. "Seraphina! You'll give someone a heart attack!"Seraphina apologized, "I'm sorry, but what are you doing here?""I'm a friend of your brother, didn't you know?" Aurora replied, while Seraphina watched her suspiciously. "What? I'm serious. If you want, ask him."Curious, Seraphina asked, "Where did you two meet?""At Luna's welcome party," Aurora answered with such conviction that Seraphina believed her. However, she still found it strange to think that her brother and her "colleague" were friends.Seraphina called a waiter when she spotted him, "Please, a glass."The waiter approached and handed a glass to Seraphina, while Aurora turned her face, hoping not to be recognized, but her attempt
As if by magic, Tristan's words came true. The world and the people inhabiting it faded into oblivion for Aurora, and after much hesitation, she decided to enjoy at least a little bit of the wonderful sensation of being kissed by him. It was a breathtaking kiss. Tristan sucked her tongue forcefully, as if he had long desired to feel it, and explored her body with his agile hands, while Aurora ran her hands over his broad shoulders.It was all so good. The shared contact between them was addictive, but before the lack of air caught up to them, Aurora snapped out of her trance and pushed him forcefully, causing him to hit his back against the table, which moved with the impact, emitting a loud noise."Argh!" Tristan complained, in pain."I'm sorry..." she got off the countertop, feeling bad for hurting him, but quickly became annoyed. "I mean... serves you right! You can't just kiss me like that whenever you please.""Then tell me when I can." Tristan approached again.Before she could
On the night of the charity auction, Aurora avoided entering through the main entrance, where there was a red carpet and several photographers. It's not that she wasn't decently dressed to pass through there - she was wearing a white flared dress that accentuated her curves - but only the "important" people could go through there, meaning the rich and the daddy's boys. In reality, Aurora was sure that most of them pretended to care about the children just to have a good reputation.She walked through the event in search of her friends. She stayed like that for a few minutes until she saw Lucca, the aggressive short guy, running towards her."Aurora! I finally found you..." she interrupted him when he started pulling her arm in one direction."I need your help. Actually, the children need you," Lucca said."What do you mean?" Aurora asked, not understanding, but didn't receive an answer as both of them stopped in front of an Asian girl who had a big gentle smile."Aurora, this is Rose,
Adelaide sat on the couch next to her sister, who was changing channels on the television."What's going on with you?" asked Adelaide.Aurora shrugged, but it was evident that her response was a lie. "Nothing. I'm fine.""I know you," said Adelaide. "You're usually very talkative, so when you get quiet and thoughtful like this, something has happened."Aurora, in a slightly rude tone, replied, "I already said I'm fine." Then, she quickly regretted her attitude. "Sorry. It's just PMS."Adelaide's expression softened as she smiled, believing that flimsy excuse. "Ah, I see. I'm heading to the restaurant for some overtime, and I don't know when I'll be back. If you decide to go to Seraphina's place, leave a note for me.""Okay," nodded Aurora, watching her sister leave the apartment.Now alone, Aurora stood up and went into the dark bedroom. She sat on a chair in front of a desk, gazing at several photos of Alex. She couldn't quite pinpoint how she felt. It wasn't necessarily sadness, but
Aurora waited for Tristan's response, and he looked at her with a mixture of seriousness and surprise at her arrival. She started to get nervous and doubted whether he would accept. Maybe that was his plan all along: make her come after him and then boast about it...Her thoughts were interrupted when she felt Tristan take her hand and pull her out of the nightclub, without any explanation. She followed him without hesitation. The prostitute he was talking to before stood there, visibly confused. The bouncers were also puzzled. Some wondered who that girl was, while others memorized her face so as never to prevent her from entering the establishment again. In that area, knowing Tristan was like knowing the president or any other very important person."Get in," Tristan said as he unlocked the car.They got into the vehicle, and Tristan started driving a bit hastily towards his house. Aurora took advantage of those minutes to send a message to Adelaide, saying that she would be staying
It was still very early, the day hadn't even dawned yet. Tristan awoke from his deep sleep, feeling his body heavy and exhausted from the tireless hours of sex from the previous night."Aurora..." he called, but received no response. Only then did he look to the side and noticed she wasn't there. He quickly sat up in bed and looked around, realizing he was alone in the room.Normally, Tristan would lose interest in a girl after sleeping with her, but it was different with Aurora. He wanted to see her again, wanted to kiss her, touch her, and have her over and over again. He thought that after that night, the strong attraction he felt for her would disappear, but it was the opposite – it had only worsened. For the first time, he hadn't lost interest, and for the first time, he felt upset not waking up with a woman beside him the next day."It's just another desire, it'll pass," he thought to himself. He got up, put on sweatpants with his thoughts distant, and left the room. He had inte
